It’s true though. Only I can approach my research with my lived experience and my passion. This doesn’t mean I’m not irreplaceable or I don’t have to work hard.

My research is important, and it’s important that I’m the one doing it.

Preparing for my event with PhD students at the University of Sydney next week.

Also printed these postcards from my art collaboration with some important reminders.

My message: Your mental health is more important than your thesis.
