Grant rejection sucks — and it’s more common than people admit.

What matters is what you do next.

Budgeting for a grant can feel more confusing than the research proposal sometimes 💸

If you're staring at cells, formulas, and estimates wondering if it makes sense — you're definitely not alone.

So what actually makes a grant stand out to reviewers? Hint: It’s less about sounding “smart” and more about being clear.

Rest doesn’t mean you’re falling behind.

The idea that you have to grind 24/7 for a PhD? It’s outdated.

This post is a little reminder to pace yourself — and if you need help finding that balance, I offer coaching too 💬

Burnout during a PhD isn’t rare — but that doesn’t make it any easier to deal with.
You don’t have to wait until you’re completely drained. This post might help shift the pace.

Constant grind culture in academia isn’t the badge of honour it’s made out to be.

You don’t need to be working around the clock to do meaningful work.

Let’s normalise sustainable research habits ✨

Need funding but overwhelmed by long timelines and paperwork?

Small grants might be the quick win you need to move forward 🚀

It’s not uncommon to lose clarity or confidence in your research focus, especially as things evolve. If your topic isn’t sitting right anymore, it’s worth checking in with yourself.

Motivation isn’t always about discipline or drive. Sometimes it’s about perspective.

This mindset shift helped me reset—sharing in case it helps you too.

It’s amazing what a break can do for you! Going on secondment was the best decision I made professionally and personally!

Can’t wait to share more about my secondment in Nigeria!

Not all rejected grants are bad ideas—sometimes it’s the small things that make the biggest difference.

This post highlights common mistakes that trip up even great proposals.

The best time to start your thesis? Before you think you’re ready.

Getting started early helps you get unstuck and gain momentum.
