Are you navigating a STEM career filled with uncertainty, job search stress, and the pressure to “have it all figured out”? In this solo episode, I share how I’m applying mindset strategies I’ve learned from this month’s guests — so you can build confidence, resilience, and professional momentum in your own STEM journey.

This episode is packed with actionable tips for early-career scientists, international students, biotech professionals, and anyone feeling stuck or burned out in the STEM world. Whether you’re building your network on LinkedIn, recovering from a layoff, or just trying to stay motivated — this episode gives you the tools to shift from survival mode to career growth.

You’ll learn how to:
