A 10-Day Quest
Press Start
A 10-day 1:1 quest for the creative Founder who cannot keep pretending the old version of her still fits.
Every idea feels life-changing for 72 hours and then you scare yourself out of it
- Your Notes app looks like a graveyard of alternate lives.
- You keep mentally rebranding your entire existence while unloading the dishwasher.
- You have Google Docs with titles like “new direction maybe???”
- You keep thinking “wait… maybe THIS is the thing.”
- You keep almost posting something vulnerable and then deciding it’s cringe.
- You’re exhausted from being self-aware but still not moving.
You do not need another course.
You do not need another freebie.
You do not need more information.
You need external momentum because left alone, you’ll think about this for another year.
ARE YOU really GONNA LET ANOTHER SIX MONTHS GO BY?
That’s what Press Start is for.
You write and I reflect like the editor of the story that is about you, the Main Character of this game.
We stop hovering and actually start something.
By the end of the 10 days, you will:
- know which idea has real pull
- understand why you keep getting stuck
- have language for what you actually want
- stop building around an old version of yourself
- make a real first move before the quest end
how the quest works
10 days. Five quests. One direction you actually feel good about.
Press Start is the adventure through which you become the version of yourself you keep thinking about.
Kickoff Call
A 60-minute 1:1 call where we figure out what you're bringing into this quest, which idea has the most pull, and what you want to walk away with. The quest begins here.
The Five Quests
Five quests dropped across the 10 days at a pace that gives you room to actually sit with things. You write the responses, really gush, in your Notion doc and I read it and leave comments in the margins within 24 hours. Midway through I send a Loom bringing together what I'm seeing in your character so far.
Closing Call
A 30-minute send-off call where you leave with your compass heading and the idea named, the voice found, the first move already made. This is where you step into it for real.
Day 1
Days 2–9 ⚔️🔥
Day 10
The Protagonist
Who are you now, really? Not the version of you from three years ago, not the one everyone expects from you but the one actually living your current life.
Quest One
The Five Quests
Backstory + Lore
The weird paths, unfinished obsessions, side quests, jobs, hobbies, and experiences you keep dismissing as random. Where we figure out what threads have actually been following you the whole time.
Quest Two
The Skill Tree
The things you’re naturally good at that you keep overlooking because they come so easily to you. Patterns, strengths, instincts, and ways of thinking that you're not counting yet.
QUEST THREE
You as the Main Character
How you actually function best creatively, emotionally, and practically instead of forcing yourself into routines, systems, and business models that make you miserable.
qUEST FOUR
Your Personalized Map
The idea with real pull, the direction that keeps resurfacing, and the first move that turns this from “something you’ve been thinking about” into something with legs.

Answers to your Queries
What kind of "idea" counts?
Any of them. A business pivot, a creative project, a new offer, a direction you keep spiraling around. If it lives rent-free in your head and you haven't done anything about it yet, then that's the one.
How much time do I need?
About 5–7 hours across 10 days. The two calls plus writing time for each quest. The pace is spacious on purpose, because exploring needs a bit of time.
Do I need to know anything about D&D?
Not even a little. The way this works borrows the structure in the way character creation, questing, the worldbuilding come together because it works even outside the game. You'll get it immediately, no worries!
