Ordinarily Extraordinary - Conversations with women in STEM
I’m an electrical engineer who enjoys listening to and sharing stories of ordinarily extraordinary women that work in STEM fields. The women featured on these episodes work in different STEM fields, are at different phases in their careers, and bring their unique perspectives and stories. I am endlessly fascinated by what these women do, how they have navigated their careers, balanced families, and why they made the career choices they did. Most STEM fields are dominated by men which makes for unique circumstances for women to navigate. It’s a privilege to be able to share their stories through this podcast.
Ordinarily Extraordinary - Conversations with women in STEM
113. Kathy Kale Nelson - Show Up, Sign Up, Speak Up, Give a Hand Up
This is a recording from a keynote speech I gave at a women in energy forum in 2017.
I talk about the importance of:
- Showing up - especially as your authentic self
- Signing up, or just say "yes" if an opportunity comes up
- Speaking up - use your voice, even when it shakes
- Giving a hand up - to women who come behind you - we need to support each other.
Music used in the podcast: Higher Up, Silverman Sound Studio
