Transform Your Freelance Writing into a Thriving Creative Business

Unlock the secrets to high earnings, creative freedom, and a fulfilling writer’s lifestyle with our proven group coaching program.

Step into the writer’s life you deserve with Powerhouse Writers Group Coaching. Our program is specifically designed to help ambitious writers like you break free from the cycle of under-earning, procrastination, and imposter syndrome. With our expert guidance, you’ll learn how to build a profitable and sustainable writing business that aligns with your passion for creativity and your desire for freedom.

Imagine a writer’s life where

You trust your ability to create your future. You still sometimes hear, but no longer heed, your inner critic. You at times feel doubt, but understand it’s part of the process.

You’ve honed your self-discipline and consistency to work on your dream. You’ve learned how to manage your tendency to procrastinate. You’re willing to work for the freedom to be yourself and to live your truth.

You spend your days reading, writing, and making sure you can support yourself. You choose the hours you get to sleep, the hours you work, and those you dedicate to your creative projects. By focusing on making the most possible per hour, you buy time to exercise, meditate, and write creatively.

When adventure calls, you get to give yourself permission to answer. Your vacation time is approved by you.

You get to be the same person at work you are at home. You work with people you respect, people who inspire you, and they appreciate what you do for them. You’re part of a thriving writing community.

You’re proud of yourself. You are a writer.

Ok, so maybe you’re not there yet.

You feel powerless. You feel like there are so many writers, why would anyone care what you have to say? Why would anyone pay you to write? 

You worry you started too late. Or you don’t live in the right place. You don’t know where to start. It seems like you have to be a published writer to be a published writer. Because there’s no clear path, you feel paralyzed by anxiety.

You’ve tried to join writing groups. Tried pitching on your own. Tried the writing job boards and only found jobs that wanted to pay you the same wage a first grader makes taking out the trash. 

There’s no shame in being at this stage. It’s hard to know what you don’t know. They don’t teach this stuff in MFAs.

You don’t have to reinvent the wheel. You can get the mentorship you need to recognize your individual gifts, the plan you need to take the first steps and build a foundation, and the accountability to follow through.

The solution is to build your community, find the guidance you need, and create the frameworks and tools to make your writing business thrive. 

If you’re looking for a freelance coach, you can stop now. Paulette Perhach is the real deal. She’s funny and direct, knowledgeable and generous.

I now do better work more efficiently, just because of things she taught us.

I call her class my ‘take myself seriously’ class, and that might be the greatest takeaway of all — that I can grow and manage this business the way that I want, as long as I put in the right kind of work. She taught me what that looks like.
