The Erthworm Project
About
Project Erthworm is a creative life-skills system designed to help children and adults handle challenges, build focus, develop better habits, and navigate everyday life.
I’ve experienced some serious hardships and reached points where I struggled to see a way forward. Years of preparing for the worst left me stuck in negative thinking, overthinking, and spending too much time doomscrolling.
I wanted to find my way back to the creativity, positivity, and hope I had as a kid. I started using my artwork and design skills to create simple tools I could actually remember and use.
That became The Erthworm Project—a collection of books, planners, games, and creative tools based on my experiences and the things I’ve learned along the way.
As a graphic designer, illustrator, teacher, dancer, and veteran, I wanted to combine those experiences into something useful. I want to create resources that are accessible, creative, and useful for both kids and adults.
Javontae Cooper Design was created to plant and spread seeds of hope and optimism through art, design, and creativity—and to help awaken the spirit in people to keep moving forward.
Erthworm started as something I made for myself. Now I’m building it for anyone who needs better tools to navigate life.
What is it?
Erth
Your Erth is your own reality, shaped by how you see the world and the experiences you live through. We share one Earth, but we each experience it differently.
Worms
Worms are negative energies that develop from life’s hardships, challenges, and experiences. Like mental parasites, they grow and feed on negativity, eventually influencing our decisions and actions and spreading more negativity.
