The #InVinoFab Podcast

Lessons Learned: @InVinoFab + @Telesomm Collab

@LauraPasquini & @ProfPatrice — Mon, 13 Dec 2021 00:34:05 +0000

Patrice and Laura have learned SO much. We are so grateful for Telesomm to join us on this collaborative podcasting adventure for season 6 of #InVinoFab. We know there is a story in wine, but these past few episodes were a great reminder. We truly enjoyed sharing and showcasing the #SommStories – we thank y’all for listening and being in community with us this year.
BOOK a Telesomm Sommelier for your next friend/family gathering or team event!

Learning from the somms of Telesomm:

There IS storytelling in wine!
You don’t have to be a somm in a restaurant or vineyard -- many ways to somm
Cost vs. quality -- it doesn’t always matter
How to be brave when you taste wine
Wine is everywhere => regions of wine: Durham, NC, Detroit, all over Italy, Sonoma, etc.
You don’t have to be “fancy” to enjoy wine -- let’s take the snobbery out of wine
Travel with a bottle of wine (figuratively or literally)
To learn wine is a personal journey a
You don’t have to be an expert, you just have to taste, try, and be BOLD!
Your taste in wine is really the only taste that matters!
Being a sommelier sounds like fun – maybe we want to go down this path ourselves!?!
There’s no one way to be a sommelier – choose your own adventure in wine
We love to partner with others on fun podcast projects – want to collaborate? Reach out to us: invinofabulum@gmail.com

@Telesomm Wine Pro-Tips with Katarina

@LauraPasquini & @ProfPatrice — Thu, 11 Nov 2021 04:00:00 +0000

We hope you got a taste for Italian wine, travel, and learning about the wine world from Katarina in her Telesomm #SommStory -- for this episode we hope you learn more from this wine pro, as Katarina answered the following questions:

Favorite pairing food and wine?
If wine was not what you were drinking, what would be in your cup?
What is your pet's favorite wine
What are your top 3 wines and what does that say about you?
A sommelier pairs well with_________. [Fill in the blank]
What do people get wrong about being a somm
What are you known for on the app?
What do customers ask you about?
What can a customer expect from a wine tasting with you?
What's the difference between Chianti & Chianti Classico?

"I don’t think there is one kind of wine to like. I think everyone can like wine. Everyone doesn’t need to be super knowledgeable about wine. It’s also important to just like wine. I don’t think you have to describe wine according to these parameters that have been constructed all these years.” ~Katarina Andersson, Grapevine Adventures

We just learned so much from Katarina's Q&A we couldn't help to take a few tasting notes:

There were so many amazing Italian locations and vinos we talked about on this #InVinoFab episode, here are a few tasting notes:

@Telesomm Wine Pro-Tips with Christopher

@LauraPasquini & @ProfPatrice — Thu, 04 Nov 2021 04:00:00 +0000

Wine-Pro Tip from @Telesomm Christopher: When it comes to drinking wine in general, I hear people say I can’t drink red wine because the sulfite gives me a red wine headache but they’ll grab a bottle of pinot grigio or Chardonnay. My knowledge bomb is white wines have more sulfites than red wines. If you get a headache from red wine it is probably not the sulfites. Maybe learn about Mega Purple.

For this quick Q&A, here are the questions our Telesomm wine pro, Christopher, answered:

Favorite pairing food and wine?
If wine was not what you were drinking, what would be in your cup?
What is your pet's favorite wine
What are your top 3 wines and what does that say about you?
A sommelier pairs well with_________. [Fill in the blank]
What do people get wrong about being a somm
What are you known for on the app?
What do customers ask you about?
Does it matter if wines are labelled organic or biodynamic?
What can a customer expect from a wine tasting with you?

“My card says I am a sales representative, I consider myself a storyteller. It’s been very nice to be able to make a living off of telling stories and imbibing in some of the best products in the world."

@Telesomm #SommStory: Tesh Diyal, Wine With Tesh

@LauraPasquini & @ProfPatrice — Tue, 19 Oct 2021 04:00:00 +0000

Tesh Diyal’s roots in hospitality can really be traced back to his mom. His restaurant experience however, started from his time working at Morton’s the Steakhouse. Tesh moved on to other restaurants in California, including Piatti, Ella Dining Room and Bar, and then he graduated to become the Sommelier at the Kitchen for almost 4 years. Tesh then transitioned into wine sales to focus on growing his family, and after a year of selling wine to restaurants, he found himself furloughed due to the pandemic. That leads to now! Tesh is excited to put wines in front of you, your friends, and you family that you may not have or even known about before! His goal truly is to bridge the gap between good people and good wine!

