They tell you to "find your voice" when your voice was never lost. It was buried. Under politeness, perfectionism, and the pretence of being a creator instead of the actual practice of creating.

The creative industrial complex has been selling you solutions to problems 

 unproductive. 

They offer you systems when what you're craving is chaos, mess, the wild unpredictability of true creative expression. They tell you to "be consistent" and that is not a strategy. They tell you to "show up more" but you do and nothing changes. They tell you to "share more of your life" but you don't particularly want to.

They promise you productivity hacks when what you need is permission to be

MORE TRANSFORMATIONS

This isn’t just another space to write more or free your voice: it’s a space where you experience feel creative liberation. Creative Living gave me my tribe, my people, and may be one of the first places I have felt true belonging and where I felt a true belonging of my voice to me.

Creative Living made me not only believe but deeply feel that my voice and my words have weight, even if the only person that ever hears them are me.

KAYLEIGH FELT CREATIVE LIBERATION FOR THE FIRST TIME in her life

I'm not just "more creative" because of it, but I am now open to allowing my creativity to move through me, to shift me, to reveal more possibility. 

I came to Creative Living thinking my voice lacked that je ne sais quoi and “left” not just feeling but knowing that my voice, the weird, wild, freaky, strange, raw, real analogies, stories, and words that pour out of me want to be witnessed.

Creative Living fundamentally changed how I am in relationship with my creativity.

FOUNDERS, WRITERS, BESTies

We are Lois and Maia

Creative Living started in 2024 as an 8-week “course” on unedited self-expression, but there's a point where the work you create starts creating you. 

Creative Living wanted to be the practice space we never had. The one where there is a seat at the table for everyone. Where you stand tall in your truth. Where the creative process starts in the body, and you learn how to read the somatic intelligence of your expression.


Throughout our lives, we’ve seen how the stories we tell become the worlds we live in. The questions we ask become the conversations we have. The work you make, when it's true, specific, brave, changes what's possible for the people who find it.
But that takes practice. Not inspiration. Practice. The kind of practice most people don't have a space for.


And that’s how Creative Living was born: as the practice space that allows your honest expression to find you again.

We built Creative Living because we believe your creative practice is how you shape reality. Not metaphorically. Literally.

Inside the Creative Living App

Dedicated spaces for sharing new ideas, unfinished thoughts, feedback, and the kinds of conversations nobody else is having. Creating in a world that feels broken. Having real impact while protecting yourself. Staying in the room with complex feelings when someone disagrees with you in public.

the community

Writing prompts, exercises, gentle invitations and frameworks for writing through complexity, articulating what you're FOR (not just what you oppose), positioning yourself in the analysis, creative play, and making work that could only exist because you exist. 

THE EXPRESSION LIBRARY

The Energetics Library

Guided deep-dives into specific challenges: The Art of Being Misunderstood. Writing The Future. The Creative Revolution. Publishing Challenges. Revelations Practice. Foundations. And more being added constantly.

Collections

Safe, easy invitations back into the body and onto the page. Morning rituals to anchor you in creative intention before the world pulls you elsewhere. Evening rituals to close the day with reflection and make space for yourself.

AM/PM RITUALS

Longer, immersive experiences designed for deeper exploration once or twice a month. These are the ones that rewire how you relate to your creativity, your voice, and your work.

KEY PRACTICES

Somatic practices, nervous system expansion techniques, proprietary visual soundscapes, meditations and visualisations. Where we work at cellular-level blocks to open the channels back up. And you learn how to stay in the room with your work when resistance shows up.

Included with your membership are our infamous seasonal live rounds - 8-week live intensives with weekly calls to rebuild your relationship to creativity, find the ideas that are unmistakably yours, and develop the rigor, depth, and courage to share them publicly.

seasonal live intensives

Not "big people" doing promotional tours. People doing real work. Poets, activists, experts, artists creating through conflict. Intimate conversations. The kind of tables with the kinds of voices that don't usually get a seat. So we're building them ourselves.

Monthly Guest Panels + Calls

Supper Clubs + meetups

We host meetups in cities across the world for our members. The kind of evenings nobody wants to end. Among our past hosted (and self-hosted) events: Paris, Berlin, Toronto, Amsterdam, NYC. Next up: Barcelona, London, Costa Rica. Your city?

