Recorded December 5th, 2024. A hybrid seminar by Dr Lorraine Grimes (Maynooth University) as part of the Medical and Health Humanities Seminar Series. Bio: Lorraine Grimes is a Postdoctoral Researcher in Applied Social Studies at Maynooth University. Lorraine has a PhD from the National University of Ireland Galway. Her thesis is forthcoming in the form of a monograph with Bloomsbury Academic in 2025 titled ‘Single mothers in Ireland and Britain: Pregnancy, migration and institutionalisation'. Lorraine previously worked with the Digital Repository of Ireland on the Archiving Reproductive Health project which is the subject of this talk. Abstract: Archiving Reproductive Health (ARH) is a Wellcome-funded project coordinated by the Digital Repository of Ireland (DRI), working to preserve digital material created by grassroots organisations working for reproductive justice in Ireland, especially during the 2018 referendum to repeal the Eighth Amendment of the Irish constitution. The project was the first in the world to archive Facebook social media posts. A key part of the project was the archiving of stories posted on a Facebook page called “In Her Shoes”, where people anonymously shared their experiences of being refused abortion care, having to travel or illegally order pills online, and the emotional impact of these experiences. These stories often contained details of traumatic experiences such as sexual assault, obstetric violence and domestic abuse. This talk will introduce the Archiving Reproductive Health Project and archiving sensitive social media material. We will talk about anonymization procedures, coding/cataloguing and developing a self-care protocol and an ethics protocol for the project. Learn more at www.tcd.ie/trinitylongroomhub

At the center of the story lies Emily Weiss, the elusive former Teen Vogue “superintern” on the reality show The Hills turned Into the Gloss beauty blogger who had the vision, guts, and searing ambition needed to launch Glossier. She cannily turned every experience, every meeting into an opportunity to fuel her own personal success. Together with her expensive, signature style and singular vision for the future of consumerism, she could not be stopped. Just how did a girl from suburban Connecticut with no real job experience work her way into the bathrooms and boudoirs of the most influential names in the world and build that access into a 1.9-billion-dollar business?

Our guest on In Her Shoes this week is Geraldine Chung, the founder of the beloved online fashion brand LCD.  It began as an online destination, showcasing an inspired mix of emerging independent designers. The brand grew fast—within a few years, Chung went on to open a brick and mortar location in Los Angeles.  But like so many other small businesses, LCD took a big revenue hit during the pandemic. It's been difficult for small brands like it to regain stability, much less profitability. Earlier this month, Chung announced in a very candid Instagram post that she's shutting down the business. We wanted to talk to her about how she reached this decision, and ask her to reflect on what she learned in a decade of building and evolving the brand in a changing retail landscape.

Mara Hoffman started her eponymous label in 2002 out of her Upper East Side apartment.

Hoffman began transforming her business practices, with a commitment to sustainability as a core principle.  This fall, Hoffman was awarded the Environmental Sustainability Award from the Council of Fashion Designers of America.

Today, we dive into the story of Baroness Karen Brady and how her journey, along with personal experiences, can help us create blueprints for success. One valuable piece of advice was to "fail fast." Embracing this mindset allows us to pivot when needed and stop wasting time on unfruitful paths.

The 80/20 principle teaches us to focus on the vital few tasks that yield significant results, maximizing productivity. By planning our day strategically and capitalizing on our strengths, we can achieve more with less effort.

She brought a small town to its feet and a huge company to its knees – that's right, this week we're talking all things Erin Brockovich with the film's screenwriter, Susannah Grant.Susannah is a talent who, over an impressive three decade career, has gone from writing on the ‘90s teen TV drama Party of Five and conquering animation with Pocahontas to penning dramas like 28 Days, romcoms like In Her Shoes and science-fiction with The 5th Wave. She's also a force to be reckoned with behind the camera: having made her directorial debut in 2006 with the comedy drama Catch and Release, Susannah wrote and directed episodes of the recent searing Netflix series Unbelievable, which took a scalpel to the problem of rape culture in America.Erin Brockovich, though, remains one of her best-loved works. Her witty script for the Julia Roberts-starring, Steven Soderbergh-directed legal drama earned her an Oscar nomination on release in 2000, and it's both a testament to her writing and an indictment about our society's lack of progress that the film still feels so relevant today. The film told the true-life tale of a single mother who fought and won a landmark legal case against the Pacific Gas & Electric Company over contaminated water supplied to residents in the town of Hinkley, California. In order to secure justice for the hundreds of people made sick by PG&E's malfeasance, the real-life Erin had to navigate misogyny, classism and the demands of parenthood. Susannah's script captured all of that with poignancy and punch.In the spoiler conversation you're about to hear, Susannah tells us all about grabbing burgers with the real-life Erin Brockovich, the importance of David vs Goliath stories like this, the balance of fact versus fiction in the film – and the one line that had to change at Erin's request.Script Apart is hosted by Al Horner and produced by Kamil Dymek.

