The 2nd week of January Jumpstart is here with a special crossover episode with tbguniversity! Join us as we sit down with Melissa Ifill to unpack why so many Black women feel the pull toward graduate school—and whether that urge is truly serving us. Melissa reminds us that returning to school for an advanced degree requires “a different set of skills and a different sense of awareness” because “most of us are older and our brains are going through what they’re going through.” Going back isn’t the same as it was the last time—and that’s exactly why we need to examine our “why.” Are you pursuing an advanced degree for you, or for the expectations others have placed on you? Let’s rethink it together. Listen now wherever you get your podcasts. #TherapyForBlackGirls #TBGU #JanuaryJumpstart #Metamorphosis #GradSchool BlackWomen SelfReflection Podcast