NATALIA RECONNECTED WITH HER JOY FOR CREATING

What Creative Living has meant for me is a way of reconnecting with myself in many different ways.

They key for my experience has been 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.

@CBMEDITATES REACHED 300K FOLLOWERS WITH HIS POETRY

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.

edila wrote the first pages of her memoir

Before Creative Living, I'd never consider myself "a writer." Now I am writing a memoir.

I'm not just writing more, but dancing, cooking, and just exploring life with more creativity and pleasure, with more intention and openness.

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! :))

Long for a deeper relationship with their creativity, outside the algorithm

Are exhausted by the pressure to be relevant and want to be true instead

Want to be surrounded by creatives on a mission to do the same

Strengthen your creative resilience so you can stay in the room with your work when it's uncomfortable, unfamiliar, or misunderstood.

Use writing as a tool to understand your own experience, deepen self-awareness, and rewire the way you think about yourself, your work and the world.

Unhook from the performance of constant visibility and reconnect with a creative practice that restores you instead of extracting from you.

Stop waiting for your work to be perfect or palatable before you share it, and start trusting your capacity to take up space, challenge consensus, and still stay grounded in yourself.

Whether you join for an 8 week live intensive or jump in for the 12 months, you will:

Develop a somatic and energetic practice that supports sustainable self-expression, so that creativity becomes part of your nervous system, not just your to-do list.

Dismantle the binaries that keep you creatively stuck. The idea that you have to choose between being seen or being safe. Being bold or being liked. Being "creative" or being "serious."

Learn to tell the truth on the page, even when it feels inconvenient, unsellable, or unpretty, and develop the discernment to know when to share it and when to keep it for yourself.

Reclaim your voice from the ruins of politeness, perfectionism, and performance, and meet the part of you that's been waiting to speak without permission.

What you'll learn inside
this year's edition:

When we built Creative Living, our question was simple: How do we take this practice off the screen and into people's actual lives?

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. Hundreds of creatives printed it, shared it, lived inside it. Now we've written Edition Two. Every year, we release a new version. As long as you're a member, the newest edition is yours.

THE CREATIVE LIVING WORKBOOK

The workbook that

reminder:

You don't need to be

before you

"better"

"deserve" this.

You just need to be done waiting. Done asking permission to take your own creativity seriously.

Creative Living isn't here to fix you.
You were never broken.

You're just ready. You've always been.

The version of you that exists right now is the one who gets to create and be and do the things you really want to.

You don't need to have written a book. You don't need to call yourself a writer. You don't need to have a creative career or a Substack or a following or a plan.

It's impossible to capture the essence of Creative Living — you just have to live it.

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.

“Creative Living transformed my relationship with art and self-expression.”

Initially, I struggled with feeling voiceless and hesitant to share my work. Through Creative Living, 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.

It 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.

"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. After Creative Living, 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.

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.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is this a safe space for marginalised voices?

We are actively committed to cultivating a space that honours difference, complexity and identity, not as checkboxes, but as living realities. Our community includes people of many races, genders, sexualities, neurotypes and body experiences. We prioritise safety, nuance, accountability and care. No space is perfect, but we do our utmost to make this one courageous and kind.

Is there 1:1 support or feedback? 

During live intensives, yes. You'll have direct access to Lois and Maia for feedback, mentoring, and support. Between rounds, the community itself is remarkably generous with feedback and encouragement. 

I'm in a sensitive season. Will this be too much?

The practice is designed to meet you where you are. We work with the nervous system, not against it. Many members have joined during some of the hardest seasons of their lives and found that having a creative container made everything more bearable, not less. Go at your own pace. Always. Lois and Maia are also trauma-informed and our curriculum is revised by a somatic therapist.

What if I can't make the live calls?

Everything is recorded and available in the app. The community is global, which means conversations are happening across time zones, all the time. You'll never feel behind.

I'm not a writer. Can I still join?

Yes. We have architects, therapists, coaches, scientists, surfers, photographers, jewellery founders, painters, mothers, executives, and people who have never written a word in their adult lives. Everyone who comes through our doors discovers a writer inside them. This is a human practice, not an industry-specific one.

How much time will it take each week?

As little or as much as you want. Some members dip in for five minutes a day with a morning ritual. Others spend hours in the expression library. The app is designed to meet you wherever you are, and the practice builds around your life, not the other way around.
