A clearer path through your PhD.
Qualitative PhDs are messy. Your support system doesn’t have to be.
If this feels harder than it should, that doesn’t mean you’re doing it wrong. It usually means no one ever showed you the thinking behind the chapters.
I’m Dr Elizabeth Yardley. After 20 years supporting PhD researchers, I created the PhD Survival Guides to bring structure to the most confusing stages of the doctorate - and help you move forward with clarity and confidence.
Each guide focuses on one major stage of the PhD and breaks it into usable, sequenced steps that you can take at your own pace.
