Intellectual independence requires structural freedom
I'm on a mission to help intellectuals earn independence because I believe in the power of knowledge to save society.
I help early-career academics ship what matters for tenure, and established academics sell and scale to protect what they've built.
Transformations I offer
Get unstuck with Resistance Reboot
I help academics procrastinating on what matters most make changes that stick so they can get seen, get paid, and get free. All in 6 weeks. All in community. Space is limited.
What participants say
Krystale and the community have been transformational in shaping how I approach my day-to-day writing and research. I highly recommend anyone who has been feeling stuck or struggles with resistance to join.
-Assistant Professor, R1
This experience has been transformative. I've made countless attempts to force productivity through different systems and have attended all the bootcamps, but any changes have always been short-lived. What makes Rise Hive different isn't just that Krystale is exceptional (though she is), but that she's created a space where vulnerability, collaboration, and community building are central to the work.
-Research Assistant Professor, R1
Resistance Reboot is a game changer for academics!! In just a short time my perspective on work, goal-setting, rest, time, systems, energy, and rewards has completely shifted.
