Prompt to Profit is a 3-day online bootcamp focused on helping founders, builders, and creators set up the systems they need to move from idea to execution. Across three focused sessions, we’ll work through the foundations of product development, workflow systems, and practical next steps for building something people can actually use, test, and grow. This bootcamp is designed for early-stage founders, hackathon builders, vibe coders, solo entrepreneurs, and anyone with an idea they want to turn into a real product or business. You’ll learn how to organize your idea, define your product, build simple systems, and create a clear path from concept to launch. Schedule Friday: 9:00 AM – 11:00 AM Saturday: 9:00 AM – 11:00 AM Sunday: 9:00 AM – 11:00 AM Location Online Bring your idea, your laptop, and your willingness to build. By the end of the weekend, you’ll have more clarity, more structure, and a stronger foundation for turning your prompt into profit.

The Writing Well invites writing for fun and inspiration. Each of us has a deep well of creativity and writing is one way to access the treasures from that well. A few places are still open for the fall program. “Writing alone, together,” we’ll meet on Zoom the 2nd and 4th Tuesdays, September 8 through November 24, from 9 to 10:30 a.m. Pacific Time.

In The Writing Well sessions, we work with prompts to explore whatever is seeking your expression in the moment. We meet together in a safe space, hold one another’s confidentiality, and (if willing) take risks to share what we discover. Consistent practice can strengthen our creativity muscles and may promote healing, connection with self and others, and help improve craft and accountability. Sophia D. brings her experience as lay minister, spiritual director, and professional writer to these informal sessions, but promises there will be no critiquing or instruction.
