    "Erin created an engaging experience filled with witty, original content. As someone new to this kind of gameplay, I needed more guidance than the others—but Erin was incredibly patient. She kept the pace moving so the more experienced players stayed challenged, without leaving me behind. The result was an afternoon full of laughter, creativity, and adventure with like-minded adults. I had such a great time, I’ve come back for several more sessions. 10/10, highly recommend!"

    Erin is amazing! I've really appreciated how she's encouraged me to explore my character's experiences/emotions and how that impacts her decisions. Also, sessions are just plain fun, with compelling quest lines and story elements tailored to each of the party's characters.

  • ONot at all. Personal growth happens at your pace. This experience encourages emotional depth and self-reflection through your character, but nothing is forced. You are always in choice—share only what feels right, and let your insights unfold naturally through play.

  • Campaigns intentionally blends story-driven adventure with coaching principles. The journey mirrors the Hero’s Journey, inviting moments of introspection, identity work, and values alignment.
