The Student Life Cycle
Mental health check: Fear of Failure, Anxieties, Insecurities, and Post-Corona with Monique Berends & Doortje Veltman
This time Yulian is joined by Monique Berends and Doortje Veltman, trainer and psychologist at the UG's Student Service Center respectively. They've come together to discuss some common struggles students face - fear of failure (and perfectionism), anxieties and insecurities (such as choice anxiety), and post-corona studying.
Although this title suggests a jam-packed episode, we'd say it's very laid-back and easy to listen to. Tune in to see what Monique and Doortje have to say from their professional experience working with students, in-depth explanations of the issues discussed, and possible solutions.
