FALLOW FIELDS
I love books. They are filled with stories and information that teach me many things, including realizations about myself. The process of reading helps me be quiet and still ... as I cultivate a beautiful fallow field within me.

A field that is over-worked and over-stimulated can grow hardly anything. A fallow field is one that is allowed to rest and heal and truly prepare to grow.

BOOK-BASED MENTORING
Sage Creative is a program for individuals looking for a tailored mentoring experience. It is driven by books ... as we read them, write about them, and develop deep self-awareness as we discuss them together.

Sage Creative is not about launching a business or growing a brand. Sage Creative is about creating space to read and think, and identifying lessons from the readings that heighten self-awareness.

PROCESS
To apply, please send me an email that contains one to two paragraphs explaining the condition of your inner field in the present moment. My email address is jenny(at)crescendoh(dot)com.

Once I receive the email, I will schedule a FaceTime or Skype discussion with you that lasts about 15 minutes. After that discussion, I will assess whether we are a good fit to move forward together. If I feel after the application and the initial discussion that you are looking for something that this mentoring program does not provide (e.g., networking tools, business marketing ideas, etc.) I will recommend that we not move forward. If I think we are a good fit, I'll recommend that we do. Either way, I'll notify you. 

For those with whom I do move forward, we will officially BEGIN by way of your single session purchase.

I will then send you an email and assign a book for you to read. I will also read the book. Afterward, you will be asked to write me a letter discussing what you discovered through the book. I will then write a letter back to you responding to your thoughts as well as sharing the insights that I gain from the book. Throughout this reading and thinking and writing process, we will exchange texts/emails that develop organically, as we share points of awareness that occur. To finish the program, we will get back on FaceTime or Skype for a final discussion that lasts about 50 minutes. (If you happen to live near Santa Ana, California, and would like the final discussion to be in person, we can arrange for that.)

A complete Sage Creative single session BEGINS after the initial 15-minute discussion and the purchasing of a single session. The program ENDS with the final 50-minute discussion. (In other words, your initial email application and our initial 15-minute discussion cost nothing.)
