It’s never too late! If you don’t know my journey, I was a teen mom, and decided when my son got older to go back and get my dream Doctorate of Psychology degree! As an older adult student, I understand what I am truly passionate about and enjoy the journey so much more than I would have in my early 20s! If you need a sign to go back to school…this is it! #college #psychologystudent #psyd

highly recommend doing a 10 month program straight out of college 🎓 #pov #college #masters #educated

Spent the last 9 months quietly completing an unexpected side quest…sorry for lying to you pookies. But we’re officially done now :)

Guess the job market isn't looking so good after all. This is how I felt when I thought I wouldn't find a job after getting my Masters Degree in Biology. Even after 2 years of doing research in the Everglades, publishing a paper and gaining the necessary skills as a scientist, I didn't land positions I interviewed for. Luckily I was able to find one as soon as I graduated. #mastersdegree #gradschool #postgrad #stem

and just like that, it’s come n gone 💃🏻 #gradschool

My master’s degree didn’t break me enough… so I chose a PhD. When I started my master’s program, I thought late nights, research papers, presentations, and academic pressure were the hardest things I would ever face. Graduate school tested my discipline, my resilience, and my confidence as a woman navigating higher education far from home. But somewhere between writing research drafts, defending ideas in seminars, and learning statistical methods, I realized something — I wasn’t breaking. I was building. So I chose the harder path. I chose a PhD. I chose a dissertation. I chose long-term research. I chose academic growth over comfort. This is what the PhD journey looks like for women in STEM. This is doctoral student life. This is grad school reality. This is the international student experience. This is women in academia choosing ambition again and again. Some degrees test you. Some degrees transform you. And for me, higher education isn’t just a title — it’s purpose, research, discipline, and becoming the woman I once prayed to be. 🕊️🧕🏻 study abroad, international student, PhD journey, master’s abroad, student life in the USA, academic journey, research life, women in education, chasing dreams, growth phase, learning and growing, Keywords, becoming her, student journey, work, goals, memories, PhD life, PhD student, study, grad life, master’s abroad, study abroad life, international student journey, academic goals, growth, mindset, resilience, becoming her, dream life, that girl, studying, hard work, women in stem, university, grad school, #studystudystudy #phdlife #studyroutine #gradstudent #usa

Graduation is honestly so… bittersweet. 🥹 You’ve been working your whole degree for this moment. You feel so proud and celebratory. But all of a sudden, your identity changes. I feel (or I, felt??) so safe behind the bubbled identity of “student”. “What do you do?” “Oh, I’m a student.” No one questions you. There’s no expectation to know what you’re doing with your life. Learning is your full time job, and it’s respected. You can find such solace in working towards your lil deadlines !! You can find such joy in a community bonded with the same label. And without it, the world seems so vast and open and wide. I’m excited to navigate my new identities beyond formal education for a while. 🌷🦋✨💐🍀🌻 I know there will still be a lot of learning. Just maybe with a few less deadlines. <33

I promise it’s worth it🎓👩🏼‍🎓✨ #gradschool #student #phd
