Pick The Lock

Sometimes we need permission to slow down and think out loud. To follow a thread of an idea, untangle a knot, or explore a possibility without judging ourselves, self-censoring, or worrying about what someone else might think.

The most meaningful path forward may begin with a pause. Clarity, direction, and momentum often arrive when we stop forcing them.

That's what Pick The Lock sessions are designed for. They're one-off coaching conversations, and you can choose your own price.

Hi, I'm Andy Mort.

I'm a songwriter and qualified creativity coach helping Highly Sensitive People and other Gentle Rebels (re)connect with their individual needs and preferences so they can navigate change in ways that work for them.

Through creativity coaching, I support people to feel more at home in an unconventional life. This might mean:

Discovering the joy of everyday sensitivity and accidental creativity.

Building environments and rhythms that recognise, embrace, and encourage who you are, not who you've been told you 'should be'.

Processing feelings of disquiet, uncertainty, and invisibility, and transforming them into fuel for creative exploration and change.

A Pick The Lock call is for when...

  • You’ve been circling a decision for a while
  • You’re stuck in a creative block that won’t quite shift
  • You’re in a work or relationship situation that feels tangled
  • You’re asking “what next?” amidst or after a life change
  • You’re working on a project that hasn’t yet found its shape
  • Things feel fine, but something in you is starting to look for a different direction

I began my professional training in 2019 and qualified through an ICF-accredited institution in summer 2020, after receiving requests from people who wanted to work with me in this way.

My education reinforced something that continues to shape how I work: sustainable change comes through genuine connection, and supporting you to find your own answers. That also requires a commitment on my side to keep learning and developing my coaching practice.

I also want this kind of support to remain accessible to anyone who needs it. With many people navigating changing financial circumstances, I’ve opted for a choose-your-own-price approach so you can pay what feels right and manageable for you at the moment. No explanation or justification needed.

You’ll receive a donation link in my follow-up email, so you can decide in your own time, without pressure or awkwardness.
