[@umairmasood9071]

My weekends are incomplete without your vlogs. And Sarah, your excitement is very infectious. I got excited because of watching you get excited. I hope that you get all the jobs and then you get to choose where you want to go. Love from Pakistan.

[@tdiemond2806]

I am hoping to apply to and be accepted to a PhD program in English for next Fall! Any tips for first time applicants? I feel like I have been struggling here!

[@SarahFischerVlogs]

I have a couple videos that you might find useful, especially my video on writing personal statements! Check out my “grad school chats” playlist ❤ General advice: be specific! with what you want to study, who you want to work with, and why you and the grad school with mutually benefit from your enrollment!

Do you ever experience imposter syndrome? If so, do you have any tips for how to deal with it? I feel like working in academia and teaching can foster imposter syndrome and mine has been so bad lately!

[@SarahFischerVlogs]

Omg only every single day 😅 I once heard that the only people who don’t experience it are the people who SHOULD be experiencing it and I’ve latched on to that-if I’m feeling like an impostor, I’m in good company ❤ It also helps to be honest about it with friends and mentors and let them hype me up! It was really hard when I first started teaching, but it does get a bit better with time

[@shaffroncity]

​@SarahFischerVlogs Yessss I love that thank you!! I'm going to latch onto that too ❤

[@Herbalhealthsupplements]

7th year???? Girl, no wonder struggle has so many g’s 🙄

[@SarahFischerVlogs]

7 years is actually below the average length of time for combined MA/PhD’s in my field 😅

[@Herbalhealthsupplements]

@ in that case… congratulations ❤️
