Scheduling for Making Space has always been a challenge. It’s near impossible to have a recurring weekly time that works for an entire group of people. This summer, I'm going to experiment with an asynchronous version. You’ll get the same workbook and pre-recorded videos but instead of everyone having to show up to live calls at a specific time, I'll be recording weekly videos addressing each of your questions and needs for that week.
I’m pretty sure this is going to work well because I had a few participants in the spring cohort of Making Space that weren’t able to attend any of the live sessions and they still felt like part of the community. I was able to cover any questions they had in the recordings of the group sessions. They didn’t feel as though they missed out on any aspect of the group not being on the calls.
Since this is a trial run, I’m offering it for a really discounted price ($397) as I work out the kinks. It will be half the cost of the current version of Making Space. In the fall, it will revert back to the current price ($797).
If I’m being honest, a lot of the motivation for this experiment comes from me trying to take care of my own needs. When trying to find a time that works for everyone, it usually ends up being in the evening, a time of day when I’m most depleted and have the lowest energy. That doesn’t feel good for me and I don’t feel like I’m giving my best to the people in the group.
I already had a DIY version of the course, which you’re still welcome to purchase at an even lower price than this introductory rate, but it is completely self paced and has no interaction from me or a community. With this asynchronous version, you’ll be able to do the course work at your own pace, but I’ll be providing weekly structure and accountability. You’ll receive answers to your specific questions and be part of the community.
(Reflections from the spring 2024 Making Space participants)
Here’s the breakdown of what you’ll get in the asynchronous version:
a 30 page workbook
12+ pre-recorded videos
access to an active community
weekly check-ins and exercises to complete
answers to your specific questions each week in a recorded video. There is no live call you have to attend.
just to put faces to names, we will do two live calls over the course of the 8 weeks. If you can make them, great, if not, no worries.
This version of Making Space is a fit for you if:
You’re used to communicating in online discussion groups like Slack, Discord, or even group texts.
You can’t make a regularly scheduled weekly commitment.
You’ve wanted to take Making Space in the past, but the scheduled time never worked for you.
You want to get clarity around your style, edit your closet, and learn how to shop mindfully.
