COMING
SOON
This is creativity on your terms.
Unfinished Work /ʌnˈfɪnɪʃt wɜːk/ n. The thing you know you must do to feel whole. The idea you told yourself wasn't good enough, the thing you did as a kid that you “grew out of”, the project you started three times and stopped. Unfinished Work is what some part of you knows is yours beyond reason.
It’s time to show up in ways that look different from what you've tried before.
This is where The Lab for Unfinished Work comes in.
Your past attempts don’t determine what you might create next.
“For most of my adult life, I was in corporate. This was a big part of my identity…there were decades when I didn't even think I was creative because everything else in life took precedence... My inner critic doesn’t hold me back now. I'm TAPPED IN. There's a real sense of wonder in my life that was lost for so long. I was nervous to get a coach because it I thought it was self-indulgent, but I also knew I needed to do this for myself. Maggy helped me to live inside out. That's the only way I can put it!”
Ellen
“I went from believing I couldn’t write, let alone establish a writing habit, to a person who enjoys expressing herself through ‘printed’ words. Because of my work with Maggy, my grandchildren and perhaps others will have the opportunity to know me better through my written stories.”
Gail
“Witnessing others and their vulnerability and process has been so healing and affirming in this process. I have found myself regarding myself in a wholly new way. A refresh. I am regarding myself as an important and creative person.”
Tooya
“I have been completely changed… Maggy's gentle encouragement, complete presence and wholehearted belief in my process has instilled in me the belief that writing is for me, that I deserve to live the creative life I have always wanted, and that it is possible. I have gone from being afraid and deeply resentful of writing (because it was hard, because it was vulnerable, because it was scary) to embracing it as a vocational call, and as something that is an important part of me. It's gone from being a burden to a gift. I never, ever thought that would happen…Working with Maggy has changed my life entirely for the better.”
Réka
“Maggy has created a space that is not only creative but filled with gentle curiosity and endless opportunities for new perspectives. I felt seen, heard, held, and encouraged all within an hour and a half. I left Maggy’s workshop with a renewed lust for writing and sharing!”
Elizabeth
“You’ve cultivated an (in my experience) unmatched sense of safety here, a place that welcomes big emotions within clear and reasonable boundaries + humor when it feels right.”

The creative coach you’ve been looking for
Hey, I’m Maggy - I’m an artist, writer, creativity researcher, and founder of Regarding Dew, an online creative studio that supports women from all over the world to move through creative fear with courage and compassion in order to live in greater alignment with their desires.
I have unwavering trust in your creative gifts and your ability to honor those gifts, especially if you’ve tried so many times before.
I am here for the deep-feelers and the creative thinkers who don’t fit easily into boxes.
Your authentic self is welcome here.
Your creativity is important and needed.
It's time to take your gift and creative desires seriously and surround yourself with the people who not only believe in you, but who help make it happen.
Intimate, authentic creative community
If you’ve been in Regarding Dew spaces before, you know that the people that come together are down-to-earth and real.
We come from diverse backgrounds, across geographies and generations.
Unlike many creative programs at universities, this is not a space of exclusivity and pretense. This is space where you don't need to prove yourself.
The relationships you form in The Lab for Unfinished Work can lead to long-term accountability partnerships, collaborations, and friendships (I’m grateful to have seen this happen more than once).
What if I genuinely don’t feel creative or interesting enough to be in the group?
If you see yourself in this and part of you knows you are an artist or writer—the deep part of yourself knows that’s true—and you’re done with feeling not creative or interesting enough… or ready enough or smart enough… The Lab for Unfinished Work is a place to live into the deeper truth of who you are.
Because identifying with a sense of inadequacy is learned and unlearned socially. Some of the greatest gifts of being in a group are 1) feeling the hard parts normalized by hearing other people share openly about their challenges 2) being received and respected as you practice sharing yourself more truly, without veneer.
You can believe you’re uninteresting or a total beginner and still make something that makes you feel like you’re floating.
You can be burnt out and make something cathartic. You can be overwhelmed and find crystal clarity through taking small, consistent action with the support of community.
This is why The Lab for Unfinished Work exists. Stepping in is saying you’re done with the narratives that keep you small
You've made things before, you have a sense of what you want to work on and what's in the way, but you might not know exactly what to work on now or how to move forward... or you might just realize that you want creative community as you experiment with lots of projects.
This is important: You don't need to know what you're going to focus on before stepping in.
In fact, I recommend against coming in with lofty goals. Name them, claim them, but don't let the pressure squash the possibility of what might happen inside The Lab.
The Lab for Unfinished Work is introvert friendly and highly interactive.
By signing up, you understand that you’ll contribute in conversation, even if it’s mostly in the chat!
If you are ready to be witnessed in imperfect action as you are within a real + supportive community, The Lab for Unfinished Work is for you.
We try to keep this as close to IRL as possible, meaning:
There are no recordings or AI transcription. This is a space where you can share openly without being recorded. If you miss a class, there is opportunity to hop into the other cohort that week (let’s say you miss Thursday, you are welcome to join for Sunday’s call).
Cameras are on in general so we can see each other’s faces! You’re here to share and be seen. You are always welcome to have your camera off as needed.
Loving this idea but needing some extra support? Get full access to The Lab for Unfinished work, on me, when you book 6 or 9 months of 1:1 creative coaching.
Head this way and we’ll have a conversation about how the two can work together to help you get exactly what you need.
