Welcome to the PhD Survival Guide Podcast! In this episode, we talk with Abigail, a political sciences PhD student from Canada about what it is like to do a PhD as a mother. Please help me in introducing Abigail! We talk about what some of the challenges of being a mother in a PhD entails such as figuring out maternity leave, organization/time management, and imposter syndrome. We also dive into how Abigail makes time for herself and maintains a healthy balance of PhD/home/self-care. This is an incredible episode chatting with a very talented PhD student. As always, we hope you enjoy the episode!
