The Spark File is a nurturing kick in the ass to spark your creative life. I couldn’t be more grateful. I credit The Spark File so much for opening up my eyes to what the creative possibilities are. I just thought of myself as an actor and a singer, and that those were my lanes and that was what I did. And it had never occurred to me that I could make my own work.

If you have a creative goal, a dream, a vision - and even if you can’t articulate it to yourself - The Spark File will help you bring that dream or that creative goal to fruition.
The Spark File really helped me overcome creative boundaries that I had put in place for myself. Some of those boundaries were “someone else has already done this” or “who do you think you are?” Those creative boundaries were my own imposter syndrome and The Spark File really gave me the tools to push beyond them to see my full creative potential.

Thanks to The Spark File, I’ve learned to be in the world as an artist instead of hiding. The Spark File was truly a revelatory experience for me. It changed my life. Susan and Laura have created something here that I feel is timeless and powerful. What I’ve learned from The Spark File, I’ve taken out into the world and shared with other people and it’s incredible what I get back. So I feel like The Spark File is a movement. There’s a ripple effect and it’s affecting the world. It is affecting my world for sure.

The Spark File is a diverse community of creatives that provide the scaffolding, foundation, and freedom to explore your own limitless creativity. To be among this very diverse group of creatives who are pursuing their own individual creativity really invited me to not have to fit into any particular mold or definition. I am a creative. We all are.

Laura and Susan are brilliant. They are heart-full, brilliant artists and entrepreneurs. In many ways, I’ve built my business in a similar model to The Spark File and I think that’s by design and that’s very purposeful because I believe in what they do and how they do it. They bring together really magical humans. Their ability to be a magnet for like-minded people who are after similar creative pursuits is unmatched. I don’t know that I’ve ever seen that in any other corner of the creative world.
Susan and Laura really care about your creative wins and I think the dividends on that are endless.

I would encourage anyone that is curious about The Spark File to trust that it is going to be a life-changing experience - not only from what you get from it, but from what you give to it.
After spending time with The Spark File, I think that a life is not truly lived without tapping into your creativity.

PROCEED WITH CAUTION…
If you’re not interested in overcoming creative blocks and making things that matter to you, this is NOT for you. Give us 1 hour a day for 5 days. We'll share the strategies we used to go from stuck and frustrated to free and fully self-expressed creatives. The same strategy that has helped hundreds of others achieve the creative success, self-expression and lifestyle they have always dreamt of — while remaining fiercely rooted in making meaningful, authentic work that matters to them.
Fed up with burying your creative impulses? Ready to finally start bringing them to life… in JUST 5 DAYS?
CONSIDER YOURSELF WARNED: YOU WON'T LEAVE THIS PROGRAM THE SAME CREATIVE AS YOU ARE NOW.
Here’s a Peek At The Magic
That’s Waiting For You Inside THE BRAVE CREATIVE:
Day 1: Longing Leads the Way
Explore your deepest creative desires
and define your creative destination
Monday, May 13, 2024 at 7pm ET
Do you have a longing you’ve held deep inside? Something you’ve been dreaming of making? A novel, a musical, a company, a creative practice? To arrive at our desired destination, we must know where we want to go.
Let’s go spelunking into the cave you fear to enter. (SPOILER: It holds the treasures that you seek!) We’ll explore your deepest desires. Then, you'll pick a destination for your adventure.
We’re here to tell you that finishing your creative project IS possible. You can do it if, together, we chart a course to your desired outcome.
In this session we’ll guide you to a clear creative vision… X marks the spot, and longing leads the way.
Day 2: Farewell to Failures’!
Letting go of past creative wounds
and learning to travel light
Tuesday, May 14 2024 at 7pm ET
To begin any adventure, we must leave our current comforts (and much of our baggage) behind. In this session, we will say goodbye to our past creative wounds - we won’t be needing them on this trip.
We'll give you proven techniques to "bless and release" the comfort zones, excuses, fears and perceived ‘failures’. Say good-bye to the things that have stopped you in the past!
This is a new path we are forging, and we’ll need to travel light!

Thursday, May 16 2024 at 7pm ET
You may be thinking, "I know smart creatives don’t go it alone. But, how do I find travel-mates who make the trip safer, more fun, and inspired?"”
Who do you want to have your back as you traverse the creative plains? Who do you want packing your parachute before you take a leap? Who do you trust to fill your oxygen tank before you plunge into the depths?
Having the right people beside us can make all the difference every step of the way. Think about it. Trying something risky is more fun with the right people.
You might seek supportive friendships or dynamic collaborations. Or, you might be on the lookout for a group of like-minded adventurers. In this session, we'll share secrets to finding and keeping healthy creative relationships. We'll also cover the tools you need to find supportive, energizing people. You'll need them to finish the journey.
Day 5: Illuminating Your Path Forward
Keeping the fires burning all the way to completion
Friday, May 17 2024 at 7pm ET
We’ve reconnected to our destination and identified our ideal travel companions. Now how do we keep the flames of our creative campfire burning?

The Spark File is a program more impactful for me as an artist than my 3 degrees. Susan and Laura have created a course for continuing creative coaching that centers compassionate care and connects a celestial community of cerebral and centered creatives.
Elizabeth Gentner
This program changed my life. I will never be able to express how profound the experience was. It really brought my creativity back to life, at a time when it was gasping for air. The Spark File is not therapy, but it does have healing qualities. I really was someone who thought I could go it alone. Finding The Spark File community completely shifted my perspective.

What Other Creatives Have Said About
Susan, Laura and The Spark File...
I need a group like this to give me the kick in the ass I need to start making the things I want to make and do. Everything about the last six months has just been phenomenal and game-changing and I can't wait to see where our adventure takes us next.
Chris Pappas
The Spark File has changed me in ways I didn't know needed to be changed. It has reminded me, it has tweaked me, and it has opened me. It allowed me to do something for me, in such a way that anything else is impossible. It was just so incredibly important, the thing that maybe saved me from being completely lost to myself.
Sarah Lappano
Committing to this group was an acknowledgment that I matter and I'm allowed to take up space in this world with my creative passions and interests. As two wise souls once said, smart creative people don't go it alone!
Andrew Cole
The Spark File is a creative utopia.
