We hunt for the structure of the universe in its ghosts. - Dr. Michelle Francl / In the beginning / In the beginning was the trigger warning: / Prepare for insects. Prepare for words in Latin and Spanish. Prepare for science and other species of the supernatural. Prepare for losses that rewire the chemistry of the brain. Prepare for aging and the way it flays you back to the first cell. Prepare for ghosts. | Copyright 2022 by Sabrina Vourvoulias. Narrated by Roxanne Hernandez.

The Independence Blue Cross Foundation's “Someone You Know,” is a multimedia campaign and outreach program addressing the stigma associated with opioid dependency - inspiring hope in those seeking help with addiction and recovery.

For resources from the IBX “Someone You Know” Campaign go tohttps://www.ibxfoundation.org/syk and for access to the DBHIDS help call 1-888-545-2600. I speak to Sabrina Vourvoulias, the first Senior Editor of Communities and Engagement at the Philadelphia Inquirer about her mission to increase the news organization's efforts to connect with and better represent marginalized communities in the city. I talk with Rashida Ali-Campbell is founder of an organization called Love Loving Love which works to decrease violence and advance academic performance for children. Ali-Campbell was inspired to collaborate with local hip hop artists and the Philadelphia Boys Choir to produce a song with a strong anti-violence message called “Enough.” Here's a link to the video.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u4Il5Uso-0Awww.lovelovinglove.org

TW: Discussion of sexual harassment in the workplace. Dr. Diem approached me about having a discussion about some of the things she has encountered as a woman working in STEM a long time ago. We decided to record a "what would you have done" format for this topic. This episode inspired me to open it up into and ongoing part of this podcast, since it is first and foremost a podcast about women's voices. If you have encountered similar situations, we would love to hear from you. Also, if any women in STEM would like to share their insights using examples of what has worked for them, please comment below. Our goal is to have this be a wide discussion among female professionals, and to create a safe space where women can support each other. Remember to be kind: any disrespectful comments or trolling will be removed and reported at my discretion. Our next book for Episode 5 (to be posted on Tuesday, November 6th) will be Ink, by Sabrina Vourvoulias.
