Where are my fellow control freaks? 

Such an interesting and way more helpful perspective to rethink and redefine perfectionism. You know when you read a book and it’s so groundbreaking and helpful, you can’t help but tell all your friends, post about it? Well, I was the recipient of essentially being attacked on all sides that I needed to read this award-winning book, The Perfectionists’ Guide to Losing Control by Katherine Morgan Schafler. Katherine is a seasoned psychotherapist and former in-house therapist for Google, with a BA in psychology from Berkeley and 2 masters from Columbia University and I’ve got her incredibly refreshing and game-changing approach broken down today. We talk about self-punishment vs. discipline. We talk about adaptive and maladaptive perfectionism and why restoration and resting feels like failure to perfectionists - and my favorite, control vs. power. I really am super excited for you to hear it and can't wait to hear what type of perfectionist are you!

1. Developmental Psychology: The American Psychological Association describes developmental psychology as the study of human growth and changes across the lifespan, including: physical, cognitive, social, intellectual, perceptual, personality, and emotional growth.
2. Acculturation: Acculturation is the process whereby an individual from one cultural group learns and adopts elements of another cultural group, integrating them into his or her original culture. Although it can refer to any process of cultural integration, it is typically used to describe the ways in which an immigrant or non majority individual or group adopts cultural elements from the majority or mainstream culture, as the incentive is typically greater for acculturation to occur in this direction. (Berry JW. Conceptual approaches to acculturation In: Chun KM, Balls Organista P, Marín G (Eds.), Acculturation: Advances in theory, measurement, and applied research. (pp. 17–37) Washington, DC: American Psychological Association; 2003)

The finding that prominent female scientists are missing from school curricula shocked many of us. So why is representation so important?

With the news that our school curricula are missing the names of female scientists, it begs the question: Why aren't prominent scientists household names?

Researchers have found school curriculums are missing the contributions of female scientists. Why is it so important we know the people behind the discoveries?

Sometimes in life, you’ve got to do what you can to make the best out of a bad situation. For Shanae Chapman, that meant using a bad post-graduation job market to launch her own agency, Nerdy Diva. Now she’s setting her sights on bigger goals and doing what she can to help others achieve success in tech and design.

We began by talking about how Shanae started her agency, and we discussed the current state of AI tools and the changing landscape of UX research and design. She also spoke about growing up in St. Louis, attending college, and shared how she used her collective work experiences to dive deeper into the world of UX. For Shanae, hard work and motivation have been the keys to her success!

In this episode we talk about taking on interns in the office. We discuss what they do, what they may benefit from, paying them, expectations, and why internships are valuable. We also go through the PowerPoint of a recent intern he was required to to complete on the last day of his internship. We discuss what he learned during his time and how applicable his new found knowledge of EM is in the real world. We were surprised by what an intern was able to learn in such a short period of time.
