A Creative Cohort for Healthcare Professionals

The Artist’s Way Cohort with Introspective Spaces

Many healthcare professionals spend years caring for others, often at the expense of their own creative exploration. Over time, hobbies fade, reflection becomes rare, and imagination feels secondary to responsibility.

Introspective Spaces is offering a 12-week creative cohort specifically for healthcare workers and mental health professionals beginning March 9th 2026. The program is inspired by The Artist’s Way, a well-known creative development framework by Julia Cameron that uses structured reflection, journaling, and weekly exercises to help people reconnect with their creativity.

This is not therapy, and it is not a traditional art class. It is a guided small-group experience built around reflection, accountability, and creative exploration within a supportive healthcare-focused community.

Participants move through weekly creative prompts and discussions together, supported by:

  • Small virtual reflection groups (4–6 healthcare peers)

  • Protected time for personal creative practice

  • A broader national community of clinicians

  • Four live continuing education webinars (4 CEs available, CA BRN Provider #18000)

  • An asynchronous option for those with demanding schedules

What stands out to me is the emphasis on restoring creative identity within the context of caregiving. In a profession that often prioritizes productivity and efficiency, this creates intentional space to pause and reconnect.

If you are a healthcare professional who feels disconnected from your creative side, or who is craving thoughtful community with others who understand the pressures of the system, this may be worth exploring.

There is something powerful about tending to creativity alongside others who share the same professional realities.
