Dear Artist,
I’ve spent the last decade in research mode—writing six books on career development, recording over 1,700 interviews for Yale University Radio, and listening closely to what gatekeepers say after the cameras stop rolling. This week, I’m inviting twelve artists into something I’ve never offered before: bespoke, asynchronous strategy coaching via personal video.
No Zooms. No scheduling. Just you,
me, and a back-and-forth conversation recorded and replayable—one that builds a tailored strategy around your work.
Here’s how it works:
- Enroll in Praxis at the annual level ($595) before the twelve seats vanish.
- Within 24 hours, you’ll receive a short, personal welcome video from me. Yes, I’ll say your name.
- I’ll walk you through our "video volley" method and ask you to send me your website, your goals, and
that creative dilemma you can’t seem to shake.
- Then I’ll record a longer video just for you—offering a strategic path based on what you send. We continue from there, exchanging videos every few days.
No apps to install. No time zones to juggle. Just clarity.
Why only twelve? Because real coaching—like real art—demands presence and focus. I won’t dilute the work.
And beyond
this coaching experiment, your annual Praxis membership gives you full access to:
- Weekly roundtables with curators from institutions like Venice Biennale, Manifesta, LACMA, and the Whitney
- Our curated portfolio hub, browsed by gallerists and curators worldwide

Art history favors the artist who moves during the quiet hour—who acts when others hesitate. I’m offering you one of twelve keys.
