Grad School Femtoring: Inclusive Grad School Stories, Personal Development, and Productivity Tips for First-Gen BIPOCs

Shownotes Transcript

In this solo episode, I cover the topic of how to overcome dissertation writing anxiety. Writing anxiety refers to the feelings of fear, stress, and/or uncertainty you may feel when engaging in some sort of writing, especially academic writing. This episode discusses six common obstacles that can get in the way of you making progress in your writing and can also contribute to writing anxiety. They include: procrastination, lack of motivation, time management, struggling with the research process, struggling with addressing feedback, and dealing with imposter syndrome. I also offer several strategies to overcome these obstacles.
