Podcasts about Making Time

After tenure, it can feel like everyone is depending on you, from students to your junior colleagues, your co-authors, and even your family.  In this episode, I explore what it really means to lead for legacy at this stage in your academic career. Leadership isn't about taking on more work or moving into administration. It's about how you show up for others while also taking care of yourself. I'll share how to lead in a way that sustains both you and the people who look to you for guidance.  Then, I break down why it is okay to focus your energy on your academic mission and cementing your legacy, even if that means saying no to people who helped you reach tenure. From prioritizing your wellbeing to reshaping your career to be what you want, I challenge you to shift your mindset on leadership. Listen in to learn how to lead for legacy without burning out, and how to model a new kind of success in academia. For full show notes visit scholarsvoice.org/podcast.

Have you been told to "step into leadership" on your campus, only to realize what they really meant was taking on more admin work?  In this episode, I'm breaking down one of academia's biggest myths: that leadership and administration are the same thing. They're not, and understanding the difference can transform how you approach your academic career. As part of our Mid-Career Series, this episode explores what real leadership looks like beyond the tenure track. I share what I've learned about leading without losing yourself to bureaucracy and why leadership is less about hierarchy and more about vision, collaboration, and identity.  You'll also hear what I learned firsthand from stepping briefly into administration and how it reshaped my understanding of what academic leadership really is. Tune in now to learn how to leverage your leadership to build influence, impact, and a meaningful legacy without getting lost in admin work.

Tom Cosm is an electronic musician, Ableton Certified Trainer, and the technical co-founder of Telepathic Instruments. Widely known for his early Ableton Live tutorials and inventive use of hacked gear, Tom has built a reputation as a true audio mad scientist—transforming data, brainwaves, and even bugs into expressive sound. In this conversation, Tom shares his journey from early YouTube educator to the co-creator of Orchid, a new instrument, dreamt up by Tame Impala's Kevin Parker, built to spark musical ideas with immediacy and joy. We explore the evolution of his creative philosophy, how tools can invite spontaneity, and what he's learned about music (and life) by building instruments from scratch.  Listen on Apple, Spotify, YouTube Takeaways: From YouTube to Orchid - Tom's journey started with early Ableton tutorials on YouTube and led to co-creating Orchid—a creative "ideas machine" that helps musicians quickly generate complex chord progressions. Music in Everything - Whether converting brainwaves, weather data, or the movement of a spider into sound, Tom finds musicality in everyday patterns and natural systems. Designing for Play - Tom emphasizes having fun while making music. Orchid was intentionally built without a screen to encourage tactile exploration and playful interactions. Community-Driven Development - Community has been a constant factor in Tom's work and continues through community-feedback on Orchid. Making Time for Music Again - After years focused on building hardware, Tom is excited to return to making music—starting with 80 unfinished tracks and a fresh wave of curiosity.

Christine Tulley, President and Executive Writing Coach, discusses how academics can determine whether they have a viable publication idea by examining four key factors: first, whether you can execute the project with available resources including time, materials, and access to necessary data; second, whether the idea fits with a target journal or publication outlet and potentially a backup option; third, how the idea aligns with your scholarly positioning, expertise, and research agenda; and fourth, whether the idea has potential impact with an identifiable audience who would actually read and engage with the work. Tulley emphasizes that ideas should be tested through conversations with colleagues and conference presentations, and she provides practical examples from her own career transitions, noting that some ideas may be too small for full articles or too broad to execute effectively. She concludes by promoting her writing coaching services' holiday special for faculty who want help developing their publication ideas.  Slides Used Resources HOLIDAY COACHING HOURS - All hours at lowest prices for the year Tuesday Toolbox - contact christine@defendpublishandlead.com for subscription information Set your writing goals with us!

Are you feeling stuck, unmotivated, or wondering what happened to the joy you once felt in your academic work? You're not alone. Today, I'm tackling one of the most common and least discussed challenges in the scholarly journey: the mid-career slump. This episode is part of our Mid-Career Series, where I am exploring what it really takes to thrive after tenure. If you've hit that milestone and expected relief, only to feel even more frustrated and overwhelmed, this conversation is for you. I unpack how the academic system sets you up to sprint toward tenure, pushing yourself harder and harder in pursuit of safety and validation, and why, when you finally get there, that safety often feels like an illusion. You'll hear why the habits, mindsets, and patterns that got you to tenure can easily lead to burnout afterward, and how to shift them now, whether you're pre-tenure and want to avoid the slump, or mid-career and ready to reclaim joy, purpose, and balance in your work. If you've ever thought, "Is this really what I worked so hard for?", this episode will help you find your way back to a sustainable and meaningful academic career. Tune in to hear why mid-career burnout isn't inevitable, and how to realign your choices, priorities, and time so your academic life actually supports your wellbeing, not drains it.

