Howzit?
I'm Cheyenne Rodriguez.
I am a neuroscientist, an international movement artist, and now coach for artists and creative entrepreneurs.
Like many others, my story is complex, and I am still learning how to tell it. I never thought I would be the one to get stuck. I was ambitious, full of potential, and had experienced great success at an early age. But over the years, the expression “You don’t know what you don’t know,” really sunk in.
My journey taught me thousands of lessons, many of which I learned the hard way, but they all seemed to lead back to this: the way our lives unfold is shaped by unseen forces that influence our choices. I had to learn how to see what was invisible: the thoughts, beliefs, body patterns, boundaries, and values I held that were shaping my decisions. The real challenge of transformation, though, is not just gaining knowledge, but actually integrating it into your life in a way that creates meaningful, lasting change. Getting unstuck wasn’t about being somewhere else or achieving that next thing - it was about creating safety in my body, understanding what I genuinely wanted for myself and from my life, and allowing myself to go after that in my own way. These core elements, along with a few others, are what I have understood through my lived experience to be the guiding principles of creating art that you love, a career you enjoy, and a life that brings you genuine happiness and fulfillment.
I don’t want our stories as artists and creatives to be ones of struggle, poverty, and poor mental health anymore. Artists literally change the world. We shape culture and shift perspectives. The world relies on our art to inform, inspire, and challenge the status quo. That means our work has impact—so when artists heal, the ripple effect reaches far beyond us. Helping heal the artist has the ability to help heal the world. But in order to create sustainably, we need more than talent and passion. We need tools, structures, and resources that support both our art and our livelihood.
I spent over a decade and tens of thousands of dollars searching for answers, filling the gaps in what I needed—not just as an artist, but as a human. This coaching is the culmination of that journey. My work is a holistic program that addresses the unique needs of being an artist and creative entrepreneur, and provides the tools, skills, and resources that are vital to our art and our livelihood. It exists because I know what it’s like to search for guidance and not find it—to have to piece everything together alone. My goal is to make sure you don’t have to.
Brilliant artist, your journey does not end here. If you are feeling stuck, if you are struggling to find your way, if you don’t even know what you want for your life but you know it’s not this moment - there is still a way forward. There is still hope. The way our lives unfold is shaped by unseen forces just as much as our choices. The magic of being an artist, a creator, a dreamer, is that you get to shape what comes next. I am living proof that this work works. It has changed my life. I hope it helps you change yours, too.

What is coaching?
Having a coach is a game changer because it helps you see what you can’t see on your own. It’s not just about maximizing potential; it’s about uncovering the unconscious ways you limit yourself, play small, and stay stuck in patterns you don’t even realize are holding you back. A coach helps you step outside your own perspective, challenge what feels normal but isn’t necessarily true, and create shifts that make your life not just functional, but deeply aligned, expansive, and fulfilling in ways you may not have even considered possible.Unlike therapy, which often focuses on healing past wounds, coaching is about transformation in the present and future—it’s about stepping into new possibilities. Inside coaching, you learn how to shape your own path, trust yourself as you navigate the unknown, and create momentum towards what you truly want out of life, in your own way.
How do I know if I need a coach,
& when is the best time to start?
The best time to start coaching is when you feel ready to create change—even if you don’t feel fully “ready” in the traditional sense. Many people wait until they feel more confident, clear, or prepared, but the truth is, coaching helps you get there. You don’t need to have everything figured out before starting—you just need a willingness to show up, be open and honest, and try something new - even when it gets uncomfortable. If you feel drawn to coaching but wonder if now is the right time, that might actually be your sign. Your art, your dreams, and your life depend on it.You might want to get a coach if:
you feel stuck, uncertain, or overwhelmed when you try to do the things you love
you have big dreams but struggle with fear, burnout, or imposter syndrome
you want to create but get lost in overthinking, like you’re somehow doing the wrong thing
you feel stuck in survival mode - constantly stressed, on edge, and unable to relax
you feel like you are self-sabotaging or hiding from success - having it is just as scary as not
you are craving something more in your life but don’t know what you want
you are doing everything you can on your own but still haven’t achieved your dreams
you feel unsure of how to get from where you are to where you want to be
you want to create a life that reflects who you truly are
you feel disconnected from your creativity, fulfillment, or personal growth
you have made changes before, only to find yourself falling back into old patterns later
One thing to note: a coach doesn’t play basketball for the players - a coach helps the players create strategies and strengthen their skills so they shine on the court. In this way, a coach can’t change your life for you - but they can help you understand what needs to change and help you change it so that you can create the life of your dreams.
What makes you different from other coaches?
I don’t just coach—I live the process of transformation. I’ve navigated deep uncertainty, creative reinvention, and personal evolution firsthand, which means I don’t approach coaching from an abstract or theoretical place. I understand what it’s like to feel caught between survival and expansion, to crave something bigger while feeling trapped in old patterns. That lived experience gives me a unique ability to meet you where you are, without judgment, and help you move forward in a way that feels both safe and expansive.What makes me unique isn’t just what I do—it’s how I hold space. My presence allows people to be deeply honest with themselves, sometimes in ways they never have before. I have a way of seeing the truth beneath the surface, reflecting it back with clarity, and helping you access the deeper knowing that already exists within you. People don’t come to me for surface-level solutions—they come to me when they want to find deep truths about themselves, when they need someone who can navigate the in-between spaces with them, not just push them toward an outcome.I exist in the intersection of science and magic, logic and intuition, structure and spontaneity. I can guide you through nervous system work and emotional regulation while also helping you tap into the intangible forces that drive your artistry and personal evolution. I see patterns that others might miss, and I help you connect the dots between your inner world and the external shifts you want to create. At the heart of it, what makes me different is who I am—someone who has walked the path of uncertainty, someone who can hold complexity with ease, and someone who is committed to guiding you back to yourself in the most profound way possible.
