Fancy Scientist: A Material Girl Living in a Sustainable World
Normally when I do an interview for the Fancy Scientist podcast, it's me interviewing a guest. But for this week's episode, I'm flipping the script and the guest is….yours truly: Me!!You see, last year I was interviewed by my friend and fellow podcaster Andrew Lewin, who hosts the How to Protect the Ocean Podcast. Because I had such a great time chatting with him and my audience has grown so much recently, I thought It would be a great opportunity for you to get to know me more so that you can learn about how I got to where I am today and learn from my experiences and path from traditional research scientist to online business owner in content creation for wildlife careers and science, conservation, and nature education. I have a very unconventional career path with many unexpected twists and turns. For the first 17 years of my career, I went about this career through the traditional research route, but even this choice itself was unexpected. To be honest, I didn't even know wildlife biology was a viable career path until I took a study abroad program in Kenya focused on wildlife management. You'll learn how I stumbled upon this program and why I chose it. From there I participated in multiple internships, got a Ph.D. studying forest elephants, and had multiple postdocs. Andrew and I get real about what it's like to have a lasting career in this field. I talk about the hardships of trying to find a permanent position while working to stay in a place that I loved (Raleigh, North Carolina) and navigating an oversaturated wildlife job market. I truly was shocked by how few permanent jobs I was truly qualified for, how closely job experience needs to match job descriptions, and how competitive the field is, even for people with PhDs. I was told I would not be pigeon-holed, but I was. We spend some time discussing the competitiveness of this career and what I teach students: that finding clarity, being strategic about experience and networking, and improving job applications, are the keys to success through a proven framework that I've now tested with dozens of students. I thought I was going to be a researcher for life, but my journey took me in another direction. The difficulties I had in landing a permanent job after my Ph.D. combined with the science communication experiences from years of postdocing at the North Carolina Museum of Natural Sciences opened my eyes to my true fashion: science communication and career mentoring.I decided to do this through entrepreneurship - something I never thought I would do! As a young girl, I grew up watching my dad run his jewelry business and never wanted that for myself, but over time I realized that I could only have the impact I wanted on conservation and the natural world through opening my own business. Andrew and I have an honest discussion about what it takes to run a business in this field, including the financial pressures and mindset. If you've ever thought about starting your own business or side hustle, which I truly believe is something anyone can do in this field, and to be honest should do, this episode is for you. You'll get my advice on how to get started and earn revenue by teaching your expertise in science and nature fields (or any other area of expertise!). As podcasters, Andrew and I are both passionate about science communication and we take a deep dive into how to effectively communicate science with the public. We talk about how my work at the North Carolina Museum of Natural Sciences, blogging, and public speaking, led me to recognize how much conservation solutions ultimately came down to reaching people and not through studying a species or its habitat (this is important, but not what it going to solve most conservation problems). I realized through studying a critically endangered species that no amount of research on this animal would save this species - rather, the solutions were all economic, political, or related to education. Getting others to care or have behavioral change would have a more profound impact on conservation for most problems and this was a big motivation for my career change.Finally, Andrew and I discussed my work on TV shows, including how I first appeared on Science Channel's What on Earth through a professional connection, and then later joined History Channel's The Proof Is Out There after producers found my YouTube video explaining why “black panthers” aren't present in the U.S. I go over what it's like to prepare for filming a television, how often it happens, and what I've learned about what audiences find fascinating when it comes to wildlife and nature, like bigfoot and other cryptids - a total surprise to me! Whether you are a new friend here to the podcast or a longtime listener, this is a really great episode to get a behind the scenes look at what I do professionally, as well as what it's like to be both a researcher working many different kinds of jobs in the wildlife profession. More specifically, I reveal:How I went from a straight career path of wildlife research to founding and running my own businessWhy a Kenya study abroad was a pivotal moment for me when I realized wildlife biology was a real careerMy Ph.D. research on forest elephant social behavior and using non-invasive genetics from their poop to study social structureHow saturated and competitive wildlife conservation jobs are, even with a Ph.D.Why alignment between your experience and the job posting matters so muchThe biggest reasons people don't get interviews (and what to change in applications)How investing in yourself can affect follow-through and resultsHow I started my own business in 2020 and ways you can generate revenue through an online businessWhat it's like to do science communication on TV and how I landed roles on the Science, History, and Discovery channelsHow being a scientist is similar to being an entrepreneurMy advice for anyone considering a side hustle or online businessAnd MORE!Dream of being a wildlife biologist, zoologist, conservation biologist, or ecologist?

