The creative revolution you crave lives here
crave
Where creative people remember how to think for themselves, tell the truth, and make work that participates in shaping the future.
300+ artists, writers, founders, therapists, parents, architects and thinkers, the people who never even considered themselves creative, from 39+ countries (and growing) practicing creativity as leadership. As counter-culture.
Creative Living is a global app, community, writing platform, somatic resources library and creative practice space.
And, you’ve never seen anything like it.
This is the alternative to consumption-based, advertising-led platforms.
Creative Living is a creativity-based and community-led one instead. The app you open when you want to create, not scroll. Daily writing prompts, somatic practices and a creative sanctuary where your half-formed thoughts matter more than your polished posts.
Twice a year, we get together for live virtual intensives. Between those live online rounds, the practice continues with guest panels, monthly circles, community connection, peer feedback, global IRL events and supper clubs, and an ever-growing library of energetic practices and writing tools for making work that holds complexity without collapsing.
Other spaces teach
you how to create.
Creative Living reminds
you why you must.
What is
Creative Living?
Creative Living isn’t something you complete.
It’s something you live inside.
Creative Living isn’t a course. It’s not a challenge. It’s not a flash-in-the-pan dopamine boost or a quick creative fix. It’s a long-term practice space, studio, sanctuary — all inside an app — to build a relationship with your creativity that will outlast the trends, the burnout and the bullshit.
Inside, you’ll find:
- A private, global community that prioritises creative connection over performance
- Daily writing prompts and practices to keep you moving without pressure
- Somatic & nervous system resources to help you feel safe expressing again
- EFT tapping, deep visualizations + embodiment exercises to rewire the parts of you that still fear being seen, your potential, your deepest creative dreams or the relationship to creative practice itself
- Live roundtables and deep discussions that feed your brain and refill your soul
- Creative writing circles and monthly workshops so you never have to create alone
- Seasonal themes to guide your practice and honour the rhythms of real life
- A library of on-demand replays, practices and prompts to dip back into when you need a hit of truth or inspiration
- The creative community all us artists and creators need to flourish
Make work that matters to you, before it matters to anyone else.
And build a creative practice
that survives the algorithm, the doubt, the mess and real life.
Here we create work that's unmistakably ours, without the pretence, the comparison, or the noise.
You don't need to be better before you deserve this.
The version of you that exists right now is worthy of creative practice. Of making work that matters. Of using your time to write your dreams into reality.
Creative Living isn't here to fix your creativity. Because you were never broken to begin with.
You're just ready.
Ready to stop waiting for permission. Ready to make work that's unmistakably yours. Ready to practice the skills required to articulate what comes next. Ready to use your creativity to shape reality, not just respond to it. Ready to stop obsessive self-surveillance, stop waiting for permission and start trusting that your voice matters, creativity matters, fulfilling work matters, now more than ever.
You've been sold that lie a thousand times, that there's a more healed, more optimised, more together version of you out there somewhere, and THAT version gets to write, create, spend time on work that matters.
That's bullshit.
The purpose of creation isn't the outcome.
It is the act of creation itself
that changes our lives.
Creative Living became such an essential part of how our community lives, reflects, and creates that we built it into an app.
Next up: Barcelona, Berlin, London.

Creative Living Transformations
Sabrina found creative liberation
It's impossible to capture the essence of Creative Living in one paragraph— you just have to live it.
That's exactly how Lois and Maia designed it: with love, generosity, and just the right mix of structure and flow. Workshops, a workbook, live meetings, a Notion dashboard–it has everything, but in a way that feels spacious, never overwhelming.
The real magic is the community. It's a space of light, but not the kind that just hugs you— it holds you accountable. Bold, compassionate, unafraid. It pushes you forward, one step at a time, in a way that feels both safe and expansive.
If you want to live more deeply, connect with your craft, and experience creative liberation— this is for you. You're not ready at all. And you're 100% ready.
