Splice Coaching
You need some media therapy.
Being in journalism is hard. We’ll help you figure it out.
Whether you’re a journalist, a media leader, a product manager, a freelancer, or a startup founder, it can be easy to lose sight of your mission.
At Splice Coaching, we’ll work with to you reconnect with your purpose and build a thriving media business.
“Thanks very much for sharing your magic touch and Splice wisdom. And thanks for reminding me that audience problems need solving, which may not be journalism first.”

Founder, Spinning Forward
