be a human and a scholar.
it isn’t as easy as it sounds, but it makes all the difference.
grad school is hard.
and that difficulty isn’t the same for everyone.
have you ever wished for a place where you could be honest about how hard grad school is, and get actual, thoughtful support?
do you feel isolated from your peers, colleagues, campus, or field? or like the only person who is struggling right now?
are you looking for a space to learn more about the Actual Work of being a scholar (reading, writing, professionalisation, and the other million things you need to do!!) without having to feel embarrassed about not knowing how to do it yet?
Thrive PhD was made just for you.
“Katy has been the most consistent shining light for me as I’ve navigated the ups and downs of writing a dissertation. She has offered me amazing practical advice in moving forward with my work, while always reminding me to check in with my human self. Sometimes just having someone tell you you’re doing a great job, makes the world of difference <3”
ways to work with me
(with grad school budgets in mind!)
are you looking for people who get it in a worldwide community built for the grad student budget?
want to make the most of your summer with structure, support, and fun?
bring me into your student group or campus!
for when you want high powered, personalized support!
“I would recommend working with Katy to anyone who needs a supportive and knowledgeable coach during the difficult challenge of completing a PhD. She genuinely cares so much and has so much to offer. Her support and that in the Thrive community she has built, is the supportive grad school experience that I never had in my own university. I can honestly say that working with Katy has been one of the most important, most supportive and the most helpful investments I have made into my PhD and more importantly, myself. Without her help and care, I would have dropped out of my programme.”
