Frequently Asked Questions

Book a session (15, 30, 45, or 60 minutes) through Calendly, and we meet via video call at your scheduled time. Come with specific questions or challenges, and you'll leave with actionable advice. No long-term commitment required.

A 15-minute session is ideal for a single focused question—getting feedback on an idea, a quick strategy check, or a specific technical question. For deeper discussions or multiple topics, consider a 30 or 60-minute session.

Come with a clear question or challenge. The more specific you are, the more value you'll get. If helpful, share context in advance (a brief email or document). Sessions are most effective when you arrive focused and ready to dive in.

Yes, many clients book recurring micro-consulting sessions for ongoing advice without a formal coaching commitment. You can book ad-hoc or set up a regular cadence. For more structured ongoing support, consider the coaching program.

Micro-consulting works well for AI strategy questions, career decisions, technical architecture feedback, vendor evaluations, team structure advice, and specific problem-solving. For broader development needs, coaching may be more appropriate.

Sessions are priced by duration: 15 minutes ($99), 30 minutes ($190), 45 minutes ($250), and 60 minutes ($300). Payment is made at booking through Calendly. The 30-minute session is most popular for balancing depth with efficiency.