@Telesomm Pro-Tips: Q&A with Vanessa Raymond

@LauraPasquini & @ProfPatrice — Thu, 07 Oct 2021 06:00:00 +0000

We're going to be asking a whole lot of questions about wines for the Telesomm sommeliers on season 5 of the pod, so we thought we'd try out a few on the Telesomm app founder, Vanessa Raymond. Turns out -- she's learned a lot working with the community of somms on her app. Here are the questions we tried out and what we learned from this Q&A round.

Questions:

What food and wine pairings are you really hyped about now?
If you were to pair wine with music what would you pair?
What's your epic fail food & wine pairing story?
Tell us about the last time a wine took you on a sensory journey
Using an emoji, what describes your approach to learning wine?
When you're tasting a wine, how do you taste it? What's your process?

Answers:

Favorite food and wine pairing: pulled moose & Chenin Blanc bubbles. Wondering how to make pulled moose?
Wondering what that is and where you can get some of your own?
Ella Fitzgerald with Chardonnay
National Chardonnay Day (May 21). More information on international wine days.
Looking for some dried fish for your own epic food pairing, or make dried fish yourself!
Carricante Italian Wine
Trying out Hungarian and Bulgarian wine
Emoji for Wine Tasting: 🕵
Imagine the color of the wine you are tasting -- before you jump to a specific fruit, taste, etc.
Vivino app -- track the wine you're tasting

Episode #94: Returning to the Office

@LauraPasquini & @ProfPatrice — Mon, 17 May 2021 06:00:00 +0000

In this #InVinoFab episode, Laura and Patrice talk about what it means to return to the office. In the US, vaccine rollout is happening and there has been talk about returning back to campus. For some there is excitement and others returning to work brings anxiety and dread and there are employees who are not interested in returning as offices open back up. Here’s what we are thinking about as we consider a shift from remote work to in office or a hybrid model of working:

Questions to ask yourself and your team as you transition back to the office or some version of this:

What are you thinking about returning to the office?
What will being “back on campus” mean to you and your team?
What did you learn from this year of remote work?
What habits or practices do you want to bring back to the workplace?
How are you preparing yourself and your team to make this transition?

Episode #90 REPLAY: Career Sponsors

@LauraPasquini & @ProfPatrice — Tue, 20 Apr 2021 00:45:14 +0000

For #InVinoFab episode no. 50, Patrice and Laura discuss a few articles related to sexism in the academy and how we can better support career planning for women. Being strategic about your own career path might help women move forward. We discuss mentoring vs. career sponsor. It will be critical to find a career sponsor to get you towards your tenure goal for academia or to climb your own career ladder at work.

Episode #88: Working It Out

@LauraPasquini & @ProfPatrice — Mon, 05 Apr 2021 06:00:00 +0000

On this mini-episode of #InVinoFab, Laura and Patrice talk about working it out -- literally. This episode is to share how they have converted part of their home to effective workout spaces, and what it means to stay fit with a community and the benefits of working out.

Here are a few of the things we mentioned that’s in our home gyms:

Soul Cycle + Bike
Bowflex C6
Aaptiv app
Rubber Flooring Gym Mat
HIIT Workouts with Julie Ferrer - Hometurf
Yoga with Adrienne
Dumbbells: 3, 5, 8, 10, 15, & 20 lbs
Kettle bell: 30 lbs
Resistance bands & flexibility bands
Rumble Roller

How are you staying fit at home? What’s in your personal gym? How are you building a local/virtual community as you work out?

Episode #87: Introducing the @YearsEd Between the Chapters Podcast

@LauraPasquini & @ProfPatrice — Mon, 29 Mar 2021 06:00:00 +0000

In this Between the Chapters episode, the the 25 Years of Ed Tech, Laura talks with Laura Gibbs, Brenna Clarke Gray, and Caroline Kuhn about Chapter 9: The Learning Management System (LMS). The panel of this episode rejects how the LMS is not “linky” and how closed LMS constrains both the learner and educator from engaging online. But we also caution against how this LMS hub has grown since 2002 in its role for digital teaching and learning for higher ed institutions to also expand into a repository for data collection, learning analytics, and surveillance. Listen to our metaphors and meanderings about the LMS, and what we’ve been thinking about thanks to Martin’s chapter #9 in the 25 Years of Ed Tech book:

