Hi there, I'm new to posting too. Congratulations on reaching the end of your PhD and also on the postdoc grant! The fact that you have achieved this shows that you are more than capable to pursue an academic career, if it's what you really want to do. I am also just about to finish my PhD and am similarly wondering whether the academic career path is worth it...I can't offer much in the way of advice but just wanted to say that I relate to your post and have similarly felt these doubts and concerns. For me the thought of pursuing a career outside of academia is becoming increasingly appealing! Good luck for your viva in May.
