Career, Academic, & Life Coaching
For Pre- and Postdoctoral Historian and Humanist Scholars
You're in the midst of, or have in hand, a Ph.D. in the humanities or qualitative social sciences…
You know you have something vital to say about your subject.
And yet, and yet...
What happens after you get those three fancy letters? Everyone says how bad the job market is…
You've got the super-fancy degree, and your anxieties about finding a job are proving founded…
Maybe you have a postdoc, but the prospect of yet another year on the job market feels soul-crushing…
Or perhaps you have the coveted tenure-track job — and realize the merry-go-round is only speeding up (the semester-to-semester grind, diss-to-book and revise/resubmit deadlines, service demands), and now you fantasize about stepping off entirely. But what else are you even qualified to do???
As Your PhD career coach - - I can help!
To discover what's best for our coaching together schedule a complimentary session.
Here's what I've learned over twenty-five years:
The scholars who build real, lasting traction aren't the ones who just fix their CV or white-knuckle their way through the job market. They pair practical strategy with a steadier relationship to themselves — and that combination is what keeps them moving when the outcome is uncertain.
That's the work we do together. As your coach, I can help.
