70 Transitions Done Well - Step By Step

August 02, 2022 10:00 - 30 minutes - 21.2 MB

Transitions are not easy but they are necessary for our growth. A common challenge is teasing out whether we still have something to accomplish where we are on our journey or whether we're ready to move on. This is especially important in academia where the norm is to wait until someone else tells us a transition is due. Here are my thoughts about when YOU know it's time and how to leave effectively. Have a topic you want me to cover on the podcast? To submit your Listener Letter, send an ...

68 The Two Suspects That Cloud Our Judgment

July 19, 2022 10:00 - 14 minutes - 9.76 MB

Decisions, decisions, decisions. In decision-making, there are two common feelings that lead people to make choices for their careers that they later regret.  This matters because the series of decisions we make is *the* difference between enjoying or suffering through our career.  I want us all to be aware of these two feelings so that we can interrupt the pattern. This episode is short and sweet. And ‘once you know better, you do better.’ Let’s go! Have a topic you want me to cover on th...

67 Making A Way Out Of No Way In Your Career

July 12, 2022 10:00 - 32 minutes - 22.5 MB

When we are struggling to find fulfillment in our work, there is often a disconnect between what we say we want and a scary truth - at the core, we believe what we want is impossible. At the end of the day, we have to make a way out of no way.  So how do you actually do this? Listen in as I offer you four steps to do so.

66 The Talent Trap of High Achievers

July 05, 2022 10:00 - 33 minutes - 23 MB

You are a high-achieving, bad*ss woman. You work hard and you prove yourself, time and again. And then – first slowly, but then in major ways – you start to feel TRAPPED. How is this happening? Does success mean you have to suffer?  The Talent Trap is real and in many ways is the fossil fuel on which academic medicine runs. But just like fossil fuels, the resource is finite, inefficient, and bad for your health! Take a listen this week and come get free with me.  Have a topic you want me t...

65 Reacting vs. Responding In 3 Steps

June 28, 2022 10:00 - 26 minutes - 18.6 MB

When unpleasant things happen, especially interpersonally, a part of us righteously stands up in defense of ourselves. We need to uphold our boundaries and yet the fog of anger can also lead to less than ideal decisions.  So if popping off is not the answer, how do you get out of a space of reacting and into responding?  In this episode, I'll walk you through three steps I take to be unapologetic about my boundaries while not buying more pain in the future.  Have a topic you want me to co...

64 Stealing Ideas

June 21, 2022 10:00 - 27 minutes - 18.8 MB

Conversations around “stealing ideas” are common in academic medicine, public health, and allied fields. An important question that's often left out of the conversations is why idea theft is even a thing in our field?  In this episode, I talk about a direct link between common advice that we tell our early-career faculty and how it contributes to this culture of "stealing ideas".  I'm offering this into the conversation in hopes that it prompts some reflection for those that are further al...

63 Your Faculty Title vs. What You Actually Do

June 14, 2022 10:00 - 28 minutes - 19.7 MB

 Our faculty titles mean so much, after working so hard to achieve them. Seeing that email signature with “....Professor” next to your name is such a celebration. It’s also *quite* vague. The same title encompasses many different day-to-day jobs. And therein lies the challenge and the vulnerability. You're really excited to have it, but you're not really doing the work or the research that you came there to do.  In this episode, we tackle the question of your faculty title vs. what you actu...

62 The Myth Of The Magical Coach

June 07, 2022 10:00 - 30 minutes - 20.7 MB

I hope we have all had an experience that seemed downright MAGICAL. The ones where we have no idea how something happened, but it clearly did because the results are undeniable. It’s like magic! Well, this is often the feedback we get about our coaching program, Get That Grant. When coaching people in the GTG Coaching Program, they're experiencing the coaching but they don't see all that has gone into creating the program. And so the experience can seem magical. I want to offer that the re...

60 Nonsense Disguised as Early Career Advice

May 24, 2022 10:00 - 41 minutes - 28.7 MB

I have been waiting to talk about this topic for a while and the time is now.  There is a lot of nonsense that gets said to early-career faculty, especially women of color, in academic medicine and public health in the guise of ‘advice’. Lots of it is harmless, but some things are not – they stick, they get under the skin, and it’s not okay.  If you’ve ever heard any of these, I hope this episode is a cleansing balm. Let’s do this.   Have a topic you want me to cover on the podcast? To s...

