Project Planning: The Unsexy Secret to Making Cool Stuff Happen

Here's where I, Michelle Pellizzon — she of witchcraft discussions and intuitive business sermons — confess my deeply un-magickal love affair with something that has my tarot cards collectively rolling their eyes: project planning. Not ironically, not subversively, but in a "this literally saved my creative life" way that sometimes makes me question if I've finally sold out to Big Productivity. (I haven't! Probably!)

The Magic-to-Mundane Pipeline

Project planning is definitely something, but like, ✨channeling spirit ✨ it is not. There's nothing transcendent about a project plan, at least to me. Yet those moments that feel like "literally touching God"— when creativity flows through you like some cosmic dictation service — don't appear simply when I light the right candle. They happen when I've laid the groundwork by doing the deeply unsexy work of planning.

I work with literal psychics and mediums — people who can, like, text the dead — and even THEY need project plans. Honestly, everyone can use a project plan. The game-changer for most people is realizing planning isn't constraining creativity but creating space for it.

Join My Planning Cult (We Have Templates)

I'm teaching a project planning class on March 23rd, 2025. If you're in the North Node, it's included (congrats, savvy investor!); if not, it's still affordable because I genuinely believe this stuff changes lives.

Listen to the full episode to hear how I've somehow made project planning sound revolutionary rather than like the organizational equivalent of eating your vegetables. Because sometimes the most rebellious thing you can do as a creative is actually finish what you start.

OK, so with that, let’s get into today’s case study — a project plan for putting together an Creative Writing MFA application that’s due at the end of March.
