Dissertation Deliverance, Strategic Semester, and SDJ are my newest offerings for Black women in higher education.
Hi y’all,

How are you? How is summer going? How is your writing going? What’s on your to-do list?

I’m doing well, and my summer is going well. My writing? Well, it’s going. You know how that is. And my to-do list? I’ve been busy knocking things out, and I’m excited to share with you some new things at LELA House.

Dissertation Deliverance, Strategic Semester, and SDJ are my newest offerings for Black women in higher education.

Dissertation Deliverance

Dissertation Deliverance is 1:1 weekly accountability coaching for ABD students who need support and encouragement to use your time and writing and resources in ways that advance you through your program. ABD is a very isolating time when it is easy to wander aimlessly.

If you want to put in place systems, boundaries, and accountability to help you maintain forward progress, then Dissertation Deliverance is for you. Click below to learn more, sign up, or share with someone you believe may be looking for this transformation in their lives.

Strategic Semester

Strategic Semester is a 16-week program that begins with 1:1 work to move you from idea to outline and then transitions into co-writing group sessions with flash coaching each session and accountability partners each session.

If you are looking for a plan, support, writing time, and accountability to write your first 100 pages, then Strategic Semester is for you. Click below to learn more, sign up, or share with someone you believe may be looking for this transformation in their lives.

Sistahs on the Doctoral Journey (SDJ)

Sistahs on the Doctoral Journey (SDJ) is a community for Black women in higher education (from ABD through your entire career) where we connect with other women who understand our particular pressures, celebrate our joys, and understand our careers as part of a larger legacy that began with our 19th Century ancestral aunties and continues through the work we leave behind. It’s a monthly membership that includes the following: a weekly reading from a 19th Century author with an asynchronous discussion centered on what we can learn from the past and apply to our present; monthly live meet-ups; 1:1 matching between members to build personal relationships; pillar discussions that align with different stages of our careers; writing and career resources.

If you are looking for ongoing community and support, understanding yourself as part of an ongoing legacy that extends beyond yourself, networking and mentorship with other Black women on the doctoral journey, and resources and mindsets to apply to their daily encounters, then SDJ is for you. Click below to learn more, sign up, or share with someone you believe may be looking for this transformation in their lives.

Writing Prep Menu

I was talking to my coach today, and I told him I don’t have a problem disciplining myself to sit down to write. My problem is once I’ve sat down, I may or may not have anything to write about. After exploring that problem through some powerful questions, I realized I lack the discipline to make sure I prep before sitting down to write.

So I decided to create a menu of prep activities I can choose from before each writing session. I’ll choose 2-3 prep activities to do before I write. You’ll see the activities in the image of the spreadsheet. (Who doesn’t love a good spreadsheet?) These prep activities make sense to me, because I tailor-made the list for myself. I invite you, however, to use any of these prep activities in any way that works for you.

Better yet, post a comment about how you prepare to write!

Sistahs on the Doctoral Journey

As you know, I’ve been shifting and refining my coaching focus since February. Well, here it is December, and I’m refining again. I’m shifting to serve black women on their doctoral journeys. All of my moves since February have been leading me here, and I’m excited about what’s on the horizon.

Part of that horizon includes starting a membership site. I’m in the mood to get my projects underway, so I created it today! It’s called Sistahs on the Doctoral Journey.

I created a membership site where women can connect with one another through posts I’ll add weekly, monthly events, mastermind groups, and 1:1 coaching.

If you resonate with this shift, I invite you to become a member. If you don’t personally resonate with this shift, I invite you to share this information with someone who does.

Please check out Sistahs on the Doctoral Journey and consider joining. Let me know if you have any questions.

Writing Coaching with Robert

Check out the next episode of Real & Raw with Roshaunda where I do a bit of writing coaching. My friend and fellow life coach, Robert Hughes, wanted some help in the prewriting stage of the writing process, and what resulted was an impromptu coaching session. Take a look to see what writing coaching can look like, and comment below with any questions or “Aha!” moments you may have.