Ed-Tech Specialist Fights Proctorio Lawsuit
In Defence of Ian Linkletter by Brenna
Defend Linkletter: https://defend.linkletter.org
A Teach-In Against Surveillance
Paulo Freire: the pioneer of critical pedagogy
Constructivism: Listen to Between the Chapters #
Surveillance Capitalism

What did Hannah Arendt really mean by the banality of evil?
Silvia Federici: Women, Reproduction, and the Construction of Commons
Jakob Gowell: Syllabus-as-Metaphor
Opening up the LMS Walled Garden
Coronavirus Is the Perfect Disaster for ‘Disaster Capitalism’
- The Shock Doctrine by Naomi Klein
Words for the LMS: cautious care, strategic use, resistance, transparency, awareness

Questions:

Where do we put the resources needed to actually use the LMS?
What are the metaphors should we collect and dissect around teaching & learning?
Do you think the LMS is a best practice? Or how do you push against that idea?

Episode #86: Grief is Good

@LauraPasquini & @ProfPatrice — Mon, 22 Mar 2021 06:00:00 +0000

In this #InVinoFab shorty episode, Laura and Patrice talk about grief. Grief is that internal processing that we might all experience for the people, places, and lives we’ve lost over the past year. What does it mean to hold space for grief?

Although this might be a tough topic, we think that finding meaning for loss is important. It’s OK to Grieve for the Small Losses of a Lost Year:

Finding Meaning by David Kessler
The Bravery to Say Goodbye (ft. Marisa Renee Lee‪)‬
Growth After Trauma by Richard G. Tedeschi

Your relationships grow stronger
You discover new purposes in life
From the trauma you find strength
Spirituality is deepened
Renewed appreciation on life

Episode #74: 'Tis the Season...

@LauraPasquini & @ProfPatrice — Mon, 28 Dec 2020 04:00:00 +0000

‘Tis the season… to feel burned out. Fa la la la la -- la la la la!

In the last #InVinoFab episode of the year, Patrice and Laura share how 2020 has been SO MUCH. We talk about making time and space to reset, recharge, and find some down time or quiet space. With so much care and compassion we put into our learning design, we talk about ways to offer support for colleagues and peers who might be struggling with the overload of 2020 for the work and the invisibility of it all. We chat about how we will reset during our time out of the office and what we’re giving gratitude for before we close out 2020. Happy end of year, y’all. We made it!

Episode #73: On Pandemic Parenting with @_SueCaulfield & @Kristen_Abell

@LauraPasquini & @ProfPatrice — Mon, 21 Dec 2020 04:00:00 +0000

For #InVinoFab episode no. 73 Laura chats with a couple of moms and past guests, Kristen Abell & Sue Caulfield, about their experiences this year with COVID-19. We discuss the reality of being a mom in the pandemic while trying to maintain a balance between work and life at home. Thanks to Sue & Kristen for sharing their candid perspectives about being a mom, identity shifts, expectations of their role, supporting mental health, and more when dealing being a mom in 2020.

Beating Pandemic Burnout

“People parent in different ways. Just like people live in different ways, and that’s totally fine because diversity is good.” ~ Sue

“The problem is we keep trying to systematize the workplace, rather than individualizing it… we aren’t just our jobs. But so few workplaces are built around people, they are built around the work. That’s’ what makes it so hard for us to adjust right now.” ~ Kristen

Parenting in a pandemic advice from Kristen & Sue:

Set your boundaries: for both work and home life.
Reset boundaries & check in with these limitations to take back control.
Negotiate your time/schedule with your employer - WFH, flexible hours, etc.
Ask yourself: What in your life is exhausting you & filling you up more? Find more energy
Practicing gratitude: pause to reflect on what you are grateful for these days.
Stay “in community” with those who support you and you also can support with real talk.

Episode #72: On Finding Your Identity & Calling with @carolak

@LauraPasquini & @ProfPatrice — Mon, 14 Dec 2020 04:00:00 +0000

In episode no. 72 of #InVinoFab, we are joined by Caroline Kuhn for a conversation of what it means to be “in transition” throughout our personal and professional lives. Caroline shares her interests in what shapes students’ reflexive engagement -their agency- with more sophisticated digital practices in research-rich contexts. And from her experience and background, we learn why she is thinking more about how we craft and construct the spaces we engage in -- for digital learning, work, identity, family, making “and vs. or” decisions, and finding your calling.

