#WomenInSTEM Academic Mom, PhD
My husband works Leeds University Union so weโre entitled to salary sacrifice on nursery fees. Itโs been 10mnths & we are STILL waiting on HR. This has cost us ยฃ1100+ in fees. During a cost of living crisis, employers should be doing everything they can to support employees. #Momademia
Finally here is my PhD thesis in the physical form !!
Thanks to everyone who walked with me in this journey ๐Feelings blessed #blessed #momademia #Phd #PhDchatter
Absolutely! The PhD teaches you how to fail and don't 'die' while happen. Just breath, do something else and start again with a new sight of it #PhDGoals #PhDResearch Academic Chatterโข Sociedad de Doctores e Investigadores de Colombia Academic Mom, PhD Asociaciรณn Colombiana de Periodismo cientรญfico

In the last 2 weeks, I successfully defended my dissertation, started my 6 month on solids, and potty trained my 2.5 year old. Iโm officially Dr. Mama. Bad ass. 1st gen college student. Stanford/Harvard alum. Sociologist. Asbury-Kimmelโ๐พ๐๐พโโ๏ธ #PhDone #socaf Academic Mom, PhD
An absolute new career highlight:
Got to give a lesson on the heart to pre-k kids at my toddlerโs classroom.
Proud Academic Mom, PhD moment and real gratitude that I get to share a little bit of what I heart with my daughter.
Parental leave today as the sprog is sick. The absurdity of being a parent doing a PhD is that you canโt log any parental leave you have to take. Itโs just knocked off your remaining time just like everything else. #AcademicChatter #Momademia
So glad to see this article in nature ๐
Moms go above and beyond to travel for work when their kids are small. I'm beyond those years now, but still sometimes get asked 'why I didn't bring my kids' to a meeting (don't ask women that pls).
