Lessons From An Astronaut: Achieving Your Dreams In (a Male Dominated) Space
Ever wondered what zero gravity feels like? Since age 3, Kelly Latimer wanted to be an astronaut. Her dreams were initially thwarted by uncontrollable health conditions, so she chose to join the Air Force as a pilot instead. But after years working, an opportunity to travel to space soon arose. She was hired to fly for Virgin Galactic, working in a new niche: space tourism. In this episode we chat about being a woman in male dominated spaces, how to forge ahead and go after your dreams despite potential setbacks, and finally a bit about the Overview Effect: a cognitive shift reported by some astronauts while viewing the Earth from space.
