Half-Finished to Done, LIVE
In this live, interactive, intensive group coaching program, you’ll learn how to nip procrastination in the bud, complete your projects, + create the results that you want in your life.
You’re smart, you’re capable, you get shit done.
But all of those half-finished projects cluttering your physical and mental space? Not only are they draining your energy and eroding your self-confidence, they’re blocking you from seeing what you’re truly capable of. It’s time to unlock all of that untapped potential, once and for all.
Are you ready to:
- Stop white-knuckling your way through productivity hacks and tricks?
- Stop leaving opportunities (not to mention money) on the table?
- Work with your brain -- not against it?
- Take ownership of your projects, instead of leaving them at the whim of the “motivation fairy”?
- Relish the sweet afterglow of pride and accomplishment that comes from finally finishing your projects?
If you’re like my clients, you know deep down that it’s not about not having enough time. You understand that it’s something deeper that keeps you from completing your projects.
“I just don’t have enough willpower” is a common reason that my clients come up with.
But here’s the secret: It’s not about willpower, either. It’s about understanding your brain.
GOODBYE TO:
- Haphazardly start a bunch of new projects
- Try to white-knuckle your way through, using willpower
- Get bored, overwhelmed, or frustrated and drop those projects to start new ones (ah, the high of a new project)
- Feel guilty, disappointed, and embarrassed constantly about the projects you haven’t touched in months
- Take half-assed action in a bunch of directions, with no real plan in place
- Use the half-finished projects as evidence that you’re not committed or dedicated enough
- Never get the sense of completion that always feels just out of your grasp, even though you crave it
- Lather, rinse, repeat
HELLO TO:
- Thoughtfully choose what project to pursue; intentionally tabling the rest
- Generate productive feelings of motivation, empowerment, commitment, and dedication -- on demand
- Learn to allow and process unpleasant feelings, instead of resisting them
- Rest assured that you’ll be able to work on the other projects -- as soon as this one is done
- Execute with a project plan, proactively anticipating obstacles and strategies
- Use the finished projects as evidence that you can get gritty and tenacious in order to create the life you want
- Sit with the feelings of pride and accomplishment that come from a completed project
- Lather, rinse, repeat
Let's see if Half-Finished to Done, LIVE might be a fit:
On June 3rd, you’ll join me and 9 other tenacious “half-finishers” who are ready to go all in on finishing their projects, in this 8-week program.
You’ll leave the program understanding your brain better — and you’ll have a finished project as your evidence that you can overcome your internal narrative and create incredible results.
We’ll meet twice a week on Zoom for teaching and coaching calls, and do written coaching on Slack in between calls.
Your investment is $699, for 8 weeks of intensive work, and life-long skills that will stay with you well beyond those 8 weeks.
Let's connect on a 30-minute consult:
Wondering why I can paint such a vivid picture? I am the “before” and “after”
Hi, I’m Cristina Roman, and I’m a reformed half-finished project person. (Say that five times fast.)
I used to joke that the internet was scattered with my half-finished projects. Beneath the joke was a feeling that I wasn’t committed or focused enough to just follow through. Once the novelty of a new project wore off, I was off in search of the next shiny project to sink my teeth into.
Using the method that I will teach you, I revamped the way that I take on and finish projects in my personal and professional life. My belief “I don’t follow through” has become “Of course I’ll follow through; I’m a damn finisher.”
What will your proudest finished project moment be?

(Read: Your objections)
Here’s what I suspect you’ve tried — beating yourself up, telling yourself to “just do it,” willpowering and white-knuckling, and getting stuck in the same self-fulfilling cycle. The dang vortex of half-finished projects, as I not-so-fondly like to call it.
Here’s the new way: Understand exactly why you haven’t been finishing projects, and understand the exact inputs needed for a finished product.
Here’s a quick preview: Generating productive thoughts and productive feelings, processing unpleasant feelings (instead of resisting them), planning ahead, taking massive action, anticipating obstacles, and understanding your wins so that you can replicate and amplify them.
If you’ve never felt the pain, guilt, shame, disappointment, and embarrassment of half-finished projects hanging over your head, this course might not be for you. But those might be feelings that you’re intimately familiar with.
If so: I want you to pause and zoom five years into the future. Think of all of the time, energy, money, and opportunities that you leave on the table in the next five years by not solving this problem. Only you’ll know if there’s a big enough opportunity cost to make it worth solving for you.
Isn’t it funny how our brains block us from solutions and keep us stuck, because we’re worried that we’ll learn we could have solved the problem earlier?
Here’s the great news: Part of this process is making peace with your Past Self. We won’t be digging or analyzing your past — just accepting it, dropping resistance, selling you on the idea that it all happened like it was supposed to, and then moving on: Into the land of finished projects.
