Welcome to the Exclusive Home for Professional Musing & Cinematic Life Coaching!

S. Stephon Brown Amusements believes that real inspiration can only be achieved through truth, authenticity & understanding in safe spaces for growth. This is reflected in our "Truths Based" approach to musing by employing Mental Cartography, a feels & obsessions based thought-craft developed by our founder. Using these techniques, our muses not only work to inspire new perceptions, but to also uncover the root causes of any blocks involved. Intuition, empathy, discretion and hyper-awareness are just a few of the attributes our muses tap into to hold space for creativity, imagination, and flow.
The original Muses of Greek antiquity were goddesses of art, literature and science, that gifted inspiration to mortals they found to be worthy. The Modern Muse achieves that same inspiration by using observation and analysis to create a safe space where can creativity flourish, leading to new solutions and insights-- for everyone, not just those deemed worth by the gods. Experts in interpersonal communication and physical & verbal interaction, they use their understanding of themselves and their surrounding to bring that same understanding to their clients. Muses are meant to show their clients new perspectives, attitudes and approaches that lead to achieving client goals.
-A Motto of Modern Musing

1. ADAPTABILITY: Many other trainers, speakers, or personal growth professionals will present their stock "cookie-cutter" solutions and/or messaging for every situation and client. They use a universal truth to create a "skeleton key" philosophy that they can jam into any problem for a partial fix. Muses delight in unique solutions. We are creative and crafty creatures that will tailor every portion of our process to meet the needs of our clients. Every musing is unique, because every client is unique. And our abilities to adapt and improvise also give us...
2. PERSONALIZATION: Through our skills of mental cartography and hyper-awareness we recognize the interconnectivity of modern problems and go beyond the obvious to reveal hidden solutions. We find the answers others don't, because of our nonjudgemental holistic approach to the full human experience. That allows for truth and...
3. ENTERTAINMENT: Modern Musing involves seeking understanding & clarity within ourselves and our environment... WHILE having a good time. We encourage joyful & playful activities and interactions as we work through issues together as team. The process for rediscovering joy should be a joyful process, that's why we provide the Truth with a Candy Coating, using games, stories, and well-timed silliness.

a Personalized Journey of Entertaining & Creative Self-Discovery
Our approach to Modern Musing focuses on growth, understanding, & authenticity through honest conversations, interesting encounters, & shared activities that are meant to be based in fun. Unlike other coaches, Muses don't work in sterile office spaces. We put "boots-on-the-ground" and gently enter our clients worlds to seek real answers and hidden happines.
Ongoing Interactions can range from online chats and home visits, to shared vacations, with museums, concerts, or craft shows along the way. Each ongoing Musing begins with a FREE Consultation to discuss your needs and check our compatibility as a musing team.

Musing is a performance art of discovering truths and recognizing patterns. This can be accomplished by manufacturing an environment of creativity and understanding through performances, events, activities, and mischief. It involves creating a quick but authentic bond between the Muse & Client and then exploring their reactions together in the "real" world to see what truths reveal themselves. Those truths are then taken by the Client to reflect/build/create upon in whichever way they seem fit.
No. There are aspects of musing that are very therapeutic, but musing is not any kind of official therapy. Musing reveals truths, which can range from the small and interesting to the amazing and life changing. In all cases of personal musing, we recommend traditional therapy (or comparable alternatives) from a trusted source to be considered as well. This may help the Client process any new truths that may be revealed.
Every session is different and personalized to the needs of the Client. But it revolves around the the Muse & Client having a shared exploration through some aspect of the Client's life. They can be playful friendly hangouts, attending dashing cultural events, having quiet conversations in secluded corners or facilitating loud acts of public bravado. The possibilities are only limited by the resources, timeline and boundaries of the Client. Which will all be discussed and agreed upon beforehand.
If someone is interested in a musing performance, we would first schedule an online consultation call between the main Client and our team. On that call we would ask questions to fully grasp the situation and understand the requirements. Once that is completed, our team will write up a proposal for what we believe will be the most beneficial type of musing which will be sent to client for approval.
Yes and no. Musing is a shared inspirational experience meant to be interesting to all. The muse must be inspired by the client/role/opportunity in order to do their job correctly. Therefor, a "face-to-face" pre-meeting will eventually be required for all personal sessions to check the chemistry of the assignment before it is accepted. We completely understand that some Client's may wish to have us vetted by their teams first. But please note that the first consultation call is complimentary and any follow up calls that are required may be subject to meeting fees.

S. Stephon Brown was diagnosed as neurodivergent (ADD) at a very young age. Throughout early life, he constantly struggled with traditional education techniques and communication styles because he had no system to understand or express what he was going through. That changed in 1993 when he began to study improvisation & improv therapy through a school program. Over the next decades, Stephon continued developing his unique performance and observation skills, eventually integrating storytelling work and narrative knowledge via a degree in film studies. He spent 20 years unhappily grinding in the entertainment and corporate worlds in various coordinator and manager roles that fit him like a bad costume.
The Covid Lockdown gave Stephon the time and perspective needed to reevaluate his approach to life and forage a new career path. Since then he has discovered his calling as a Muse, founded his own amusement company, created a basic training program for other Muses, and begun taking on private clients. All with the goal to help other individuals who are struggling in life, but may not know why... just like he was.
Musing is a performance art used to entertain, inspire creativity and promote self reflection. It is not a replacement or substitute for any type of professional therapy. Results are not guaranteed. We reserve the right to refuse service at any time, under any and all circumstances.
