IdeaStorm Power Hour (AKA Pick-My-Brain)
If you’ve been overthinking your next move, then clarity and perspective will cut through the noise.
Take advantage of my 25+ years of creative problem-solving experience so you can get unstuck, make decisions, and move forward with confidence.
You have goals for your business, but sometimes you need fresh eyes to think through a challenge or idea. A Pick-My-Brain session is a focused, strategic conversation designed to help you make decisions, uncover opportunities, and gain clarity quickly.
This is one of the easiest ways to work with me and get immediate strategic value before committing to a larger engagement.
How It Works
Your Brainstorming Session
This is where the clarity happens. During your focused 60-minute Zoom session, we’ll dive into your priorities, brainstorm ideas, and work through the brand, marketing, or business challenges you want insight on. You’ll get fresh perspective, objective guidance, and practical next steps.
02.
Get Your Notes & Action Steps
After our call, you’ll receive a written summary of everything we discussed, including key ideas, insights, and recommended actions.
These notes help you stay organized, focused, and clear about what to do next.
03.
Move Forward—Your Way
From here, you can take the ideas and run with them on your own, or we can continue working together.
Some clients book additional brainstorming sessions, while others step into BrandTherapy for ongoing advising, accountability, and support. It all depends on what you need next.
What can we brainstorm during our pick-my-brain session?
It’s your hour—so we focus on what matters most to you. Common topics include:
- How to use AI to grow or simplify your business

- Content and marketing brainstorms
- Developing or refining your elevator pitch
- Pressure-testing a new service or offer
-
Objective insight on a challenge you’ve been overthinking
-
Crafting a short networking or sales intro that expresses your value

Untangling next steps when you feel stuck or overwhelmed
Includes a one-hour meeting held by Zoom or on the phone.

Questions? Here are the answers to the ones I’m asked most often.
What is a Pick-My-Brain session?
It’s a focused, 60-minute strategy session where we work through the brand, marketing, or business challenges you’re facing. You bring your priorities, questions, or ideas; I bring clarity, objectivity, creative insight, and 25+ years of experience. Together, we create direction you can act on immediately.
How is this different from a free consultation?
A free consultation helps us determine what you need and whether a Pick-My-Brain session (or something else) is the best next step.
A Pick-My-Brain session is working time—we dive into your specific challenges, brainstorm solutions, and define actionable next steps.
What kinds of topics can we cover?
Anything related to brand strategy, messaging, marketing direction, creative challenges, prioritizing ideas, simplifying decisions, untangling complex problems, or clarifying next steps. If it affects how you show up, communicate, or grow your business, we can dig into it.
Who is this session best for?
Solopreneurs, founders, in-house creative leaders, small business owners, and anyone who needs objective insight, fresh ideas, or clarity fast. You don’t need a big budget or a long-term engagement—just a problem to solve or a decision to make.
What do I get after the session?
You’ll receive a written summary of the ideas, insights, and next steps we covered. Clients often use this as a short-term roadmap for moving forward with clarity and focus.
Can I use this session to get help with AI tools, content ideas, or workflow systems?
Absolutely. Many clients use this time to improve their systems and processes, build more efficient workflows, or learn how AI can support their brand and marketing efforts.
What if I’m not sure what I need?
No problem. Start with a free consultation. We’ll talk through what you’re trying to solve, and I’ll recommend the right path—whether it’s a Pick-My-Brain session, an IdeaStorm, or something else entirely.
Will we get through everything in one hour?
We’ll make significant progress on your top priority. If you need ongoing support or deeper strategic work, we can continue with additional sessions or step into BrandTherapy for ongoing advising and accountability.
What does the session cost?
The investment is $495 for a 60-minute session. If you decide to continue with BrandTherapy or an IdeaStorm engagement, your session fee is credited toward the next step.
Do you work with clients outside Arizona?
Yes. All sessions are held via Zoom, so we can work together no matter where you are located.
Can I bring a partner or team member to the session?
Yes. If you have a business partner or key team member who needs to be part of the conversation, they’re welcome to join.
What if I need help implementing the ideas from our session?
You have two options:
-
Run with the notes yourself, or
-
Continue working together through BrandTherapy, where you get ongoing support, accountability, and strategic guidance.