59 Protecting Yourself From A Distorted Career Experience

May 17, 2022 10:00 - 42 minutes - 29.1 MB

When the consistent experience of our work as high-achieving women of color faculty in academic medicine is one of challenge, compromise, and struggle, this leads to us having a distorted view of the actual work that we are doing. When we are in that distorted view and we start making decisions, we make terrible decisions.   Please, please, please, don't do this. There is a solution to the distortion.

57 Biting Off More Than You Can Chew - Tips for Overwhelm

May 03, 2022 10:00 - 42 minutes - 29.1 MB

Who has ever bitten off WAY more than they can chew?! “I said yes to WHAT?!” #Relatable.  When this happens our first instinct is often to put our heads down, focus, and Get It Done By any means.

55 Reflections on When I Missed My Own Value

April 19, 2022 10:00 - 26 minutes - 18.5 MB

I've been doing this podcast for a YEAR. Wow. Reflection is a powerful tool for personal growth. It helps you to not only download your thoughts to clarify what you're actually thinking but it also allows you to see, honor, and celebrate your growth - and hone in on opportunities to improve. Are you new to reflection or looking for new ways of reflecting? In this episode, I am doing a real-time reflection of my March Madness trip. Three conferences, six and a half days and so many ah-ha m...

52 Finding Your Faculty Identity

March 29, 2022 10:00 - 37 minutes - 26 MB

Questioning your identity within your academic career is not uncommon. In many ways, the training we endure to get to a faculty position strips us of our internal definition of identity, offering an institution-based definition in its place. Without the awareness that this question might be lurking, we can set ourselves up for unhelpful behavior and thought patterns that persist for years. Listen in as I discuss how to make a shift and proactively define your personal identity in your academ...

51 Holding The Vision

March 22, 2022 10:00 - 37 minutes - 25.7 MB

As high-achieving women of color in academic medicine, public health, or allied fields we all have a vision for our life. In fact, we have a big audacious vision. This vision we have for our careers is what got us to where we are, yet we tend to minimize that vision for several reasons.  In this episode, I want to focus on three reasons why we minimize our vision and what we can do to move past it. If you are ready to make a shift and boldly claim your vision, act on your vision and align y...

Then there are three non-negotiable skills that you need to master. Without these skills, your career becomes one of frustration, resentment, restriction, and ultimately burnout.  Listen in to learn about the three skills that are required to bu...

March 01, 2022 11:00 - 28 minutes - 19.4 MB

When you've experienced negative consequences as a BIPOC woman trying to use your agency, you may feel like you only have two choices.

47 Taboo Topics: Mentors & Money

February 22, 2022 11:00 - 27 minutes - 18.6 MB

Today let's talk about some Taboo Topics! Mentors and Money. Power dynamics are real in academic medicine and often the most important conversations get shut down because we don’t know how to have them and frankly, we don’t know what we don’t know.   This week, we’re talking about what it means to optimize your relationships with mentors and leaders beyond the superficial. For money, we're talking about salaries (yep, we’re going there, how the common messaging pressures you to go with the ...

44 Navigating New Motherhood in Academic Medicine (Listener Letter #3)

February 01, 2022 11:00 - 34 minutes - 23.9 MB

Transitioning into motherhood as high-achieving women of color means that nothing will be the same. There is no normal to go back to nor can we reclaim the pace we had before. The bottom line is that the career life that we were living before becoming a parent has died.   The transition into motherhood, however, is an incredible opportunity to radically change how you think about productivity, success, and impact. It may be baptism by fire, but this new life stage gives presents an opportun...

43 Reclaiming Career Control Today

January 25, 2022 11:00 - 16 minutes - 11.6 MB

When it gets to that point where the definition of who you are, your goal, and why you're doing what you're doing is the list of activities that you have to complete, this is a sure sign of a total lack of career control.  In this episode, I want to talk about this loss of career control to help us truly understand where and how the switch happens. I'll also provide you with strategies to reclaim career control and get back on track!     Do you have a question or topic ideas for the podcas...

42 Skills You Don't Learn in Grant Workshops

January 18, 2022 05:00 - 37 minutes - 25.9 MB

Most grant-getting workshops focus on the "how-tos" of writing and on deciphering between the requirements of the various sections of the grant and avoiding major pitfalls. While these skills are important and necessary, they are not sufficient – not even close. If your goal is to secure funding doing the work you love, you’re gonna need more, period.    In this episode, I offer what I think are four critical skills, not just to write excellent grants, but to secure the funding and support ...

