Lillian in equilibrium
Hi! I’m Lillian, a final year PhD Candidate in Biology at Harvard Medical School. My journey, in both professional spaces and in life, has taught me what it means to build a successful career and harmonious personal life.
I share targeted career development advice (from academia to beyond) for those who seek clarity beyond the noise of hustle culture. I care that you excel — however you define it — while being kind to yourself.
If your heart yearns for a space that marries empowerment with personal well-being, subscribe. Equilibrium is what it is all about.
