One-of-a-kind creative journeys take you there

There's nothing like co-creating with a phenomenal human.

Sensing when the block shifts and intuition hits. Witnessing the moment when the dots connect and something clicks into place.

Every creative journey meets you where you are and takes you where you want to be. No templates, no one-size-fits-all prescribed pathways, no predictable outcomes.

Partnership is most needed at juicy junctures — a launch, a rebrand, a pivot, a leap — those sticky transitions between what was and what has yet to be created. When we’re continuously expanding our creative potential, we’re going to find ourselves in that liminal space more often (huzzah!).

Some partnerships last years. Some sprint. Some crack it open in a single afternoon. What they all share is the willingness and hunger to create: new identities, businesses, art, and futures.

Together, we'll make it undeniably real in the world.


Creative Coaching: The Becoming


You feel the pull of what's next, but you might be unclear, frozen, distracted, or restless. Or there’s an idea rattling your ribcage.

Either way, you're in transition or ready for one.

And staying where you are scares you more than the unknown.

Often, what blocks the creative work is the one creating it.

In these intimate 1-1 coaching sessions, I'll ask questions that crack you open, reveal your blind spots and your brilliance, as we ride through the uncomfortable, exhilarating stretch of becoming.

This might look like leaving corporate to build your own dream, creating your art, stepping into leadership, or turning self-doubt into self-trust. Ultimately, it’s creatively directing your life.

You'll get clear on what a spine-tingling life looks like, what's getting in the way of it, and how to experience it now.

This sharp clarity feels like being wrapped in a hotel towel after a hot bath. It keeps you moving, growing, and creating long after our work is done.

Creative Direction: The Making


You might have a company to grow, a story to tell, a brand to build, a project that needs a creative director who'll live inside it for a season, or an idea waiting to be made.

Together, we'll craft the brand, the piece of art, or that idea on the back of a coaster. We'll shape it like we're Swayze and Moore in Ghost.

As a two-decades-deep, award-winning creative director and copywriter, and a certified coach, I build stories and worlds that shape culture and start conversations.

Powerful brands are made of phenomenal humans, so I work with the people as much as the brand. I partner with companies committed to making the world a bit (or a whole lot) better.

This creative and thinking partnership turns chaos and uncertainty into breakthrough work.

Your shoulders drop and heart beats faster. The weight lifts and the idea finally lands and takes off.

This is creative direction, from concepting to brand strategy, on amphetamines.

Client Love

  • "I spent a fabulously rich eleven months working with Pia. We'd first crossed paths in Agency Land a decade earlier, so when I was in need of some serious strategic and creative support, she was the first person I thought of. Pia is fantastic. Curious, talented, organised and artistic; she has this rare ability to take layered, complex information and transform it into coherent, compelling brand strategy. Across four brands desperately crying out for distinction yet quietly blurring into homogeny, Pia helped shape how we crafted meaning, carved out territories, and built strategies with real backbone. The output was substantial: a huge Brand Bible, individual Brand Books and full Brand Toolkits. A brilliant mind; witty, intelligent and tenacious. You will not regret her partnership or the talent she brings to the table. I look forward to working with her again, and until that day comes, I'd recommend her without hesitation."

    — Martin Morris, Creative Director

  • “Pia’s unlike any coach I’ve encountered, she’s the Rick Rubin of coaching—an invaluable creative collaborator.

In just three months, I completed the final draft of my manuscript and submitted it to a publisher before giving birth. My book got accepted and I am now living the dream of becoming a writer and mom. I couldn’t have done it without Pia. She guided me to the finish line and helped me fulfill a sacred promise to myself. Pia understood me authentically, more than anyone else. Whether you're pursuing a creative project, building a dream business, or seeking clarity, Pia will be the trusted guide who ensures you're never alone in the process.”

    — Hayley Creasey, Author, Heart Jam

  • “I received more insight with Pia on our discovery call than from any other coach I have worked with. Pia held a beautiful, judgement free, expansive space for me as I moved through some of the deepest subconscious work that I've ever done: getting clear on my vision as well as moving through the blockages in the way of me getting there. Since working with Pia I have a newfound confidence that has me standing taller and prouder! I have a deep clarity that has led to me speaking more clearly and more importantly: I believe in myself more deeply. In six months, we accomplished every single goal we set out to at the beginning of our journey together!”

    — Jackie Shields, CEO & Coach

  • "Working with Pia transformed me, inside and out. She has all the coaching skills and yet, something unique that cannot be duplicated. It's the power to make her clients feel seen and heard in a deep way. She met me, no matter my struggle, with a steadfast belief that I could accomplish what I needed when I needed to. And together, we made the space for me to trust myself again. Once that happened, I didn't need to pursue my goals--they pursued me."