I'll be here for Round II and every round after!
edila wrote the first pages of her memoir
Before Creative Living, I'd never consider myself "a writer". Now I am writing a memoir.
1. If I didn't take this program, I wouldn't have a Substack.
2. Flight Plan (group program) wouldn't exist (at least in the way it does).
3. The concept for my Mentorship, Homecoming, wouldn't exist.
4. I'd still feel like a boring/dulled down version of myself (this part killed me because IRL my humour/wit is one of my most-cherished attributes).
5. I'd still feel like creating and showing up from a place of deep lack "and that's for other people, not for me".
6. I'd still be following all these random rules and strategies because "it worked for them".
7. I'd still say "I'm not a writer".
The cost of not taking CL would have been endless.
@CBMEDITATES REACHED 300K FOLLOWERS WITH HIS POETRY
I must confess: I’ve been a part of many groups and communities before, but never before has my heart cracked open quite like this.
Never before have I felt this rawness, this embrace of vulnerability. A few transformations have unfolded since joining this space, and I wanted to share them with you.
I’ve begun writing more deeply and embracing my raw, authentic voice. I used to shy away from sharing about Tantra because of its often misunderstood reputation. But I’ve started writing consistently, and many of my recent posts have gone viral, and I’m connecting with incredible souls daily.
When I decided to intertwine Tantra with creativity a year ago, I lost followers rapidly, and my Instagram engagement plummeted. But now, sharing unapologetically has brought life and connection back to my work.
I feel more excited than ever to explore and write about the wild feminine sensuality and rooted masculine courage - these two ideas are breaking the walls on my IG! :))
Haley experience profound shifts
Creative Living changed everything about how I write and create.
Before this program, I was trapped in self-censorship, constantly watering down my voice to make it palatable. I was creating from strategy instead of soul, afraid to take up too much space with my words. Six weeks later, everything shifted: I write daily without resistance, I've started a Substack, I'm working on my first poetry book, I'm sharing stories I've never dared to voice before.
Most importantly? I found my real voice. Not the polished version. Not the acceptable version. But the raw, powerful, truth-telling voice that was waiting to break free.
This isn't just a writing program. It's a permission slip to unleash your creative power. It's a container for transformation. It's an innovation to let your words change things.
natalia reconnected with her expression
I was not only writing more, but dancing, cooking, and just exploring life with more creativity and pleasure, with more intention and openness.
What Creative Living has meant for me is a way of reconnecting with myself in many different ways.
They key for my experience was the beautiful balance of mental and philosophical exploration and the body/soul explorations.
It has helped me be more fully myself. Recognizing the censorship, the masks, the shadows that were hiding around creativity and also equipping me with tools that help me show up as the version of myself I am aiming for. It has helped me be more brave and tender at the same time.
nina experience profound shifts
Creative Living transformed my relationship with art and self-expression.
Initially, I struggled with feeling voiceless and hesitant to share my work. Through the program and community, I've experienced a profound shift– I no longer feel ashamed of my art or pressured to fit and 'artistic persona'.
While doubts occasionally surface, I'm embracing my unique creative voice. The program helped me rediscover myself and reignited my passion for writing, leading me to start a Substack. I'm continuing to work through the materials, excited to see my confidence grow further.
Your creative practice is how you shape reality.
Not metaphorically. Literally. The stories we tell become the worlds we live in. The questions we ask become the conversations we have. Your work, when it's true, complex, specific, brave, changes what's possible for everyone.
But that requires practice. Discipline. Stamina.
Not just talent. Not just inspiration. The actual skills:
⊙ Thinking clearly when everything is ambiguous
⊙ Holding contradiction without collapsing
⊙ Articulating what you're FOR, not just what you're against
⊙ Writing precisely enough that others can find you
⊙ Creating without extracting
⊙ Positioning yourself in the analysis
And there's never been a space designed for THIS.
For practicing creativity as LEADERSHIP. As social participation. As the discipline of future-making.
Until now.
