A PhD graduate shouldn't feel guilty about doing nothing after finishing. The speaker says the degree transforms you so completely that you need time to figure out who you are now, not rush into the next thing.
Yeah, you get all done, and yeah, you shouldn't feel guilty about doing nothing or next to nothing. However, what I find most people get to this point is saying, "Wow, I feel lost. I should be doing something. I've got to do a lot of different things because I've been doing a lot of different things for the last X years." I like the "free at last" statement and take some time to rest and figure out where you are now because the process does change you.
