In this workshop we will be discussing the processes and phases we usually go through when in moments of transition. This session is open for every stage of your research: whether you are just entering your PhD journey and having to adapt to a new ‘academic life’, whether you are heading towards its end and having to ‘let go’ and submit your thesis; or even if you are situated in that middle ‘in-between’ zone, which can feel disorientating at times. We will talk through what the process of transition usually entails, aim to normalise it by understanding how it manifests in our emotions (everyone goes through it!), and ultimately, find strategies to help us better deal with the particular stage we find ourselves in.
