A guided workshop to move ideas out of your head and into action. Bring the idea, leave with momentum and next steps.
Most of us don’t lack ideas.
They live in our heads, sketchbooks, Notes apps, saved Instagram posts, half-written docs, and quiet “someday” thoughts. The real difference between an idea that stays stuck and one that starts to exist isn’t talent or clarity, it’s execution.
Start the D*mn Thing is a guided workshop designed to help you finally begin the idea you’ve been sitting on. Not by perfecting it. Not by over-planning it. But by giving it space, structure, and support and actually starting.
This workshop is about moving from thinking to doing. You’ll work through prompts and exercises that help you clarify what your idea really is, break it into something manageable, and take the first real steps toward bringing it to life.
You don’t need to have it figured out. You just need to show up with the idea.

### What You’ll Work On

  • Naming the idea as it exists right now (not the perfect version)
  • Understanding what’s been holding you back from starting
  • Breaking the idea into smaller, buildable pieces
  • Identifying what “starting” actually looks like for this idea
  • Taking action during the workshop, not later
  • Leaving with a clear next step and momentum

This can be:

  • A creative project
  • A business or side hustle
  • A class, workshop, or offering
  • A portfolio piece
  • A personal experiment or pivot
  • Anything you’re ready to stop circling and start building

### Who This Is For

  • Creatives, designers, artists, writers
  • Business owners and founders
  • Students and early-career professionals
  • Anyone with an idea they’ve been sitting on too long

You don’t need a finished plan. You don’t need confidence. You don’t need permission. You just need the idea.
