We love a bookshelf tour! Comps were the worst. And then writing my proposal was possibly worser. But I'm finally actually writing my dissertation and really enjoying myself!
tell me I’m crazy but I literally hugged my iPad when you start telling the story about your mental health. I’m exactly at the same situation as you (second year id PhD & stressing out about the final doctoral training). Bon travail & send a warmest virtual hug for you!
When I was preparing for my quals and stressed, more advanced students in my PhD program reminded me that it would be a huge hassle for a committee to fail someone--they want you to pass more than you do! That took a lot of stress off that I was putting on myself.
Hi 👋 I was wondering if you could make content about How to find housing as a new PhD student? perhaps comparing pros and cons of shared houses, studios, and on-campus housing.
Do you know what you want to do with your Ph.D. after you graduate? I finish coursework this year and I am nervous about the dissertation process/academic job search!

Working in bed actually isn’t too bad. Sometimes the comfort makes you more productive

This is true! - and something one of my committee members said (LOL!) still feels hard to remember though, but I'm trying
Wishing you the best, Katherine.

I could briefly talk about this! I feel this is still something I struggle with but I could definitely talk about options :)
Would you mind giving us a video on your favorite history books?
I just started watching you and you seem so nice and sweet 💚
My next video which I have filmed but not edited is a bookshelf tour, and I will talk about some of my most-read books! Stay tuned!
i feel like i am like preemptively traumatized by comps lol....
Ooops! Hope I'm not contributing to this, but also it feels pretty traumatizing living through it lol

Ideally find a job as a Professor, but depending on the job market we will see. I would also be open to working in a private high school or museums !
