EPISODE 6: IT'S NOT ENOUGH

  • Summary

  • EPISODE 6: IT'S NOT ENOUGH

    In this episode, we jump to October 2012—about nine months into my postdoc. In this journal entry, I am reviewing my year so far and I'm judging my progress (or lack of progress) quite harshly. It feels pretty sad to relive moments like this, but I do manage to find some words of wisdom in the end.