“Who am I? What do I want?” ~@carolak asked these questions to find her own identity

Episode #70: The Anti-Racism Journey with @Kristin_Roe

@LauraPasquini & @ProfPatrice — Mon, 30 Nov 2020 04:00:00 +0000

In this episode of #InVinoFab, Patrice and Laura are joined by a repeat guest (ep. 31), Kristin Roe, to talk about anti-racism education. We get real and talk about what diversity, equity, and inclusion work is -- and how to talk and really dig deeper into these issues. Instead of blaming the system or structure or event, we discuss how we recognize how our own whiteness, power, and privilege is only reinforced on the regular. This episode is not meant to be a checklist, but a way to challenge all of us to “get in shape” to have these awkward conversations. Some of the anti-racism work is not just a checklist, book, or training -- get comfortable with getting uncomfortable, get ready to reflect and unlearn, fumble & stumble as we move from education into daily practice and action.

Episode #69: Supporting Minds Online and Hearts Offline with @MDMillerPHD

@LauraPasquini & @ProfPatrice — Mon, 23 Nov 2020 04:00:00 +0000

Back in April Laura was joined by Michelle Miller for a conversation for the #InVinoFab podcast to talk about how online teaching, learning, and life looks like. Much of this discussion has a great deal of relevance for where we are as we enter into the 2nd and maybe 3rd wave of COVID-19. We discuss how to deal with finding our productive selves, identifying feelings how our work life has changed, reflecting on going “online” + family/personal impacts, support/needs for moms, how to be less “remote” and the hobbies/reads that bring us joy.

Episode #68: Care @ Work

@LauraPasquini & @ProfPatrice — Mon, 16 Nov 2020 13:00:00 +0000

In this #InVinoFab episode, Patrice and Laura unpack what it means to bring care to work. Burnout and emotional labor has been something we’ve been having to deal with over the past few weeks, months, and year(s). As the US elections wind down and the pandemic lockdown restarts here, we thought it would be good to talk about how we deal with burnout and care in the workplace. Will this culture of care we are seeing now at work be sustained? How are you supporting yourself and others to avoid burnout? It’s definitely a time for some real talk, and figure out what care means for us and our peers.

Here are a few things mentioned on this episode:

Hysteria episode: “Clapping & Crying”
Shout out to all who supported this election + the folks at VoteSaveAmerica.com
Now Is a Good Time to Take Care of Ourselves episode from HBR’s Women at Work
Stuck-At-Home Moms: The Pandemic's Devastating Toll On Women
Throwback to 2017: ‘Ugh, I’m So Busy’: A Status Symbol for Our Time
NPR Life Kit: How To Harness The Power Of Emotions In The Workplace
Future of Work Trends via Gartner
Post-Election Therapy with Esther Perel via Sway
Going Back to Work episode from HBR’s Women at Work

Are you a mom who is struggling with all the pandemic has thrown at you? Do you want to talk with us on a future episode about the realities and realizations for your personal/professional self? Reach out -- we’d love to have a conversation and have you on the podcast!

Suggestions for implementing care into your workplace:

Regular 1:1 meetings
Group/Team Check-ins (not a meeting)
Planned socials or events virtually
Making time and the space to talk about things beyond tasks & routines
Block time off to do things you need: eat, walk the dog, exercise, etc.
Take control of your calendar
Find joy with your peers
Reminder to take time off -- staycations FTW!
Find time to step outside
Move yourself -- walk, dance, run, yoga, or whatever!

Stories (TV & Books) Mentioned:
- No Hard Feelings

Cheers!

Episode #67: Season of Transition

@LauraPasquini & @ProfPatrice — Fri, 06 Nov 2020 20:18:57 +0000

Welcome back, #InVinoFab friends and listeners! We are glad y’all are tuning into the @InVinoFab podcast, as we talk about the season of change we are in… yay for transitions!

This episode was recorded in mid-October, so we are not talking about any political transition or evolving events. There’s actually a lot that is changing in our own lives and a reason why we have not put out an episode in a while: Our season of transition includes: changing jobs, moving houses, how we work, and what it means to be remote, but not so distant or in-person meetings with the people and communities we love. Here are a few things we talked about in this intro the the season episode:

Microsoft & 20 Major Companies Remote Long-Term plan
Mary’s Place (transformed Amazon space)
Women in the Enterprise of Science & Technology (WEST) organization
Why Zoom Fatigue is Real… And How to Combat Zoom Fatigue
Table Topics
Coach Training
The Artist’s Way

We hope to talk about a few issues this season and we’re welcoming new guests! Do you want to talk about any of these issues? If so, let us know!

