Welcome back! We're picking up where we left off last week: Manta Rays in Mozambique. We're chatting a lot about the non-linear path to becoming a marine scientists, all of the barriers and challenges in science academia, and accepting imposter syndrome. We also dive deep into Nakia's foundation: MAR Expeditions. How she relies on volunteers to help her in the field, and the exciting things she sees in the ocean. If you haven't caught up on the past two episodes and want to know more about manta rays, head on back to episodes 30 and 31 to get an intro!
