Ep.120 How to Feel Less Alone in Your Studies and Find Support in Other Students

#120 –  Studying online or as a mature student can feel pretty isolating at times, right? Well it’s time to feel less alone in your studies. In this episode we’re going to be talking about community. First, the benefits to your learning and confidence of finding and being a part of a supportive group of peers. Next, I want to walk you through the common problems I’ve experienced and my clients have experienced in existing studying communities. While there are some wonderful, inspiring groups out there…there are also some negative, unhelpful spaces. Finally, I’m going to share with you how to find an awesome studying community to be a part of so you can reap the benefits of hanging out with likeminded peers going through the same rollercoaster as you.   To get the links and shownotes for this episode, head to: https://chloeburroughs.com/episode120.
