Driven to Doctorate - An Interview with Dr. Alison Miller, PhD


Listen Later

Join Dr. Goodin as he interviews Dr. Alison Miller, owner of The Dissertation Coach. While earning her PhD in Clinical Psychology at the University of Illinois at Chicago, she worked to support the dignity among the homeless population. Find out how “The Dissertation Coach” business started as a temporary business but developed into a social media phenomenon and a thriving, growing business. Soon, Dr. Miller would offer coaching services and, later, consulting work. Her Academic Writer’s Space was catalyzed by the isolation of writers during the COVID-19 pandemic. Hear her talk about being deliberately present, taking a deep dive into the literature, being okay with “not knowing,” being mindful and planful, and finding balance and self-compassion. She reminds students that they own the dissertation and are responsible for the effort and the outcome. She says, “Everything that a student needs to do between the beginning and the end of the dissertation is a learnable component.” She encourages faculty to filter their feedback to leave people better than you found them.
