Just (Ph)Do it!The 90-day PhD finisher's challenge
Finally beat procrastination and finish that PhD.
Stuck, stressed and frustrated? Forget about it! Beat procrastination and perfectionism, work smarter (not harder), and submit your thesis before the end of this year.Relaxed. And with success. Obviously.
If you're reading this, chances are, you know you what you should be doing:Finish that PhD.
Whether it's because you're excited to take the next career step, move back to your home country, finally earn a better salary or simply because you can't stand looking at your PhD project any longer - submitting has been on your list for a while.But for some reason, you haven't been able to do it until now.Time and again, you've set yourself a deadline and you've sworn to yourself that this time you'd meet it.But then, life happens:
Distractions
Over-editing
Perfectionism
Procrastination
Impostor syndrome
Writer's block
Missed deadlines
And before you know it, you're back to square one.You’re not alone - and you’re not lazy. Finishing a PhD is hard. But it doesn't have to be this hard.
Finishing a PhD isn't rocket science
All you need is
a clear goal
a plan
a growth mindset
...and support along the way.
The "Just (Ph)Do it!" - Challenge gives you all that:
A crystal-clear plan tailored to your unique goal.
A proven system that helped me finish, start my dream job and get published in Science.
Strategies to make sure you're not only efficient but effective.
Weekly group coaching where we solve problems and bottlenecks.
A peer group to keep you accountable (and sane).
Mindset tools to beat self-doubt and overthinking.
A network that lasts beyond the PhD.
This isn’t just a writing sprint.
It’s a reset, a system, and a community to finally become the person who finishes your PhD.
What's inside?
The Just (Ph)Do it! Finisher's challenge will equip you with the complete roadmap to write up your PhD or a manuscript in 3 months, while building a sustainable professional and personal network that will last for life and 10x your chances for a successful career .The course includes a full framework for setting up priorities, identifying the actions that really move the needle towards YOUR personal goal, planning your time so you make the most of your most productive hours and have time to relax and take regular breaks, so in 90 days you'll have a thesis you are proud of (and that convinces your PhD committee, too!).But we don't stop there!I believe with all my heart, that to really succeed in your PhD, and in life, you need people who are rooting for you. Which is why you will do this challenge with a group of other PhD finisher's who have the same goal as you.In guided weekly accountability group meetings, you'll share your goals, celebrate each other's progress and benefit from your complementary superpowers.If you're looking for a complete, tried-and-true system that you can use to finally finish the PhD and set yourself up for the career you’ve always wanted, this is it.

I received my PhD in conservation ecology from the Martin-Luther University Halle-Wittenberg in 2019.My research is published in high-impact disciplinary and interdisciplinary journals including Science and Conservation Letters and has been covered by a large range of broadcast media (e.g., BBC, WDR, Süddeutsche Zeitung, ARTE).From 2019 to 2024, I served as Science-Policy Coordinator of the German Centre for Integrative Biodiversity Research (iDiv) in Leipzig.
In this capacity, I represented iDiv in global biodiversity policy processes, developed and spear-headed an institution-wide policy strategy, advised national and federal state governments, planned and executed large high-level policy events, and supported scientists in presenting their research to both scientific and non-scientific audiences.Since 2021 I am certified as coach by the Coach Training Alliance (CTA).Dr. Andrea Perino - PhD Coaching and Training was founded in June 2024.
