About
Rage Against Cliché is a nonprofit advocacy and creative organization dedicated to making intentional living less of a self-help fantasy and more of a street-level survival skill. We exist for the people clawing their way out of debt, navigating burnout, or trying to build a meaningful life without selling their soul to gurus, trends, or overpriced quick fixes.
Born from real scars and stubborn persistence, Rage Against Cliché is not about manifesting a dream life with vision boards and scented candles. It is about telling the truth, sharing what works, and equipping communities with practical tools for resilience, brand development, and creative growth.
We believe wisdom is worthless if it stays locked in ivory towers. Money should be a tool, not a chain. Living well isn’t about marble countertops or three-hundred-dollar yoga pants—it’s about clarity, grit, and having a few good humans in your corner.
Rage Against Cliché blends advocacy, brand strategy, and creative services with stripped-down, functional resources for those stubborn enough to build lives that are conscious, affordable, and real. We work with small businesses, artists, students, and nonprofits in Kansas City and beyond, bringing brand development, marketing, and community advocacy together to fuel real change.
This isn’t a personal blog. It’s a shared survival manual—messy, mindful, and unapologetically human.
"Society thrives when good men plant trees whose shade they shall never enjoy." —Greek Proverb
​Mission
Rage Against Cliché exists to rally the curious, the restless, and the radically decent around a common cause: building stronger communities through advocacy, brand development, creative strategy, and mutual aid. We push the world forward without sanding down our edges or losing our sense of humor.
Built on grit, generosity, and insights forged through trial by fire, Rage Against Cliché is a platform for mindful action, community resilience, and creative collaboration. It’s not about having all the answers—it’s about showing up, sharing what works, and doing the hard things with humility and intent.
Progress is never a solo act. Neither is this.
Vision
Rage Against Cliché envisions a world where decency scales, mutual aid is mainstream, and purpose-driven action shapes communities. In an era ruled by speed, distraction, and self-interest, we are charting a slower, smarter, and more human route—one built on community resilience, shared responsibility, and earned trust.
We believe most people want to do good. What they need is a practical map for advocacy, creative collaboration, and sustainable living—not one written in corporate jargon or influencer fluff. Rage Against Cliché offers that alternative: contribute what you can, take what you need, and stop pretending change is effortless.
No one moves the world alone. But together—through skill, sweat, creativity, and the occasional well-timed dose of sarcasm—we can push communities in Kansas, Missouri, and beyond toward something better.
