Dr Clíona Farrell - How to be okay facing the unknown

Dr Clíona Farrell, narrating her blog written for the Dementia Researcher website.

In this blog, Clíona explores the challenge of facing an uncertain future as her first postdoc contract nears its end. Choosing to take a career break for travel without a fixed plan in place, she reflects on her discomfort with uncertainty, the pressure of well-meaning questions from others, and the wider instability faced by early career researchers. While offering no tidy solutions, Clíona shares what’s helping her cope, and invites others to join the conversation about managing change and the unknown.