My Mid-Career Series is all about redefining success after tenure and building a career that feels as meaningful as it looks on paper. In this segment, I share one of the hardest truths about the academic journey — what got you here won't get you there. I explore how the habits, priorities, and systems that helped you earn tenure may actually hold you back from becoming a full professor or advancing in new directions. If you've been feeling like you're working just as hard but not making meaningful progress. Or, if you're wondering why your post-tenure years feel less clear than the path that got you here, this episode is for you. I share insights from my own experience and from coaching hundreds of scholars through this exact phase of their careers, helping you see where your energy might be better spent and what needs to evolve as you move forward. It's time to rethink your mid-career strategy, make space for the next stage of your scholarly life, and get clear on how to achieve your academic mission without burning out.

Many post-tenure professors find themselves more exhausted than ever, despite achieving what they thought would finally bring balance. In this segment of the Mid-Career Podcast Series, I unpack why you're still so dang tired and what you can do to reclaim your energy, focus, and purpose in your academic career. I'll dive into what exhaustion really looks like for scholars who've spent years pushing toward tenure, only to find that the same habits and overbooked schedules have followed them into the next chapter of their careers. From managing others' fires to working without time for real thinking and writing, we'll talk about the deep structural and emotional reasons behind mid-career fatigue, and how to change them. If you've been running on empty, constantly giving your time to everyone else's priorities, this conversation is your permission slip to slow down, reevaluate, and rebuild your career from a place of power and purpose. Listen now to learn why exhaustion isn't a personal failing. It's a sign it's time to take control and create the career you really want.

The stress, pressure, and overwhelm we feel in busy seasons of our lives does not come from God. Jesus gives us peace, no matter how busy life may get. This is why the busier we are, the more time we need with God. In today's episode, we discuss grace-filled practical ways to make time for prayer when life is full.Key Takeaways• We can't compartmentalize our relationship with God and feel like the only time God is pleased with us is when we're praying.• God is not going to be less powerful if we don't spend time praying to Him today. We will be less powerful if we do not spend time praying to Him today.• There is nothing that can fill you up like God can.Resources Mentions in This PodcastDownload Christina's Free 5 Day Prayer Guide at www.belovedwomen.org/prayer-guide to help you put into practice the powerful habit of prayer.Connect with Christina PatersonWebsite: https://www.belovedwomen.orgYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/BelovedWomenTVInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/BelovedWomenFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/BelovedWomenScriptures in the Podcast are from NIV, ESV or NKJV Discover more Christian podcasts at lifeaudio.com and inquire about advertising opportunities at lifeaudio.com/contact-us.

When you finally receive that long-awaited email announcing tenure, you expect it to change everything—less stress, more freedom, and the chance to finally pursue the big dreams you've been putting on hold. But what happens when the reality doesn't live up to the hype?  In this episode of the Mid-Career Series, I share my own post-tenure story. From the anticlimactic certification letter to the realization that tenure didn't automatically bring clarity, impact, or balance. Instead, I found myself stuck at the top of the promotion ladder in the middle of a financial crisis, still overworked and unsure of what was next. If you've ever thought tenure would be the turning point that finally allowed you to regain control of your academic career, this conversation may feel uncomfortably familiar. But it also opens the door to imagining something bigger for your career, on your own terms. Listen now to hear my story about securing tenure and discover how you can start building the academic career you truly want now, without letting a prospective promotion hold you back.  For full show notes visit scholarsvoice.org/podcast.   We're receiving applications for our next cohort of Navigate: Your Writing Roadmap®.

She shares how she moved from overwhelm to clarity as God called her to write and release her first book, and the boundaries she drew to make space for it.Here's what we cover:How God redirected Lori's life in her empty-nest seasonWhy saying “yes” to a calling means saying “no” to other good thingsThe difference between having a plan on paper vs. a step-by-step focus mapHow stewarding your calling is never meant to be a solo projectLori's story will encourage you to stop waiting for permission and lean into the support God provides so you can step boldly into what He's asking of you.

In Episode 248 Christine Tulley, President and Executive Writing Coach AT Defend, Publish & Lead, shares four practical strategies for managing grading responsibilities while protecting writing time: front-loading writing at the beginning of the semester before grading intensifies, leaving detailed notes after each writing session to facilitate re-entry after breaks, prioritizing writing before grading whenever possible to ensure it happens and to capitalize on fresh mental energy, and proactively blocking backup writing slots in future weeks to compensate for reduced productivity during heavy grading periods. She emphasizes that balance isn't always realistic—some weeks will be more grading-heavy while others allow for more writing—and encourages listeners to stay connected to their scholarly work even during demanding teaching periods, suggesting resources like the Tuesday Toolbox video series as a way to keep writing skills sharp when time is limited.

Earning tenure is often treated as the finish line of an academic career—but what if it's actually the start of a whole new set of challenges? This episode is part of our Mid-Career Series, where I discuss what life really looks like post-tenure.  Too often, scholars expect tenure to mean lighter workloads, more freedom, and clearer direction. In reality, many find themselves juggling even more demands with fewer guideposts for what comes next.  I unpack five common myths about the post-tenure career stage and reveal what's really waiting on the other side of promotion. You'll hear why tenure can feel both more demanding and more liberating, and how to approach this stage of your career with clarity and purpose. If you're post-tenure or preparing for it, don't miss this myth-busting conversation. Listen now for a fresh perspective on shaping your next chapter in academia.

