Is this episode a post-defence therapy session? Is it offering grad school advice? Or is it two friends having a giggle? Whatever it is, I enjoyed recording this with Pooja ☺️
New episode!

How to survive grad school with Dr. Pooja Woosaree and Dr. Pamela Freeman. They recorded this episode in December 2024, shortly after both of their PhD defences. They recap the highs and the lows, the trials and the joys of graduate school.
