The MSL Launch Cohort is an 8-week small-group coaching program designed to help aspiring MSLs build a focused strategy for transitioning into their first MSL role.
Limited to 8 participants, the cohort combines live instruction, practical resources, skills practice, group coaching, and peer learning. Each session focuses on an essential part of the MSL transition, helping you apply what you learn to your professional positioning, networking, and interview preparation.
The founding cohort rate is $500 below the planned $2,444 investment for future cohorts.
Your investment includes eight live 90-minute coaching sessions, eight weeks of private community access, session recordings, weekly activities, practical resources, live skills practice, group feedback, and support from Shelby and your cohort peers.
Enrollment is limited to 8 founding participants and will close when all seats are filled.
Participants will receive access to a private MSL Launch Cohort community space containing:
The community is intended for general questions and shared learning. It does not include extensive individual document review, private coaching, or urgent interview support.
Every component of the MSL Launch Cohort is designed to help you clarify your value, strengthen your professional positioning, build practical MSL job-search skills, and move forward with greater confidence and a focused transition strategy.
The MSL Launch Program provides aspiring MSLs with personalized 1:1 coaching and instruction to prepare for a successful transition into their first MSL role.
Every session is conducted 1:1 with Shelby via Zoom, allowing the coaching, feedback, and resources to be tailored to your professional background, chosen therapeutic area, career goals, and job-search progress.
Your investment includes a pre-program assessment, 10 private 60-minute sessions, a personalized MSL career roadmap, one MSL-aligned CV for your chosen therapeutic area, one refined MSL interview presentation slide deck, program guides and resources, personalized post-session recommendations, optional session recordings, and between-session email support.
Between-session email support is available for brief questions, progress updates, and clarification related to your coaching plan. Shelby will typically respond within two business days. Interview and presentation preparation may be addressed during your remaining coaching sessions. Requests requiring extensive document review, additional CV versions, additional presentation reviews, urgent interview preparation, or coaching beyond the 10 included sessions may require the purchase of an additional service.
Every component of the MSL Launch 1:1 Coaching Program is designed to help you clarify your value, position your experience effectively, strengthen your interview readiness, and approach your MSL transition with greater confidence and a personalized strategy.

Thrive MSL Coaching Helps You
“Shelby’s guidance was absolutely crucial in helping me breakthrough into my first MSL role. She helped me understand the role better than any research I was able to do on my own because she has lived it. I had several light bulb moments throughout our sessions and gained extreme confidence as my big interview and presentation were approaching. She was enthusiastic, kind but straightforward, energetic, and understood what aspiring MSLs need to know as they enter medical affairs interviews. At the conclusion of the interviews for which I was offered the position, I was told that I was a unanimous decision! I was so incredibly proud of that accomplishment. I owe a lot of the preparation and confidence building to Shelby as she helped me see things I hadn’t seen before in preparing me for a career in medical affairs.”
