Common obstacles for us “Ideas People”
Creatives often feel the pressure to “create on demand,” struggling with the mysteries of the Creative Process and how to consistently create brilliant work. Creative burnout effects every area of life: intellectual, physical, relational, spiritual, and financial. Discover life-giving practices & creative rhythms to design your life as thoughtfully as your creative work.
-
Did something shiny just pass by? Another new idea perhaps? Or email? Text message? What was that errand you forgot to do during lunch…?
-
Does the Creative Process feel mysterious and unpredictable? Does the pressure to create or produce feel never-ending? Are you overwhelmed with work, life, finances, the future — and struggling to find rest?
-
Does the creative journey ever feel like a lonely road? Do you feel unheard or misunderstood by some significant people around you? Do you ever feel pressure to prove your worth or question if you’re “good enough”?
-
Are you struggling with procrastination? Or time management? Does your definition of “organized” mean you know where everything is… but no one else can find anything?
-
Are you constantly operating in “urgency mode,” always reacting to the never-ending daily demands? Do you feel overly-stressed, jaded, or completely exhausted? Do you have no idea when or how your next great idea will appear?
Hi, I’m Katherine
Being a Creative Pro or Visionary isn’t exactly a linear path. I know, I’ve been there.
For almost 15 years, I taught art & design in Higher Ed, helping young creatives develop healthy creative practices to accomplish their goals in class & beyond. I’ve also been the entire in-house Creative department at a start-up and started my own business… right before a pandemic shut down. I believe no creative professional should journey alone or sacrifice life balance for prolific and creative brilliance in this “create on demand” world. As an Unstoppable Growth and Full Focus Planner certified coach, with an MS in Communication Design from Pratt Institute, my goal is simple: to give you the proven tools, strategies, & support you need to make your dreams a reality with daily actions.
I’m all about helping you develop life-giving practices to help you master your mindset, create with confidence, & build your breakthrough. Let’s escape organized chaos & distraction, so you can design your life as thoughtfully as your creative craft.
Are you ready? Check out my coaching services and let’s celebrate more wins together!
"The strange paradox of creative work is that freedom often comes through structure."
Todd Henry, author “Herding Tigers”

“Schedules. Meetings. Plans. Deadlines. Routines. Assignments. Structure. Mornings… the list of things not natural as a creative, free-spirit, are seemingly endless for me. Unfortunately, those same things, which favor left brained strengths, are deeply ingrained and favored in American culture. It can be a hard place for a dreamer to find their way.
Katherine Benson is a woman of many extraordinary talents. I personally have been blessed beyond measure by her gentle wisdom and strong example, particularly in regard to how to find my way as an artist and Christ-follower who colors outside the conventional lines.
If you desire a coach in this crazy adventure called life, Katherine is definitely who you want in your corner. Especially if you feel the need to paint it to stand out.”
