We offer a limited number of mentoring sessions each year for creatives, designers or anyone with an idea. Whether you’re exploring a creative project, preparing a pitch or need someone to bounce your ideas off, we’re here to help you bring your ideas to life.
Our mentoring sessions are designed to:
Let us know about you and what you want us to work together on. Sections with an * are required. We’ll be in touch in a few days.
£100 for 60 minutes
Standard sessions are 60 minutes however this can be tailored to suit your needs.
Everyone is different. We believe in discovering the answers together, rather than providing a non-bespoke blueprint for what you should do. You can expect to have greater clarity about what’s important to you and motivation to achieve your goals.
It’s simple. Just click on ‘Join the Waiting List’ and complete your details. We’ll contact you when we have spaces available.
A session is great if you’ve got a big idea or an existing creative business but you’re not sure what to do next. You might be feeling overwhelmed, a bit lost or you have a feeling something is holding you back.
Each session is unique and is all about you. We talk through where you’ve come from, how you’re feeling, what you’re finding challenging and where you want to go. Together, we’ll come up with some ideas that work for you.
We may just talk, but we may also get a bit creative, especially if you’re trying to work out what your brand looks and sounds like. We might use writing, drawing or collage — or all three — but we’ll let you know before the session what we think will work for you.
We’ll send you an email with the details about our online meeting. If you need to change the time, get in touch.
After our session, you should feel great. You’ll have clarity about who you are, where you want to go and ideas for how to get there.
Yes, of course! While one session might be enough, you might find in a couple of months that you’ve got more questions or you want to build in accountability. Our first session is always 60 minutes — so we have enough time to get to know each other — but if you want to book another session you can choose from 60 minutes, 45 minutes or 30 minutes.
It’s completely up to you! Some people might want weekly sessions for a month and then book a session when they need to discuss their next challenge. Other people will find one is enough. If you’re looking for accountability to stay on track for a certain project, bid or deadline, you can book some 30-minute sessions in advance.
Each session is with Louisa, founder of Common Exception. Louisa is a strategist and a creative problem solver with a lot of empathy and understanding that everyone, whatever their circumstances, has challenges. She’s worked with businesses and organisations of all sizes, but it’s the creative people doing it on their own that she thinks will change the world.
We understand that life gets complicated! If you need to change your appointment time, contact us 24 hours in advance.
