In this podcast, I walk through the process of overcoming what in academic circles we call, “ABD” or All But Dissertation - that period of one’s academic career that feels like no man’s land, because you’re virtually graduated, except for this research paper.  This also applies to those pursuing a master’s degree but are stuck on their thesis paper.

7 Steps to get unstuck:

Step 1: Acknowledge the emotional and psychological barrier

Step 2: Assess your current status (for graduate program and paper)

Step 3: Find support group or peer

Step 4: Reach out to committee chairperson

Step 5: Working on your dissertation

Step 6: Oral defense

Step 7: Buy me a coffee When you’re done!
