Hobby Buddies

People who've been where you are. Mostly recently.

A Hobby Buddy isn't a coach. They're one or two steps ahead of you in something they love, and they can walk back to where you're standing.

Music

Don't see your Buddy?

Tell us what you're looking for. If you have someone in mind, share their profile and we'll reach out for you.

  1. Tell us the hobby and where you're stuck.
  2. Name someone you'd love to learn from, if you like. We'll ask them for you.
  3. We reply within 24 hours, by email. It's free, and you're not signing up for anything.

Someone in mind? Optional

Not everyone says yes, so we can't promise a specific person. If they can't join, we'll suggest a Buddy on a similar path.

Instagram, YouTube, TikTok, or their own site. We'll do the reaching out.

If we find a Buddy for you, would you book a Spark Session?

Your first 15-minute Spark Session is free. After that, Focused Sessions are $40 for 45 minutes.

Where we send our reply. No account needed.

Free. We'll reply within 24 hours.

We never share your name or contact details with anyone without your OK.
