Lazy? Unmotivated? Got ADHD? Same.
Here's how to get over yourself and run a business.
Your attention span is short, our courses are shorter.
We don't want to sit through boring lectures, so we made a course suitable for brains like ours (and yours).
"Why can't I land clients?"
Because you sound like a toddler with no confidence in their work. (Sorry, someone had to tell you).
10 Compact Lessons
We keep it short and sweet with lessons no longer than 4 minutes (we know attention spans can be small). Inside each lesson, you'll learn the habits, mindset shifts, and strategies that separate burnt-out creatives from creative business owners.
11 Actionable Worksheets
Our worksheets are designed to help you organise your thinking. You'll get to know your brain better and find out what's holding you back. And we've made them as fun as hunting skeletons in Minecraft (that's pretty fun).
Personal Notion Dashboard
It's got lessons, worksheets and your own personalised space to stay organised. No more digging through folders or forgetting what to do next. This dashboard tracks your progress and keeps your resources in one place - oh, and it's aesthetic ofc.
Each Chapter Gets You Closer to Building a Studio That Doesn't Make you Cry (Most Days)
If your thoughts are chaos, your business will be too. First step? Figure out what the hell is going on in your brain.
Mindset isn’t a Pinterest board. It’s practice. Let’s build mental stamina, not motivational bs.
Business is one long problem (that we love to overcome). This chapter teaches you how to stop spiralling and start solving.
Imposter syndrome is a business killer. This chapter helps you rewrite your internal script and start owning your seat at the table.
Confidence isn’t a vibe, it’s a decision. This is your permission to be weird, loud, or wrong and do it anyway.
Your next big idea won’t come mid-scroll. We’re teaching you how to create space (and why it matters).
It’s not that you don’t have time. It’s that you’re spending it weird. We’ll help you sort that out.
Forget waiting for inspiration. This is about designing your days so success is automatic.
You're not lazy; you're just planted in the wrong soil. Let’s fix that.
Overnight success is fake. We’ll talk about consistency, patience, and how to keep showing up before the results do.
This is a fun one (aren't they all?) This is your blueprint for who you are becoming.
What our students are saying
★★★★★
"The course so far have given me clarity in my business offerings, and the community provides accountability, motivation and some much needed socialisation for this introverted hermit.
I have already recommended it to a few friends." :)
★★★★★
"I get so many comments from my clients saying how organized I am, and it’s all thanks to you.
Can’t thank you guys enough, I have mega ADHD brain so this is like been game changing for me and I’m not even a brand designer haha" 😆
★★★★★
"The course helped me visualise and organise my business idea, and put a plan in place to make it work.
It helped me gain confidence in my ideas and prove to myself that I can succeed.
10/10 recommend!"
There's others just like you
We're all unique - duh, but you're not alone in your situation.
The Professional Procrastinator
You’ve got 47 tabs open, a colour-coded Notion dashboard, and still haven’t sent that invoice. You’re allergic to starting because finishing means someone might actually see it.
The Idea Hoarder
Every week you get a new “million-dollar idea”... that lives forever in your notes app graveyard. At this point, your Moleskine is basically a startup cemetery.
OR
The Serial Starter
Launching? Easy. Sticking with it? Not in your vocabulary. Your projects multiply like rabbits but mysteriously disappear when it’s time to scale.
The Imposter-in-Chief
You know your work is good, but your brain still says you’re just faking it until you get caught. Every client email feels like a test you’re about to fail.
Your brain has 1000 tabs open. Let's organise them so they're actually useful.

We're not who you think we are....
Hello, we are Penelope and Eden, a creative couple from Melbourne, Australia - also known as Boring Studios©
Our story is simple... We were sick of working for other people, having our creativity squished through agency work and our freedom decided by the mood of our boss that day.
So in April 2023, we quit our 9-5s and created Boring Studios©.
Starting from zero dollars, zero clients and zero idea how to run a business, we built Boring Studios into a creative studio with consistent $10k - $30k months.
Now our goal is to show as many creatives, studio owners and freelancers as possible how to have full creative freedom of their work and their lives.
Basically Boring Studios© exists because we believe creative brains don't belong in cubicles.
