Dr Jodi Watt - This Is Not a Goodbye Post (Except It Is, Sort Of)

Dr Jodi Watt, narrating a new blog they wrote for the Dementia Researcher website.

In Jodi's final post for Dementia Researcher, they share reflections on moving to a new role after years of writing about the realities of academic life. Jodi looks back on the value of open conversations about uncertainty and community, and offers words of encouragement to others navigating job precarity. With honesty and warmth, Jodi closes this chapter while celebrating the generosity and shared humanity that make research worth doing.