In this solo episode of the Everyday Business Problems podcast, Dave Crysler tackles a classic leadership question: is it a people problem or a system problem? Drawing on stories from his early days in leadership and recent client work, Dave unpacks why what looks like a “people issue” is often a symptom of broken or missing systems. From unclear expectations to a lack of tools and accountability loops, this episode explores what leaders can do to avoid jumping to conclusions and start building better outcomes. What You'll Discover: Why most “people problems” are actually system problems in disguise. A practical 3-part test to determine whether your team is set up to succeed. Common traps leaders fall into, like vague feedback and avoiding hard conversations. Real-world stories of both overreaction and inaction, and the costly outcomes of each. How to create clarity, consistency, and accountability without overcomplicating your operations. Why investing in your team doesn't just mean hiring better, it means building better systems around them.
Bringing new ideas to life at work shouldn't feel like pushing a boulder uphill. But too often, it does.Leaders say they want innovation. Teams try to deliver it. But without the right conditions, innovation at work stalls. Mismatched expectations, siloed communication, and rigid structures can quietly kill momentum before anything new has a chance to take hold.In this episode of Let's Talk, People, Emily is joined by Jessica Begley, Chief Operating Officer (COO) at Very, a fully distributed IoT company, who has cracked the code on turning bold thinking into real execution, to unpack what innovation really looks like day-to-day, and how leaders can create the right environment for new ideas to gain traction. They explore how to pitch ideas, get buy-in from leadership, and build a team culture where experimentation and accountability can coexist.Whether you're trying to lead change, drive innovation at work, or simply make your ideas stick, this episode offers practical leadership strategies to influence up, reduce friction, and make meaningful progress.Timestamps: [00:04:42] Creating the conditions for innovation – Emily and Jessica discuss why so many good ideas stall in organizations, and how leaders can create the right environment for innovation by fostering psychological safety and beginning with the end in mind.[00:14:10] Getting leadership buy-in – The conversation turns to influencing up, including how to pitch ideas in a way that aligns with executive priorities and how to clarify what “innovation” actually means to different stakeholders.[00:23:37] Balancing execution and experimentation – Jessica shares how to build systems that allow teams to move fast while still making space for experimentation, and how to operationalize innovation without burning people out.[00:33:58] Leading change from the middle – The episode closes with insights on the unique role that people leaders can play in leading change from inside the system.

As a group practice owner, it's easy to assume your struggles are about hiring or team dynamics, when what's really needed is some honest reflection and strong leadership training for teams. In this episode, I sat down with leadership coach, Adrian Koehler to unpack what's actually going wrong in many therapy practices: leadership mistakes that no one wants to talk about. Adrian and I get into the real reasons leaders get stuck, why “being nice” isn't always kind, and how your discomfort might be costing your business. We bust some major myths about leadership, and Adrian shares what therapists-turned-leaders need to know if they want to grow a team that's healthy, honest, and aligned. Here's what we cover in this powerful conversation: The #1 blind spot that leads to the most common leadership mistakes - and how to start fixing it today What to do if you've given someone too many chances and it's starting to hurt your team (spoiler: it's not just about writing a PIP) Why great therapists often struggle as leaders, and how to overcome that disconnect with the right leadership training for teams The truth about radical candor, “ruinous empathy,” and how these hidden habits damage team culture How to ask yourself one simple (but daring) question that reveals how to improve as a leader in your group practice Whether you're leading a small team or managing a growing staff, this episode will challenge how you think about leadership - and how you show up for your people.

We tend to treat people problems as if they are all different and require different solutions for each situation. But in today's episode, I'm going to make the case that every people problem you face -- whether it's a resistant teacher, a toxic culture, or a broken relationship with your team -- are all different versions of the exact same problem: A lack of Alignment. And, I'm also going to show you how the solutions we've been taught to apply -- writing people up, having tough conversations, working on the relationship, etc. -- won't solve these problems. However, there is a solution and I'm going to break it down in today's episode. By the time you're done listening, you'll know how to stop wasting time dealing with these type of challenges one-by-one and apply the ONE solution that will solve them all #LikeABuilder.

The media trying to pin Trump down on abortion shows that we don't have a politician problem, but a people problem, and our solution is to start fixing the culture. Happy Birthday, US Air Force. Background checks just to purchase ammo in blue areas. Losing an F-35. The reason we never see any DINOs(Democrat RINO) is because the communist will primary them if they don't see results.

Interior designers, home stagers, and organizers, if you're overwhelmed with work in your business — client work or internal work — you might not need to hire another person. Perhaps you just need better processes and some automation. Perhaps you're spending too much time doing things that don't even need to be done. (At all. By anyone.)Or, it's also possible that the tasks you're doing really do need to be done, but would be better done by someone else so that you can stay in your zone of genius, doing what only you can do.Yet another possibility is that your current team dynamic isn't working. Perhaps your design assistant isn't as capable as he or she needs to be. Maybe you spend too much time babysitting your assistant instead of delegating to them.Maybe you would love to hire another person (or your first person) but you aren't sure which position to hire first, how much to pay them, where to find them, or how to train them. Meanwhile, you run around like a headless chicken in your business, trying to wear all the hats and be all things to all people…and it's slowly killing you. Wouldn't you love to know where to find the next person your business needs in order to grow? And wouldn't you be even more relieved to know that your hiring needs could be satisfied just by adopting better systems and processes? If you are concerned that a lack of processes or people is holding back your business from the success you know it can achieve, you won't want to miss this episode. I'm talking with Jessica Harling of Behind the Design about all things people and processes.

In this episode we're joined by our dear friend and fellow competitor, Dave Munnings. Dave travelled all the way from England to visit us for some Agility training, so we captured him for a few podcast episodes! We met Dave years ago while competing overseas at the Agility World Championships & due to our similar humour PLUS our views on dog training & agility, we connected almost immediately. It was no surprise we were also on the same page when it came to people's "Attitude" in Agility. We talked all about the many situations where someone with a negative attitude can affect you whether it be at a class or competition. We also talked about the different mindsets that allow for optimal learning and growth as a handler. We shared some pretty great stories too! There is no holding back on this one! Enjoy!

This week on Dirt Talk, Aaron Witt and Alex Horton are joined by Dirt World “Expert” Eric Jumper. Eric complains about not getting paid after working at BuildWitt for two years (editor's note: this is not true) before the guys address internet trolls who complain that every video Aaron posts doesn't show every step of every process, people putting RAM-NEK in the back of an excavator to warm it up in the cold months, and the time Eric brought 10 feet of sewer pipe into the BuildWitt office. Later, they answer questions about how Aaron should be approached in public, now that he's famous (editor's note: he absolutely hated this question), and how, after the People Problem, material shortages might be the Dirt World's next colossal problem. Stay Dirty!
