When you’re doing PhD research, the challenges you encounter are often complex, ambiguous, and can feel unwieldy. That is part of the learning. A PhD is in part a degree in managing complexity and ambiguity. Your PhD experience should be equipping you to wield the unwieldy.

Big career decisions don’t come with a map, but all you need is a compass. The right next move is the one that brings you a step closer to living your core values. In an unpredictable world, you can’t make a master plan. You can only gauge whether you’re on a meaningful path.
