The LA Experiment (and My Return to Creative Space)

In this episode of Creative Space, I’m getting real about what it means to truly practice what I preach—especially after taking a break from the podcast to do some serious inner work. As a coach, I help people get clear on their goals and make them happen, but I also do the same work myself with my own coach.

When I first started working with my coach, my focus was growing my coaching practice. But in the process, I ended up unearthing a dream I’d buried for years: moving to LA.

I spent a long time doing everything but that. When I bought my house in Philly, I tried to convince myself I could let go of that dream and just make the best of where I was. But it wouldn’t let me go.

For years I felt stuck, trying to force myself to be happy in my so-called “dream house,” until I finally did the hard work to face what I really wanted.

In 2025, I committed to spending one month in LA—what I called my “LA experiment.” That one decision set off a chain of events that turned this into one of the coolest, most creative years of my life so far.
I hope it inspires you to get real with yourself and go after your dreams, even the scary ones!