The Rev. Dr. Carl Gregg (September 7, 2025)

I am excited to kick off the brand-new Mid-Career Podcast Series, where I dive into the realities of academic life after tenure.  Mid-career is the longest stretch of the academic journey, often 15 to 20 years, and while it brings stability and experience, it can also feel like uncharted territory. Many academics discover that the freedoms they imagined post-promotion are replaced with heavier workloads, shifting priorities, and the lingering question of what's next. In this first episode, I lay the groundwork for what mid-career really looks like and why it matters. I'll talk about the gap between expectation and reality, the identity shifts that happen when the tenure track drive fades, and the surprising ways burnout shows up even after achieving major milestones.  Most importantly, I'll introduce how to think about mid-career not as a plateau, but as a phase filled with opportunities to realign, reset, and build skills that sustain your academic life for the long haul. Tune in to start reframing mid-career on your own terms and hear sneak peeks of the insights and stories I will share throughout this series.   For full show notes visit scholarsvoice.org/podcast.   We're receiving applications for our next cohort of Navigate: Your Writing Roadmap®.

In Episode 246 Christine Tulley, Defend, Publish & Lead President and Executive Writing Coach, shares three insights the Tuesday Toolbox writing initiative including: Academic writing benefits from formulas as starting points, writing sessions need single focuses beyond project selection (like argument clarity or sentence variety), and surprisingly, academic writers lack opportunities to regularly refresh their writing skills. Christine encourages listeners to actively seek ways to strengthen their craft through resources and continuous learning.   Related Episodes Episode 240: The Tuesday Toolbox   Resources Mentioned: Tuesday Toolbox - contact christine@defendpublishandlead.com for subscription information Set your writing goals with us!

What should take priority in your academic career right now: rewriting grant proposals or getting your papers published? In this episode, I offer a hot take that might make you pause—and rethink – how you're spending your precious writing time. Grants are, of course, essential for research. They fund our projects, sustain our labs, and provide the indirect costs universities depend on. But in today's climate—especially with the instability of many federal grant programs—pouring endless hours into resubmitting proposals may not be the most strategic move. At the same time, your publications are what amplify your scholarly voice, shape your reputation in the field, and ultimately strengthen your future grant applications. That tension between funding and publishing is one every scholar deals with. But what if, for this season, the smarter choice is to lean into writing papers rather than rewriting rejected grants?  Tune in to learn why that pivot matters, how to balance the relationship between grants and publications, and why prioritizing papers right now may be the best investment in your academic career.

Episode Summary:  Have you ever felt like heaven was quiet? I have too. In this episode of Sunshine in the Middle, I open up about what it means to make room for personal revelation—especially in a world that constantly pulls at our time and attention. From a playroom full of toys to a kitchen chair where I work and study, I've learned that any space can become holy when we dedicate it to connecting with God. I talk about how the Spirit led me to study spiritual gifts for an entire year, how laundry time became sacred for a friend, and how acting on even the smallest promptings can change everything. I also share quotes from President Nelson and other leaders that inspire me to stay faithful, especially when answers don't come right away. If you've ever felt stretched thin or unsure how to receive divine direction, I hope this episode helps you pause, reflect, and ask: Where can I find God in my life right now?

In this episode, I dive into the hidden emotional labor of leadership, sharing stories from my own life—both at home and in professional settings—to explore how leaders, especially women, navigate the delicate balance of awareness, empathy, and action.  I reflect on moments when stress and frustration threatened to derail me, and I show how cultivating self-coaching and grounding practices can help turn emotional turmoil into clarity and calm.  If you've ever felt the weight of others' emotions in your work or questioned how to stay centered while guiding a team, this episode offers both validation and practical insight into leading with presence, perspective, and poise.

Today, we're excited to speak with Alexandra Buffalohead. Alex is from the Sisseton Wahpeton Oyate and is the Director of Communications and Partnerships at the Native American Community Development Institute (NACDI). She's also an artist, curator and musician. Alex talks about what drives her work in the nonprofit world at NACDI and how she strives to find a good work/life balance to leave time for her many outside pursuits. At 15, she was a disinterested piano student when her parents gave her the opportunity to join their blues-rock band Blue Dog. That's when she caught the music bug and has been playing keys, performing and recording with them ever since. As a visual artist, Alex has created works on canvas, paper and in sculpture. She is a curator and has put together shows for Twin Cities galleries that celebrate the voices of today's young and established Native artists. She also talks to us about how important it is to have venues that consistently make space for Native artists to share and develop work.-----Hosts / Producers: Leah Lemm, Cole PremoEditor: Britt Aamodt Editorial support: Emily Krumberger Mixing & mastering: Chris Harwood

Dr. Hogan shares what drew her to the Navigate program after participating in Amplify, and how she used the tools and coaching support to break through perfectionism, release the emotional weight of a long-stalled paper, and publish with confidence.  Whether you're mid-project, mid-semester, or just feeling a bit stuck, Abby's story will leave you reflecting on how to approach your writing with more intention, clarity, and self-compassion.