We weren't taught how to tell the truth
We were taught how to be palatable. To perform. To keep the peace. To make it make sense to someone else before it makes sense to ourselves.
We learnt how to overthink, how to self-edit, how to silence the parts of us that didn't fit the mould.
And now…
We've forgotten what original thinking even sounds like.
The internet has trained us to think in someone else's language. To make work that sounds like everything that came before it. To absorb aesthetics that aren't ours. To optimise for individual relevance instead of collective contribution.
You're making work that sounds like everyone else because you can't tell which ideas are actually yours anymore.
But here's what's actually happening:
You're censoring the best parts before you even start. Waiting for your work to sound safer. Spending more time consuming than creating.
You've put your creative practice on hold, waiting for the right time, the perfect conditions, for life to calm down enough to focus.
But your creativity isn't a luxury you get to after everything else is handled.
It's the practice that makes you capable of handling everything else.
When you stop creating, you stop thinking clearly. You stop feeling alive. You stop shaping your reality.
Creativity, art, expression isn't self-indulgent. It is essential.
The world needs people who can think clearly when everything is ambiguous. Who can hold nuance without collapsing. Who can articulate what comes next, not just react to what is.
Your creative practice is how you do that.
Through devotion. Through the daily practice of:
05
01

04
This is why Creative Living exists.
Not to fix broken people. But to give ready, creative people the space, practice, and community to make work that changes what's possible.
Every artist who stops performing and starts creating from truth, that work ripples.
Every writer who builds the courage to say the thing no one else is saying, that opens a door for others.
Every person who learns to think for themselves shifts where we're all headed.
What becomes possible when you prioritise Creative Living
Because you don't just need another productivity hack. You need a practice. A rhythm. A relationship with your own voice that can weather anything. You need the kind of community that will back you through it all.
You need a space that is intentionally designed for your creative exploration — not just the perfect end result.
You create the things you never plan to publish. You have conversations no one else will have. You tell the truth on the page and in real life.
You don’t create for claps, clicks or consensus. You create because this is how you live. You create because somewhere deep down you know our work is good. Your message is important. And now is not the time to be quiet.
Inside Creative Living, everything shifts.
You stop asking "Is this good?" and start asking "Is this true?"
01
We're not here to make you a better writer, painter, photographer, artist, creative (insert your own). We're here to make you braver at being yourself. Through daily practice, weekly deep dives, and a community that holds you accountable to your own becoming.
Your creativity becomes a daily conversation, not a special occasion
02
Think of it as your creative operating system — daily prompts, somatic practices, writing challenges, creative remembering. Not another course in your inbox, but a living ecosystem that grows with you and reminds you, every day, why you’re even drawn to create in the first place, while respecting your natural ebbs and flows of inspiration.
You build a body of work that reads like evidence of your evolution
03
An app full of guided excavation. Optional full-year membership for those ready to make creativity their primary relationship. Because transformation doesn't happen in isolation — it happens in practice, in community, in showing up especially when you don't feel ready.
Meet the Creative Living Workbook—the workbook that broke the internet.
"How do we take this practice off the screen and into people's actual lives?"
When we created Creative Living, our guiding question was simple:
The answer became 150+ pages of rituals, prompts, philosophies, frameworks, sensory writing practices, somatic exercises, and questions designed to shake the dust off your creativity and get you telling the truth again on the page and in your life.
The first edition became a reason to write again. A container to come back to when the noise outside got too loud. Hundreds of creatives around the world printed it, shared it, lived inside it.
And now we've written Edition Two.
Every year, we release a new version of the Creative Living Workbook. Reimagined. Deepened. Evolved alongside the community.
And as long as you're in the platform, you get the most recent edition for free.
This is a living practice that grows with you.
broke
Why we call it "the vortex"
This is not another container. It's a playground.
We witness a level of support and momentum that turns notes and drafts into full essays and shared pieces, and loose thoughts into form.
