A program for high-performing procrastinators who are ready to scale their business in a way that actually feels like you're in control of your time
no matter how busy life is and MINUS the guilt of doing things last minute
Prepare to experience the power of having deep multi-hour focused work sessions
Where you get your most important tasks like marketing, client prospecting, or bookkeeping done so you can book out your services& save hundreds of hours that were otherwise spent overthinking how to word things as small as emails, consuming more information and courses (when you already have enough), and doom-scrolling.
This is going to help you take the amount of time you spend each month in excruciating anxiety and productivity guilt to a level you barely notice.
Let’s Call It Like It Is
You started a business because you wanted the freedom and flexibility you get from working for yourself and doing work you’re passionate about (instead of writing meaningless powerpoints in a cubical).
But let me take a shot in the dark here and assume you …
- Feel like it takes you 8 hours to do something that should only take 3
- Are overwhelmed with not knowing what to prioritize and always feeling behind (hello wearing 5 different hats, and still not knowing how to do your business taxes)
- Feel like you work best under pressure, but hate that you leave things until the last minute because it causes unnecessary stress and guilt
- Recognize you’re low-balling your services, even though you intellectually know you’re a hard worker
Nodding your head along? Stick with me.
I know you’ve already tried overcoming procrastination before with...
- Pomodoro 25 min timers
- Calendar blocking
- A new organization planner or Project management software
- Implementing self-help book advice like “Eat the frog,” trying to do the hardest task first
- Maybe even talk therapy or paying for accountability
- Or a Business Coaching that gives you the strategies to sign more clients… but that hasn’t changed the whole avoiding client prospecting thing
But I'm guessing, if you're here it means that you're still struggling to implement the things you're supposed to be doing.
And your “I’ll do it tomorrows” are still showing up every time you think about *that* business task that hangs you up (like marketing yourself or raising your prices)
How do I know? Because you're not the only one
My clients also found themselves stuck in this frustrating spot knowing *exactly* what they needed to do more of (client prospecting, publishing a website, creating content, invoicing) and yet it always felt more difficult than it needed to be or like there was another excuse to keep them from to get their most important work done
“I make progress but I am moving way too slow”
“It begins to eat away at my self-confidence when I’m not seeing results it makes me doubt”
“I accumulate lots of videos, hoard info, but am not taking action with it. Maybe I need more…”
”Most of my ideas I feel like I need to do more preparation before doing them”
Nodding your head “yes” in mutual frustration?
Meet Grace Brodeur
I coach high-performing procrastinators who are ready to be in control of starting tasks earlier without needing external motivators so they can ditch the guilt of doing things last minute.
My philosophy is we don’t avoid actions, we avoid feelings, and time management hacks are useless if a healthy sense of self-worth, strong belief systems, and solid emotional management aren’t in place..
I’d be willing to bet you’re frustrated because you’ve tried..
- 30-min timers
- Calendar blocking
- Self-help books like “Eat the Frog”
- The pretty planner
- Talk therapy
- Accountability
I see you and I know you’re here because you don’t want to settle for another 20 years of eat, sleep, procrastinate repeat.
Building the self-accountability to start your days without needing 30-minute timers to motivate you will require a new approach that doesn’t bypass your emotional management and belief systems.
Here’s why:
In my journey to overcoming procrastination, I found the less I focused on my time management and the more I focused on what FEELINGS were causing me to procrastinate, the easier it became to hit the ground running on my most important task every morning *without* the “you’re lazy” voice running in the back of the mind
In the last 4 years, I’ve..
- Helped over 800 high-achieving procrastinators
- Supported a combined online community of 250,000+ individuals
- Never had to send a “Sorry this is late” email
- Ditched any “who am I to do this” imposter syndrome
- Don’t work most Fridays and weekends!
All through taking myself through the same framework I now teach my clients, which I’d love to share with you!
Good news! There is a better option.
That’s exactly why I created Free to Create. So that business owners like you could have a better option when it comes to overcoming procrastination, growing your business, and adding more free time to your calendar. So that instead of feeling your anxiety convince you people are annoyed with you promoting yourself, or that your work isn’t good enough, you feel confident to unapologetically market yourself without spending hours doing it.
Wave goodbye to the procrastinator label and say hello to the Freedom to Create
The only 1-1 x Small group program hybrid that helps high-performing small business owners overcome procrastination without having to touch a 30-minute timer again.
You can have all the strategy in the world, but if your brain confuses publically marketing yourself with getting chased by lions, you’re going to hide from putting yourself out there and tell yourself it’s because you “don’t have enough time”.
It’s time to work with a business and mindset coach who goes beyond telling you to “just do the thing,” but ALSO can address why you haven’t.
What would it be like if you traded those 5-10 hours of procrastination each week for:
- Waking up on a Monday *without* dreading pulling up your to-do list because the size of it no longer overwhelms you
- Responding to clients (whether prospects, proposals, or invoices) in a timely matter because you’re no longer secretly fearing that they’re going to question or reject you
- Delegating your least favorite tasks like bookkeeping, now that you’re booking out your services and can just focus on delivering your expertise
- Feeling confident when people invest in your offers because you know they’re the sh!t and you’re no longer constantly questioning if your services are worth it or discounting your offer
- Marketing yourself on social media like you know you could be so you’re booking out your services instead of just relying on referrals
- Working on your favorite creative hobby (whether that’s writing a book, making art, or your dance classes) instead of feeling like you never have the time for it

