CHATTY PHD VLOG: my academic website, dissertation chapter feedback, & unexpected events

[@KatieIbsen]

Seeing the revision process is something I’ve really enjoyed about your vlogs, thank you for sharing it with us!!

[@SarahFischerVlogs]

It feels so vulnerable to share but also so important! ❤

Watching this vlog inspired me to write a real to-do list for the coming month, and not just cross my fingers that I would get to the things that are important for me. Thanks for showing us the nitty-gritty of managing your process and thinking!

Honestly so rude that our bodies percieve unopened feedback as a bodily threat! Glad that your advisor continues to be in your loudest champions, and I'm so excited for you to finish this chapter up!

[@SarahFischerVlogs]

Thank you so much 😭🥹🩷

Around 21:59 you bring up a great point about the idea of an intellectual community and I am glad this platform is able to give you that especially after COVID I feel like the community that was once there in a general sense is more so lacking now

[@emigonzalez9765]

Yes! That was such a special moment in the video!

[@SarahFischerVlogs]

I have so many thoughts about how TikTok especially has changed the notion of community on social media! I’m sure the pandemic has played an enormous role too. But grateful for the one I have here ❤

What a wonderful Vlog!! I am so impressed and inspired by your work in progress website! I also have a website for professionalization but you gave me some good ideas and inspiration for other tabs that I can include (for my teaching experience). I hope we get to see the finished product! I also really loved the song choices, especially the one with the lyric "… Will it ever be enough…" I think that is the mantra for every PhD candidate working on their dissertation! Lastly, it was so relatable "Waiting with you" to get feedback from your advisor, feeling "in limbo," and then applying his feedback via notes on what you're going to do next. Really loved this one!

[@SarahFischerVlogs]

Thank you so much! ❤ will def share the finish product of the website!

WAIT! So Rita's is NOT a thing everywhere?! It's a northeast STAPLE! WELCOME!! I wish I could taste its gloriousness for the first time again! Also, I love how you balance your dissertation work with self-care--something I'm terrible at! Taking notes!

[@SarahFischerVlogs]

My life has been CHANGED by Rita’s!!!

I love seeing your site! I also used google sites for mine, I've been slowly shaping it over the past few years. If it would be helpful to see it I'd be happy to share it with you! On another note, being late to a meeting even by a couple minutes stresses me out so so so so bad, even though my advisor is chronically late herself! haha Also congrats on the positive feedback on how close you are on that chapter!

[@SarahFischerVlogs]

Thank you so much! I always love checking out other sites! Feel free to email it to me @ [e-mail] 🥰

[@jessieclay2085]

Sarah! I would love a link to your google site for some inspiration!

I think moments of reflection in the dissertation are super important. For me, I try to connect it back to my why. Why me? Why this research?

[@SarahFischerVlogs]

Yes! So simple but so important. Working on building those moments in the revision process ❤
