Key Details

63 audio lessons

Amplify includes 63 compact audio lessons (10-20 minutes each) to guide you through the process of upgrading your creative flow. All lessons are personally recorded by me (Steve). Each lesson ends with an exercise to help your start to apply the ideas.

You can stream and/or download every lesson

You get every audio lesson in streamable and downloadable formats. Go at whatever pacing works for you since the deep dive is self-paced. Listen to the lessons whenever and wherever you want, such as while commuting or going for a walk. This will accommodate any schedule.

Weekly group Zoom call recordings

When Amplify first launched, Steve hosted 8 live Zoom calls for members to share their experiences going through the course week by week, to share extra tips, and to do live Q&A with Steve. All 8 call recordings are yours to keep. This gives you lots of extra support for applying the Amplify ideas.

A caring, encouraging, and playful experience

Amplify has a caring, encouraging, and playful style. The lessons gently guide you to understand and upgrade your inner creative frames as well as your flow of real creative output. This is a deeply personal experience that focuses on moving beyond creative anxiety, developing and maintaining action-oriented flow through your creative projects, and connecting more deeply with your audience. Amplify invites you to discover new truths about your approach to creative productivity, so you can flow into creative action like never before. Leave your creative blocks in the past.

Upgrade your creative flow one lesson at a time

This is a hands-on deep dive, not a passive experience. Every audio lesson is followed by written workbook exercises to deepen your self-awareness, increase your clarity, and amplify your creative output. The course workbook also includes a one-page text summary of each lesson, so you can conveniently review what you've learned.

Thorough and comprehensive

Day by day for 9 weeks, we'll reconstruct the mental models and frames you use to approach your creative projects. As you discover new models which are more effective than your old ones, you'll gradually release old thought patterns that were previously holding you back. You'll also gain plenty of practice with empowering frames to help your true creative self emerge.

A co-creative experience

Instead of creating all of the lessons in advance, they were co-created with the first group of Amplify members, who were encouraged to share feedback and ideas along the way. These ideas were often incorporated into lessons. So Amplify was developed with the help and input of many creative minds. More than 300 people enrolled in the course during its first two weeks.

The bottom line is that you'll get better results if you go all-in with a genuine commitment, and I'm a lot happier to work with this caliber of people.