Burnout & Compassion Fatigue
Moving to Remote Work, Teaching & Learning
Endings: Are you graduating soon? What now?
Job Search & Hiring in a Pandemic
New Jobs & Leadership Responsibilities
Onboarding in Remote Working Times
Future Plans: Dreams, Goals, & Retirement
Antiracism Education
Learning
And of course, wine!

There’s been a bit of radio silence from us on the #InVinoFab for a while, and that’s been intentional. We wanted to spend the last month listening, learning, and unlearning -- so you didn’t need to hear from us. Both Patrice & Laura want to make space and amplify other voices. We can learn so much from others and we want to be candid in how we show up and look at “feminism” more broadly in our personal and professional lives.

A few reflection questions we are thinking of these days:

What memories do you have about what your family taught you about diversity?
What childhood experiences did you have with people of different cultures?
What does it mean to think of feminism when it is paired with gender identity, sexual orientation, class, race, economics, culture, and more?
How are you thinking about equity and inclusion lately?
What are you doing to impact or change any privilege you might possess?

On #InVinoFab episode no. 64 we are joined by Cordelia who shares her lived experience navigating transition in her personal and professional life. We discus identity, visibility, and trans workplace inclusion.

Cordelia does assessment in the higher education space. As a part-time Ph.D. student, she hopes to research at the intersections of employment and the trans identity. As a trans woman herself, Cordelia navigates the world as a digital native hoping to breathe some authenticity into an oversaturated space! She is Sagittarius sun, Gemini Moon, and Aquarius rising and is looking for your input on her charts! Cordelia enjoys video games, DnD, and a nice Rosé!

We had a deep talk about what it means to transition and the impacts it has on you personally, professionally, and socially. I am grateful for the real talk and open conversation on what it means to actualize yourself as a woman. We discuss privilege, loss, career search, individual expectations, the “norms” in society, and her personal lived experience as a trans woman in the world today. And, we are reminded that: “Visibility is a person’s own journey.” ~ @SheCordelia

Episode #63: #CovidCampus: Doing the Best We Can to "Go Remote"

@LauraPasquini & @ProfPatrice — Tue, 17 Mar 2020 06:00:00 +0000

On this @InVinoFab episode we bring you a timely conversation in light of the evolving situation and events due to the Coronavirus. We have a digital roundtable all about going remote, that is, what it is like to transition to remote teaching, learning, students support, and work in higher education with @ Katie__Linder, @jeffjacksonTX, & @bonni208. Based on the issues we are all facing to prepare, we decided to come together for a purpose to reflect and share about the state of things and how college and university institutions might prepare as they shutdown face-to-face operations and encourage everyone to move online. We talk about a range of plans, support, and strategies to be implemented and how we are “doing the best we can” as COVID-19 impacts our campus communities.

Advice to take care of yourself, family & work team:

Take a walk or go for a run
Get outside for fresh air
Keep a full-nights’ sleep & rest
Meditation: Apps to try? Calm, 10% Happier (free), & Headspace
Eating healthy
Get silly & social with those at home
Clean your house
Ask who needs help – childcare, tech support, etc.
Read books
Relax from your typical routines
Keep to your fitness routine
Enjoy the quiet/down time now
Just breathe
Show gratitude

How do you ensure your remote plan to go digital is accessible and does not exclude anyone? This might be remote teaching, learning, student support, or work for your staff/faculty. How are you preparing for these potential barriers and needs to accommodate your campus stakeholders?

Closed captioning for Microsoft Streaming for Teams

Phone tree system with team to check-in, share information, & answer questions
What if Someone Gets Sick: plan & design courses 1 week ahead of time; set up a buddy or “on call” system
Email: Online teaching with the most basic tool from @tanbob

We are thrilled to welcome Dr. Katie Linder to episode no. 61 of the #InVinoFab podcast. Katie is an avid writer and researcher with a passion for process and peeking behind the scenes at what it takes to be a successful academic. She is the creator of the You’ve Got This podcast and blogs weekly at The Academic Creative. Katie’s most recent book is Going Alt-Ac: A Guide to Alternative Academic Careers. Currently, she serves as the executive director for program development at Kansas State University Global Campus. Katie is also a Certified Coach through the International Coach Federation. You can learn more about Katie’s work at: https://www.drkatielinder.com/ and connect with her on Twitter @Katie__Linder.

