Filling out expense reports and realizing how much I've had on my credit card for a conference. Such a huge barrier and should be covered up front for grad students. ๐Ÿ™Š

Post-PhD life is confusing because it's like: "Revise and resubmit this paper to get your research out there (and on your CV), please!" "But also you're not employed yet so you should spend your time applying for jobs." But ALSO you're still burnt out. So that's where I am.

My best piece of advice for #PhDlife (or...anyone in academia?): connect with support humans who will sit on Zoom and write with you. That's how the dissertation got written and how I'll still manage to write even as I'm on the job hunt. Big love to Jacquelyn Sertic today. :)
