Creative Recovery
for deep-feeling artists, mentors & misfits
Find your creative survival pattern
What’s holding your creativity back might not be what you think.
Every creative has a hidden survival pattern, a way your mind protects you when expression feels risky.
Take the quiz to discover yours, and see the hidden strengths inside it.
SAIN is the method for creative recovery, giving artists, educators, and communities the tools to thrive, adapt, and create with resilience in a changing world.

The Seed.
The Seed is where creatives reclaim self-trust and build the work and life they’ve always wanted.
Who is SAIN for?
For the ones who...
Keep starting and stopping, even though they care deeply
Are full of ideas, but afraid to be seen
Feel creatively capable but emotionally scattered
Are performing, publishing, or producing but something feels off
Want to create again, not for validation, but from truth
Are leading others while quietly burning out
Are tired of performing a version of themselves that no longer fits
Whether you're returning after a long pause
or succeeding on the outside while unravelling inside, SAIN is for you.
Meet Stacy
From performing in the creative industries to designing degrees and training the lecturers who taught them, Stacy saw the same pattern everywhere.
Brilliant, dedicated people losing their voice under the weight of pressure, perfectionism, and a broken system that doesn’t prepare creatives for the realities of making and sustaining their work.
She built SAIN, and its signature SAIN Method™ as the missing curriculum, giving artists, mentors, and deep-feeling creatives the resilience, emotional tools, and safe structure to create work they’re proud of without burning out or disappearing on themselves.
Because without being resourced, grounded, and emotionally steady, you can’t take the creative risks that growth demands and without risk, your work — and you — stop evolving.
Testimonials

Stacy is a fantastic instructor. She takes the time to get to know you and makes you feel comfortable with being vulnerable. I learned so much about myself and grew not only as a musician, but as a person.

Stacy is one of the best teachers I have ever had! Her approach and techniques are like fish in the water for me. She always finds the best way to work through issues I may come across. I always feel relaxed and motivated to learn something new with her and I can see each lesson the progress I have made! She's flexible, very attentive, open, and gentle when it comes to any communication. I'm always excited to meet her!!!

I always really enjoyed working with Stacy to tackle problems, as she approaches them with posivitiy and creativity, always looking for the opportunity for growth in a difficult situation. Importantly, she makes this process fun. She is a very experienced teacher and mentor who uses her skills to promote safety as a starting point for learning journeys. Partnered with her own curiosity for learning and development, I am excited to see this coming together in SAIN.

Working with Stacy always feels comfortable, safe and something to look forward to. As a perfectionist in my instrument, with the help of Stacy I’ve felt comfortable in making mistakes during our lessons. Stacy has taught me a lot about the root elements of my voice and how to use them to shine even brighter with my voice. I would and have recommended Stacy to artists who are really hard on themselves and therefore have trouble with performing for example.
