Episode Summary: Hey everyone! After a year-long break, I’m back, and the podcast is taking a new direction. Originally, this show was all about helping scientists who were thinking about leaving academic research, but life changes, and so have my interests. Now, I want to talk about something a bit broader – how we often feel like we're not measuring up to expectations that were set by someone else: jobs, family, society – you name it.
In this episode, I talk a little bit about the direction the podcast is heading in to address how to be more of ourselves in the face of all of life’s expectations.
Key Points:
Life happens, priorities shift – and that’s okay.
A lot of us are struggling to meet expectations that aren’t even ours.
Why do we stick to norms that make us feel terrible? Time to rethink that.
What’s Next: I’m still figuring out the details, but I’d love to bring in some guests eventually and maybe build a little community around these conversations. No promises yet on regular episodes – I’m going with the flow here.
Thanks for Listening! I’m excited to be back, and I’m looking forward to chatting more about all the new stuff I’ve been exploring. Let’s see where this goes together!
