You are meant for so much more!
Academia has you overworked and underpaid, and it’s got you dreaming of a different path.
What once seemed like the perfect career with intellectual stimulation, travel, and your own schedule now feels more like a soul-crushing punishment.
All around you are burnt-out academics, sticking it out until they get tenure.
The increased publishing demands, combined with unrealistic service requirements are pushing academics to their limits.
You’ve lost your love for knowledge.
The spark is gone.
The idea of doing this year after year feels depressing.
You put so much into earning your PhD and you want to utilize it.
So, you have big plans of building a thriving business, leveraging your skills and abilities.
A business that will give you intellectual, location, financial and time freedom.
You dream of a life that brings you prosperity and well-being.
All your training so far has been for a career in academia.
They didn’t teach you in your PhD program how to build a business. It feels overwhelming.
How will you get clients? What price should you charge? How will you promote your offers in a way that feels good?
How will you balance starting your business with your other commitments?
That’s where our Business Academy comes in.
“I’m ready to turn my knowledge and passion into a successful business…
I just don’t know how to do it.”
So many PhDs have the passion, subject knowledge, and work ethic to create a successful online business… yet they struggle.
They don’t have the training or the confidence to take the next step.
And why would they?
Academia doesn’t train you to leverage your PhD.
They are frustrated, fearful and feel like their education is a curse that makes them overqualified for most jobs and underqualified for academia.
Sound familiar? If so, keep reading.

I’m Mel. A business professor turned online entrepreneur.
My story began when I returned to work after 12 weeks of leave and was punished for not publishing enough. I was ‘encouraged’ to publish anything/anywhere as quickly as I could so that the department could meet its metrics… I was tired of doing work with no impact, and I wanted to use my skills and knowledge for good to positively impact society.
So, I handed in my resignation, finished out the academic year and started my own business. That business allowed me to move back to my home country, pursue projects that brought me joy (rather than just ticking boxes), and have a real impact on the world. My kids get to grow up with their grandparents and cousins, and I have a lifestyle that I love.
I now have a thriving, lifestyle aligned business, and I want to help you do that too.
