Ep. 120: Developing Your Wellness Plan
In this week’s episode I give an overview of Léa’s workshop, ‘Embodying Wellness: Mind, Body and Finding a good therapist.” Swe shares some amazing strategies for not only taking care of yourself mentally and physically—she explores the concept of digital wellness. Listen for a quick recap of all the goodies she shares like writing prompts, inclusive mental healthcare, and strategies for finding a therapist for your needs.

If you are in a research-based graduate program you have almost no structure in most cases. you select your classes, you shape your research agenda, you dictate the pace of your progress in your program besides a few, large spread out milestones (think Master's thesis, qualifying exam, dissertation defense). This in itself can be very overwhelming.