You hear the term "live community" everywhere, but what happens collectively in Creative Living can't quite be put into words.
Creative Living is a way of being, and a process of becoming.
We call it a vortex because the energy and momentum created by the collective, kick everyone into a wave that continues far beyond the programme.
Your creativity and untamed expression thrive here
Imagine a space where your wildest ideas get to come out to play without the pressure of a specific reaction or business outcome.
A space where your creativity is untamed, your voice is welcomed regardless of the algorithm, and your expression isn't edited for someone else's comfort.
Not just a practice, workshops, or a course sitting in your inbox. This community is a sanctuary for powerful creative energy.
Here, you don't quiet your voice, dilute your edges, or second-guess your brilliance. This is a space designed to hold you exactly as you are, a creator in the middle of discovering, experimenting, and evolving.
Life After Creative Living
What's inside the Creative Living App
Think of this as your creative operating system. A luxury gym or spa for your creativity. Netflix for your soul except instead of mindless consumption, we give you everything you need to come home to your own creativity and expression, instead.
This isn't just content you passively absorb. It's a living, breathing ecosystem designed to transform how you create, think and express. And get you back to expression, safety in visibility and creation more frequently, more quickly and more enjoyably.

the community
Dedicated spaces for:
Live Calls
Between our two annual intensive, live rounds (where we meet weekly), we host monthly guest panels with voices that actually matter. Not influencers doing promotional tours. People doing real work - poets, activists, tantra teachers, trauma experts, trans creatives, artists creating through conflict. These aren't polished presentations with slides. They're intimate Q&As. Real conversations. The kind of tables with the kinds of voices that don't usually get a seat. So we're building them ourselves.
The coming conversations:
January: making work that matters
Lois & Maia
Making work that matters is our January kick-off session on what it means to create with integrity in 2026. Not “content plans" but the real work that has weight. We’ll talk about how we choose what to make, how to keep our attention from being swallowed by the chaos, and how to create from integrity instead of constant reaction.
february: creating in complex times
Karli
Creating in complex times is a conversation for anyone trying to stay creatively alive when the world feels intense. We’ll explore how to make work with integrity without bypassing reality or collapsing into overwhelm and what it looks like to contribute something real when it matters most.
march: the art of being misunderstood
@thewellbeingscientist
This panel is a conversation on creative resilience and intellectual sovereignty: how to keep making work that’s true (not easy), how to hold nuance without collapsing, and how to stay standing when your voice meets someone else’s lens.
This season's guest line up:
Chandresh Bhardwaj + Arielle Estoria

Tools & Frameworks you'll discover inside the Creative Living Library
Why the "weird bits" you keep deleting are the only parts worth keeping and how to trust them even when they don't fit the aesthetic or sound like what's trending
The exact moment your imagination became algorithmic and the practice that excavates where your thinking got flattened so you can reclaim what's actually yours
The difference between creating from aliveness vs. performing from anxiety and the somatic practice that returns you to genuine creative impulse when you've forgotten what it feels like
How to write like you might still be wrong making assumptions, missing something important, theorising what others survive and being precise about your uncertainty without losing your voice
Why your nervous system keeps you circling instead of creating and how to rewire the pattern that mistakes safety for stasis
The practice that dissolves comparison before it metastasises into paralysis because someone will always do your idea first, and you need to make it anyway
What distinguishes work that participates in cultural discourse from work that merely replicates approved narratives and how to trust your perception enough to articulate what you alone are seeing
Why discipline collapses but devotion lasts and how to make creating feel like sacred relationship instead of extractive task
How to make work that spreads not because it panders, but because it touches something real enough that people cannot stop thinking about it
Meet your hosts
Hi, I'm Lois.
Writer. Strategist. Reluctant poet. Creative instigator.
Here, I bring everything I know about messaging, creative discipline, self-expression, and the power of well-timed silence.
I’m not here to teach you how to “use your voice.” I’m here to help you trust it and build a relationship with your creativity that stretches far beyond the algorithm.
