it’s time to make those big picture visions come true
You’re a creative soul
And you're sitting on an actual goldmine of insights, ideas, and musings from 2024. But right now, those brilliant thoughts and hard-won lessons are scattered across multiple journals, random sticky notes, and more screenshots than you'd care to count. (Guilty. 👀)
You KNOW there are powerful patterns at play and experiences to learn from, if you just had the time to comb through it all. But even if you did, where do you even begin?
You don’t really care about new years and resolutions and self-optimizing… but you do love a Monday morning, a fresh beginning, and the sparkly energy that accompanies a threshold like January 01. 🪩 🕯️ 🥐
You want to step into the new year with clarity, intention, and a sense that your energy is working in your favor – but traditional planning methods don’t support your buzzy brain, and you need a framework that honors your big picture visioning while directing you step by step through the reflection process that will actually make those big picture visions come true.
there's a better way to end the year than burning out or checking out
Reflective Preparations is your permission slip to opt out of the binary and choose the third option – to pause, reflect, and plan in a way that works with your creative brain and your biggest dreams, not against them.
Get your 50+ page workbook, delivered immediately, and begin reflecting on this year and preparing for the next. Was $199, now only $139
“I have gotten so many more responses to my newsletters since I started implementing the TAI insights, and have so many people signed up to hear about my offers.” — SV
There's a lot of chatter this time of year about what you should do
…and like the rest of us creative sorts, you're probably feeling caught between two impossible choices
→ Push through the exhaustion to "finish strong" – you're almost there!
→ Sacrifice your creative energy to hit arbitrary end-of-year goals!
→ Enter 2026 already burning out because you blasted through the warning signs!
Option 1 – Hustle Harder, Now Is Your Time
→ Give up on reflecting or planning altogether because where would you even start
→ Bet on inspiration magically striking in January when you ‘have a little more time’
→ Risk repeating the same patterns next year because you skipped the last step of the integration process
Option 2 – Check Out Early, Better Luck Next Year
But say there was a third option, a collection of easily digestible guides that gently support you in:
→ Making sense of scattered creative insights (screenshots included)
→ Honoring your natural rhythms and energy patterns (even if you aren't totally sure what they are yet)
→ Gaining a deeper understanding of the stories you're telling about your life, and introduces new perspectives to support who you're becoming
→ Creating a grounded creative vision for this next year of your life that actually feels like you (and not the version of you that takes three workout sets & a tuba on vacation, just in case) AND is something you could easily bring into being
→ Finally understanding what stories you're telling yourself about your life and the small steps you're taking that are working for (or against!) your greater sense of peace, purpose, and satisfaction.
A thoughtfully designed, and very cute, workbook guiding you through four essential phases
Section 01: Pause & Reflect
the archive of now
You will…
→ uncover the richness of your year and come into relationship with its highs, lows, and all the in-betweens
→ sift through the artifacts of your life – photos, journals, memories – and piece together the mosaic of 2025
→ anchor yourself in the present moment, naming what’s here, alive, and true
→ trace the quiet threads woven through your days to reveal connections you might have missed
→ shift your perspective and explore your life through a new lens
→ embrace archetypal wisdom to reveal the approach and energy you want to carry into the new year
→ celebrate the small joys, quiet delights, and moments of meaning that define your story
Stage 02: Find Your Frequency
The Rhythms Revealed
You will…
→ name the rituals and routines that ground your days
→ honor what has carried you this far, and choose which anchors to tend to in the year ahead
→ illuminate where your energy flows – and where it falters
→ discern what nourishes you and what drains you, harmonizing your energy for more ease and alignment
→ trace the tides of your year, honoring the wisdom of your personal seasons
→ uncover the patterns that shape your creative flow, letting them guide your plans for the year ahead
Section 03: Step Forward
an emerging self

Stage 04: Bring it to Life
echoes of alignment
You will…
→ soften into the care and support that amplifies your capacity for the life you’re creating

Hey, you can call me Eli.
As an Expressive Arts Therapy graduate turned creative business coach, I've spent years studying how people grow – not through rigid formulas, but by honoring their rhythms, stories, and unique creative process.
What I've learned:
Reflection isn’t just about looking back; it’s about gathering present moment insights in order to move forward in a way that feels right.
Your rhythms – messy and imperfect as they may seem – are powerful guides.
The best plans aren’t linear; they’re layered, flexible, and deeply personal.
There’s wisdom in what you’ve already done, even if you can’t see it yet.
Every creative journey is different, and yours deserves to be honored as it is.
This is why Reflective Preparations isn’t just another planning framework. It’s an artful process of weaving the lessons of your past year into a future that feels aligned, intentional, and truly yours.
“Want to step more fully into your work, while remaining true to yourself every step of the way? Eliza is the person to walk beside you.
Eliza is a delight to work with and is extensively knowledgeable about business and profitability — on top of that, they’re deeply skilled at creating a supportive space for growth. They point me back to my values, my heart, and my power as a creative human at every step.”
— Leah Rupp │ Astrologer & Coach
Here’s my promise to you:
No rigid resolutions.
No forcing yourself to fit into someone else’s vision.
No endless planning for the sake of planning.
No pressure to have it all figured out right now.
Instead: We’ll create a process that aligns with how you work, honors your seasons, and makes space for both clarity and curiosity. Because building the life you want starts with learning to trust yourself.
Helping creative people see the patterns, possibilities, and power within their lives? That’s where I thrive. Let’s step into 2026 together.
Well, what are you waiting for?
I built Reflective Preparations because I believe in the transformative power of intentional reflection and the art of gentle, purposeful planning.
This isn’t about radically changing who you are or creating a perfect blueprint for 2026 – it’s about stepping into your next year with clarity, connection, and a renewed sense of possibility.
