Coach for female academics

Coaching for women in academia

​

I help female researchers take control of their careers so that they achieve more and find more joy in their academic lives - without burning out.

​

In my research, I am study meaningful work, work identity and stories about what is important to us. In 2020, I trained as a coach and process consultant at DISPUK (an education center for psychologists and other human-related professions). I have since used my research interests and my ability to coach individuals and groups  to create change and help female researchers. I am passionate  about creating  a world where more women do research and where research is more diverse and inclusive.

​

My clients call my coaching "academic therapy" because I am no ordinary coach. I focus on deep transformation and woman-centered way of coaching. I don't talk much about goal setting, plans and accountability, but a lot about intentions, inspiration, curiosity, self-beliefs and compassion.

​

Do you feel? ​

• That you would like to have more control over your academic career

• That you lack direction and a clear academic profile

• That you have too many balls in the air and find it difficult to prioritize

• That your work/life balance is difficult

• That you lack time to write your publications and research applications

• That you have difficulty communicating with confidence who you are and building your network

• That you want a more self-loving way of working

​

​

​It is important to me to... ​

• Give you the ideas you need to take control of your career.

• Ask the right questions so that you experience change in your life.

• Find the sustainable solutions that suits you.

• Untangle the complexity and making it simple so that you know what to do to move forward.

• Break with unproductive self-narratives and exploring new ones together.

​

 

My strenghs are: 

Idea generator: I see patterns where no one else does and I always have multiple ideas of what to do next.

Career designer: I am good at thinking strategically, so you get the most out of the your time and energy.

Relationship Builder: I just love to cheer on my clients,  support them, and make them shine.

1:1 coaching​

We start from your problem and tailor a process that suits you. It could be that you need help to get rid of your insecurity or imposter syndrome, that you lack ideas for landing the next position, that you need a more strategic career plan. Or that  you are stuck and need help moving forward. Or that you would like to develop a better and more productive writing system. Or you are on the verge of burnout and need help to take better care of yourself. I have seen most things in the academic world and I am sure I can help you.

Examples of coaching topics

1. Craft your academic profile and write your academic mission statement.

2. Design your career so that you use your time and energy properly and in a way that supports your academic profile. We develop your publication list and talk about next steps for you.

3. Develop your mindset. You can make all the plans in world, but if you're still trapped in an unproductive or negative self-narrative, you will get no where. I help you with mindset transformation that are suitable for the next step in your career.

For the university​

I offer coaching in groups for writing retreats or for departments that want to support their female researchers. My coaching is adapted to the needs of the participants and I create change regardless of whether it is female researchers at Ph.D., postdoc or associate professor level. I offer short, intensive programs - or longer-term programs for anyone who wants to play big in their careers.
