Attention: Adventuresome Women
I’m Katie Curtin, and I'm sitting here in my home office in my beautiful home in Mexico, inviting you to join my in-depth, small-group
"Older And Bolder" Mastermind Program.
This program is perfect for you if :
- are one of those women, who’ve led full and successful lives, yet feel ready for the next adventure.
- you want to embark on a journey with other women to make this phase of your life, something very precious and worthwhile.
- “You ain't seen nothing yet!" is your motto, and you have a range of potential that you've just barely realized.

The Challenges of These Years
You may be encountering loss of loved ones from life partners, family members, to dear friends. You know that journeying through grief is a poignant part of this later stage of life.
Maybe you're caring for an ailing mother or father, and find it a rollercoaster ride, nurturing yourself as well as your loved one. Perhaps you still have children in the house or a partner who is needing special care and support.
Or maybe you are your own, and while you have friends and family, you are scared of being alone in your later years, and at times you feel lonely right now.
Perhaps you feel increasingly invisible in this youth-oriented culture, unappreciated for the wisdom and experience you've garnered over the years.
While you've done a good job of keeping healthy up to now, you wonder what’s in store for you as you age. Perhaps you’ve watched somebody you deeply cared for deteriorate and become a shell of themselves. You don’t accept that growing older has to contain a litany of aches and pains, or loss of mental acuity, and are actively exploring ways to keep healthy and fit on all levels.

At the same time, you’ve got projects you want to do, places you want to see, items on your list that you want to get going on.
“Your 40s are good. Your 50s are great. Your 60s are fab. And 70 is f*@king awesome!” ~Helen Mirren
Is this You?
- You are a woman who is entering into a later chapter of your life. You don’t want to build empires (in fact, you’ve always disliked this term).
- You want to continue to contribute your creativity, and talents to the community while respecting the different rhythm and energy of these years.
- You have no intention of burning yourself out, and know that a lot more can be accomplished sometimes by slowing down in this all too speeded-up world.
- You've got some ideas and maybe even some definite plans, but you still have a lot of questions about how to navigate successfully this next period of your life.
- While helping others gives you both pleasure and meaning, you no longer want to be constrained by the need to please others.
- You’ve worked hard all your life and now you also want time for fun, relaxation, creativity and travel.
- Despite friends and family, you feel the need for more connection, and a deeper sense of community.
- You want to both live life on your own terms and make a difference or leave a legacy
As well:
You are deeply concerned about what’s going on in the world, and want to leave your children and grandchildren a planet where they can thrive. You want to be part of bringing about change on the larger level, as well as “being the change.”
Perhaps you have more than enough income to sustain yourself in the coming years, perhaps you want to grow your heart-based business, or launch new creative projects. Maybe you are looking to move to another country, a place in the sun, where your money can stretch further and you can live a more relaxed and enjoyable lifestyle.
Even though you may have formally "retired," from your previous career, you are not the kind who ever retires in the traditional sense. As long as you live, you want to be engaged in life, involved in creative, community, and activist projects, and making a difference.

The Program in a Nutshell:
1. 90-minute Private Kick-off Call with me where we'll talk about your vision for 2019 and beyond, along with your goals and challenges. I'll work with you on a plan and some immediate action steps to get you moving on the projects you are passionate about.
2. Creative Life Design Virtual Retreat Day (at the beginning of the course) This virtual retreat day in conjunction with the private kick-off call will get you up and running for a special 2019.
3. Two 7-day retreats in Veracruz, Mexico in early March and late October (hotels, meals and retreat activities included) These retreats are at the core of this program. Here you get to connect deeply with the other women in this group. You will explore through mask making, journaling, improvisation, and other creative activities this next stage of your life. These unforgettable week-long experiences in beautiful rustic settings will be full of self-pampering, along with delightful cultural excursions to neighbouring towns and villages.
4. 90-minute Monthly Group Trainings, Mindset Work, and Energy Healings on issues of aging and becoming an elder facilitated by me, and or an invited expert. These will take place on the second Wednesday of the month, at 12:00 pm Pacific Time.
Topics may include:
- "Clearing Out the Old: Releasing Physical and Emotional Clutter"
- “Cultivating Your Creative and Artistic Self”
- "Friendships and Community: Breaking the Loneliness Cycle in Later Years"
- "Cultivating Resiliency through Grief and Loss"
- "Dating, Sex, and Intimate Relationships As You Age"
- "Whooping it Up: Fun,Celebration, and Your Bucket List"
- "Looking after Yourself While Taking Care of Others"

