180: Six Ways to Overcome Dissertation Writing Anxiety


Listen Later

In this solo episode, I cover the topic of how to overcome dissertation writing anxiety. Writing anxiety refers to the feelings of fear, stress, and/or uncertainty you may feel when engaging in some sort of writing, especially academic writing. This episode discusses six common obstacles that can get in the way of you making progress in your writing and can also contribute to writing anxiety. They include: procrastination, lack of motivation, time management, struggling with the research process, struggling with addressing feedback, and dealing with imposter syndrome. I also offer several strategies to overcome these obstacles.
