Late-night podcast where I speak with PhDs about their research subjects, their decision on studying it and its importance throughout academic life. A podcast of entertainment and education, whose aim is to approach students and graduates who want to go through their future careers inside or outside of academia with a PhD and for those who are on a moment of uncertainty in continuing their studies further, as if we are having a drink and talk about PhD culture at a lounge on a late-night summer.

    Solo Session: “Failure” in PhD Explained

    Students and Graduates! The heavy feeling of “I’m failing” that hits when supervisor feedback is slow, sharp, or hard to predict, and how that can spiral into imposter syndrome, low achiever or fraudster thoughts. In this late-night talk, we reframe failure as a normal learning stage to strengthen your research and keep going. —> Identify gaps to improve. —> Reframe your approach to your PhD. —> Normalise "Failure". If this resonates with you, whatever stage you're at your PhD, than this late-night talk is for you!

    Solo Session: PhD and Society

    Students and Graduates! Feeling “behind in life” while you’re deep in a PhD can hit hard, especially when friends seem to be racing through the traditional milestones: a car, a wedding, children, a house, a job title that looks neat on paper. If this resonates with you, then this late-night solo session is for you! I share with you the following: —> Why undertaking a PhD is personal rather than a fight against society—> Rejecting checklists and fixed timelines as a measure of worth—> Defining what “behind” means and normalising self-criticism—> Reframing: rest, recharge, and remember a PhD is a marathon Thank you all for tuning in, it has been a pleasure!

  7. Solo Session: How your Hobbies can help progress your PhD?

    Solo Session: How your Hobbies can help progress your PhD?

    Students and Graduates! Many PhD researchers treat hobbies as optional, a luxury to be postponed until after deadlines ease. The reality is the opposite: a modest, regular hobby can make the hard work of a doctorate more creative, sustainable, and social. In this solo session, I show why and how hobbies are significant for the progression of your PhD journey. I share the following three reasons: —> Balance; —> Social Skills; —> Reminisce lost joys. Whatever hobby you have that fulfil after hard days of research, the point is not to add pressure. It is to choose small, repeatable habits that return more energy than they cost. Thank you all for tuning in, it has been a pleasure!

    Solo Session: The Renaissance Bro Mindset For PhD Success

    Students and Graduates! What if the best model for a resilient, fulfilling PhD is older than the lab coat? Do you consider yourself as a Renaissance Scholar when you produce knowledge towards PhD success? In this Late-Night Solo Session, I combine the thoughts of current trend of the Renaissance Man or Woman as a useful frame to your PhD milestones through the following trifecta effect: —> Curiosity about new knowledge —> Proactivity in shaping your research and seek opportunities —> Harmony with yourself and by valuing your closest ones If this conversation helps you see your PhD with new clarity, share it with a fellow researcher so others can find PhD Lounge! What trait—curiosity, proactivity, or harmony—will you lean into this week? Thank you all for tuning in, it has been a pleasure! Bibliography: Heller, A. (1978). Renaissance Man.
