Welcome to Season 4 of Papa PhD!
To kick of this new season, I have the great pleasure of bringing you my recent conversation with someone I’ve been looking up to since before the launch of the podcast, someone who has been hard at work to help PhDs figure out their careers for a long time – Jen Polk or From PhD to Life!
Join us on this conversation about a question many of you may have asked yourselves already: is leaving academia tantamount to being a sellout?
