🎙️ EPISODE 7: "Life Is... Radio Silent"
✨ Featuring special guest Dr. Jeremy Divinity
You ever graduate with a doctorate and suddenly feel like the Wi-Fi went out on your future plans? Yeah—same.
In this episode of The Safe Space, I’m joined by the brilliant Dr. Jeremy Divinity to unpack what life really looks like after the cap and gown come off. From the eerie silence of job rejection emails to the mental toll of being a Black man with a doctorate in a world that doesn’t always know what to do with you—we’re talking all of it.
We get real about:
🎓 Post-grad depression and the "ghetto" of adulting
📉 Why 50% of doctoral students drop out (and how we made it)
đź§ The invisible weight Black men carry in academia
đź’° The wild trade-off between education and financial stability
🔥 And yeah—we ask the question: Is higher ed a scam?
Dr. Divinity drops gems on Black fugitive spaces, radical love, and why healing is not just personal—it's political.
This one’s for the overqualified, underpaid, and radio silent.
Tap in. Let’s break the silence together.
