One – One Coaching Package for Artists
Are you stuck in a negative mindset around your art?
Do you go around in a procrastination/motivation loop when all you want to do is paint?
Do you find it impossible to talk about your art without dying a little inside?
Do you often compare your work to others and fall short in your own mind?
Maybe you are new to painting or maybe you have been learning for some time. Attending classes, taking courses, painting and practicing technique.
Yet despite all of this, something is stopping you from progressing.
Deep down you know that what’s holding you back just may be your own mindset and approach. But figuring out exactly what needs to change for you and the steps to take can be hard on your own.

Yet despite all of this, something is stopping you from progressing.
Deep down you know that what’s holding you back just may be your own mindset and approach. But figuring out exactly what needs to change for you and the steps to take can be hard on your own.
But here’s the question…
If there was a predicticatble, step by step method for you to confidently push aside the mental tripwires that hold you back from becoming the artist you secretly wish to be,
Would you feel confident to take that path? Well, if you are anything like me the answer is.. maybe!
Maybe, if you had someone who could hold your hand through the process, someone you trusted, someone with the right amount of empathy and encouragement and the ability to help you see through your our own excuses.
That’s why I have persuaded my good friend and longtime collaborator Al McBride to help you. I know you may not know him but I trust him, I have seen what he can do and I know that his empathy and friendly approach to coaching creatives and his experience can offer you that extra bit of one to one support to help you fly!
Let Alistair help you overcome the issues that are holding you back.

“Al, is an extremely curious, perceptive listener, picking up on all sorts of unintended clues and gaps in my ambitions or dreams and the models I’d created for achieving them. His kind and thoughtful observations served to make me really look differently at what I thought was my position and plan. Not only this, but the whole experience was wrapped up in such enjoyable, inspiring conversations. “

Alistair McBride
Alistair McBride’s love of art prompted him to major in Art History before becoming an art dealer for many years.
This all sound marvellous, and it was, until Alistair discovered that the thing that really made him happy was helping creatives and others to find their way.
Following a foundation in psychotherapy and counselling, he moved into Strategic Intervention Coaching, a highly results directed synthesis of multiple psychological schools and approaches. The balance of empathy and creativity with practical, actionable, outcome focused strategies greatly suits his personality and philosophy.
Now as a professional facilitator and coach of the Goliath method, Al works with creatives and small business owners. He also regularly lectures in Cognitive Behavioural Coaching at University College Cork’s Master’s course on Personal and Management Coaching.

5 Ways To Get More From Your Painting Time

Is coaching for You?
How long will the coaching program last?
There’s some flexibility here. The three sessions run for 45, 60 and 45 minutes consecutively and there are some resources to work on in between. You and Alistair will schedule times that suit you both, (daytime or evening) to complete these sessions over a time period that works for you both.
What if I talk to Alistair and I don't think this coaching program is for me?
Not every client is a good fit for every coach. Have a look at the interview conversations Alistair did with Róisín. If you think you’d get along with him you probably will, if you don’t then this program probably isn’t right for you.
Will Alistair be able to advise and give me feedback on painting?
That’s not really the purpose of this coaching. While he knows a great deal about art, this is really about helping artists to improve their thinking and behaviours.
Will Alistair give me advice of my art business?
Like the previous question he can but that’s not really the purpose of the coaching. Also, Róisín will have a new course coming soon around selling art that may be helpful.
Is Alistair a psycologist, life coach or an artist?
Actually Al is like a hybrid of the three. He’s not an artist himself but he is skilled in helping artists to solve problems they have so they can be the best artist they can be.
You haven't listed my problems specifically. Can I talk to Alistair about other art related issues?
Most certainly. The beauty of one to one coaching is that each session is tailor-made to you especially.
