In this episode, I discuss publishing for promotion within academia. As you navigate and plan your academic career, it's essential to understand how publishing intersects with each stage of a professorship. From the early years leading up to the first promotion to the later stages of tenure and beyond, strategic publishing plays a crucial role in shaping our professional trajectory.
 
I emphasize the importance of cultivating a mindset that prioritizes quality over quantity in our publications. Rather than succumbing to a scarcity mindset, where the focus is solely on churning out papers, I advocate for a curated approach by publishing work that aligns closely with our academic mission and long-term goals.
 
Throughout the episode, I provide practical strategies to help you navigate publishing for promotion. From reverse engineering publishing timelines to crafting a compelling narrative around your publications, I offer actionable insights to support your academic growth.
 
By aligning your publishing efforts with your academic mission, you can make meaningful contributions to your field while advancing your professional goals on your own terms. So, take ownership of your academic career and leave a lasting legacy beyond promotion requirements!

You have the deep-rooted knowledge and experience to create the career and life that you want! But first, you must filter through all the messages about what work looks like and the social and cultural nuances in academia so you can act on your self-trust.  
 
In today's episode, I explore the importance of trusting oneself amidst the bombardment of societal and cultural expectations. I present five experiments aimed at nurturing self-trust. By engaging in these experiments, academics will cultivate a more profound sense of self-trust, recognizing its transformative power in shaping both personal and professional endeavors. So, join me on this journey of self-trust and discover the liberating potential of trusting yourself!