I graduated with a first-class degree in journalism. I’ve ghostwritten books. I’ve written for major publications. I’ve worked behind the scenes with global brands, award-winning agencies, and some of the biggest names in the online space helping people turn raw ideas into movements that matter.
But the work I’m most proud of isn’t the stuff that went viral. It’s none of that. It’s the writing I’ve done at my kitchen table with a sleeping baby in the next room and a lump in my throat, still deciding whether to say the thing or bury it.
Because for me, writing isn’t just *what* I do. It’s how I come home to myself. It’s how I tell the truth before I’m ready. It’s how I participate in a world that keeps asking us to choose palatability over presence.
Hola, I’m Maia.
Writer. Kundalini teacher. Tantra student. Woman in love with possibility.
In Creative Living, I guide you into deeper relationship with your body, not as a machine to optimise, but as a portal to truth, vitality, and expression. We work with somatics, breath, movement, and energetic frameworks to soften resistance and rebuild trust in your internal creative rhythm.
In a nutshell, my job is to make "feeling" safe again, because that's where your best art lives.
For the last 10 years, I’ve been exploring the subtle but powerful connection between our nervous systems, our creativity, our ability to build a life we dream of and our sense of self. Through my work as a Kundalini teacher, tantra student, global brand designer and business mentor, I’ve learned that creative expression isn’t just a matter of mindset it’s a matter of *energetic capacity*.
The seed of my work is to show you the possibility to expand your capacity to HOLD more, and as a bi-product, call in more while doing less.
Most people aren’t creatively blocked. They’re dysregulated. They’re frozen in survival, chasing safety through perfection or invisibility, and wondering why inspiration won’t come.

The sustained practice that changes everything
“Lois and Maia’s Creative Living is an example of a TRUE movement. It changed the landscape of the online creative space. It pushed us to reevaluate our roles in it. It influenced countless new conversations to be born from the mindsets it shifted — MINE INCLUDED.”
– xanthe appleyard
This is a movement.
A rebellion against the pressure to optimise, perform, and sanitise. A sanctuary for nuance, contradiction, truth.
A revolution in how we relate to our voices.
You don’t have to go viral to matter. You don’t have to be polished to be powerful. You don’t have to wait until you feel ready to write what’s true.
You just have to begin.
What you’ll learn in the new workbook
- How to write without sounding like the algorithm is holding a knife to your throat
- The difference between content and creative expression — and why you feel dead inside when you confuse the two
- How to build a creative rhythm that doesn’t collapse every time life does
- The myth of the “ideal writing / creating time” — and how to create work even when conditions aren’t ideal
- How to explore new ideas without immediately trying to monetise, explain, or justify them
- Why your next big breakthrough might come from the writing you never show anyone
- The quiet rituals and practices that help your creativity survive a world that never stops talking
- How to cultivate *taste*— not just productivity — and create work with depth, texture and your own unique flavour
- Why play is not optional, and how to take your art more seriously by taking yourself less seriously
- How to write through contradiction, complexity, and nuance without diluting your message
- The creative cost of “trying to get it right” — and how to make work that’s honest instead of impressive
- What it means to build a body of work — not just a pile of posts — and create something that lasts
- Why your creativity isn’t just part of your life — it’s how you shape your identity, your integrity, and your impact
What you’ll walk away with:
- A stronger relationship with your voice, not just in public, but on the page and in private
- A sustainable rhythm of creative practice that isn’t shaped by performance or pressure
- Writing that matters to *you* first
- More courage to speak clearly, share honestly, and create work that reflects your real values
- A living body of work (even if no one else ever sees it, but we’ll encourage you to use it and put your work out into the world)
- A deeper sense of self-trust, discernment, and creative resilience
- The knowledge that you’re capable of every creative dream that swallows your subconscious, with the tools and creative resilience to bring it all to life
This is what happens when you stop waiting for permission and start listening inward.
