[Monthly] January events + a fave reflection question

Dear Reader,

Welcome to my new monthly newsletter!

This once-a-month email will include anything new and noteworthy plus reminders about how we can work together (if we aren’t already).

To kick off the new year right, I’m hosting a Career Reflection & Goal Setting Workshop on Friday, 13 January. I’ll guide participants through a series of reflection questions.

This workshop is a member-only event, so if joining my PhD Career Clarity Program has been on your to-do list for a while, hop to it 😊.

Quick Reflection Exercise

“What do I need to do that I’m not already doing?”

Copy & paste that prompt into a Google doc (or however you like to reflect and freewrite) and give yourself a few minutes of uninterrupted time to see what you come up with in response. Then take what you write as motivation to schedule one or more meaningful action steps.

I’m also starting up a new series of free co-working sessions on Wednesday, 11 January. You are very welcome to join us! Scroll down to learn more.

Happy new year,

Jen

Jennifer Polk, PhD
