The inaugural January 2026 cohort is now up and running, and it’s already proving to be a thoughtful, dynamic space for researchers to connect, reflect, and move forward.
If you missed this round, the next opportunity to join is April, and now’s the time to start thinking ahead.
If you’re navigating the complexities of qualitative research – from messy methods decisions to analytic uncertainty and writing fatigue – you’re not alone. And you don’t have to figure it all out solo.
The Research Circle is a structured, flexible support space for qualitative researchers who want to move forward with more clarity, confidence, and less overwhelm. It’s not another course. It’s your research support system.
What Is the Research Circle?
It’s a 6- or 12-month membership for researchers who want expert guidance, responsive tools, and a trusted mentor to walk alongside them – whether you’re designing a study, making analytic decisions, or figuring out how to keep going without burning out.
Inside the Circle, you’ll find:
✅ Access to all of my training: Masterclasses, Essentials, and Webinars
✅ A curated resource vault (tools, templates, checklists, and worked examples)
✅ Monthly Q&A calls for timely, tailored support
✅ Mindset & Momentum Mapping sessions to help you plan and stay on track
✅ Quarterly 1:1 coaching (with a bonus session for 12-month members)
✅ A peer community via WhatsApp
✅ Everything on-demand — dip in when you need it, step back when you don’t
Who’s It For?
Whether you’re a PhD student, postdoc, supervisor, academic, or practitioner working with qualitative data, the Research Circle is designed for people who want:
To sharpen their thinking and build confidence in their decisions
Tools and checklists that make research more manageable
Space to talk through tough questions and find clarity
To maintain momentum without pushing into burnout
