You have been planting seeds
You have big ideas, awesome products, and beautiful services to share with the world. In fact, whether you’ve only just begun planting seeds, or you have been giving them water and sunshine for several years, I know you have a lush garden full of ingredients to work with!
However, as you set out to improve your life, or grow your business, do you ever feel like you’re getting in your own way?
Even if you’ve been in business for several years, you may still be spinning your wheels as a result of not having clear goals in place, feeling paralyzed with fear, or derailed by distractions and obligations.
Over the last 10 years I’ve launched multiple businesses and big ideas, and I know how scary and challenging it can be. I have personally worked through countless blocks within myself, refined my business strategies, and I am passionate about empowering other creatives on this path.
Heart-centered, practical guidance for passionate individuals
who are hungry and ready to start thriving in all areas of life
I want to see you flourish
I see so many talented people undercharging, and as a result working way too hard trying to think up a sparkly new idea that will magically lift you up and out of the deep, murky waters.
Instead of all of that hard work—hatching plans to buy new land, bring in large machines to till the soil, plant new seeds and spend all your resources on growing new crops—I love helping creative entrepreneurs leverage who they are and what they’ve done. What can you make out of the colorful harvest you’ve put so much of your heart & soul into?
It’s time to Harvest & Thrive!
I have designed a complete course, with seven different modules, to walk you through everything from clarifying your goals and untangling the fears that derail you – to giving you very practical, rubber-meets-the-road guidance for systems that will help you create the structure & focus to be productive and at peace while you’re doing what you love.
We’re going to look at your relationship with money, talk about how to raise your rates, and most importantly I want to show you how you can leverage all that you have within you right now. All of which will support you in stepping into your next chapter with ease & grace, feeling empowered and ready to consciously create the life or business you desire.

Choose Your Own Adventure
I’ve designed this so that you have a choice. You can choose to sign up for individual modules, or you can register to receive the whole kit and kaboodle. You know best where you’re at right now. You know what you want to learn. You know where you’re feeling overwhelmed, and where you’re needing support and clarity. Now is the time!
If you’d like to learn a bit more about each module, you can do so below. They will all reference each other, which is why I highly recommend enrolling in the complete course for the full experience, but listen to what feels right for you.
No matter how on fire we are with our ideas, we’re constantly being challenged with fears that can stop us dead in our tracks. Have you noticed your best intentions getting derailed by feeling like you don’t know how, fear of failure (or success), lack of time or money, or some strange notion that you need permission to follow your heart? This is totally normal, and one of my FAVORITE topics. I’ll help you untangle these fears, see them clearly and get back in the flow to creating the life you want. You will receive tools and tricks to use over & over again when you’re feeling your fears derail you, so you can shorten your recovery time, and get back on track; feeling empowered and ready to birth your big ideas into the world!
This module pairs well with Clarifying Your Vision and Embodying Your Brilliance.
Ever feel like any minute you’re going to be called out as a fraud? “Who do you think you are? You really think you can create something that will be any good, let alone that may change lives? The audacity!” In this module we’re going to shine a light on the imposter syndrome, and turn up the volume on the part of you that knows you have important work to share with this world. Get ready to feel grounded and connected to your personal power, to step forward with a renewed energy and confidence!
This module pairs well with Gathering The Courage and Leveraging Your Harvest.
As creatives and busy entrepreneurs we’re juggling a lot! Between brainstorming, developing and implementing your big ideas, you have tasks, clients, family, travel, email, accounting, marketing and more; all of which can quickly get overwhelming and derail you from making true progress. After years of owning/launching several businesses–and being a productivity geek at heart–I will be sharing my favorite life-hacks and easy-to-use tools for implementing systems that will support you in feeling organized, focused and back in the flow.
This module pairs well with Clarifying Your Vision, Leveraging Your Harvest and Thriving Financially.
