Описание: Reflective Replay:


Ever held back the tears after receiving a rejection letter, email or phone call so your kids wouldn't see you cry? 

In this raw and real episode, we're tackling the gut-punch moments of academic life as a Mama – from grant rejections to viva struggles. Whether you're questioning your place in academia or wondering how to pick yourself up after a setback, this episode is your permission slip to be beautifully in-progress.


We dive into:

• The unique sting of academic rejection while juggling motherhood
• Why "not good enough" is a story we tell ourselves (and how to rewrite it)
• Practical strategies for bouncing back when your confidence takes a hit
• The power of the word "yet" in your academic journey
• How to model resilience for your kids while building it yourself

Plus, learn why treating yourself with the same grace you'd show your child's imperfect art might be the key to your academic success.

A powerful episode you won't want to miss!