    — Shanna Heath, Editor & Author

  • "I cannot express enough what an incredible human Pia is - her energy and talent are amazing. She is absolutely brilliant. Working with her far exceeded anything I ever expected from my branding project. Pia challenged me - asked some deep questions. We worked together on what I wanted my brand to be, my long term vision, what I wanted to say, and how I wanted to feel about my brand. She was able to translate my thoughts into words in a very succinct, emotional, and really powerful way. I am so grateful to have met her and to have her be part of my journey. I am incredibly proud of and excited about the outcome. I couldn't recommend her more."

    — Jeanne Collins, Founder of House of JerMar, published author, and podcast host

  • "Pia combines a wealth of business expertise with exceptional insight. Over the years, she helped me recognize when I was interpreting solid facts through a negative lens, or when I had become so narrowly focused that I was limiting my options and not thinking big enough. Pia was incredibly skilled at helping me step back, look at situations objectively, and refocus on my underlying objectives so that I could assess whether my actions and efforts were truly aligned with them. Her guidance helped me approach challenges with greater clarity and intention, while also pushing me to think more expansively about what was possible. Over time, that way of thinking has become an important part of how I evaluate decisions and navigate challenges. I’m deeply grateful for the wisdom and perspective she brought to my business."

    — K. Floyd, Founder, QQF, LLC 

  • "I spent eight months with Pia. Five months on life coaching and three to define my personal brand. Her guidance has taken me further than I could ever imagine. I kid you not, working with her has been one of the most transformational experiences. Before I started working with Pia, I was grappling with self-expression and struggling to articulate my thoughts in a way that felt like me. Pia's coaching was exactly what I needed to help me express authentically, position my brand and hone my voice. Her influence continues to guide my approach today. Anyone looking to explore their potential and reshape their brand, I wholeheartedly recommend Pia. Her expertise, insight, and supportive nature make her a 10 ☆ coach and mentor."

    — Justine Jones, Artist & Entrepreneur

  • "I was drowning in self-doubt—insecure as a leader, paralyzed by self-criticism, isolated at work, unsure of what to do next. Pia helped me transform self-doubt into self-trust. She gave me the space to see myself clearly and discover I could be my own leader. I learned to focus on the positive, be kind to myself, and feel secure in who I am. Pia's coaching was the key factor that moved me forward in my job. Her belief in people's creative potential is extraordinary. 10/10."

    — Lisbeth Olsen, Lead Architect

  • "Pia is a life changing coach who offers a great balance of soulful energy and impactful action. With her, I made huge changes in my life regarding my long-term vision for my career and relationships. After a few sessions of understanding my values and what works for me, we ended up doing really powerful visualizations and coming up with really fun and creative fieldwork for me to do on my own. In addition to her intelligence and creativity, I find Pia’s critical listening skills to be incredibly sophisticated and one of a kind. In case you’re looking for a sign that you need a life coach…this is it!"

    — Liane Al Ghusain, Artist, Writer & Teacher

  • "After working with Pia I now have clear vision for my path personally and in my career. I am clearer than ever in the things I value and want to pursue and the ones that are worth letting go of. I would not be where I am today without the guidance and support of Pia."

    — Hannah Ernst, Director of Production, Hugo Boss

  • "I was struggling with the classic creative's self-doubt, which really came to a head after a particular project didn't go very well. After six months with Pia, I've found a completely new level of confidence that has benefited both my work and my private creativity. I can wholeheartedly recommend Pia. She's great company and sharp as a tack!"

    — Thomas Golzen, Senior Creative, Accenture

  • "When the initial call to work together arrived a little over two years ago, my life looked very different. I wasn’t being honest with myself about what I wanted and had a hard time even knowing what that was. Pia guided me through the internal wilderness I desperately needed to traverse. The gems I excavated were astounding. I’m in awe at the depth of the work we did together. What I now know after working with such a deeply wise and compassionate guide is this: I am ready to be seen. This transformational container helped me break my addiction to my own suffering and grow multidimensionally. I'm now living my BIG dreams, honoring my work and myself. My life is my own now."

    — Natalie Wise, Founder of Strange Pigeon, Medicine Woman

  • "Oh, my God. That was incredible. I just had the most amazing session with Pia, and I'm so grateful she was able to help me with a project I thought was going to be easy. Then I noticed myself struggling through it. Pia teamed up with me in such a beautiful way where she was literally bringing out the essence of what I wanted, which I couldn't really express on my own. With her help, her questions, and just tapping into my vibe, somehow she magically produced the copy, the imagery, and exactly what I wanted to express for my first offering. Pia, you really just did absolute magic. It was really so effortless and so fun. I've never been through a process like that. Thank you, Pia".

    - Adam Eskow, Coach & Founder

  • “When you work with Pia, you will not only collaborate with a storyteller who can weave together all your random thoughts into a beautifully cohesive journey to connect with your audience. You will be partnering with a strategic business mentor, a kind, compassionate and experienced life coach, and your very own hype woman. She will motivate and inspire you to up-level. Before collaborating with Pia, I was still a little foggy in some areas of my offering. Pia has a way of always asking the most relevant, mind expanding questions and with this, she helped me gain clarity in many areas of my business. If you’re on the fence of whether or not your business requires her services just yet - take the leap! You will come out on the other end with more value for your money, a whole lot of clarity and a beautiful brand story!”

    — Singkepe, Energetic Conduit, Reality Co-Creator & Founder

  • "Before Pia and I started working together, I was having trouble really trusting myself to share more personal content and deeper points of view on social media platforms. After working together, the transformation happened pretty quickly and effectively. I was letting my personality shine and started creating content that felt more personable and relatable that connected with my audience. If you are thinking about working with Pia, I will go ahead and just say it... DO IT! She is an absolutely FANTASTIC coach who will help you get down to the root of what blocks you from being confident in who you are. Work with her so you won't have to be held back from these blocks ever again. My experience with Pia has absolutely elevated my relationship with my business and personal brand."

    — Shawn Heshmatpour, Men's Confidence Coach

  • “Pia was an amazing coach. I didn't know really what to expect but she was able to pull out of me so much belief in myself, to create momentum and motivation. After all our sessions, I felt totally empowered and excited to achieve my goals. I have grown as a person and this has been reflected in the growth of my business.”

    — Claire Bishop, Entrepreneur

  • "At DTU Entrepreneurship, we had the pleasure of working with Pia on communicating our purpose, programs and activities.   In Pia, we found someone who embraced, yet elevated our ideas and transformed them into assets that captured the essence of our centre in ways we couldn’t have imagined.   Pia brought positive energy and creative passion to our collaboration and truly cared about helping us express our purpose.   Pia listens intently, pushes gently and exudes immediate trust and connection - I wholeheartedly enjoyed working with Pia and I can’t think of anyone I’d recommend more highly."

    — Sannie Fisker, DTU Centre for Entrepreneurship

Fractional Creative Partnership: The Long Game


You're called to do bigger, braver work.

You might be building a brand, running a company whose original vision got whittled down into something executable, or creating something new that's too large, too strange, too important to build alone.

You feel the scale of what wants to be made.

The gap — between what exists and what’s possible — keeps you up. Not failure. The feeling of almost or not yet.

You're looking for someone who can sit in the room with the full scale of it, without flinching, and help shape it and bring it to the world. Someone who creates, has a point of view, and brings their own force into the room rather than just facilitating yours. For founders, I'm that creative partner. For companies, I'm their fractional creative director.

The creative work, strategy, and coaching run at full intensity, because this level of ambition requires it.

We'll be together through every pivot, block, breakthrough, white-knuckled decision, and the wildly uncomfortable but immensely satisfying stretch between now and next.

A partnership that compounds.

This is the most intimate, high-impact work I do — and I only take on one or two partners at a time.

Creative Intensive: The Move


You need to move now. In 90 minutes, we'll crack open the block, the decision, or the idea that's been keeping you stuck.

You've been circling something: A decision, a piece of work that won't click together, a message you keep rewriting, a block you can't get past.

It’s costing you — energy, time, and the other things you could be working on if this weren't taking up so much room.

You'll leave with clarity, direction, and momentum. Something that didn't exist before.

This is for…


 
  • A creative leader with a meaty, ambitious project

  • A founder whose idea is kicking their abdomen

  • An artist who hasn't found the full expression of their voice yet

  • A leader whose vision is bigger than anything they've built so far

  • An entrepreneur ready to pivot

  • An executive who's outgrown their career or role

  • A creative who's aching to realize their next expansive vision

  • Someone I haven’t described who feels like they might be in the right place

 

I’m Pia, your creative partner.

 
 

I'm no stranger to chaos, creativity, and change. I've created new expressions of myself, my business, and my art over a lifetime.

I’ve been a nomadic only child, an NYC party girl lost under strobe lights, a summa cum laude NYU grad student, a journalist in Sri Lanka, a media consultant jumping off yachts in Bahrain, and an award-winning creative director for some of the biggest brands in the world.

I don't just believe in your vision. I see what you can't see yet, and create the conditions for your truest work to emerge. I wade through the molasses with you and throw you coconut water on the summit.

There are coaches. There are consultants. There are creative directors. Very few are all three, and fewer still have the receipts.

As a certified coach, creative director, and best-selling author, I've co-created brands, art, and businesses.

I bring fierce intuition, feral creativity, strategic thinking, and the inner work. I don't just help you get clear. I help you build what the clarity points to. And I stay in it with you until it's live and kicking.