In this episode, we talk about transitioning to a new role, new organization, and all the fun things about the onboarding process. Here are a few things you should expect and/or plan for during your own “job start up” when you launch yourself for into a brand new job that is not similar to one you may have held before:

Expect to meet with a lot of folks -- meet & greets, team meetings, and/or 1:1s
Get to know your peers, colleagues, team, and others who you will work with
Create your own “social network” of who you meet and how you they relate to your team/projects (with pictures to help you remember)
Establish systems and ways you will work -- your workflow might change, so figure out how you will work at your new job/office/role
Know your work spaces and opportunities for where you will get the work done, i.e. the physical space in your office, building, etc. where you will get the work done
Consider how you will sync your personal/work priorities-- consider merging systems or digital methods to optimize/organize your calendar, meeting notes, tasks, and/or events
Seek out ways to get onboard BEFORE you start AND what you will be learning the first day (orientation), first week, first month, and the first 3 months
Ask if there is an HR checklist or onboarding task list for who you should be meeting, what you need to learn about, and all the administrative/HR paperwork you need to get started at your new place of employment.
Hopefully your supervisor/organization will establish ways to learn about the new company/campus, your unit and role, and the projects your team/you will be working on
Find (or assign, if you’re the boss) an onboarding buddy or mentor to help guide your new employee through their transition process to ask questions, get advice, etc.
Establish ways you will regularly (weekly) touch base with your supervisor and team -- how will you communicate, check-in, and work?
Show your super powers at work: Remember that YOU are hired to bring your expertise, talents, and skills to the table (psst… it’s WHY you are the new hire!)

Just take it one step at a time, because sometimes that's all you can do.” ~ @Katie__Linder’s advice for being on the job market or in transition.

@LauraPasquini & @ProfPatrice — Fri, 31 Jan 2020 06:05:00 +0000

On #InVinoFab episode no. 56, Laura & Patrice start the new year talking about moving to a new city and finding friends as an adult. Patrice moved to Boston, and Laura is packing for Seattle -- so they chat about how pack/move, find new friends and get connected, and what it means to relocate to a new city.

Packing & Moving House Advice:

Get a dumpster & downsize your life - Marie Kondo your life https://konmari.com/
Ask for help -- set yourself up with a moving support system. This includes sorting, cleaning out, donating, packing, organizing, and more
Donate housing goods to shelters and other places => suggestions
Books - donate to your library or sell back Half Price Books, online, etc.
Transfer of your medical, dental, vet, and other records -- this might happen after you find your new providers; bring with or ask about the transfer of these records

MeetUp.com - Have you joined a MeetUp group? Tell us about it!

-Book clubs, hiking, foodies, STEM interests, taste wine, and more!

-Pro Tip: Save the name of your new friend in your mobile with the name of the MeetUp where you met them. :) [especially if you’re super social like, Patrice]

Meet others based on your interests: books, professional development, animals, and more!

Silent Book Club https://silentbook.club/

A Novel Concept: Silent Book Clubs Offer Introverts A Space To Socialize via NPR

-Shut Up & Read + then talk. :)

Ukulele MeetUp, perhaps?

Seattle Freeze -- is this actually a thing? Laura will find out.

Over the past few months, the #InVinoFab podcast has episodes with candid conversations @LauraPasquini had with career changers. We are grateful for the women who shared stories about career transitions, pivots, and/or paths to and from higher education.

2. Align your career with your personal and professional values.
3. Build your community and expand your connections to support.

5. Consider how your collaborations and creative ideas can shape your body of work.
6. Assess, know, and play to your strengths to find ways to kindle your passions in work.
7. Reflect on the “things” (the verbs) you enjoy doing daily: activities, tasks, and projects.
8. Always be learning and be a curious learner throughout your working life.

It was a delight to chat with Echo for episode no. 51 of the #InVinoFab podcast with Echo. Dr. Echo Rivera is here to help you become a more engaging presenter. She has a PhD in Community Psychology, and after about 13 years of working in the social science research and program evaluation fields, Echo became a freelance communication consultant.

She works specifically with academics, researchers, and evaluators who want to present their information in ways that increase the likelihood the audience will pay attention to, understand, remember, and use the information.

