SUMMARY:Play\, Experimentation + Permission | Creative Mindset Masterclass
DESCRIPTION:Creative Mindset Masterclasses are for creatives wanting to strengthen their mindset and build sustainable creative practices. \n\n\n\nA 60-minute interactive online masterclass for writers whose writing has gotten heavier than it used to be\, and who are ready to bring some of the joy\, and the silliness\, back. \n\n\n\n\nStop performing. Start playing.  \n\n\n\nThe problem\n\n\n\nYou used to write because you wanted to know what happened next. Now every sentence has to earn its place before you’ll write it. Every idea gets evaluated before it’s even finished forming. Somewhere between loving writing and taking it seriously\, the play disappeared. The answer isn’t to care less about your work. It’s to remember that play and seriousness were never actually opposites. \n\n\n\nWhat you’ll learn\n\n\n\n\nWhy play fuels creative breakthrough\, not despite the stakes\, but because of how it lowers them\n\n\n\nHow to separate generating ideas from judging them\, so judgment stops strangling everything before it starts\n\n\n\nHow to lower the stakes deliberately\, even on work that genuinely matters\n\n\n\nWhy curiosity is reason enough to follow an idea\, with no destination required\n\n\n\nHow to build a permission practice that makes experimentation feel safe again\n\n\n\n\n\nIncludes\n\n\n\nLive exercises (yes\, including a competition for the worst possible opening line)\, reflection on your own writing history with play\, group Q&A\, a literal permission slip\, and a downloadable handout with your personal permission framework. \n\n\n\nHow to Join\n\n\n\nYou can choose the option that suits you. Zoom links are sent the day before the live session\, and replays are sent within 24 hours after the session: \n\n\n\n🎟️ Single Masterclass Ticket – $20 \n\n\n\n\nAccess this one mastercalss (live and replay)\n\n\n\nPerfect if you want to focus on a single topic or join occasionally\n\n\n\n\n📅 Spark Pass – 12 Months of Masterclasses – $180 \n\n\n\n\nAccess all 10+ monthly masterclasses and monthly mindset insight newsletters for 12 months from purchase\n\n\n\nLive and replay of every masterclass\n\n\n\n\n\nGrab your seat for this masterclass\, or secure full-year access with the Spark Pass.\n\n\n\n\nBuy a single masterclass ticket\n\n\n\nBuy a Spark Pass\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAdditional Info:\n\n\n\n\nCurrent coaching members and program participants receive free access to the group coaching masterclasses. Non-members can join individual sessions for $20 or purchase a Spark Pass for 12-month access.\n\n\n\nAll ticket and pass holders receive the Zoom link within 24 hours before the live session\, and the replay is sent within 24 hours after the session.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout Meg Dunley\n\n\n\nMeg is a writing and creativity coach who has spent years helping writers build sustainable\, joyful creative practices. Her belief in the power of play isn’t theoretical\, it goes back to her mum\, a kindergarten teacher who built her entire world around the idea that play is how humans figure things out. Meg has carried that into her own creative life in some deliberately unpolished ways: she took up jazz piano as an adult purely for the joy of it (she never mastered it\, and that’s the point)\, and did weekly improv classes mostly so she had a reason to laugh out loud for two hours. She brings that same spirit of low-stakes experimentation to her coaching and to this masterclass. \n\n\n\n\nLike this?
