We're all snowed and iced in here at the farm after record-breaking temperature drops this week. That's okay, though. We're all cozied up and enjoying some much-needed down time. Happy holidays! ❄️🎄😊

You'd be surprised at how many people with PhDs start a business. In the course of running my subscription box, I've talked to 100s of other founders and several of them held PhDs in everything from biology to social policy. We're everywhere and still working to make a difference

My PR agency is drafting up a description for Earthlove as well as a short/long bio and my ten years in grad school amounts to basically one line as a point of interest 🙃 #postac #postaclife

After waiting seven months, I just got the long-awaited email from the US Patent and Trademark Office. I need to fix one small detail and then "Earthlove" is officially trademarked! 😀

Never underestimate the impact of offering words of appreciation or support. An email or text that takes a few minutes to write can change someone’s entire day.

Who says you can't teach outside academia? I'm currently drafting up lessons (and assignments) for my sub box subscribers as well as entire initiatives and curricula for large corporations about living more mindfully and sustainably. Corporate cog? Heck, no!

1. English, medieval literature 2. I left because I wanted to live a life of abundance rather than scarcity and had other projects I wanted to accomplish that are better suited to post-ac. 3. I am a writer, farmer/apiarist, and subscription box entrepreneur 4. Heck ya!

I've been enjoying @danielleSCProf's fantastic podcast "Self Compassionate Professor" and it's been inspiring to hear stories from people who have left academia to create meaningful, fulfilling careers. If you're feeling stuck/unhappy, give it a listen! #AcademicChatter #phdlife

Running Roostervane has introduced me to a lot of graduates who are running businesses. Some of our skills translate well into entrepreneurship, others are massive hurdles. Entrepreneurship isn't easy. For some of us, it's in our blood. @AcademicChatter roostervane.com/grad-school-en…
