    Super helpful!
    I greatly enjoy these podcasts. The range of topics and discussions are very helpful for academics and others involving in writing for scholarly and related outlets. I listen to these on the way to work and feel inspired to be more productive.

    Practical and well-organized!
    Love Dr. Katie Linder’s work here! She gives clear, organized advice for academics and scholars who are building their careers. Appreciate her transparency in her own journey. She doesn't have to do that but it offers such a breath of fresh air to the what can be a cut-throat industry!

    Timely and Inspiring
    Katie not only gives well-thought-out advice that she has thoroughly researched but her delivery is conversational and inviting. I feel like I am having tea by her fireplace, and I am often inspired after the podcast is over.
  • Jenny.bean132
    We got this!!
    Katie never fails to present information that is useful and timely. Her insights and suggestions have proven invaluable in developing my professional academic life. As a PhD candidate, Katie’s advice have helped me before I even knew I needed help!
  • kjcannon
    Enjoyable, informative, and just good stuff for academics!
    A colleague turned me on to Katie Linder's work, and I'm forever grateful. I truly enjoy Katie's style and information - I feel as if I'm getting updates from a friend and colleauge I know well, who is honest with me and herself about struggles, and who tackles questions that matter working in higher ed. Surprisingly to me, I also enjoy that Katie keeps her podcasts on the shorter side; I usually prefer podcasts between 30 and 60 minutes long. But the great thing about the shorter episodes is I can "stack" them if I've got a long way to drive, or fit in one or two as I'm running around town doing errands in shorter spurts. Haven't tried listening at the office yet, though I am planning to try listening as quick mental breaks in the afternoons when I seem to lag in productivity. I particularly enjoy Katie's discussion of writing as part of the role of an academic and as an interest/passion of hers. Katie, I feel like you are right in my head with the content you cover and struggles you have! Keep up the great work - I really appreciate what you do!
  • Laura Pasquini
    Thanks for the Pro-Tips for Higher Ed Colleagues
    I appreciate the topics and Q&A podcasts offered by Katie on a regular basis. She offers a number of practical tips & tricks to manage scholarly work and manage work-life balance for administration/research peers in higher education. The format is digestible and timely, as she provides insights on topics, such as preparing for a conference and considerations your side hustle project(s). Another plus, there are show notes and downloadable transcripts that supplement this fantastic audio professional development resource. Thanks!
