Date: Feb. 27, 2022 (Season 4, Episode 6: 50 min. & 56 sec. long). Click Here for the Utah Dept. of Culture & Community Engagement version of this Speak Your Piece episode. Are you interested in other episodes of Speak Your Piece? Click Here.This SYP episode is part of an ongoing series about women's history in Utah. It involves a discussion about Dr. Christine Cooper-Rompato's fantastic 2015 Utah Historical Quarterly article, entitled: “Women Inventors in Utah Territory” (Summer, 2015: Vol. 83, No. 3), which draws out the stories of five Utah women's scientific and technological contributions, during the late 19th century. Dr. Cooper-Rompato sums up her article this way: “Despite the difficulties faced in patenting inventions, five women from nineteenth-century Utah were granted patents in their own name. This paper explores the inventions of these women, as well as what can be learned of their lives. It places their inventions in the context of similar contemporary intentions and discusses the heightened interest in women's innovations in the 1880s and 1980s, as evinced by the popular press. Moreover, it argues that the Utah women's inventions were not limited to the domestic realm; rather, they demonstrate the wider cultural and economic preoccupations of nineteenth-century Utah.” Dr. Cassandra Clark details in this discussion the many interesting and innovative ways women worked in 19th century Utah. Contrary to traditional beliefs, women weren't only working within domestic environments. In actuality, women were continuously innovative and essential to their societies above and beyond the domestic sphere. The main argument of this article, as per Dr. Clark, is that while inventions were thought to be a masculine endeavor only, these five Utah women were inventing innovative products, some of which were influenced directly by Utah's territory, that helped improve their lives both in and outside of the home.The heart of this UHQ article explores the shift in Utah's 19th c. society to embrace urbanization and industrialization. Due to this shift, there's a demand for inventions that allow for accessibility to new ways of life, whether that be in industry, entertainment, clothing or leisure. These inventions allowed both men and women to spend less time completing time-consuming tasks within the home, and more time participating in leisure and recreation outside the home. For instance, many Utahns during this time traveled to the Great Salt Lake to soak and sunbathe, new innovations by women enabled both the leisure and safety of partaking in such an activity.Clark concludes in this discussion with SYP host Brad Westwood, sharing how the topic of inventions and patents set the groundwork for the professionalization of scienceh and medicine in the 20th c. These inventions changed the way people interacted with one another and they connected people to public health and the environment in new ways not previously seen. By these inventions, these 19th century women were continuously influential and, quite frankly, essential to their societies which had a great impact on both history and our world today.Dr. Christine Cooper-Rompato, who is the author of the article discussed here, is a professor of English and part of the Religious Studies Program at Utah State University (Logan, Utah). Dr. Cassandra Clark (Univ. of Utah, 2018) was, at the time of this recording, Utah Division of State History's first named Womens' Historian. In early fall of 2022, Dr. Clark became an assistant professor of history at Utah Tech University (St. George, Utah).
Jacqui Phillips discovered at a very young age that she has a knack for making women look beautiful as a makeup artist. She booked her first wedding at the age of 10, and through a series of serendipitous events, eventually toured the world as a makeup artist for A-list performing acts into her adulthood. But Jacqui soon realized that the beauty she was creating in other women through her art was not translating to happiness within. She needed a "reset" outwardly and inwardly, and eventually realized that God is the only "reset" that really matters. Today, Jacqui writes award-winning children's books, has a thriving prison ministry for women, and continues to use her work as a makeup artist to bring out the best in women, not give a mask to hide behind. Here's a bit of what you'll hear in today's episode: -Jacqui's beginnings as a makeup artist and faith journey...04:35 -Differences in the person with and without makeup...10:45 -Jacqui's life "reset" and the resulting life purpose to help others discover the need to reset...14:24 -The action steps Jacqui took to accomplish her life reset..22:30 -What you can do today to get in the right mindset to do a reset...27:23 -Your identity in Christ is the ultimate reset...34:12 -A few stories from Jacqui's prison ministry...40:35 Resources mentioned: https://www.portfoliogen.com/jacquijphillips/556488 (Jacqui's Portfoliogen Account) http://jacquiphillips.tv/ (Jacqui's website) About the guest: Jacqui Phillips is an American celebrity makeup artist, public speaker, and an award-winning and best-selling author.

Her mission and belief are that love and kindness start first with our children to make the world a better place by encouraging personal development early in life. Jacqui Phillips' #1 Amazon Best Selling book 'RESET' is a journey. In 'RESET,' she tackles six problem areas all of us deal with at one point or another: Health & Fitness, Relationships, Finances, Emotions, Appearance, and Faith. But, more importantly, we learn that it is never too early or too late to 'RESET' your life despite setbacks.

In todays episode, Michele Talks about how she designed, patented, and manufactured a childproof vent cover that is now currently available online. A few years ago, when Michele's daughter was just two years old, like most toddlers, she discovered the vent covers. After searching for an answer to her problem and finding nothing, Michele decided that she would invent one.Michele moved to Grande Prairie, AB from BC 21 years ago and never left. She met her husband 10 years ago and they have two beautiful kids. Michele worked in office administration most of her career, and then in 2019 when her daughter was 2 and she was playing with our vent covers, she came up with a crazy idea - what if she invented a childproof vent cover? Since then she's designed, patented, and manufactured a childproof vent cover that sells online. She has recently auditioned for Dragons Den Canada, and would love to get her product into retail stores so it is accessible to more people. Michele believes that if you dream it, you can achieve it.Visit Michele's Website Follow Michele on FacebookFollow Guardavent on InstagramFollow Michele in TiktokFind Total Mom Pitch hereStart Up Canada

Although their careers have followed different paths within the Technology Transfer realm, Jane Muir, Jennifer Shockro, and Jennifer Gottwald all share a common goal of increasing greater diversity and inclusion at all stages of the innovation lifecycle. Motivated by this goal, they founded the AUTM Women Investors Special Interest Group in 2013 and subsequently developed a survey which was used to determine which factors encourage or discourage academic women's participation in technology commercialization. In today's episode, Jane and the two Jennifers share details about the methodology they used for the survey, the demographics of the 168 participants, some of the key findings (including the reasons that women are motivated to enter the technology transfer industry, what women in the industry desire more of, and the barriers to entry), and their recommendations. Their hope is that the recommendations they have come up with based on the findings from the survey will impact systemic change in the technology transfer industry in the near future! In This Episode: [01:10] Introducing Jane Muir, founder of Muir and Associates, Jennifer Shockro, Associate Director of CalTech, and Jennifer Gottwald, Director of Listening at WARF respectively. [03:34] Each of today's guests shares an overview of what their journey into the world of technology transfer has looked like.

[18:41] The number one reason that women took part in technology commercialization efforts, as shown by the findings from the survey and interviews. [19:26] What the survey showed about respondents' knowledge of and participation in technology commercialization training programs and entrepreneurship training programs at their institutions. [20:34] Results from the survey relating to the respondents' understanding of the commercialization process. [21:09] The lack of knowledge that respondents' had around resources targeted specifically at women in the commercialization process (and the two potential reasons for this).