This summer I'm releasing bonus episodes of The Take Home. No new lectures on leadership, instead I'm sharing the amazing podcasts created by the students in my Leadership for Sport Professionals class. Today's bonus episode features “In Her Shoes" produced and created by Reese Wallace and Taylor Campbell. In the podcast, they interview Robert Miller, the Director of Speed and Agility for LA Galaxy Conejo Valley Soccer Club and owner of Phenom Sports Performance. Robert is a former college football player and can be found at @Phenom_SP on Instagram and TikTok (he promises there are no dancing videos!).  Robert's mantra: “If it was easy, everyone would do it” is a great throughline in the episode -- and an important reminder for all of us, no matter where we are in our leadership journey. He also discusses why leaders need to be authentic, trustworthy, and care deeply about their followers. Robert highlights that providing the answers isn't what everyone needs and that great leaders help everyone, themselves included, stay focused on the process rather than the outcome. It's a unique and important take on the idea of controlling the controllables. I love how he talks about being vulnerable and honest as a means to develop strong relationships.  I hope you enjoy this episode as much as I did! Let me know what you think; reach out on LinkedIn or at @TingleJK on Twitter. Credits: Music used for “In Her Shoes” was produced and created by GG Riggs.  The podcast cover photo was taken by Jacob Tingle at Los Rapidos Bacalar in the Yucatan, Mexico. The intro music is "Be My Guest" by Crowander. "My underground" by Distemper is the closing credits music.

In today's episode I sit down with filmmaker Cynthia Salzman Mondell and artist Sandra Lara to discuss their partnership on the film, In Her Shoes. This documentary captures the stories of incarcerated women at the Dallas County Jail in Dallas Texas but what makes their approach so unique is that the connective tissue between each of these women's stories is it all begins with a shoe in mind. Hear Cynthia and Sandra's take on the experience guiding the women to unearth some of their fondest memories to those who begin to find healing from past trauma using shoes as an entry-point.

We are back in 2023 with the first episode of the fourth season of Watch With Jen & it's a nice long, chatty, analytical one that's as surprisingly moving as it is filled with great Hollywood stories. RAVENOUS, OCEAN'S ELEVEN, & MATCHSTICK MEN screenwriter Ted Griffin (who also created FX's TERRIERS & produced THE WOLF OF WALL STREET) returns to the podcast to pay tribute to his old late mentor, the beloved yet still widely unsung writer-director Curtis Hanson.A man who began his career as a film critic, journalist, & photographer for "Cinema" magazine before he cut his teeth at Roger Corman's American International Pictures, Hanson went on to become a terrific director of crackerjack Hitchcockian thrillers before directing his masterpiece LA CONFIDENTIAL, & delving into more character-driven work like WONDER BOYS & IN HER SHOES.Focusing on the start of his career & rise to become a master of genre filmmaking, in this roughly ninety-minute conversation, we discuss the works THE SILENT PARTNER (adapted from a Danish crime novel by Hanson for director Daryl Duke), THE BEDROOM WINDOW, BAD INFLUENCE, THE HAND THAT ROCKS THE CRADLE, & THE RIVER WILD.A heartfelt ode to Hanson - the man as well as the filmmaker - this was such a wonderful discussion & Ted Griffin went above & beyond in calling the director's old friends, family, & collaborators, including the incredible cinematographer Robert Elswit, in order to paint the most accurate portrait of Hanson. I'm so honored to be in a position to not only hear all of these stories but share them with all of you as well, & I know you'll enjoy our celebration of the life & career of the great Curtis Hanson.Originally Posted on Patreon (2/27/23) here: https://www.patreon.com/posts/79288476Logo: KateGabrielle.comTheme Music: Solo Acoustic Guitar by Jason Shaw, Free Music Archive

It's Susan Korn's baby, the Susan Alexandra Store. Susan's aesthetic is like if Lisa Frank, Betsy Johnson and Hello Kitty had a baby. There's beaded purses, key chains, dog collars, wallets, jewelry and all the little trinkets to delight your inner child. It's a place you can't just talk about, you have to experience it.
