Most business advice doesn't consider the needs of bodies and brains that work a little differently. That's why I've made it my mission to support your creative journey whilst protecting your energy.
Hi! I'm Elysian, the founder of Nirvanas Arts Collective. I'm here to be your mentor but also your biggest cheerleader.
I'm a creative business mentor with a background in therapeutic art practices, support work and creative business ownership. I find business advice to be too rigid and lacks consideration when it comes to bodies and brains that work a little differently; my approach is much more holistic. Whilst you can expect to find practical business advice, my mentoring frameworks are extremely individualised with a focus on sustainable, wellbeing-focused strategy that supports your long-term business success.
Whilst the Collective supports those who are neurodivergent and/or disabled (no diagnosis needed), my approach can also benefit carers, those in burnout and anyone seeking a better work-life balance or holistic approach to creative business development.
