    Episode 5: Learning Mindsets & the Law

    In this episode I spoke with Katie Moran. In our conversation, Katie describes her journey from being a curious kid who sourced confidence and motivation from team sports to becoming a teacher, lawyer, and now law school professor. She highlights how informal learning — outside of school and curriculum — and her efforts to reflect regularly on her progress propelled her forward through various career paths. I was most intrigued to hear about Katie’s approach to incorporating mindsets into law school curriculum; what started as a push to help more students pass the formidable Bar exam led to her developing a unique course all about growth mindset, self-regulation and countering imposter syndrome as a foundational experience for developing lawyers. She embodies the idea of “How can we get the most out of this experience?” and it was a pleasure to hear her share examples of how this has shown up in her life.

    Episode 4: Learning with your Whole Self

    In this episode I spoke with Danise Olague. A former teacher, Danise describes her motivations to pursue education, and how she sees it intersect with activism and ethnic studies. We also talk about her gradual transition from the teaching world to her current role as an accessibility specialist and advocate — including how being diagnosed with a disability influenced her perspective on the potential for technology and design to be a positive force for inclusion and social change. Lastly Danise explains what “growth mindset” means to her, and how mindfulness and play shape her ongoing learning as a mother and person today.

    Episode 3: Learning through Career Evolution

    In this episode I spoke with career coach Meg Duffy. Meg coaches people — primarily women in the tech space — through meaningful career transitions, offering structure and support through what can be an intimidating and elusive process. In our conversation we discuss how she came to that work, and how her early experiences of learning and self-discovery have illuminated her own career trajectory and development. Meg also suggests some helpful questions and nuggets of wisdom from her perspective as a coach that can inform anyone’s learning and self-inquiry process, whether or not you’re on the brink of a career switch.

    Episode 2: Learning in the Body

    In this episode I spoke with one of my earliest and most influential teachers, dancer & choreographer Katie Faulkner. Katie shares about her journey into dance and refining her skills as a dance teacher, as well as how she approaches her work as a choreographer through a cyclical learning process. She sheds some light on the fear of being seen so many of us feel when we share our ideas publicly, and offers a refreshing perspective on the importance of rest and waiting to "making" — especially in the current pandemic.

    Episode 1: Learning about Identity

    Welcome to Season 2! In this first episode, I spoke with  Chelsea Johnson, a User Experience Researcher at LinkedIn who also has her PhD in Sociology from USC. Chelsea is also one of the authors of the amazing book Intersectionallies, which aims to explain intersectionality and the many aspects of identity to children, but is also really a book for all people. Chelsea and I spoke about her learning experiences growing up and through graduate school, her interests and passions that sparked Intersectionallies, and some of the ways she's continuing to learn and adapt to a Covid-19 world in her day-to-day life today.
