Free! Obstacle Release Ceremony. Because every dream comes with obstacles.
Really! If your dream didn't have obstacles it wouldn't really be a DREAM.
There are a lot of different ways to work with obstacles, this Obstacle Release Ceremony is a the way to work obstacles when you're just ready to let them go.
We originally did this Obstacle Release Ceremony on the full moon, which is a fantastic time for an obstacle release ceremony, but the best time to do this work is when you feel like you want to release your obstacle!
Watch the free Obstacle Release Ceremony now:
(This is from a series of live, free calls I did in the summer and fall of 2023 called Co-Dreaming)
Your obstacle IS the way through.
Waiting for it to change, or to "feel ready" to face will never bring you what you want because the obstacle IS the way through.
I can show you more ways to work with your obstacles in Dream Book.
If you're curious about how Dream Book can help you - read on. And use the contact form at the bottom of this page to let me know what's going on with your dreams and I can tell you more about how Dream Book can support you in working through the obstacles and getting to where you want to be.

Your dream MATTERS.
You may feel like it’s too small or too weird to too big or too selfish. Like, why dream of learning to crochet or writing a book about healing when climate change is threatening to destroy us all and Trump just got elected again? What’s the point?
The point is that your dream MATTERS. Thinking about it lights you up and that MATTERS.
Your dreams come from a sacred part of you, they are a way that your soul speaks to you to guide you on your path. In spite of everything else in your life and in the world - your dream MATTERS and we’re going to make more SPACE for it in your life.
But you don’t have to feel positive about it!
This is NOT the kind of healing space where we say “just focus on the positive” or “don’t get political”. All feelings are welcome here! You won’t be shamed for having fears or anxiety. All dreams come with obstacles and some of those obstacles are SO SCARY. We get it.
Creative Dreaming is inherently vulnerable and can stir up huge existential fears. What if I fail? What if I find out I’m not good enough? What if I succeed but then… everyone gets jealous and hates me?
These fears are not a sign that you’re not ready, they are just a part of the process and we have lots of ways of dealing with them inside the Creative Dream Incubator Coaching Membership.
One of the first things you’ll learn in the membership is Creative Dream ALCHEMY.
This is the art and magic of using what you have to create what you want. Fears, doubts, lack of clarity, difficulty focusing, external obstacles… whatever it is you are facing on any given day CAN be transformed into what you need for your next steps.
You don't have to wait to feel ready to be bold about your dreams... the Creative Dream Incubator is full of tools that meet you where you are.
So all topics are welcome on our calls - whatever is coming up for you in your process is worth discussing.
Climate change anxiety, frustration about mental or physical health issues, that feeling like capitalism is making your dream impossible, the way working on your dreams brings up childhood traumas.... We talk about all of this on our calls!
I don't mean we get together to bitch about the state of the world... I mean we are facing the problems head on and processing our feelings about them so we can choose our most empowered and authentic way to respond. This is important work.
Before the Creative Dream Incubator: you're either working hard and hoping to get lucky... or waiting for luck to find you so you can feel ready to begin.
Your dream feels like this audacious far away thing, or a delicate flower that's about to get crushed by this cruel, toxic world.
You are searching for "the right way" to get there but the path is so full of ups and downs, you're not always sure what to try next, there is lots of “waiting for the right time”, and you're trying to hold back the fear that this dream is actually impossible...
And on top of all of this, there is this part of you that is worried that YOU ARE NOT GOOD ENOUGH TO DO THIS and sometimes you believe it.
After the Creative Dream Incubator: you TRUST the MAGIC and POWER in you.
Your dream is no longer something outside of you to chase after, it’s inside of you, and you come to know it as a light from your own soul that is here to guide you in your life. You come to know your dream as a sacred calling that is here to light up your whole life.
You are held in this beautiful process of healing and growth in becoming the version of you who can make this happen because you KNOW, deep down, that this is who you really are, the thing you are dreaming of is actually what you are here to do.
It's not just that you feel confident about your dreams, and it's not a mindset upgrade - it's a whole new way of being.
You stop being afraid of your fears and doubts.
You can look them in the eye, offer these hurting parts of you love and compassion, and get them out of the driver’s seat in your life.
You feel powerful in your life.
You know you can create what you want, and you can do it how you want to do it. No more looking for someone outside of you to give you the answers. You know that your dream chose YOU because YOU are the person who can do this. Your trust your ideas, your intuition and your inspiration.
You'll always have options for what to do next.
No more waiting for the stars to align so you can take your next steps, no more wondering HOW to make it happen - you’ve ALWAYS got options.
You have more clarity and focus. You have a birds-eye view of your dreams, and your path, no more getting lost in the weeds.
Obstacles don’t stop you.
Every time you hit an obstacle you have a ton of support for working THROUGH it and coming out on the other side stronger, more powerful and more connected to your creative magic.
This does NOT mean that you’ll NEVER be stuck or afraid. Creative Dreaming is intensely vulnerable! You’re going to have feelings about it! But you will be able to work with… actually work THROUGH those feelings. They aren’t going to hijack your process.
The Creative Dream Incubator Coaching Membership is an alchemical container. This means EVERYTHING becomes fuel for transformation.

