In this episode of the Grad School Femtoring Podcast, I walk you through how to identify your advisor needs as a graduate student, whether you are choosing an advisor in your first year or realizing you need to make a change. This episode is inspired by patterns I see across my clients, where many students feel pressure to settle for less support than they need due to what has been normalized in academia. I break down what it actually looks like to be supported in graduate school by outlining both foundational advisor needs and additional forms of support that can strengthen your experience and long-term career trajectory. I also share how these needs directly impact your ability to make progress, maintain momentum, and complete your program.
