In this episode I talk with Anahita, who is a fellow PhD-coach on productivity and mental health.
We talk about the following topics:
- maintaining a healthy work-life balance, what do you prioritize?
- both the upside and downside of having so much freedom in your PhD
- process goals versus result goals in academia – the mindset with which Anahita started her PhD
- what was her motivation to start a PhD, even after she went through a burnout

We finish up with Anahita telling you about how she helps PhD students with her group coaching program. Look her up on Instagram or Twitter (@phdanahita) and always feel free to comment or ask us anything :-).