We were given some homework for #InVinoFab from our guest Tara Hughes, who you may have heard talk about Imposter Syndrome on ep. 45 (if you have not heard it, you should: Invinofab – Episode-45-facing-imposter-syndrome-with-tinytara)

We were asked a critical WINE question, that we decided needed some research for a proper answer:

Q: What is up with wine in cans? Is this just a fad? Does it impact the taste/flavor of the wine?

A: Apparently this wine in can trend has been on the rise over the last few years -- and it is one to stay. There are multiple reasons why you are beginning to see wine in cans: portability, sustainability in production/shipping, light-weight container, recyclable, beach-friendly or for on-the-go activity.

Canned WIne Comes of Age www.winespectator.com/articles/canne…e-comes-of-age

Suggested Wines to Try www.delish.com/food-news/g252282…est-canned-wines/

Caution: Some of these canned wines do have residual sugars, which will make them taste fruitier and some have a tingly finish, similar to a carbonated drink.

Episode #45: Facing Imposter Syndrome with @TinyTara

@LauraPasquini & @ProfPatrice — Fri, 20 Sep 2019 06:00:00 +0000

For #InVinoFab episode no. 45, we talk to Tara Hughes about an issue that you may have struggled with one in your professional life -- Imposter Syndrome! It’s become a passion and ongoing project for Tara who has been asked to give presentations on the topic. The response has continued to be incredible and emotions have risen in her work; however, Tara shares how she currently still grapples with her own Imposter feelings. We have no doubt that others will be able to relate to this topic.

Want to declare your imposter syndrome and connect with Tara? You can find her on:

LinkedIn https://www.linkedin.com/in/tara-hughes/
Twitter https://twitter.com/tinytara

We discuss the role of shared services and information security on campus, #ImposterSyndrome, and career pathways for working in IT in highered. If you are a minority in the room or field, like in information technology, how do you bring your full self and diverse perspectives to the table? We talk about the reality of how to support equity and bridging the services of IT, HR, and Student Services for a campus environment.

For the last of the #InVinoFab podcast series on #CareerChangers (those who have pivoted, transitioned, or moved into a new career role, industry, or occupation), Laura chats with Carol Hernandez for episode no. 43. Although Carol is currently a senior instructional designer at Stony Brook University’s Center for Excellence in Learning and Teaching and instructor in the Higher Education Administration Master’s Program there -- her previous career was in news reporting and journalism. Prior to working in higher ed, Carol was a reporter and editor in daily newspapers around the country and even won a Pulitzer Prize when she worked at Newsday in New York as part of the news team that reported on the crash of TWA Flight 800. As a doctoral candidate in Organizational Leadership Studies her research looks at the work of educational developers through a critical race theory lens, specifically to understand the lived experiences of Latinas and Hispanic women working in the higher education space. For fun, she likes to run, do yoga, and she is secretly a big comedy nerd. She is also a mom, wife, and devoted cat lady.

“Every day I walked into the building, I knew that something was going to happen, it was going to be new, and I was going to learn something new.” ~ Carol Hernandez as a curious learner seeking out the perfect career fit.

We talked about the transferable skills between journalism and education, and identified how to remain current and engaged in both industries. As a curious person, Carol has a love for wanting to learn more. We chat about design for learning, organizational theory, and cultural impacts for professionals for the fastest growing populations of online students - LatinX women. Here are a few things mentioned on the pod you might want to check out:

Organizational theory I recommend: Edgar Schein’s Model of Organizational Culture (Quick overview: https://www.toolshero.com/leadership/organizational-culture-model-schein/) -- here are the skills you should consider for each level to identify about the new organization you are joining if you are just starting at a new job:

How does the organization show pride? What visible objects, items, artifacts, etc.?
What are the values, mission statements, goals,and values the organization claims to be part of who they are?
What are the basic underlying assumptions? You need to be a good observer - listen and watch how others behave in practice.

--We talk about the importance of cultural fit in episode no. 41 with Jaimie Hoffman: https://soundcloud.com/invinofab/episode-41-student-success-in-online-learning-with-jaimielhoffman

--How do you make others feel seen and acknowledged in your organization?

“Being able to connect with others in another language is a strength.” Carol reminds us to use all of our strengths to support the work we do.

