The Problem

Too often, we let our careers choose us.
A degree at eighteen. A corporate job that looked impressive. A life that, on paper, ticks all the boxes, yet feels nothing like freedom.

You want to be creative. To work differently. To build a life that feels like yours. But instead you’re stuck in the loop:

  • Doubts about whether you’re good enough
  • Guilt for wanting “more” when you already look successful
  • Paralysis about where to even begin

It’s not that you don’t have the skills. It’s that fear and conditioning keep you circling the idea instead of living it.

The Promise

Sonic Study is your bridge.

A self-paced, 1-hour audio course that blends mindset work, emotional unblocking, and practical first steps. You’ll walk away with:

  • Clarity on why you want freelancing, and how to anchor into it
  • Tools to move through guilt, imposter syndrome, and visibility fears
  • Workbooks and reflection prompts that turn awareness into action
  • Simple tech and outreach tools to start pitching, landing clients, and protecting your energy

This isn’t another productivity hack.
It’s a reset. A release. A start.

What's Inside Sonic Study

Why Tessa & Lucy?

 

Sonic Study is designed by people who have lived it.

Tessa Carranza-Hawthorn left a decade-long career as a lawyer and startup advisor to build her own creative business, and now teaches freelancers to do the same.

Lucy Maeve is a transformational coach with trauma-informed training, guiding career transitions with compassion and depth.

Together, they’ve built a course that doesn’t just give you tools. It gives you courage.

Kat Coate, Lawyer turned Strategist

“Tessa’s approach blends the professional and the creative seamlessly. Her background as a serious tech lawyer make all the Word.Haus offerings not only feel informed, but have deeply reassured me it’s possible to make a big career transition in my thirties.”

Isabella Royce, Lawyer turned Copywriter

––

“I’ve worked through all the offerings from Word.Haus, from Sonic Study to the Live Demos and Template packs. As a former lawyer myself, I take a lot of comfort in Tessa’s professional background, which comes through so clearly in her delivery (minus the airs and graces). Word.Haus has been invaluable not just in helping me build a profitable writing business, but in helping me show up to my practice with confidence and understanding my worth.”
