Hi, I’m Jo VanEvery, PhD. I help academics juggle their work and build confidence to align their career with their values.

I firmly believe:

  • The university can be a community of scholars engaged in intellectual inquiry
  • You can be committed to your work without burning out
  • Your academic career has the potential for joy and success

It’s not easy to live your academic life by these principles.
But it is possible. You are not alone.

You can:

  • Develop a writing practice grounded in your intellectual curiosity.
  • Publish as a way of contributing to the collective project of advancing knowledge.
  • Engage with students as novice members of the scholarly community.
  • And rediscover glimmers of joy.

I can help you make that possibility a reality. I provide support and structures to help you. All of my services are delivered remotely online. Clients have told me that my services have transformed their lives. How you work with me depends on your needs and budget.

Coaching

I provide individual coaching support for identifying your goals and immediate priorities, and for establishing habits over time that will enable you to achieve your goals without burning out.

The Academic Writing Studio

The Academic Writing Studio is an online community that enables me to help more people. It offers a regular virtual Meeting With Your Writing to support your writing practice, and regular group coaching to help you figure out how to juggle your work and your life.

Books

I’ve also written a series of Short Guides to help you translate those big principles into concrete actions that make scholarly writing and publishing meaningful activities. They also include the kinds of questions I might ask in a coaching session to help you figure out how to apply the principles in your specific circumstances.
