Five ways to work on your portfolio before January.
One offer a day, Monday November 23 to Friday November 27. Each one is a different amount of help with the same thing: a portfolio that shows how you think.
A new deal opens every morning at 7:00 am CST and stays open for 24 hours, until 6:59 am CST the next day. When it closes, it closes.

Everything happens online. Pick the one that fits your month now, and come back on its day.
- One deal opens each morning, Monday November 23 to Friday November 27, at 7:00 am CST.
- It stays open for a full 24 hours and closes at 6:59 am CST the next morning, so nobody loses a day to their time zone.
- When a deal closes, the checkout closes with it. Nothing here is bundled, so you can buy one, or more than one, or none.
- I built it this way instead of one flat discount because these five things are not interchangeable. A $27 recording and six weeks one-on-one solve different sizes of the same problem, and putting them on the same page on the same day would make you choose on price.

The Portfolio That Got Me Hired
Two portfolios of mine, side by side. One got interviews. One got the job.
I spent a lot of money on a certificate course, built the project it told me to build, and put it in a portfolio that got me interviews and no offers. Then I took a small website rewrite, wrote it up decision by decision, and that one got me a senior content design role. This recording walks through both. Same person, same ability, two very different pieces of writing about the work.
What's inside
- Both portfolios on screen, the one that stalled and the one that worked
- What I changed in the write-up, and why the visuals were never the issue
- The interview questions I couldn't answer, and where those answers belonged in the case study
- The small project nobody tells you to use, and why it outperformed the course project
- 30 minutes, recorded, yours to keep
"I'm LIVING for this dramatic and reassuring presentation, thank you!!"

The Portfolio Review
30 minutes of me going through your portfolio on video, plus a written plan of what to change first.
You come away knowing what to change first, what to change next, and what to leave alone. Working that out on your own is the hard part, because you are too close to your own portfolio to see what is landing, and the people who could tell you are the ones deciding whether to hire you. I spend 30 minutes going through your work on video, saying what I notice as I notice it: what is already strong, what a reviewer skips past, and where I would want to hear more from you. Then a written plan you can work through in order. Behind it is a hiring panel I have sat on, the case studies and portfolios I read for my own students, and 10+ years of being hired and rejected myself. There is no call to book and nothing to prepare.
What's inside
- A 30-minute recorded video of me going through your portfolio the way a hiring panel would, start to finish
- The questions a reviewer would ask, and the places your current write-up leaves them hanging
- A written action plan: what to fix first, what to fix next, what to leave alone
- Back to you within 5 to 10 business days
- Asynchronous from end to end, so there is no call to book and no time zone to solve
- You email a link, or attach the files, to hello@thecontentdesign.co. That is the only thing you have to do
"Your approach on this is 100% spot on! Thank heavens for people like you."

The Case Study Reset
4 hours of my full attention, one-on-one. The case study you've been avoiding becomes your best one.
4 hours with me, one-on-one, taken as two 2-hour sessions or one 4-hour session, evenings and weekends included, so you do not have to spend vacation days on this. We work on it together, in the session, until it holds up. We take one case study you already have and rebuild it from the thinking out, which is usually where the problem is rather than in the layout. We write it together, and you direct. I ask the questions and push on the answers, you decide what goes in. By the end, you'll walk someone through it decision by decision, and the hardest question they ask will be one you already have an answer for.
What's inside
- 4 hours, one-on-one, taken as two 2-hour sessions or one 4-hour session, evenings and weekends included
- One existing case study, pulled apart and put back together around your decisions
- The parts you could not explain in an interview, traced back to what you actually knew at the time
- You direct, you have the final say, and the work stays yours
- A case study you can walk anyone through, including the parts that went wrong
"If I had tried to piece my portfolio together on my own, it would have been nearly impossible."

The Portfolio Reset
Six weeks, one-on-one, the whole portfolio.
This is the deepest work I do, and until now I have only done it quietly, with one person at a time. It works, so I am opening two spots. 6 weeks, one-on-one: a landing page, two case studies, an about page, and a contact page. We write it together and decide together which visuals go in. Where the real screens are under NDA, we build artifacts that carry your thinking instead of the company's assets. Then we rehearse it out loud, as many times as it takes, until walking someone through your work feels like telling a story you know by heart instead of defending something you hope holds up.
What's inside
- 6 weeks working one-on-one with me
- A landing page, two case studies, an about page, and a contact page
- Written together, with the visuals chosen together and built
- NDA work handled: where the screens cannot be shown, we make artifacts that carry the thinking instead
- Rehearsal, until you can present any page of it and hold your own on the follow-up questions
- Two spots, because that is how many weeks I have
"Before working with Rox, my portfolio was all over the place. Random samples, no clear story. Now it actually says: this is what I'm about."
Alyson D."I could not have done it without you. Thank you so much for mentoring me, making me believe in my talents, and shining a light on how I want to position myself."

Think Out Loud Live
4 weeks, live, building one case study alongside nine other people.
Four weeks of live calls, and you leave with a finished case study you are free to show anyone, whether it is your first or your best work has been locked behind an NDA for years. We all work from the same brief, the screens someone moves through to cancel a subscription and ask for their money back, so you get to hear other people think their way through the same problem you are solving. Bring your questions to any call and I answer them there. In the hot seats you present your work and watch other people present theirs. That collaboration goes into your case study, and it is the part hiring managers most want to see and almost nobody writes down. We start January 15, 2027.
What's inside
- 4 weeks of live calls, starting January 15, 2027, all of them recorded
- One brief for the whole cohort: the screens for cancelling a subscription and asking for a refund
- Hot seats: present your work, get pushed on it, watch how everyone else thinks, and bring any question you have to the call
- The collaboration itself goes in your case study, which is the part most portfolios leave out
- A finished case study you can show anyone
- 30 days in The Co., my membership, starting January 15 alongside the cohort
"In just 3 weeks, I went from curious beginner to confident professional with a case study to show!"
Laura, UX designer"This talk has got me ready to run through a brick wall."
