I know the academic world can be discouraging ‘cause once I was you.
I started my neuropsychology PhD with the greatest enthusiasm and ambition, but I soon came to the conclusion that the scientific world can be very harsh. I went through a burnout in my second year, and was completely overwhelmed by all that was coming at me as a first-generation academic. I felt lost and lonely, I didnβt think I would be up for it, and I thought about giving up.
But with lots of professional and personal support, learning about and experimenting with stress-management skills, and resetting my work-life balance, I finally managed to finish my PhD in time while being my most relaxed self. After finishing my PhD, I started teaching other researchers to navigate through the harsh academic environment. Iβd love to show you how you can re-find your confidence, chill vibes, and fun science times!

“The course was very helpful, I wish I had found it behore starting my PhD π (this is my perfectionist voice talking haha). I’m still not sure if I’m going to graduate as a PhD but I have chosen some goals (health and work related) to achieve during my last months. Watching your videos and guidance, gave me a lot of tools and confidence for making that possible.”

Book me for a workshop
And upgrade the stress-management skills of your entire team, department, or even university!
Not with a boring presentation, but with practical tools, active exercises, and some great fun. I will send everyone home with newfound positive energy, confidence, and a smile on their faces :-).
We can discuss and adapt the specifics, but I have some great workshops ready to go (both offline and online).
