Half Nester™

Thank you for following the journey · Course + Workbook

What you wrote in August should still be there in November.

You have done this kind of thinking before. On the back of a receipt, in the notes app, on a worksheet that is somewhere in the kitchen drawer now. Or you have not started at all, because you are not convinced any of it will still be there when you come back to it. That is the part this plan fixes.

You have been reading along with us, and that is the whole reason for this page. As a thank you, the plan that keeps your writing is $9.99 a month rather than $29.99, and the first seven days are on us.

Dr. Valerie Woo, who created Half Nester

Half Nester: Finding Your Rhythm was created by Dr. Valerie Woo, a pediatric dentist, entrepreneur, and mother of four, who went looking for language for this season, could not find any, and built the course she wished someone had handed her.

200+women have started Half Nester across its tiers

Coming home to yourself

Thoughtful and transformative, Half Nester gives language to and deep understanding of the changes and complexities of this season in my life. Offering time for much-needed reflection and tangible solutions to create rhythms that nurture my authentic self.

Reflection is not the hard part. Keeping it is.

The messy middle asks a lot of questions and answers almost none of them. Who am I when the house is quiet. What do I want the next ten years to feel like. What am I actually grieving. You sit with one of those, you get somewhere honest, and then the week takes over and the page is gone.

The loss is not the paper. It is that you never get to look back and see how far you moved, because there is nothing to look back at.

What this plan changes

Your answers are kept.

Course + Workbook is the plan with the interactive workbook that saves what you write to your own account. Same 18 lessons, same guided reflection, and the workbook now remembers.

That is the honest difference between the two monthly plans. The $9.99 Full Course plan gives you every lesson and every worksheet to fill in and print. Course + Workbook keeps what you put in them, which is why it is normally $29.99 a month.

Right time, right tools

Taking the Half Nester course came at exactly the right time in my life. As I navigate a season filled with transitions (one child heading off to college, aging parents needing more support, and trying to rediscover myself), I was feeling a mix of emotions that I didn't always have the space to process.

Before you decide

What happens on day 8?

Your first payment of $9.99 goes through, and then $9.99 on that same date every month until you cancel. Nothing is charged during the 7 days, and nothing else is added at checkout. You do enter a card today so the plan can start, it just is not charged until day 8.

How do I cancel?

Sign in, open your account page at /profile, and choose Manage my plan. That opens your billing, where you can cancel or change your card yourself. Cancel inside the first 7 days and you are never charged at all. If anything gets stuck, email val@drvaleriewoo.com and we take care of it for you.

Does the $9.99 ever go up?

Not while you stay. This rate belongs to your subscription, so it holds at $9.99 a month for as long as that subscription is active, even though the plan's list price is $29.99. The one thing to know honestly: the rate lives with the subscription, so if you cancel, it ends when the subscription does, and coming back later means coming back at whatever the plan costs then.

How is this different from the $9.99 Full Course plan?

Saving, and that is the whole of it. The Full Course plan opens every lesson and gives you every worksheet to fill in and print, but the workbook does not remember what you typed. This one does. Your answers are stored on your account, so you can close the tab, come back in November, and find August still there. That is why Course + Workbook is normally $29.99 a month.

Is this a different course from the one I have heard about?

No. Same course, same 18 lessons, same Val. The difference is the workbook that comes with it and what that workbook does with what you write.

How much time does it take?

It is fully self-paced, and nothing expires while your plan is active. A couple of short lessons a week, or a quiet weekend, or a stretch where you set it down and pick it back up. Since your answers are saved now, setting it down costs you nothing.

What if I am already paying for a Half Nester plan?

Then this is a change to that plan rather than a second one, and it belongs in your billing so you are never paying for two at once. Open Manage my plan from /profile, or email val@drvaleriewoo.com and we will move you across ourselves.

Give this season somewhere to live.

Take the 7 days, fill in a worksheet or two, and come back next week to find them exactly where you left them. If it is not for you, you can close it out before day 8 and owe nothing.
