WHO WE ARE
Sisters Scholars was founded by Dr. Jessye Talley and Dr. Orissa Massey in 2018. Dr. Talley and Dr. Massey both sisters graduated with their doctoral degrees in May 2016 in Industrial and Systems Engineering and Social Work respectively. Sisters Scholars was birthed to put a spotlight on the mental stress and trauma that often occurs during the pursuit of the doctoral degree in order to provide support to current PhD Students.
EVENTS/SERVICES
Sisters Scholars provides the following events and services. Each year we hold our annual PhD Wellness Retreat. We also provide one-on-one and group coaching. Throughout the year hold other events based on the needs of our students. These events provide opportunities to network and provide community.
PHD WELLNESS RETREAT
Self-care for PhD Students
The retreat provides support and self-care technique using a holistic approach to wellness. This in turn provides a better doctoral process for students.
DISSERTATION COACHING
Helping you to the Phinishline
We provide one-on-one or group coaching for PhD students from working through the writing process to processing through feelings that might prevent productivity. Contact us today for a free 20min consulation.
NETWORKING EVENTS
Community
Throughout the year based on student feedback we will host different events to keep the Sisters Scholars Community together beyond the PhD Wellness Retreat.
" We are dedicated to supporting the future researchers and game changers so that they can finish their respective doctoral programs."
Dr. Talley and Dr. Massey
