In this episode I welcome back Dr. Allen Roda, author of PhDone. We chat about everything from topic generation to oral defense.
Highlights:
- Don't get married to your research method - changing your method is not the end of the world (we promise!)
- Being flexible is part of the doctoral process - learning how to respond rather than react is a life-skill that will benefit you beyond your program
- Alignment is often a huge issue - you must have alignment from your topic to theoretical framework to purpose to research questions to method - check out this podcast to understand how to reach alignment with your project: https://www.buzzsprout.com/1547113/7455607
- Be thoughtful and intentional about every single change you make; this is YOUR project -- Own it!
- It's important listen to feedback about the scale and viability of your project - get narrow and laser-focused (we want you to finish!)
- Do not habituate to feedback and make revisions blindly - you must make decisions about what feedback you will implement thoughtfully
- Do not go into your defense defensive - celebrate this event where your project is going to be the focus of critical feedback from people who support your work
- Replace your judgement with curiosity
- You are not alone (you've found your tribe and we are here for you!)
