125: What Pre-Tenure Should Feel Like [Re-Release Ep 84]

What does the early career, pre-tenure period usually feel like for academic womxn? What should it feel like? With intention, we can steer ourselves toward a better experience.  The early career period of proving yourself to gain that stamp of approval, whether you call it permanence or tenure, is a pivotal time in our careers. What does this pre-tenure period often feel like? What should it feel like? And perhaps most importantly, what do you believe it can be like for you? In this new summer season, we will be re-releasing a few older podcasts to start us off. With that said, this episode is a re-release of episode 84 of the podcast.  For the show notes visit cathymazak.com/episode125.   But, we do want to make you aware of some fun things happening currently in the summer of 2022!
