    218: How to Better Serve Formerly Incarcerated and System Impacted Students with Alexzander Calderon

    In this episode of the Grad School Femtoring Podcast, we discussed the topic of how to better serve formerly incarcerated and system impacted students with our guest, Alexzander “Zander” Calderon. Zander is a father and life long partner, cholo, Chicano del barrio, and co-founder of Cabrillo & Hartnell' college’s Rising Scholars Student Clubs. He’s also formerly incarcerated, a Loyola Law Forensic Gang Expert, and the Creative Director for Barrios Unidos Clothing.

He shares examples of the multifaceted support that formerly incarcerated and system impacted students need, including mental health support, community building, and empathy from peers and professors. He also stressed the need for increased visibility and acceptance of formerly incarcerated students in academic spaces and offers advice for those with shared experiences.

    215: Is Grad School For You: Questions to Consider Before Applying

    215: Is Grad School For You: Questions to Consider Before Applying

    This week I'm sharing some key questions you should ask yourself when considering applying to graduate school. These questions cover your motivations, career goals, and level of self-awareness. After answering these questions, you'll be closer to making an informed decision regarding whether or not it makes sense for you to pursue grad school.



    I'm also excited to announce my new book "Is Grad School For Me?" is available for pre-order. Only those who preorder the book get instant access to a supplementary workbook with resources that include a quiz with similar questions. I co-authored this book with Dr. Miroslava Chavez-Garcia to provide the guidance I wished I had as an undergraduate. Please pre-order the book and let your friends and professors know it will be available in April 2024.

    On today's episode of the Grad School Femtoring Podcast, we dive deep into ancestor work, lineage, and legacy building with my dear friend Camila Lacques-Zapién. As first-gen BIPOC students and professionals, understanding our histories and tapping into ancestral wisdom can be profoundly healing and empowering.



    Camila Lacques-Zapién helps BIPOC & first gen visionaries build legacies rooted in community & authenticity through her business, ALA CAMILA. She offers personal statement, admissions, creativity, holistic purpose and career coaching. She prides herself on being a compassionate, multi-ethnic, Chicana mystical hype woman, an avid LA sports fan and a lover of creative writing.

She shares ways to connect with one’s ancestry and legacy through intention and daily practice.

Intentional and Important Podcast

This is an amazing podcast. I am currently on my last year of my PhD program in Leadership and Special Education, and in all honesty have felt crippling anxiety since day 1. Listening to a few episodes has helped me feel less alone as a PhD student and empowered... just hearing the voices of the incredible women she has invited and talked with has helped re-ignite the dreams I had during the beginning of the program. During the most recent episode they talked about how our families just really won’t Thank you Dra. Yvette. Your voice is so important. I hope you know that you uplift so many people with your voice and existence.

ConfettiCreative.Co | PR ,

Highly recommend for all first gen students!

This is the best podcast I’ve come across that specifically understands first generation and Latino/a grad students! Dra. Yvette is a first gen college student herself, so she knows how you’re feeling and speaks to the things that mainstream college prep resources aren’t talking about. From feeling imposter syndrome to seeking ways to leverage your degree for the Latino/a community, this podcast has you covered with great advice!

4YourHealth ,

The best podcast for college students

Dra. Yvette Martínez-Vu is an incredible person that I had the honor to collaborate for an edited book “The Chicana Motherwork Anthology” and as a guest for this podcast. Dr. Yvette shares so many gems and nuggets of wisdom for graduate students. A podcast you need to follow and support so that you don’t miss out on valuable information.
