“I learned that I needed to explore and cultivate my AUTHENTIC ARTIST IDENTITY to connect on a deeper level with my audience.”
“I was finishing up my third album and since I had released music in the past without a plan and my goals were not achieved, I hired Diane as my PR and Marketing Coach. The thing that surprised me most? Well, three things…
- How quickly Diane put me in action, especially with STRATEGIES for TIME MANAGEMENT and GOAL SETTING.
- When it came to PROMOTION, I really just wanted to hire people to do it for me, but I learned that I needed to explore and cultivate my AUTHENTIC ARTIST IDENTITY to connect on a deeper level with my audience.
- The 3rd and maybe most surprising thing is that BRANDING & MARKETING is FUN and CREATIVE!!! I ended up loving the topics that I most wanted to avoid.
The result was that I was able to successfully launch an LP in a digital world as an Independent Female Artist! Plus, Diane even connected me with my current project New Moon Junction.” ~ Singer-Songwriter, Tamara Maddellen

- My creative journey began as a fashion and entertainment photographer.
- Along the way, I also held the titles of pr & marketing coach, music journalist, artist manager, jewelry designer, pet care specialist, and I often return to photography.
Throughout the career changes, my life’s purpose has remained constant. My mission is to educate, motivate and empower multi-passionate artists to embrace their authenticity, creativity, and purpose in order to slide into the spotlight with the impact and income to match.

My personal brand proudly includes my love of cats, red wine, and Janet Jackson.
“Just as my acting coach helped me build a process for approaching a character, Diane helped me build a process to tackle the personal and business aspects of my life to keep me on track to reach my goals.
Before coaching with Diane, I didn’t have a solid plan in place to build my profile and secure more auditions.
I came to recognize that my fear of failure was holding me back from putting myself out there and becoming a full-time working actor.
The part of the program that had the biggest impact on me was learning my why as having a clear understanding of why I am pursuing this dream made me focus and draw on that motivation when things get me down.
I’m more confident now that I have the tools and support to get to the next level.” ~ Chad Allen, Actor, Writer, Director, Producer

“After only a few sessions with Diane, I felt that the experience was life-changing.”
“Before coaching with Diane, I struggled to understand how to grow my career in music and film. I was overwhelmed working on so many projects that lacked structure and an overall schedule. After only a few sessions with Diane, I felt that the experience was life-changing.
Confidence has been the biggest impact on me as I never really stopped to think about my core values, beliefs, strengths, weaknesses, and most importantly the deeper reason why I was writing the type of music that I do. It impacted my personal life as well as triggering me to go back to work on my childhood trauma and anxiety.
Now I have the tools and systems in place to achieve my goals and the confidence to communicate and connect with audiences and industry authentically.” ~ Nathalie Kraemer, Singer-Songwriter, Filmmaker

“Coaching helped me see what was in alignment for my unique path”
“I sought coaching with Diane Foy because I was uncertain of what I needed to do to be successful with publicity and promotion for my music projects. The chaotic noise out there around promotion/marketing/ social media seemed overwhelming.
Diane’s PR and marketing knowledge and her background in the industry were invaluable and she listened hard. Her coaching gave me a good sense of the bigger picture for attracting an audience, media attention, and industry team members.
It helped me see what was in alignment with my unique path and gave me confidence in proceeding. I’m feeling good about taking the next steps that are right for me. Thanks Diane! ~ Taivi, Singer, Songwriter
