Kent Studio is a creative consulting firm rooted in strategy and story, from LifePlan® to StratOp® to S Coaching®. We work with individuals or companies on the edge of change who feel stuck in confusion or doubt and long to unlock the hidden power of their own narrative . We specialize in creative professionals, teams building mission-driven work, writers, artists, founders, and couples who want breakthrough clarity and to tell their story with meaning and beauty.

Paterson LifePlan® is a focused 2‑day process to map your life’s direction—where you are, where you long to go, and the steps in between, illuminating a path forward .

Paterson StratOp® is our strategic planning framework for creative teams and organizations wanting clarity, unity, and impact. It’s designed to help grow revenue while staying grounded in purpose .

S | Coaching® is an identity-focused, narrative-driven coaching experience (especially for men or couples) that mines patterns, gifts, and purpose from your life story through guided reflection and story‑mapping .

Each is an invitation to dive deeper—one into your life’s design, one into your team’s strategic potential, and one into the poetic truth of your identity.

As the founder of Kent Studio, I (Kent Rabalais) have woven together a journey from creative ministry at The Village Church, to award‑winning storytelling for nonprofit and film projects, including producing the Audie Finalist, One Night In A Thousand Years, paired with strategic creative roles at Apple, Pursuant, and Disney‑Institute certified training .

I’ve seen how story reveals wonder and how when clarity meets courage, transformation follows. My commitment is to bring that blend of imagination and analytical strategy to help you tell a story that moves not only hearts, but also creates action.

Step 1: Intake Call—A 30‑minute conversation to understand your current struggles and explore how clarity could change your trajectory .

Step 2: Custom Proposal—Based on that call, we curate a tailored approach, whether LifePlan, StratOp, or S Coaching, designed to unlock your narrative and next steps.

Step 3: Strategy & Story Work—Through immersive workshops or coaching sessions, we guide you through clarifying your purpose, mapping your story, and making choices aligned with your deepest vision.

Step 4: Follow‑through—You walk away with a clear plan, renewed confidence, and the tools to take bold creative or strategic action.

Our goal: to move you from hesitation to momentum, from silence to full voice.

Clients often describe feeling “unstuck,” with sharpened clarity, renewed courage, and a sense of direction that feels both rooted and expansive. Past partners, from individuals to teams like Edison Coffee Co. or nonprofits, have experienced both inner shift and outward impact—gaining alignment, growing revenue, strengthening influence, and crafting stories that resonate deeply .

Whether it’s clarifying your personal purpose or helping your team launch with vision, the transformation is about aligning what you know you were made for with what you do in the world.

If you’re feeling any of the following, it might be time:

- a quiet whisper that you’ve got more to tell than you’ve shared

- frustration at being boxed in by confusion or indecision

- longing for coherence between your story and your work

- weariness of perfectionism, fear, or comparison

In our intake call, we’ll explore whether story mapping, strategic vision, or identity coaching is the invitation you need. Even that conversation often brings clarity and new possibility.
