In this episode, Rose interviews Alison Cox, curator of @phdbalance, an Instagram feed about staying happy + healthy while pursuing higher education.

Alison is a full-time graduate student at Michigan State University, where she studies criminal justice. Outside of the ivory tower, she is a fitness instructor and volunteers at the local Garden House in her community. She loves to read, cook, listen to music and go on road trips.

In this episode, Rose and Alison discuss social media detoxing (and why you may want to do it in the first place!), becoming more self-aware and spiritual as well as how to stay on point when life seems overwhelming.
