You’re Great at Your Job—But It’s Not the Work You’re Meant to Be Doing.
You don’t need another dream. You need a real, strategic step toward the one you’ve already got.

Join the 5-Day Escape Route Challenge from August 25th-29th and build your first bridge project—something that earns, connects, and moves you forward.

Over 650 creatives built their blueprints last time. Now, it's your turn.

Ready to stop waiting and start building? Join the waitlist for the next Escape Route Challenge from August 25-29.

Got a passion that lights you up? An interest you could talk about for hours? Good.

Here's what you need to know: I turned my spark into something real—a career that funds my life and feeds my soul, and you can, too.

Most people assume the only ‘legit’ routes are either being the person who does the thing or the expert coach who teaches it. They think you have to be the source.

But there's another way. You can build something incredible around your passion without being the expert.

Join me for 5 days in the Curator Academy Escape Route Challenge and discover a practical, proven way to turn your passion into purpose and profit—without pretending to be anyone but yourself.

You already know who you are. The question is: when will you actually start living as that person?
Maybe you're a brilliant project manager who secretly wants to be a potter. A kickass lawyer who spends every weekend woodworking. An actor who’s great at their marketing job, but knows it’s not their true calling.

You need a practical way to transition from the work that funds your life to the work that reflects your real identity.

The Curator Method isn’t about monetizing a casual hobby. It’s about building a practical, profitable bridge from the career that funds your life to the work that fulfills your life—without taking a reckless leap or starting from scratch.

Here’s what actually happens:

  • You organize the training experiences you need to sharpen your craft.

  • You build real relationships with working professionals and leaders in your field.

  • You develop the skills and confidence to transition gradually and strategically.

  • You create income that supports your real work instead of competing with it.

  • You stop feeling like you’re wasting your talents.

No risky career changes. No wasted time. No more feeling like you’re living someone else’s life.

You start where you are. You use what you love to build your bridge. And you gradually transition into the work you were meant to do – until that becomes your real life.

 

 

 

The 5 Days That Turn “I’d Love to Learn That” Into “I Know What to Do Next."

Problem: Not everyone lives in my time zone.
Solution: This time, I’m running every session live, twice a day. When you sign up, just pick the time that works for you. No more 3 AM alarms (unless that's your thing).

  • Session A: 9:00 AM CET (For the early birds in Europe & the afternoon crew in Asia/Australia)
  • Session B: 9:00 PM CET (For the night owls in Europe & the morning crew in the Americas)

By the end, you won’t just have ideas—you’ll have a clear, realistic first step to test in the real world.

Join The Waistlist

You’ll Leave This Challenge With:

⚪️ Freedom from the Expert Myth
Forget thinking you have to be the expert. You’ll see how your role as a resourceful curator—someone who brings in the right people and creates the experience— is a valuable, profitable asset from day one.

⚪️ A Clear Path to Real Income and Connection
You’ll see exactly how your unique interests—no matter how random or specific—can be the foundation for paid experiences and a powerful professional network. My first event paid me €1,300 in two days. One event can open doors and build momentum you didn’t think was possible.

⚪️ Your First Paid Project—Not Just an Idea
You won’t leave with “nice thoughts.” You’ll leave with one real project you’re ready to test—because nothing changes until you try it.

⚪️ A Repeatable Way to Keep Moving
This isn’t a one-time inspiration. It’s a practical method to bring in the experts, connect the right people, and create income again and again—while you keep learning and growing yourself.

⚪️ A New Way to See What You’re Capable Of
You’ll stop telling yourself you’re not ready—and start seeing how to bridge the gap between where you are and where you want to be, one real, paid step at a time.

Let’s Bust This Myth Once and for All

How much time, energy, and money have you already poured into this passion? That makes it an untapped asset. It's time to activate it.

So What’s This Challenge Really About?
This challenge is about using the Curator Method to turn what excites you into your first real, paid step forward—without having to be the expert, the guru, or the brand. It’s about creating something real that funds itself and moves you closer to the life you want, one step at a time.

