Your work does not define your worth.
A career is what you doโit doesnโt have to reflect who you are. Making a job part of your identity is an option, not an obligation.
Your impact in the world doesnโt depend on how you make a living. It derives from how you live your values.

The Book of Genesis tells us that the Lord entrusted human beings with the responsibility of being stewards of creation (Gen 2:15). Care for the Earth, then, is a moral obligation for all men and women as children of God. #EarthDay@EarthDay
It was fantastic to see many of our @EPSRC @WISECDT graduates and students at the celebration event. Proposals developed in response to the industrial challenges show the excellence of our colleagues and great impact that the CDT has created.
Todayโs unintentional experiment: how many different ways can you break a turbine? Good job I had my trusty lab assistant guarding the emergency stop button & helping me measure flow velocity! ๐๐ฆโ๏ธ๐ง๐ฉโ๐ง #FlumeFriday#MarineRenewableEnergy#LabLife
I've written a book. I don't think it will be a best seller anytime soon but it does mean you can call me Dr Leech as on Monday I passed my #Viva with minor corrections! #PhDLife
On the eve of International Women's Day we've got some stats for #MEW2023 on gender representation:

Come learn how to #BreakTheBias?