Your dream matters to you. It’s too important to leave it up to chance.
You don't have to feel ready. You don't have to always feel confident! You don't have to know what you're doing.
You just need to get onto the path.

⚡️Breakthroughs guaranteed⚡️
Your dream is your soul calling. It’s your soul showing you who you really are.
This is why I believe in your dreams FULLY. Because they come from your soul. They are the realest thing about you. And you wouldn’t have the dream if you didn’t also have the power, creativity and wisdom to make it happen. (Inside the membership, I'll remind you of that as often as you need me to)
I don’t make any promises about how long things will take. But I promise your dream is your dream for a reason. And pursuing it as a soul calling will change everything for you.
The Creative Dream Incubator Coaching Membership works best for people who are creative, soulful or introspective and progressive - dreaming of a better world for themselves AND everyone else.
The membership is full of artists, healers, coaches, therapists, activists and people who are exploring who they want to be.
They are currently dreaming of: writing their next bestseller, starting a coaching business, having a whole new relationship with their bodies and making time for all of the creative hobbies they wish they were doing. Nothing is too big or too small here.
At first, people usually join because they:
🦋 want to make a specific change in their personal or professional life
🦋 are ready to bring a new project to life
🦋 are feeling burnt out and need a new approach
🦋 have a big obstacle that they just can't seem to get around
🦋 have been working on their dreams and feel they need more support to get to the next level
And the membership is great for all of that!
So that’s why people join… but then they STAY in the group for the magic, healing and growth.
Pursuing your dream as a sacred calling is an alchemical process that will heal and transform you. If you’re anything like me, once you get really INTO that process - you will never want to leave.
So I priced the membership at $33 USD/month for that reason. Many of our members have been here for years, and have no intention of leaving. I wanted this to be accessible as a long-term support system for LIVING YOUR MAGIC.
Because your soul is not going to make this one dream come true and then retire. Your soul is here to grow, create and expand and there are no limits to what it can do.
The Creative Dream Incubator Coaching Membership is ongoing and you can join any time.
I have been running this group since 2012! We have been through a few iterations since then, and our current set-up is, of course, THE BEST.
The program content is available 24-7 with worksheets and videos to guide you through everything.
People say it’s like having me right there with them, showing them the secrets of creative dreaming. I'll show you how to set up your own Dream Book, which is a way of journaling that helps you navigate inner and outer work of making your dream happen.
And we do live coaching and healing circles on Zoom!
Every month there is an intention setting call right before the new moon, where we do a process together to figure out with you want to focus on for the next month. Then we do coaching and Q+A - my goal is that at the end of the call everyone knows what they want to focus on AND has some practices that are going to help them be able to do what you want to do over the next month.
And we have regular Marketing as a Creative + Spiritual Practice call. We do talk about tactics and strategy sometimes, but mostly these calls are a place to focus on the inner and creative work of SHARING YOUR GIFTS.
Most Fridays we have a call for co-working, connecting and coaching, and I add other calls or change the schedule around depending on the needs of the group.
Most of our calls happen at 1:00 pm Central, North America - you'll have access to our Google Calendar so you can see everything that is coming up and translate it into your own time zone.
The replays are magic too!
This work is SO MUCH EASIER when you do it in community, and I have received consistent feedback that people feel this from the replays as well as the live calls.
If you can attend live of course that's amazing that we get to hang out and you can ask questions in real time. But I want to make sure you are getting what you need from the group if you can come to the live calls or not - so there is also a forum where you can post thoughts, ideas and questions while watching replays.
Some people prefer the replays, because you can pause the meditations to explore some prompts more deeply and give yourself more time wherever you need it.
The membership is set up with creatives in mind!
You have a lot of freedom in how you move through the membership AND there is structure to help you get the most out of it.
And NOTHING in mandatory! Just do the parts that appeal to you.
Some people just do the live coaching calls and healing circles, some people focus on the pre-recorded program content. It’s really up to you. You can receive 2-3 emails per week guiding you through the program content OR you can turn off the emails and go through it on your own time using the checklist on the website.
There is even an oracle you can visit that will give you a different resource to check out every time.
On the main page is a section for sending me an email - if you ever feel lost, you can let me know what you’re working on with your dream and I will suggest which tools and courses to work with.
"This, THIS, is why this is such genius program: Simultaneously connecting me with the essence of my biggest dream and solving the most mundane next step towards it. Thank you."
Meliors, The Holistic Tooth Fairy, www.holistictoothfairy.com
An online membership that helps you DO THE THING YOU ARE DREAMING OF so you can be more creative and bold and FEEL LIKE YOURSELF in your life.
Within the first month you'll be seeing yourself, your dreams and your whole life in a new light.
How much easier would it be to make your dream HAPPEN with consistent and effective support?
No one has ever made a big dream real on their own. But most of us don’t have a lot of supportive people around us. Or we have people around us who support us, but they don’t actually know how to help us make this thing happen.
Joining the Creative Dream Coaching Membership gives you instant support and that felt sense that YOU ARE NOT ALONE IN THIS, which is magic.
Plus you get access to ALL of the dream-growing tools I’ve created while running the Creative Dream Incubator for the last 13+ years! Just send me an email any time, let me know what you’re facing with your dream - and I will make recommendations for what to work with. (There’s a contact form on the main page of our website, so it’s always easy to reach out to me. I want to hear from you!)
The times when we actually FEEL READY to make a significant change are pretty rare. What would happen if you just DIVE IN RIGHT NOW?
Time and time again, members have told me that they wanted for months or years to join, and then once they joined they realised how much better it would have been to join sooner because they would have REALLY GOTTEN MOVING with their dream sooner.
NOW is the time.
If you’re not ready… the coaching membership will help you get ready much more quickly than you would do on your own.
When you approach your dream as a SACRED CALLING - you'll find that the path begins right under your feet, right where you are today. Your soul set it up this way.
The Creative Dream Incubator Coaching Membership costs $33 USD/month.

