What is the Excavation™, and why start here?
The Excavation is a guided, reflective coaching process that helps you understand the person behind the application. Together, we explore your values, strengths, motivations, meaningful experiences, and the direction you want your life and work to take. You do not need to arrive with a polished story or a settled career plan.
For master’s applicants, it connects your next degree to a purpose. We look at what you have learned from your academic, professional, and personal experiences, what you want to deepen or change, and why further study makes sense now. That gives us a stronger basis for choosing programs and developing a focused, authentic application.
You leave with a written roadmap bringing together the themes, stories, strengths, and practical next steps we uncover. We use it to guide program choices, statements, and interviews. It is also something you can return to as you make career and leadership decisions beyond admissions.
The Excavation creates the foundation; your coaching hours help you put it into practice. You remain the author of your applications. Comprehensive partnerships include the Excavation once, and the flexible Excavation + ten-hour package keeps the full process separate from your ten coaching hours.
Flexible coaching and the Excavation™
| Offer | Standard USD |
|---|---|
| One hour of focused coaching | $295 |
| Ten coaching hours | $2,500 |
| Excavation™ + written roadmap | $1,200 |
| Excavation™ + ten coaching hours | $3,700 |
The Excavation is separate from your coaching hours. Your full reflective coaching process and written roadmap are followed by ten hours of agreed application support. Coaching sessions, agreed preparation, program research, and written feedback count toward those hours. Hours are valid for six months. Flexible coaching does not promise completion of a fixed number of applications.
Comprehensive application packages include the Excavation once; it is not charged again as an add-on.

Your questions, answered
Do I need to know which country I want?
No. Comparing destinations and understanding what matters to you can be part of our work together.
Do you advise beyond the UK and Western Europe?
Yes. My work has spanned more than 50 countries, including recruiting across European, Turkish, Russian, and Indian markets. Western Europe is a particular strength. We will discuss your destinations and confirm where I can add value before agreeing the work.
Can you help with scholarships?
We can explore relevant opportunities and agree support for particular scholarship applications. Eligibility and deadlines vary, and funding is never guaranteed.
What about research degrees or specialist applications?
Tell me what you are considering. Research proposals, writing samples, and other specialist requirements need a scope suited to the program.
Is MBA coaching included here?
MBA and EMBA applicants have their own dedicated services. Explore MBA Services in the main navigation.
Do you provide immigration advice?
Visa and immigration advice belongs with a qualified immigration specialist. We can identify the questions to take to one as you plan.
