Our process is based in conversation and instructive companionship. Our coaches begin the conversation by sharing what inspired them to write their blog posts.
Allan Reeder
Allan on the importance of trust — in the process, and in the details of your own story.
Cara Feinberg
Cara shares her own college-essay experience, and the relief of finding a good listener.
Eliza Turner
Eliza shares her experience as a parent of a daughter navigating the college-essay process.
Kate Leary
Kate on not knowing exactly where your essay is going — and the importance of that uncertainty.
Kate’s coaching calendar is closed for 2025.
Steve Edwards
Steve on first drafts, and how, like time-lapse videos, stories don’t emerge fully formed, but detail by detail.
