    This chapter shares a personal journey; one that has hit lots of bumpy roads along the way. But in the words of singer-songwriter Florence Welch I have managed to "keep following the heartlines on my hand". It took ten years since gaining my Ph.D. to get a continuing role in academia - and I love it!

Becoming socialised into an academic profession is not easy but, as a reflective professional who can focus on positivity and confidence in oneself, it can be very fulfilling.