- "Financial Well Being"
- "Living Abroad and Travel"
- "Witch, Crone, Bitch: The Magical Power of Not Giving a F___"
- Beauty Within and Without: Breaking the Myths of How Older Women Look and Dress"
These sessions will give you a chance to explore some of the myths and stereotypes about aging, and discuss with other women all the possibilities and opportunities open to women at this stage of life, along with the habits and lifestyle choices that cultivate health, vitality, and purpose. These calls will be both informative and transformative, with a chance to release cultural and personal limits through the energy healing component of these calls.
5. Monthly Mastermind Calls on the fourth Wednesday of the month at 12:00 pm Pacific Time for about 90 minutes, you get to share with the other women of the group, ask questions, and discuss your wins and challenges in your creative projects, business, or life. You get a chance to have feedback from not only myself but the other participants.
6. Monthly 45-minute Coaching Sessions with me. You’ll get a lot of attention in our small groups, but it always helps to sit down by yourself with a coach to figure out in detail your overall framework, and strategies for getting to your next level, or a private talk or to resolve challenging personal issues.
7. Monthly "Get It Done" Days” to help you implement around the monthly themes, as well as do stuff that you keep putting off. These days are designed to help you get momentum and to keep you accountable. They are great fun, and increase your connection with group members, as well being an excellent way to get things done. You'll be surprised at just how much these sessions can make a difference!
8. Private Facebook group where you get to share with the group any time, ask opinions and get feedback.
9. Free access to the recordings of some of my most exciting webinars, interviews and classes from my online Creativity Cafe, and my most successful coaching programs
10. Free access to my Ten Days to Ten Thousand Program: If you have a small business, or creative project you want to raise money for in the quickest, most efficient way possible, as well as create high-level programs and products you'll find this super useful. I'll be running this program at least once during the year, most likely in September. This alone could make you back (and more) the money you invest in this program.
11. Breaking Money Spells Virtual Retreat Day: This along with the monthly group mindset and energy session this powerful day will help you release blocks around your finances, that may be limiting your capacity to enjoy this chapter of your life.
12. A Chance to Showcase Projects, Workshops or Classes you are doing to the group. If you feel ready, and I think you are a good fit, I will gladly share one of your offerings to my Creativity Cafe audience of creatives, social entrepreneurs, healers, and activists.

"Katie, my experience with your “Get Your Creative Project Done” program was nothing short of fabulous. You are clearly a GENIUS: you have the gift of really sensing what is wanting to emerge from a person. I appreciated your ability to think bigger than I can for myself, and got some great ideas on how I can expand my work in ways I never thought about.You helped me break everything down into small bits that seem more manageable...Your intuition and wisdom, your compassion and genuine interest in me and my work allowed me to move past my demons in a way I have not been able to with other coaches. With you, I took many steps to get one of my most treasured dreams into the world: to help people realize their radiant inner beauty while using holistic, natural means which don’t damage the environment. I intend to call on your coaching services for a long time to come, and have already recommended this program to friends." Katrina B., Beauty and Makeup Consultant, New York City

Retreat 2: October-November 2020

This retreat takes place at a special time of the year for Mexicans, the time when they honour their relatives who have died, through the Day of the Dead festivities.
In this retreat, you'll get to participate in some beautiful local festivals, as well as dive deep with the group through journaling, art, and ritual, around the themes of death, loss and creating "joy from sorrow."
During these seven days you will have the opportunity to journey deep into your losses, and out of this discover grief's alchemy, the gems that each loss in life contains.

* There are even possibilities of extending your stay to see more of the area. You can also avail yourself of health and dental treatments with trusted dentists, doctors and holistic health practitioners at prices likely to be way below what you would pay in your country. The savings here by themselves might cover the costs of this entire program.
- You are an older woman who is looking to come into your own and put your needs on the table.
- You see that this program can give you the kind of support you need for the coming year. This program is asking for an investment of your time and money.
- You have a passion project or projects that you want to work on for the year. This project could be anything from launching a business to taking the initiative in an activist cause to writing a book, plan and research moving to another country, preparing an art exhibit, or something else you’ve always wanted to do.
- You are willing to spend a few hours per week working on this project, supported by the accountability structures of the group. Only by taking the time to focus on your emerging dreams for your life, will you begin to get momentum, and achieve success.
- You are willing to be a support for others in the group. I want women who will generously give to the group, sharing their ideas, wisdom, and resources.
- You are willing and able to show up to the mastermind calls and share how things are going for you, your successes and where you are getting stuck.
- You want to explore your wild side, throw off the shackles of pleasing others, and peel off all the layers that keep you from being who you really are.

"Katie really helped me see how I had been perpetuating an economy of scarcity in my life and helped me drill down into core beliefs to turn around my relationship to creativity. She combines a resolute practicality with a deep faith in human potential and in the power of our creative spirit to radically change our lives. Coaching with Katie helped me turn a new page in my life (and in my novel)." August Tarrier, Award Winning Writer and Editor

"Katie, your coaching support in a group environment was fabulous. It helped me focus and stay on track with my creative process and accountable for my goals.I enjoyed our weekly check-ins as well as the alternating personal coaching, which drew on your years of training and life experience and various techniques, including Z-point clearing, which I found useful to clear old habits. This program is a great balance of group dynamics and personal attention—the best of two worlds! I am happy to say I completed my first relaxation CD and it is now featured on iTunes and CD baby! I also have almost completed the e-book I started in the 90 days! So I did two creative projects! WOW! Thank you and I look forward to joining your next program for my next creative project."