40 Your Formula For A Fantastic Year

January 04, 2022 11:00 - 25 minutes - 17.7 MB

I don’t know about y’all but I’m tired of setting low expectations because “who knows what’s going to happen this year.” If this is the new normal, I still know I want *more.*  Last year taught me a major lesson on hard work and surrender. Seeds planted bloom when they are ready. This week, I'm sharing a powerful formula – the type of seeds and the right intervals -  to set up your fantastic 2022.    Happy New Year and let’s GO!    Do you have a question or topic ideas for the podcast?

37 Confidence, Focus, Discipline, & Boundaries

December 14, 2021 11:00 - 24 minutes - 16.9 MB

This episode basically starts with a pet peeve of mine. It’s not because there’s anything wrong with people saying “I want to be more X” - X = confident, focused, disciplined, or ‘boundaried’ – it's just that I have SO much to say in response and I usually have to hold back. I mean, who wants to be coached AT by a random colleague?!   But y’all are my peeps, so it’s a safe space. This week on the podcast, I’m talking about THE fundamental error I hear, and subsequently see, after faculty ha...

36 How To Take Responsibility For Your Dreams

December 07, 2021 11:00 - 39 minutes - 27.1 MB

I don’t think we consciously delegate responsibility for our career dreams, but it is the default setup of academic medicine. We get used to our role being ‘securing the spot’ and our institution’s role is to deliver on the promise. That is the entire setup for training and in many ways is still the setup for faculty members. Works great - as long as you don’t have specific goals and dreams for your career.    Well – that ain’t me or my folks! In this week’s episode, I give examples of what...

35 Making Growth Comfortable

November 30, 2021 11:00 - 27 minutes - 18.9 MB

There are 3 things that happen to me every single time I know I’m ready to grow. Without fail. Like clockwork. First, I am suddenly crystal clear on what I no longer what to be doing. #Reclaimingmytime. I could write a dissertation about why I am ‘done done, for real.’ Second, I feel a growing hopefulness for what is possible for the future and I can start to articulate what I DO want. And then there’s the third thing – the sticker. The one that trips me, and many of us, up every time:  I s...

34 What Really is a 'Safe Space' for Career Development?

November 23, 2021 11:00 - 28 minutes - 19.5 MB

Part of career development is simply learning the unspoken rules and some very valuable tips on strategy to help you avoid rookie mistakes. But that’s just part of it, and honestly, that’s the easy part. The real meat of any true career development – which is actually both professional and personal development – is learning how to translate *both* your value and your values from internal desires to external structure, focus, and success.   And THAT requires safe space.   You can’t grow aut...

33 Career Stumbling Blocks and Making Mistakes

November 16, 2021 11:00 - 34 minutes - 23.7 MB

The road as faculty in academic medicine and public health can be bumpy – some bumps are expected and have a lot of narrative built around them (paper rejection, grant just missing the pay line) and those are fine. I’m talking this week about the bumps that are…worse. The things that can throw us way off – like making BIG mistakes – that aren’t so cozily wrapped up in pep talks. These things make us question ourselves and our abilities. If we are not careful, they start to leech from our fut...

31 The Consequences of Aligning Your Career with your Value

November 01, 2021 10:00 - 18 minutes - 12.6 MB

So - career transformation is not a walk in the park. I will never stop preaching how important it is for us to uproot the trainee mindset that has overwork, overwhelm, and dissatisfaction to be the norm in academic medicine. We must uproot this and replace it with building a career based on your value. However, I acknowledge – it’s not easy!   Most powerful things aren’t. In this week’s episode of Your Unapologetic Career, we talk through a critical consequence of owning your value – the e...

30 Learning How To Quit

October 26, 2021 10:00 - 26 minutes - 18.4 MB

I don’t know about y’all but I never learned how to quit anything in academic medicine. And yet, unless you have some kind of 100% perfect “No” response from the minute you started on faculty, you likely have at least 1 thing on your plate that just needs to go. Knowing it needs to go doesn’t mean you are any closer to quitting – because that’s just not what we do.    It’s not about not knowing what to write in the email, we have to go deeper.    In this episode, I talk about the consequen...

29 4 Ways to Stop Saying Yes When You Really Mean No

October 19, 2021 10:00 - 42 minutes - 29.2 MB

We all do this. We know we do it, but it’s still so hard to stop. Or we have gotten much better with our Nos, but it’s still painful and energy-draining to execute. Yet, we know we have to say No – a LOT more. This week I tackle one of the biggest self-imposed causes of overwhelm. When we stack our schedule with things we don’t actually want to be a part of, we lose time and we compound resentment. This cycle has to stop!   In this week’s episode of Your Unapologetic Career, I walk you thro...
