Welcome to Post-Grad Girl: the place for everything life - after the degree.

Whether you’ve traded your cap and gown for corporate chic or you’re still figuring out your next move,

this is your space. Post-Grad Girl is about navigating life beyond the degree—career wins, social struggles,

personal glow-ups—and we’re cutting out all the bullshit.

So… You’ve Graduated. Now What?

Let’s talk about that awkward, in-between phase when everyone’s asking, “What’s next?” and you don’t really have an answer yet. Spoiler alert: You’re not alone. And let’s clear something up right now—there’s no “one right path.”

If you’re that ambitious girly who thrived in the chaos of school, only to find yourself staring down the monotony of work, home, repeat, don’t panic:

  1. We get it. We hate it too.

  2. This is exactly why we created Post-Grad Girl.

The Truth About Transitioning

Here’s the tea: transitional phases are meant to feel uncomfortable, awkward, and, yes, downright shitty at times. The worst part? Living in a world where everyone’s curated online life looks picture-perfect—even when they’re posting their “crisis” tears. (Let’s be real, it’s all about the aesthetic cry for some of these people.)

But here’s your reminder, babe: this shit is NOT a race.

The best-kept secret to beating comparison? Don’t even participate in it.

You’re exactly where you’re supposed to be. TRUST THAT.

You’re in the middle of learning and growing in ways you probably don’t even realize yet because you’re so focused on where you think you should be. But what if you shifted your mindset to appreciate where you could be if you gave yourself the space to evolve?

The Mindset Shift You Need

Listen, we know what you’re thinking: “Bitch, easier said than done.” And you’re right—it’s not easy. But seriously, stop doom-scrolling for a minute and turn those critical thinking skills inward. You’d be shocked at the difference it makes.

In fact, that’s the exact mindset shift that helped us create Post-Grad Girl. Once you focus less on what you’re “supposed to” do and more on what you could create, grow, or experience, the possibilities open up.

Celebrate the Little Wins

Here’s another pro tip: celebrate the hell out of the small wins.

When you hype yourself up for completing even the tiniest tasks, you build momentum. Those small moments snowball into bigger changes, and suddenly, getting up and taking on the day feels a little less daunting.

(Also, fun fact: That’s how these girlies on TikTok make their lives look so damn aesthetic. They celebrate every little thing like it’s a big deal—and it works.)

Your Reminder

This transition phase is hard, but you’re not alone in it. Celebrate yourself. Trust your journey. And remember: you’re exactly where you’re supposed to be, and Post-Grad Girl is here to remind you of that every step of the way.

That's all we got for now, see u on our next read cutie! Muahhhhh <3
