My past few weeks were @psychscience.bsky.social in Barcelona, @improvingpsych.org in DC, and examining @aliciafrancomnez.bsky.social's amazing PhD thesis, followed by some much needed relaxation camping and hiking in northern Portugal. Feeling lucky and hopeful about the future of psychology! 🤞✨

That smile says it all! Was great to present some of the data from the Dignity Honor Face @psysciacc.bsky.social project at #APS26BCN! As far as I know, this is PSA's largest data collection to date and its first scale development study! Exciting all round 🤩 Many thanks to our 400+ coauthors!

Apart from our main project, the restful space of the retreat allowed the space for creativity, leading to so many super interesting and useful conversations and the beginnings of collaborations. I think this photo perfectly summarises what it was like to be in this space #OSR26UK

Had the most beautiful, chaotic, fun, inspiring, & rejuvenating time at the Open Science Retreat at the Center for Alternative Technology in Wales this week 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿✨ My group created a map of Opentopia inspired by some of the different ways that people come to find and become interested in open science 🤍

Day 5: Patterdale to Grasmere 7 miles, 2000ft elevation] Did the walk we were meant to do the day before but backwards. Was very glad to have not missed it out completely. Stomach was hurting some of the day but otherwise the walk felt easy peasy! Rainy but happy last day walking, then train home.

Day 3: Rosthwaite to Grasmere [7 miles, 2000ft elevation] Started the day feeling really weak and nauseous. Was much slower and needed more breaks. Had a moment at the top of Eagle Crag where I thought I was going to faint and had to lie down. Vomited & fever when we got to the hostel.

Day 2: Ennerdale Bridge to Rosthwaite [15 miles, 2300ft elevation] Even more rainy than Day 1, but I was still having a great time. My favourite bit was this flat walk around the beautiful Ennerdale Water. Hoped for a rest at YHA Black Sail but it wasn’t open, so persevered in the pouring rain.

Day 1: St Bees to Ennerdale Bridge [14 miles, 2400ft elevation] Was very rainy but I was happy and proud of myself for walking longer than l'd ever walked in one day while also carrying a heavy (for me) backpack. Hadn’t quite figured out the right straps combination yet so had some back pain.

C2C part 1 done ✅ St Bees to Patterdale [43 miles, 4 days walking] This was my first ever multi day hike! It was hard but so fun. Previous to this I’d never hiked for more than 5 hours in a day. I got so much braver as the days went on, with some light scrambling and lots of scary river crossings.

Is this background and insect shirt combo good clashy or bad clashy? 😂

Yesterday I spent the day with my friend and her two kids (6 and 7yo)... Kid 1: Why do you have a beard? Me: Some people who look like women have beards! Kid 2: Are you a girl or a boy? Me: I'm kind of inbetween! Kids: OK! Kid 1 *makes a mud painting of me on a leaf, making sure to add the beard*
