#GRADBOSS

Grad school doesn't have to mean burnout, isolation, and constant stress. In #GRADBOSS: A Grad School Survival Guide, Dr. Toyin Alli, Math PhD and founder of The Academic Society, shares the proven strategies she used to not only finish her doctorate but also build a joyful and balanced life along the way.

Drawing from her own experiences as a PhD student, as well as insights from graduate students across disciplines, Dr. Alli provides practical guidance for navigating coursework, research, and the often-overlooked challenges of time management, impostor syndrome, and self-care. The book introduces the #GRADBOSS identity: a grad student who takes ownership of their journey, builds community, and creates balance without sacrificing ambition.