Here’s Our 5-Day Journey Together:

Each day, you’ll join me live on Zoom (about 60-90 minutes) for training that’s designed to move you from stuck to building—fast.

  • You’ll get daily action worksheets to help you plan and test your first real step.
  • We’ll do interactive hot seat exercises to show you how to apply what you’re learning in real time.
DAY 1: We’ll bust through the biggest mindset block: that you need to be the expert to start. You’ll see how your curiosity and perspective as the curator is exactly what makes you powerful.
DAY 2: We’ll dig deep into what truly excites you—no more shallow “what’s my passion?” chatter. This is about finding what you’d pay to learn or experience yourself—and then seeing how to get paid to bring it to life.
DAY 3: You’ll discover the framework that lets you bring in the real experts, create income, and keep growing—without having to be the source of all knowledge yourself, so you can start building the bridge to the work and life you actually want.
DAY 4: You’ll translate the curator concept into your first real-world project. We’ll map out how to turn this into a paid, practical next step—so you’re not just stuck with ideas, but holding a real plan to test.
DAY 5: We’ll share progress, tackle real hot seat challenges, and lay out a clear plan for the coming months—no illusions, no waiting. Just a practical way to stop thinking about it and start doing.

The Deal on Showing Up (Live vs. Replays)

 

Look, we both know that a folder of unwatched videos doesn't change your life. Real change comes from showing up.

To help you actually do the work, replays for each day's training will be super limited (only available for 24 hours) and once they’re gone, they’re gone. This isn't to be mean; it's to create the momentum you need to build your bridge.

And to make showing up live a total no-brainer, we'll have prize drawings every single day for LIVE attendees. But I also want to reward commitment. So, if you attend at least 4 of the 5 sessions live, you'll automatically get my Curator's Resource Guide, my personal, curated list of the best free tools to launch your first event without the guesswork or the big budget.

Bonus: The Curator's Resource Guide (A Gift for Live Attendees)

Ever spend a whole weekend researching software instead of actually building your idea? I've done the work for you. To thank you for showing up live, I'm giving you my personal, no-fluff list of the essential free tools I recommend to every new curator.

This simple guide will give you:

  • The best free platforms for ticketing and payments that are easy to use and look professional.
  • My go-to design tools that let you create beautiful graphics for your event, even if you're not a designer.
  • The exact project management suite I use to keep everything organized and prevent chaos.

It’s everything you need to start, and nothing you don't. Just show up live for 4 of the 5 days, and it's yours.

From Acting Break to Building Bridges

Hey, I'm Anne. In my mid-twenties, I was a working actor with SAG health insurance—feeling like I’d made it. Then life shifted: I moved to Germany, started a family, and lost access to my creative community.

Years passed. I found work doing voiceover, commercials, and presenting—building a stable career with flexibility. But I wasn’t fulfilled.

At 47, with no current showreel or contacts and a 16-year gap, I faced the harsh truth: my old path was gone. I was rusty, out of practice, and didn’t know where to find affordable, high-quality training in English.

So I stopped waiting. I started organizing workshops myself. I got the skills I needed—for free—built a community, and even made real income. Most importantly, I realized I didn’t have to be the expert to create something valuable. I just needed to bring the right people together.

That’s the mindset behind The Curator Academy Escape Route 5-Day Challenge—a proven way to turn your passion into paid experiences without pretending to be anyone but yourself.

 

This is for you if you feel like you're living a double life.

By day, you're a successful professional. You're competent, you're respected, and you're good at what you do. But when the workday is over, your real identity emerges: the potter, the writer, the actor, the coder, the strategist.

You know you're capable of more than just your 9-to-5, but the standard advice doesn't fit.

  • "Quit your job!" is reckless advice for someone with responsibilities.

  • "Fake it 'til you make it" feels inauthentic to your core.

  • "Just monetize your hobby" feels small and misses the point.

This challenge is for people who are ready to stop waiting and start building. It’s about using what you already love to create a strategic bridge from where you are to where you belong – without blowing up your life or pretending to be something you’re not.
