This issue was a tough one to publish, but I need you to know: If you're struggling in #academia, you are not alone. 🫶

Please share with anyone who needs to hear this.

I quit academia and I don't regret it at all.
In the post I am sharing why I am happier and feel like I am doing more for the scientific community outside of academia.
