Create & Launch
Are you excited about creating a class or a course but don’t know where to start?
Then this program can be a supportive step by step guide to get you there.
Hi, my name is Yarrow.
I’ve been teaching and facilitating groups online since 2016 and love all the ways in which the internet allows us to connect and share.
While recovering from an accident I reimagined my courses and then developed a launch model that feels gentle yet expansive, generous yet easy to manage.
Now there are beautiful folks taking my classes to grow their businesses every month and I am making some additional income that supports more ease and spaciousness in my design work. It’s a win-win-win situation.

Yarrow’s Create and Launch programme was incredibly helpful for getting my evergreen courses off the ground. Yarrow has a way of creating self-study material that is so comprehensively put together and yet gentle and supportive in its approach so I never felt overwhelmed. The live sessions were cosy and energising and kept me moving towards my goals while being inspired by other people’s stories. The whole experience gave me accountability and a wealth of detailed information that are proving invaluable in my work. I’m so grateful for everything about this course.
I am sitting here in all the feels and happiness of officially finishing my online course. I’ve dabbled in making courses before, yet have never been happy with them and never really released them out into the world. Now I have a course I am SO happy with, that feels beautiful, that represents me and my work, and most importantly feels like it’s a genuinely supportive course for people. Create & Launch really helped me find the ease in creation, in doing things slowly (as I’ve sometimes been hard on myself for “how long” some things were taking), for allowing it to be well-done yet also imperfect, and to simply start small as a way to begin. It was in the little things Yarrow shared and framed within Create & Launch that really made the difference. I now feel like I have skills for life in creating courses in a fun, easful, and meaningful way. I’m so glad I joined and I highly recommend it!!
Yarrow has such a beautiful combination of knowledge and ease that I know I am learning a lot and yet do not feel rushed. I always know I will be supported at my own pace, in my own way and also always know that her offerings are flexible enough to flow with my current place in life. I love and appreciate her approach more than words can say.
This course is a great fit for you if:
- You have some ideas about what you could teach, but you need some more clarity and structure to make it happen
- You’re excited about finding generous and accessible ways of sharing what you know
- You enjoy learning in your own time and enjoy well curated resources to make it easier