Here's what's included:

FAQs
A project is anything that you want to create, that can be clearly defined and given a clear end point.
For example: You might want to finish your screenplay or a book; write an ebook or course for your business; finally finish decorating your home; revamp a process in your day job; learn that language you’ve been talking about for years; or finally hit that savings goal by getting your side hustle up and running.
We’ll take into account the other ongoing tasks that are already on your plate.
There are two 90-minute calls per week: One teaching call and one coaching call.
I highly recommend that you attend live, but if you can’t make it, you can catch the recording.
In addition, you will be spending about 65 minutes per week on the course reading and doing the assignments, plus the time you’ll spend executing on your project, which is up to you.
It’s time-intensive, but so worth it.
The group is capped at 10 participants per round. This ensures that everyone gets hyper-personalized coaching and feedback, and my full attention.
Totally up to you and your priorities!
This is the live version of the Half-Finished to Done course. For some people, walking through a course on their own is exactly what they want.
For other people, they really want the depth and value that live coaching calls can provide. The benefit of a coach is an outside perspective, the ability to ask stellar follow up questions, holding space for you as you process; and pushing back on your limiting beliefs.
Simply put, podcasts, books, and courses teach you valuable concepts, but they are not in your brain, unearthing your self-limiting beliefs.
That’s why I call this option “The best of both worlds” between the course and 1:1 coaching.
Here’s a quick comparison:
On the call, I’ll call on those who have submitted coaching requests and they’ll join me on video. We’ll coach together as others watch from the comfort of their own homes 🙂
It takes vulnerability and courage to be coached live — it’s a very meta process, in which just volunteering to be coached can be a transformative step in and of itself, regardless of what comes out of the session.
Here’s a good rule of thumb for being coached: Don’t present things that you aren’t ready to see differently. If you have something in your life — a sticking point — that you are sensitive about and aren’t ready to address, it isn’t a good topic for coaching. (I say this as a fellow human who sometimes has to say, “I’m not ready to be coached on this yet.”)
All requests for coaching must be submitted ahead of time. If you’d like to be coached, but don’t have a topic in mind — we can find one. Submit your request anyway. (This is actually really fun for me to unearth a coachable topic.)
I ask that you only volunteer to be coached if you can join us from a quiet space where you’re alone — no kids, loud animals, coworkers, etc, please.
I’m so tempted to give you a 100% money-back guarantee. But I’m not going to. Here’s why: When you invest money, you take ownership, go all in, and surprise yourself with how much grit you have in you.
When your brain is distracted by the idea of a money-back guarantee, that doesn’t happen as easily. It’s time to go all in.
This isn’t for you if:
- You’re not ready to invest 8 weeks and $699 into solving this problem forever
- You’re already thinking about how to get out of the assignments
- You’d rather DIY your way to a solution
- You’re not comfortable with direct feedback
- You don’t have a project in mind that you’d like to work on
Otherwise, I’ll see you inside!
HELL YES!
I extend an invitation to participate in Half-Finished to Done, LIVE if we’ve first “met” on a video call. Book a free consult call so that we can ensure that it’s a mutual fit.
We’ll meet on Zoom video for 30 minutes, get to know each other a bit, and do some speed coaching, so that you can see everything in action. (Take the car for a test-drive before you buy it, if you will.)
Besides finishing all those half-finished projects and becoming a totally different person in the process? My goodness, you ask for a lot 😉
I’m going to let my clients tell you! When I asked what their biggest takeways and wins were from our time together, here’s what they said:
“Taking time to be curious about my thoughts, thinking of a goal and identifying all you need to do and not do to achieve it; then making a plan to handle items from the list; unconditional love [for myself].”
“(1) Working through specific big issues in my life that I had trouble letting go of / didn’t like how I was ‘showing up’ for (2) learning a framework on how to address any future thoughts/issues/circumstances I’m struggling with (3) clarity on my goals and priorities for 2020 (4) identifying “traps” I’ve set for myself that I wasn’t very aware of and letting go of them.”
“Recognizing that I can commit time, energy, and money into myself and betterment. Realizing some things about myself that I hadn’t before and admitting to some others. Seeing how much is available to me and others who want to work on bettering themselves.”
“My biggest takeaway is that life coaching is very helpful and something I’d like to continue to have as a resource…life coaching is…about giving you tools to create the future you want for yourself.”
“Having someone to hold you accountable to things really does help with change. An outside person to talk to with new experience and skills is extremely helpful to see new things.””I have the ability to change if I set my mind to it and stick with it.”
“I am the only one holding me back from getting what I want.”
“Every is going through their own struggles, some way more similar to your than you may realize, so keep that in mind when judging or moving through life.”
“This shit is hard and cool AF.”
