Dani austin
Process-Informed Creative Coaching
Dani specializes in project management support, guiding you through the nitty gritty of envisioning a project and seeing it all the way through. They would be honored to work together to set goals, timeline, and encourage you.
Dani incorporates project management, critical theory & praxis, democratic pedagogy, political and social movement organizing, queer ecology, mindfulness, and art-making into their work.
Dani is also Co-Founder of Conspire Studio, more here.
“Dani is a guide, a healer, and an anthropologist. They will help you extract the beautiful parts of yourself you've forgotten, buried or never knew existed. I experienced it myself, in just a few short weeks. They helped me release long-held fears and self-judgments that had been silencing my creative voice. In Dani's presence and care, I felt safe, heard and witnessed in ways I'd never experienced before, and the result has been life-changing. Wherever you are in your creative journey — especially those who've felt hesitant to call themselves creative, let alone an artist — Dani helped me find the way back to my creative self. I cannot recommend their practice enough.”

“Working with Kim's unique creative processing methods was my favorite part of the week. Being with them felt grounding, truth-filled and real. I felt safe to explore topics close to my heart through somatic experiencing and painting and Kim was an attentive, attuned, confident guide to my processes. I came out of four sessions of creative exploration feeling inspired, challenged, tuned in to my needs and goals and also creatively inspired as a creative, multi-passionate person. They are amazing at what they do. You will be in great hands.”
