Hiya team! How you can get the most out of this community
This space works best when you run the conversation. My role is to guide, support, and unblock you – not to broadcast at you. Here’s how to make the most of it.
1. Start the conversations you wish existed
  • Post your questions, challenges, and wins – even if they feel “small”
  • If you’re stuck (paper, career, project, idea), share context + a specific question
  • Think: “If someone else posted this, would it help me?” – if yes, hit post
2. Use my time intentionally
You can access me best by:
  • Posting in the feed with a clear title and tag (e.g. “Publishing help”, “Career decision")
  • Tagging me when you want direct feedback or a second brain on something
  • Bringing concrete things: draft abstracts, LinkedIn posts, reviewer responses, research ideas, career decisions
The clearer your ask, the more value I can give in less time.
3. Help each other (this is huge)
  • Reply to at least one post per week – even with a short thought or question
  • Share what has worked for you, not just what you’re struggling with
  • Treat this as a “lab group without borders”: we all get better when we think together
If you only consume, you’ll learn something; if you contribute, you’ll learn much more.That's why I do this community!
4. Share your progress publicly
  • Post quick updates: “Today I…”, “This week I…”, “I finally…”
  • Celebrate small wins (finished a draft, submitted a paper, survived a review, posted on LinkedIn)
  • Reflect briefly: “What I learned from this…” – this helps others and cements your own learning
5. Simple norms to keep this valuable
  • Be specific, be kind, be honest
  • No “perfect posts” needed – rough and real is fine
  • Assume everyone here is busy and trying – respond the way you’d want others to respond to you
If you’re not sure what to post first, try this:
“Here’s where I am right now + the one thing I’m stuck on + the one thing I want from this community.”
What’s one post you could make today that would immediately make this community more useful for you and for someone else?
