and how to guarantee you actually do
When you combine solid strategy with courageous creativity, you experience Job satisfaction, Joy, & Freedom.
You can learn strategies, new approaches, and mix in your unique experience to create a really successful creative career without sacrificing your life.
People think that in order to succeed, you need to
do more, work more, be more.
That couldn't be further from the truth.
While working as a designer in the fashion industry, I found myself battling a corporate system not set up for creative success.
I worked 10-16 hour days, 6-7 days a week, without a dime of overtime. I've even worked an entire month with only 1 day off.
10 Years ago I was broke, miserable, and overwhelmed
I learned the hard way that more time does not equal more money, the next promotion or being seen as valuable at work.

You're stronger than you think you are. But if you're anything like me, you need help to take your super power to the next level. You just want someone to tell you what works.

I'm Grace Kim,
Spontaneous adventurer who loves to surprise & delight strangers & friends, and create with my hands.
I'm a girl who dropped out of college, was told I wouldn't succeed, then went on to create my 6 figure dream career before the age of 30.
Now my mission is to help other designers and creatives build a flourishing career so they too can live a life they love - one abundant in freedom, joy, purpose, and creativity.
hey there!
It took thousands of hours of...
Unpaid overtime, being kicked out of office, thrown under the bus, and even fired from work.
But through all the opportunities and mistakes, successes and “failures," is how I learned to lead, to manage, to understand & negotiate my pay, to produce results effectively, to create opportunities and to do more of what I love.
Once I understood my strengths and got clear in my direction, I created autonomy in my position and made more than enough money to fully be creative at work without feeling any resentment.
but it wasn't always this way.
This program is the only one of its kind because...
it's the first course specifically for Creatives & designers working in corporate
There are many different coaching programs out there but none that address the unique struggles of creatives working for corporate industries.
If you’re going to take ownership of your life outside of you job, you absolutely must learn to take ownership of your life inside of work and move through your fears of change.
this course teaches you essential skills they never taught in school
Art schools don’t teach us this stuff.
They charge tens of thousands of dollars in tuition but don’t equip you with any of the practical tools and skills that are actually required to succeed in the industry. It’s almost criminal.
If you’re going to take ownership of your life outside of you job, you absolutely must learn to take ownership of your life inside of work and move through your fears of change.
This program includes everything you need to build a successful career.
Not only applying what you will learn but sweat equity into your vision is the only way to move the needle. Ultimately, your success is up to you and I'm here to guide you as best I can.

How much time do I have to invest to see results?
I’ll be real, This is high-level strategy. You’ll get a ton out of it just by watching each module, even if you don’t do your homework.
But when it comes to actually seeing transformation in your career, you’ll see results only by taking action and doing the work; committing to a daily practice and sticking to it.
An hour a week is enough for the program itself, but if you take what you learn and implement at work each day, the results will knock your socks off.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is there a set course schedule?
Course + Cohort: There are 5 modules released weekly over the course of 5 weeks. The course itself is self-guided with the exception of weekly live Q&A's with Grace & the Cohort. A schedule will be released prior to when doors open so you know exactly what to expect when. All live videos will be available to access for replay!
Creative Career Course a-la-carte is self-guided so you’ll receive all the modules at once and are able to take the course at your own pace (you have lifetime access to the course and all future updates).
I’m a seasoned designer, will I still benefit from this program?
That depends. Is your career and life where you want it to be? If you answered “no”, then I recommend considering if you need a comprehensive re-boot of your career or if you need focused support through our 1x1 strategy Intensive.
If you’re loving your job, more than happy with your pay, this may not be the program for you.
Feel free to reach out if you want help deciding!
I’m not in fashion design, will this program help me too?
If you have a creative position and working for a company then YES this will. Most of the strategies in this course will actually help anyone in the corporate world but I speak directly to my fellow creatives and get into specifics about using your creative role.
I’m unemployed right now, will this still be helpful?
If you are in the creative professional sphere then absolutely. You won’t be able to put all of these into practice immediately but you will be confident and prepared as you interview and go into your next job.
I don’t work for a huge corporation, will this still apply to me?
Absolutely, this is for anyone who is designing for or doing creative work for a company whether it be big or small.
How does the Money-back Guarantee work?
If by 2pm PST on Tuesday, April 27th, 2021, you decide that the program is not for you for any reason, simply email me your worksheets for Module 1 and 2. If I can't resolve the issue, I'll happily provide a full refund. Please note: I may request additional information to help me learn and grow.
What if I am brand new to my career?
OMG, yes! The best time to take this course is before you’ve been jaded by the corporate world.
What if I can't make the live Q&A's?
No worries here! At the start of the program I’ll survey to find when the best time and day will be for most. But if for whatever reason you can’t make it, the replays will always be available.
