hey, I'm eniola, a 3rd yr phd student currently in a space of burnout while healing myself back to "healthy enough"

the role of supervisors is EVERYTHING in this journey. if I didn't have two people who were encouraging me & being gentle with me, I do NOT know how I'd survive this

Excited to share my new YouTube channel documenting my PhD journey as a Black academic! This channel creates breathing space to process the weight of living and researching while Black in academia. Second video dropped a couple days ago

When i meet people who i realise they are safe spaces for themselves, i immediately aware of how in not a safe space for myself. I’m not a safe space for myself YET, but we’re working towards that.

I yearn for relationships where having a fight consists of taking turns to listen to each others qualms.

I’ve been thinking a lot about what successful life looks like to me, I’m tempted by the materialistic displays of it but ultimately I want to spend the rest of my days being relationally and spiritually rich. I mean my research is in ✨identity and belonging✨

I want to spend my thirties in the hustle and bustle of the city, finish my PhD at 31 and build up a career that aligns with my ethics, do things that I never thought I’d do, but ultimately healing my nervous system

I feel like I’m seeing another wave of the spiritual survival strategy of ‘masking the African/Hoodoo spiritually behind the White western Christianity’ when ppl who are spiritual make refer to Jesus or the bible, I’m ‘okay I see you’ (I don’t think it’s intended to be revolutionary but it still is)

Reminder to self not pathologise all of your experiences. You are just humaning and that’s okay.

I’ve been reflecting what I want to release this full moon and a big theme that came up for me is self abandonment but more specifically, It’s manifestation through my mindlessness, my speed, my auto-pilot nature.

You cannot tell me relating as God as a black grandmother is the same as related to God as a white man

Is there a anthropological study in this yet???
