Your Creative Life Hasn't Left. 

It's Been Waiting. 

The Creative Compass measures your current relationship to five conditions that make creative vitality possible. ​

What if it isn't a discipline problem? 

Quite often, people think the answer is that they just aren't creative enough, they need to try harder, commit more, get a better routine, more willpower, the right habit tracker.  

But that's rarely what lets creativity come back online. It has its own specific conditions — and for most people, at least one is quietly asking for attention.

CREATIVITY ASKS TO BE TENDED TO NOT TAMED.

What You'll Learn From 

The Creative Compass: 

🌿A clear first step to strengthen your relationship to your creative life — immediately

🌿 Where you stand across all five conditions supports creativity, and the one that needs your attention most right now

🌱 Why this keeps happening, even when you've tried discipline, routines, or willpower before

This isn't just an online quiz. It's a compass for a part of your life that's easy to lose track of.

 It begins with understanding where you are.

Where This Work Can Lead

The Creative Compass is a new reflection, but it's built from the same practices I've been using with coaching clients, workshops, and writing circles for years. Here are a few things people have shared after engaging with this work.

"Working with Kelly Jo  changed the way I relate to myself and my creative practice.  It taught me that I was a person worthy of love and that creativity required a container that could be nourished and protected. "

- Sky F. 
Teacher, Writer, Coaching Client

"Sessions with Kelly Jo have been a game changer, helping me prioritize my own creative journey . Because of our work together,  I started playing my guitar again, applied to join my town's writers guild, and created a morning writing ritual. The impact has been undeniable."

-  Kristina H.
Executive Leader of Education, Coaching Client

Meet Kelly Jo 

Kelly Jo Lillian is the founder of Liberated Creative and creator of The Creative Compass™.

She believes that when we lose touch with our creativity, we often lose touch with ourselves — and with our deepest sense of aliveness. After more than twenty years helping people reconnect with themselves through writing, movement, theatre, and education, she developed The Creative Compass™ to help people understand the patterns that shape their relationship with creativity and the conditions that allow it to flourish.

Her path ran earning a BFA in acting to twelve years as an actor and director, — including six productions of The Vagina Monologues, putting dozens of women on stage for the first time — to an MFA in special education and  eleven years teaching in NYC public schools, where she became known for helping students find their voice as writers and cultivating community within the classroom. Her certification and training as a Body Temple Dance Teacher, a somatic movement practice, later deepened her understanding of how the nervous system shapes creativity long before the mind does.

Kelly Jo now leads group offerings, circles, courses, and one-on-one sessions for people who feel disconnected from their gifts and passions and want to return to themselves in a way that is honest, supported, and sustainable — guiding them to access their inner voice, reconnect with their body, and take meaningful steps toward lives aligned with their gifts and in service to the collective.