Do you love helping people, and as a result find yourself working for free or undercharging to make your clients happy? Do you feel like you’re hustling as hard as you can, but your bank account is still running low? When we’re doing what we love, it can be hard to put a price on it. And if you don’t consider yourself money-motivated you could probably care less, at least until it’s time to pay the rent. In this module we’re going to untangle some of the limiting beliefs around the taboo subject of making money, and the complicated connection between value and self-worth. It’s time to stop ‘just barely getting by,’ and start thriving in all areas of your life!
This module pairs well with Clarifying Your Vision, Embodying Your Brilliance and Leveraging Your Harvest.
Many of my clients have been in business for over five years (some 15-20 years!), and I constantly see them spinning and working hard thinking they have to create something brand spanking new. I hear them hatching plans to buy new land, bring in large machines to till the soil, plant new seeds and spend all their resources on growing new crops. When in fact they have a beautiful harvest right in front of them. One of the core inspirations for this course is how much I love helping creative entrepreneurs leverage who they are and what they’ve done. Learn how to maximize what you have created, nourishing yourself and your community, to grow your business with ease and grace.
This module pairs well with Thriving Financially and Marketing With Authenticity.
Artists love the creating part, but when it comes to getting your message out to the world, it can feel daunting, complicated or simply no fun. If you’re unsure of where to start, have no idea what to do with emails, social media, or how to effectively grow and harness an engaged community, you’ll love this module. This isn’t about being on every platform and blasting everyone out of the water, it’s about doing what feels right for you and your business. I’ll show you ways to feel connected and confident about your message, and how to create a clear plan for achieving the results you desire.
This module pairs well with Embodying Your Brilliance and Creating Structure & Focus.
Each of these modules above include:
- Simple, but powerful step-by-step worksheets to walk you through your thoughts, goals and unique offerings to create actionable results you can start implementing right away.
- Videos and presentations with me, and a few other leading experts, inspiring artists and successful entrepreneurs; sharing their tips, resources, and stories of how they came to harvest & thrive in their lives/careers.
When you enroll in the complete course, you will receive all 7 modules, plus you’ll have access to these sweet additional bonuses:
- Full access to a community of like-minded, passionate individuals who are dedicated to creating and thriving!
- Two live coaching/consulting calls with all participants to ask questions, share insights, resources and learn from your fellow movers & shakers
- A one-on-one 20 minute coaching/consulting session with Willo O’Brien to answer questions, or support you in a specific area.
Are you ready to clarify your vision, gather the courage, embody your brilliance, create structure & focus, thrive financially, leverage your harvest & share your message with with the world from an authentic & heart-centered place? Let’s do this!
Helpful A’s to your Curious Q’s
How do I take the course?
This is an online course, which means you can live or be anywhere in the world and participate at your convenience. All the content will be delivered right to your inbox!
When does this start?
The first module kicks off Monday, December 2nd, 2013, and the remaining six will become available consecutively in the weeks that follow. This gives the complete-course participants the opportunity to fully experience each of the modules. All of the content will be yours to keep, to reference back to at any time.
I’ve registered for the complete course. When will the live calls happen?
Live call dates and call-in information will be provided by December 5th. If you’re unable to make the calls, they will be recorded and sent to you after. However, I recommend you commit to giving yourself the hour to be present and live on the call with us… it’s always so much more enjoyable that way!
I’m only purchasing a few of the modules. When will I get them?
You will receive your individual module content at the same time the participants who have registered for the complete course receive theirs. Meaning if you purchase Part 1 of 1: Clarifying Your Vision, you’ll receive it on December 2nd. If you’re only purchasing Part 7 of 7: Marketing With Authenticity, it will arrive in your inbox on or by January 13th.
Note: If you’re wondering if these dates changed recently, they have! I chose to do a time shift for my own ease & grace. ;)
That seems like a long time to wait. And what about the holidays?
I realize there are a few holidays coming up, but our lives & business often don’t stop for those. You may even experience some down time, which is a perfect time to think about what goals you want to set for 2014. Remember, all of the content will be yours to keep, to reference at any time.