“I was really proud of myself. I showed up and for the first time I don’t feel overwhelmed with the feeling of, ‘I don’t know what I’m doing’, or ‘I don’t belong here.’ I’m having a good time and I feel very relaxed and confident.”

FAQs.
Absolutely. This program combines 1-1 coaching with a group mastermind component. The power of shared experiences in overcoming shame and guilt associated with procrastination, coupled with the motivation and support of like-minded entrepreneurs, accelerates your progress. The 1-1 calls allow for deeper exploration and customization of the program to suit your specific needs.
I hold discovery calls to help carefully identify who is an exceptional fit and who is likely not. I will only offer a spot if I am certain I can help you.
Regardless of whether you sell services or products, online or in person, the underlying reasons for avoiding tasks in your business are the same. As an entrepreneur, you face additional fears and challenges compared to someone working a 9-5 job. This program has helped entrepreneurs from various industries overcome avoidance patterns. Whether it’s avoiding financial analysis, tackling difficult emails, releasing work to the public, or starting ambiguous projects, your daily execution will significantly improve with this program.
You will learn strategies to overcome any self sabotage (limiting beliefs, procrastination, people pleasing, overthinking).
You will also receive business strategy guidance so I can support you with growing (if you are trying to expand your business while in the program).
Many of my clients come to me feeling like they’ve exhausted all options. The difference lies in the fact that coaching focuses on action and moving forward, while therapy may provide awareness but not necessarily the guidance to progress. Time management techniques alone are ineffective without addressing the management of your mind and emotions, which is a core aspect of this program. The good news is the previous work is not a waste, rather it’s likely prepped you to see faster results.
Group calls take place twice a month on Tuesdays at 11 am EST. Replays are provided afterward.
I have worked with clients who have ADHD/ADD as well as those who don’t, allowing me to provide tailored recommendations for each group. The program includes a dedicated module with procrastination strategies specifically designed for individuals with ADHD, developed with the assistance of ADHD strategists. Ultimately, the core solution still revolves around learning how to manage your mind and emotions, and accessing tools that facilitate getting started.
This program is offered on an ongoing basis, with enrollment windows that open periodically. While there will be future opportunities to join, starting sooner allows you to save time and begin experiencing the return on your investment. There is rarely a “perfect” time to join, so why wait?

If you’re tired of the endless procrastination cycle, let’s have a conversation.
Still wondering if this is the right program for you?
Rather than typing another lengthy paragraph about the program, we’ll keep it simple. Here is who it’s for…and who it’s NOT for.
This group IS for Entrepreneurs who:
- Are small business owners with an established business model.
- Know exactly what they want and need to do but struggle with chronic procrastination.
- Prefer to not solely rely on others’ accountability or deadlines to take action.
- Recognize patterns of self-doubt, anxieties, fears, and self-sabotage holding them back.
- Are committed to long-term growth and seeking profound, lasting transformation—no quick-fix gimmicks or short-term productivity hacks.
- Are already successful and are eager to increase their income, find peace of mind, and enjoy more personal time.
This is NOT for people who:
- Are not a business owner, or want to start a business but have no idea what it is. If you're at this stage, please directly message me on Instagram so I can help direct you to a better option.
- Expect a magical system that effortlessly eliminates their habits without any effort. Other programs may offer coping mechanisms and advice, but our focus is on resolving the root causes of your challenges. It requires your active participation and commitment.
- Are solely motivated by monetary gain and have no interest in transforming their thoughts, self-talk, and overall mindset.
