Welcome to Grounded Theory Unbound, a podcast about all things grounded theory.

This podcast is hosted by the ARU Grounded Theory Network and the Veterans and Families Institute for Military Social Research at Anglia Ruskin University.

In this episode, I have invited Dr Hilary Engward to talk about her journey into Grounded Theory. Hilary is an associate professor in applied social science, and deputy director of the Veterans and Families Institute for Military Social Research at Anglia Ruskin University. She makes a regular appearance on the podcast, so I felt it would be helpful if we got to know her a bit better. Hilary is a seasoned grounded theorist, but as with every researcher, at one point had to make those first tentative steps into her grounded theory journey.

I really enjoyed listening to Hilary’s story, and I am sure you will too.
