One-on-one coaching

Struggling to keep up with your book project as an established scholar can be overwhelming. Feelings of shame and isolation intensify with each passing week, month, or year, making the idea of finishing seem insurmountable. Together, we can turn this situation around by reigniting your confidence in what you have to write and sustaining the motivation to write it. 

Making a plan

As your coach, I will collaborate with you to craft a finishing plan and establish a writing routine to suit your life. I am committed to holding you accountable to your goals. When challenges arise, we will explore them together, extracting valuable insights to help you adapt and progress. 

Learning from the obstacles and overcoming them

You may find yourself starting each week with the best intentions to make progress on your book, only to reach Friday without having found the time or falling prey to procrastination—often productively with other important tasks!  Perhaps, when you did manage to work on your project, you found yourself endlessly rewriting, researching, or outlining the next book without making tangible progress. 

These behaviors, though frustrating, are common manifestations of the challenging emotions of fear and doubt that surface during the writing process. While productivity hacks can be helpful, addressing the underlying concerns is crucial. Without doing so, the cycle of unproductive behavior, guilt, and shame persists.

Insights to help you adapt and progress

By shedding light on these root issues, they become more manageable. I provide a non-judgmental, solutions-oriented space for you to reflect on and practically address these challenges. Together, we'll uncover the obstacles standing in your way, enabling you to move past them with confidence and clarity.