Creative Business Incubator: an in-depth program I made with everything I learned when I made the shift into doing this work full time.
... Plus so many other programs and tools I can't list them all here.
“I’m one of those people who used to think that I didn’t have enough time or money to participate in something like this.
I realize now that thinking I didn’t have enough time or money was just an excuse. It was kind of tied into not believing in my own self worth, like I shouldn’t spend the money or take time away from my kids to do this because it was silly and it wasn’t going to cause a change in my life so what’s the point.
That was just my inner critic talking, I realize now, and boy was my inner critic wrong! This HAS changed my life!”

The Creative Dream Incubator Coaching Membership Guarantee:
You are going to have BREAKTHROUGHS.
When you join the group - you’ve got me on your side. I share ALL of my tools and I am HERE, helping you use them.
You’ll get emails that guide you through the process of setting up your Dream Book which also shows you around the membership site and how to use all the tools.
These emails work beautifully for some people… and they don’t work AT ALL for other people. If you find they don’t work for you - send me an email and you and I will figure out a plan that works for you.
As long as you keep showing up, the support is here.
I am HERE, I am ON YOUR SIDE. Any time you get stuck or aren't sure what to do next - you'll have someone to turn to.
"Dreambook is helping me to show up for my dream, to keep connecting with my dream and to take actions that are in line with my dream.
Another thing I personally really need to be able to live my dream, and that Dreambook provides, is structure. For me Dreambook is about creating my own structure to do the necessary inner work, outer work and dream work to be able to walk my path.
By sending me reminders Andrea helps me to do this work, even (or especially) when I am stuck and procrastinating.
By working with Dreambook my dream is actually coming true, step by step."”

I believe you now. Your classes have changed things, shifted energy and changed me: profoundly.”

Here's what you need as a minimum to get started:
1 hour per week or every other week to listen to replays from our coaching calls while folding laundry, having your Sunday morning coffee or tea or whatever you want - this is enough to get you seeing your path in whole new ways!
Since this is an ALCHEMICAL CONTAINER, stepping into it will change things and before you know it you'll be engaging with your dream in new ways.
Here's everything you would need to make the absolute most of this:
- A computer or mobile device with an internet connection to access video lessons and meditations and download worksheets.
- A journal: ANY kind of notebook, whatever you like to use. I do suggest something on the larger side, like printer paper sized, to give you enough space for the processes you'll be doing. But of your muse prefers a smaller notebook then by all means!
- Some time every week: how much time is ENTIRELY up to you. 1-2 hours a week is ideal, but if you have less time you can still use the time you have to make progress with your dream. A lot of us find that when we spend more time doing the Dream Work, we actually end up more productive with the Outer Work. And in all honestly - even just giving your dream 1 hour or less a week moves you forward so much faster than "waiting to have enough time" ever will.
- OPTIONAL: printer, scissors + glue for printing out the printables and glueing them into your journal. If you're not a printables person you can use my worksheets as guides and just do the work in your journal. There are also printable bundles with a whole month's worth of printables, which makes it easier to print everything at once, if you are using a print shop.
I would love to work with you make your creative dreams HAPPEN.
Inside the membership you get live calls with me. But if the call times don’t work (they are usually at 1:pm Central, North America as this seems to reach most of the world) you can leave comments on our private website or email me any time!
I LOVE this work, I am grateful that I get to do it - and want to help you succeed with your dreams.
If you have any questions at all - just email me right here. I’m happy to help you figure out if this is a good fit for you.
