Guided Momentum Method
Guided Momentum is a self-guided, step-by-step coaching experience designed for people who want structure, clarity, and momentum without having to book calls or wait on a coach. You get a clear path to follow, with each step broken down into simple, actionable tasks so you always know exactly what to do next. This package includes videos, guided exercises, prompts, and tools that walk you through the same process we would go through in coaching sessions: from clarifying your goals, to creating a realistic plan, to staying accountable to yourself and tracking your progress over time. You move at your own pace, revisit any step as often as you like, and build confidence as you see yourself taking consistent action. Guided Momentum is perfect if you’re motivated, independent, and ready to make real changes—but want a proven framework to follow instead of figuring it all out alone. You can also always buy hourly support if you want to chat live for extra support!

Amanda W.
Elite Undergraduate Admissions Coach
I have been recognized as a Leland Top Coach. I have had several years experience with College Admissions consulting, helping students get into their dream schools including some of the most competitive institutions nationally and internationally (UCLA, Berkeley, Cornell, UPenn, NYU, Duke, and BYU to name a few). I have also specialized in helping students apply to niche programs, graduate and MBA programs, and schools like Brigham Young University, but that's not all. My professional career has included my role as a management consultant, where I built pricing models for insurance companies, evaluated presidential foundations’ programming, and improved marketing at large corporations. What most informs my approach to admissions, however, is my time working on the other side of the admissions process as Director of Admissions for the University of Redlands School of Education and later Regional Director of Enrollment and Operations for both the School of Education and the School of Business. In addition, I was an Assistant Director of Recruitment for the Claremont Colleges, where I was responsible for the recruitment and marketing strategy of the Keck Graduate Institute. Right out of my graduate program at Harvard, I worked for Google's HR department and at Kaplan, developing a national curriculum in reading, math and writing for K-8th graders. I've co-authored a Kaplan textbook on writing and was responsible for training instructors on best practices in pedagogy. As someone with a wide range of experiences personally and professionally, I love helping students shape and mold their own stories to help them stand out in the crowd. In my free time, I love all things British royals, ballroom dancing, traveling internationally, and watching movies with complex plot lines.
