•
Episode 21
Do you ever feel like your work is either brilliant or worthless? That you're either thriving… or totally failing? You're not alone. In this episode, we explore the sneaky but powerful force of all-or-nothing thinking — a common trap in academic life that fuels burnout, blocks creativity, and keeps us stuck. I’ll discuss how to move beyond black-and-white thinking and embrace the spectrum where true growth happens. This episode is your invitation to see your work — and yourself — with more nuance, compassion, and perspective.
