  • Wobble month: finding your balance and keeping momentum
    Dec 18 2025

    As you settle into your studies, research tells us that this can be a time when many students start to feel the “wobble” - that first dip in energy, motivation, or confidence. In this wellbeing-focused episode, Student Wellbeing Manager Natalie is joined by Student Ambassador Ayra (MSc Cyber Security) to talk about what it really means to find your balance during this transition period and how to stay steady when things get tough.
