Welcome to my PhD blog
Worried you're doing your PhD all wrong and someone's about to find out? You're in the right place. 😂
In this blog, I cover all the stuff you might need help with. Like writing your literature review, doing your qualitative data analysis, developing your discussion chapter, and trying not to go completely bonkerpants in the process.
I'll help you work out HOW to do all those things everyone keeps telling you to do.
Expect practical PhD advice, based on the unspoken truth that nobody's PhD is nearly as neat as their finished thesis makes it look.

What does Degree Doctor sell? PhD Survival Guides, Books and Momentum Community explained
If you've found your way to Degree Doctor through my blog, YouTube channel or social media, you might be wondering what I actually DO here. Apart from talking about the various ways a PhD can drive an otherwise perfectly reasonable adult human being completely bonkerpants, that is. 😂 I also make things that people can buy. Because, well, I have bills to pay and a cat who expects a certain standard of living.
I’m guessing you’re here because you’ve chosen to do a qualitative study for your PhD but things have started to feel a bit… slippery. You like how qualitative approaches value people’s lived experiences and you’re researching something you genuinely care about so that’s why you felt drawn to it. However, recently you seem to have unlocked a whole new level of confusing and it’s all gone a bit Alice in Wonderland.
