I'm running a writing retreat and encouraging participants to set realistic expectations. It will take x5 or x10 times longer than you expect. You will get half or less words than you expect. And it will take five times more effort than you expect.

Turn off your phone when you are trying to write. Better still, put it in the drawer or another room. We're not good at multi-tasking and writing is not a multi-tasking task. #acwri #phDchat #PhDforum #AcademicChatter #ECRchat

ART. This topic will help you to think about how art can help you to express how you feel. Here we focus particularly on art to promote relaxation. As Pablo Picasso once said: ‘Art washes away from the soul the dust of everyday life’. cpcs.online/home/art

It was an honour to present our research on menstruation and hormonal contraception in the ambulance environment amongst such amazing presentations at CAA Women in Leadership Symposium. #CAA #WomeninAmbulance #Womenin leadership #Women’sHealth #Advocacyforequity

@mhnparamedic @LauraCWirth Absolutely agree. It’s worth researching into and being able to cite this in the literature…this could be your next research project!

@LauraCWirth @Lisa_Hobbs_ Totally anecdotal but I also find that fertility problems are a lot higher in paramedic friends than nursing and non medical friends all of similar demographics.

Menstrual cycle disorders are 14.43% higher in paramedics than the Australian average. 29% of respondents used hormonal contraception to make it easier to work in the paramedic environment. Thank you @Lisa_Hobbs_ for contextualising working conditions. #ACPIC24

Thankful to be working with a great team of motivated researchers keen to make a difference. #endperiodstigma #endperiodpoverty #paramedicine linkedin.com/posts/lisahobb…