Selling these modules individually is an experiment of sorts. (I love experiments.) I would genuinely like everyone to participate in the complete course, but I like the idea of giving you choice and offering you the earlybird price to participate in the specific modules/topics you are drawn to the most.
It’s also quite possible I won’t offer the modules for sale individually like this again.
I registered for the course, but I still haven’t heard anything.
Did you receive a registration confirmation email? If not, the emails may be caught in your spam filter, or I may not have your correct email address. Email me the details of your concern, and we’ll get it sorted for you.
If you did receive the confirmation email, but you’re wondering why you haven’t received the content yet, please see the answer above.
I don’t have a business… is this course still right for me?
I will be framing a lot of the content in the context of being a creative entrepreneur, or having a big idea you want to get out in the world. However, I firmly believe everyone can benefit from having more clarity around their goals, and awareness around the fears and patterns that hold them back from creating the life they truly desire. Modules 1-4 could really be for most anyone seeking positive change in their life. Modules 5-7 are more geared towards those who have a business, or want to start one.
What kind of commitment does this course require?
I would estimate a minimum of 30 minutes, and up to 90 minutes per module, depending on how you like to learn. At the beginning of every module I’ll outline exactly what you can expect, and offer some suggestions for how you can create a supportive structure to integrate the content & lessons. Each module will have a combination of email, videos and worksheets, all of which that work together to guide you through in a workshop-like format.
For complete Harvest & Thrive course participants, I encourage you to utilize the two live coaching calls as an opportunity to ‘study’ and interact with the content in a more live, connected way. On the calls, you’ll have the opportunity to ask questions, share insights, and learn from your fellow movers & shakers! I also very much look forward to our 1:1 coaching session to get to know you better.
Beyond that, like most anything in life, you’ll get out of it what you put into it. This is, after all, about consciously creating.
100% Money Back Guarantee
I want you to feel satisfied. Therefore, I’m offering a Money Back Guarantee. If you complete your module and are dissatisfied, contact me within 2 weeks for a full refund.
Kind words from brilliant women…
“After working with Willo, I have completely re-structured the way I work, and how much time I work, ensuring I don’t burn out or resent turning my creative skills into a business. I would recommend Willo over and over again, not just to a businesswoman or entrepreneur, but also to someone who is switching careers or overall gears in their life. She has the caring instinct to guide you through your most overwhelming plateaus, but also the business background and the no-nonsense skills to get you back on course.”
~ Karrie Myers Taylor, Head Video Editor, Videokard
“ Willo‘s guidance and support opened the space for me to get playful with my ideas rather than feeling stuck and critical.
I am still in awe of how she guided me through my process… Willo – I will be forever grateful!!”
~ Jackie Priestley, Transformational Coach
“I am consistently blown away by the wisdom and energy of this woman. She has it all: organizational systems, get-it-doneness, efficiency, humor, high-level intelligence, deep compassion for being where you’re at, and a high-level knowledge of technology and marketing. If you’ve dreamed of a one-person solution to give you insight, guidance and help you grow your Creative Business, Willo will get you where you want to go!”
~ Mati Rose McDonough, Artist & Author
“I have increased productivity, responsibility, efficiency and a clearer vision of my future long and short term goals as a result of working with Willo. Willo has the perfect balance of strength, sternness and kindness. She challenges you to think from a different perspective and gives a new, refreshing angle and approach to problems & solutions. If you’re in a rut, Willo will help you get out and move forward with motivation and energy!”
~ Holly McNamara, Entrepreneur
It’s time to design the life & business *you* desire
I have made big, bold leaps in my 10+ years of being in business for myself, and I have been fervent in following my heart and creating the life I want.
I have done it, and I’ve had the honor of working with amazing professionals, many of them leaders in their fields–artists, writers, costume designers, pilates instructors, video producers, event producers, marketing directors, CEOs, product designers, jewelers and coaches–helping them achieve clarity, get out of their own way, step into their brilliance, maximize their efforts, and thrive doing what they love.
