BOOTSTRAPPED: Technology for Creatives

In 5 months, I will teach you how to build a compelling website and landing pages, effectively use customer relationship management (CRM), create professional video to market your offerings and deliver your content/curriculum, create compelling graphics, and engage your audience through blogging.

We begin on November 15th and the course runs through April 15th. You will have a 30-day grace period (ending May 15th) to complete the coursework and submit for your certificate. This is not a certification class - you will receive a Certificate of Completion. Access to the course content will continue through July 31st, giving you plenty of time to review the material.

Bootstrapped comes with a working Workbook. Handouts are made available throughout the duration of our time together. The handouts are designed to be compiled into your Workbook, giving you all of the information you will need to continue to build and maintain your Digital Altar (online presence).

I have nearly 40 years in the information technology industry focused on training and assisting end users (that's you!) with technology for their business needs.

In addition, I manage and maintain the expansive technology needs of both the Intentional Creativity® Foundation and MUSEA Center for Creativity and Consciousness (the Mothership). I’ve been in the industry long enough to know that creatives are not necessarily skilled in technology. Why would they be? Their gift is creativity! But by coaching creatives, I’ve helped hundreds of artists become savvy users of the tech needed to run their businesses while giving their creative endeavors the time and attention it deserves.

Let’s say goodbye to the tech-challenged artist lifestyle.

"Naa Kwarley shares her passion for Intentional Creativity with confidence and fun. When she calls in connection with the ancestors, she speaks powerfully and eloquently, guiding those in her presence to a deeper personal connection. This is complimented by her playful spirit, holding space for joy and pleasure while evoking deep wisdom. From art journal jammin’, to medicine painting, to women’s circle guide, and sacred technology creations, Naa Kwarley is a true Creative DIVA (Divinely Inspired by the Vision of the Ancestors)."

"Sangoma Naa Kwarley Amissah is a truly legendary woman! She is brilliantly intelligent, immensely talented, and a fiercely devoted sister to the Intentional Creativity community. Her artistry and crafting skills are deep and varied; she can learn anything she puts her hand to, and her creations are unique and beautiful. Her innate Wysdom, combined with her passion for helping women learn how to be their own healers, makes her a powerful force for good in this world. She makes the world a better place every day simply by shining her light so others can guide themselves home to themselves. She is caring, compassionate, and patient, and I wholeheartedly recommend her creative offerings with a mighty love and without reservation."

We start out with a plan - a Vision Plan Book... The Vision Plan Book is a visual map of your online presence from conception through design to launch. Using word + image, you will create a roadmap that guides you from "what do I need and what is all this techno mumble jumble?" to "I am confident in setting up, managing, and maintaining my website, CRM, LMS, and more!"

As a creative, you understand the impact of creating layers in your artwork. You understand how important it is to tend to your project. A Digital Altar is no different! It is simply your online creative space. A sacred threshold to the gifts that you have to offer to your community.

Bootstrapped will show you the path to manifesting a beautiful Digital Altar representative of you and your offerings. You will build your altar layer by layer until you feel it is complete. And just like a finished painting that needs to be tended at times (proper temperatures, out of direct sunlight, dusted regularly, etc.), you will tend to your Digital Altar as needed.

We set up automations to do most of the work. When you have a new offering, you will have to set it up once, and allow the automations to walk your Beloveds through the process. It's just that simple.

Hi I’m Liz,

I love to create graphics, short videos and animations to express my message, creativity, and to engage others. My approach to digital creation is similar to my approach to a page or canvas – I work in layers, and will be inviting you to do the same. Experimenting, playing, comparing possibilities, one step leads to the next until you have something that feels aligned, exciting, and connected to your message and vision for the project you’re presenting.

We are visual beings – they say a picture speaks a thousand words. My hope is to share simple yet FUN tips and tricks that you can implement with ease to feel more connected with your graphics on your webpage, social media posts, course delivery system, emails, and more. You’re adding personalized beauty that is YOU to each of these digital touch points. You want your graphics to resonate deeply with your guests, especially if they aren’t aware of the complexity of the layers, because in the end, it looks so very simple. YOU CAN DO THIS – and it not only doesn’t have to be hard, it gets to be fun!

I'm an active Guild Member, Certified Intentional Creativity Teacher, Coach, and Red Thread Guide. I am currently working towards certification completion for Animystica (Cura) and The Quickening (Wisdom-Keeper). I also am part of the Intentional Creativity Foundation's staff.

And I am an entrepreneur, like you! I love color and experimentation so much that I make my own Luscious Handmade Watercolour Paints. I also share a different perspective on colour theory, interwoven with Intentional Creativity teachings, through Paint with heART.

I am thrilled to be on this journey with you, and look forward to sharing what I do, so that you may infuse your Digital Altar with intention through experimentation and playful layering.

I am offering 2 bonus options to up level your tech even further:

Private Classroom + Community: Learn the tools needed to create a private classroom (and further automate your technology) and community (off of Facebook or other social media sites). Private Classroom + Community is a group coaching addition. Add this package for just $750

I am already using a CRM or other technology. What are the specific technologies that will be offered?

I understand that some of you may have already set up some of the technology you use in your business. While the technologies offered in this program may not be the same technologies you are currently using, the principles and strategies I teach can be applied to any platform. These are the technologies offered for the core BOOTSTRAPPED course:

Canva for your graphics
Movavi for video creation and editing
All-In-One Website/CRM/Classroom/Community Platform - TBA
Zoom Hosting skills
Blogging consistently to attract new leads

What is the course schedule?

This is a virtual course held over 5 months via a private classroom so it’s as easy as signing up to get full access to our course portal. The course portal will host all of the course modules, including our live connection calls. A schedule of live connection calls + curriculum release dates will be provided prior to the start of class.

While not exactly self-paced - there are regular, weekly live gatherings on Zoom - all content is recorded and available to you for 3 months after the course ends.

I am enrolled in Color of Woman. How will this affect my taking this course?

As a Color of Woman Graduate (2013), instructor for Color of Woman 2025, and current graduate-enrollee of this year's course, I understand your concern with workload. Color of Woman is an intense program with 5 large paintings + verbose content! However, Bootstrapped is designed to be in alignment with the goals and potentials of the Color of Woman content.

We do not begin until you are more than half-way through Color of Woman training - we begin in Month 5 of Color of Woman. You are taking the teacher training course to launch a career teaching Intentional Creativity (or augment your existing teachings). Bootstrapped uses images from your Color of Woman paintings in our Canva module, as well as targets setting up your website/landing page and email automations in alignment with your required 13-step teaching class that you will offer to your Beloveds in order to certify in Color of Woman.

What happens if I take longer than 5 months to finish the course?

Don’t worry, you’ll have access to the course portal for 3 months after the course ends. This means you can re-watch each virtual class as many times as you like during that window. However you space it out, I highly recommend you complete every session.

If you plan to submit your work to receive your Bootstrapped Certificate of Completion, you will need to complete and submit all required coursework within 3 months of the course completion. Should you need additional time, you will have 6 months to complete the coursework, which incurs a $50/month administrative fee. If you are unable to submit your completed coursework in this timeframe, you will need to register for the next session of Bootstrapped.
