Solo Session: The Renaissance Bro Mindset For PhD Success

Feb 18, 2026 • S02 E20 • 00:03:51

Students and Graduates!

What if the best model for a resilient, fulfilling PhD is older than the lab coat? Do you consider yourself as a Renaissance Scholar when you produce knowledge towards PhD success?

In this Late-Night Solo Session, I combine the thoughts of current trend of the Renaissance Man or Woman as a useful frame to your PhD milestones through the following trifecta effect:

—> Curiosity about new knowledge

—> Proactivity in shaping your research and seek opportunities

—> Harmony with yourself and by valuing your closest ones

If this conversation helps you see your PhD with new clarity, share it with a fellow researcher so others can find PhD Lounge! What trait—curiosity, proactivity, or harmony—will you lean into this week?

Thank you all for tuning in, it has been a pleasure!