On #InVinoFab episode no. 41, we chat with Dr. Jaimie Hoffman (@JaimieLHoffman) who is the Director of Student Affairs and Learning for Noodle Partners where she works with campuses across the nation to create ecosystems of support and engagement that are inclusive of online master’s and doctoral students. Prior to this role, Jaimie served as a full time and adjunct faculty member teaching primarily online courses. For the first 15 years of her career, Jaimie served as a student affairs professional and leader helping student affairs units leverage technology for learner success and mentoring students. Jaimie spends most of her free time wrangling (I mean ... raising) her 3 and 6 year old but also loves CrossFit, traveling, and crafts. Follow her work and connect with her on:

LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jaimielhoffman/

In our conversation, we talked about a few things related to career pivots, specifically around culture, fit, and to think about how you best work. There are so many things about how we work on and off campus these days, including remote work, virtual teaming, and making connections with peers when you are a distributed organization.

“When you’re thinking about the job you’re going to do and how you’re going to spend your days -- you do need to think about what will you be doing during the day and what brings you energy?” says @JaimieLHoffman

It was an interesting perspective on how the transition to a campus partner is like from leaving the campus. We talk about the opportunities to innovate and challenge the norms of how we think about student success and learning in the digital age, and what it means to do this work in higher education from the corporate sector. And we chat a bit about professional identity, values, and interests for career opportunities.Here are some links and resources:

Episode #40: Gender Equality in Higher Ed Work

@LauraPasquini & @ProfPatrice — Wed, 21 Aug 2019 13:40:00 +0000

What Are Your Solutions for Gender Equality at Work in Higher Ed?

In episode no. 40 of the #InVinoFab pod, Laura & Patrice reflect on hiring, promotion, and performance reviews in our workplace settings. As both are working in higher education, they share a bit about how to make gender equality is a solvable problem in our work in higher education-- as we listen to the recent episode of the #Solvable Podcast: Episode - Gender Equality in the Workplace IS #Solvable https://www.rockefellerfoundation.org/solvable/solvable-video-series/gender-equality-workplace-solvable/

Gender #Equality in the #workplace is #Solvable. By shifting the narrative around women in the workplace through changing policy and attitudes, @Katja_Iversen argues that we can end the gender gap in corporate #leadership.

How to remove the gender biases from hiring, promotion, and performance reviews in higher ed:

Establish a diverse perspective on your hiring committees to review the job description and review candidates
Be intentional with the job requirements -- what is necessary, needed, or preferred?
Remove the name and/or identifiers of the individual off the job application
For applications, instead of asking for a CV or Resume, ask the candidates to solve a problem related to the professional role and job itself
Performance reviews should establish professional goals, learning opportunities, and ways for growth within the role/workplace
For interviews, ensure there are a specific set of questions for all candidates so they are comparable; it’s more than just a bit of a chat
Structure into the merit and talent acquisition process
Create metrics to measure performance/talent to remove the charismatic, confident personality in the interview

Unconscious bias research:

To move away from stereotypes related to gender
We need to fix the structures -- not just more mentoring, training, etc.
Merit structure and how performance is measured
Meet the need of family issues and considerations for working
Work-life flexibility for all to help eliminate the “mommy” track or other biases

Episode #39: Assessment & Learning with @ValerieHeruska

@LauraPasquini & @ProfPatrice — Fri, 09 Aug 2019 11:00:00 +0000

For episode no. 39 of the #InVinoFab podcast, we’re joined by guest Valerie Heruska. Valerie lives by the words of the great philosopher, Bruce Springsteen: “You can’t start a fire without a spark.” As a fellow native of New Jersey, herself, Val has been impacted and inspired by Bruce to find her own spark by trying new things and igniting her own passions in life.

Valerie is a higher education professional based out of Buffalo, NY. She holds a Bachelor’s degree in English from Penn State, a Masters degree in Higher Education Administration from George Washington University, and is currently completing a Master’s Certificate in Instructional Systems Technology from Indiana University. Besides learning, her other interests include hiking with her dog, Jersey, exploring State Parks, baking biscotti, experimenting with new coffee flavors, and hopes to one day travel to Italy to become a certified barista.

We talked about finding out where your strengths fit in the world of work, and how she made the leap from living on campus to working in assessment for campus evaluation. Val shared about her process of informational interviewing, getting peers in the ed tech industry to review her resume, how to highlight/connect both experience and transferable skills, and identifying an organization that shares her interests/values for creating a culture of assessment. It was fun to hear about Valerie’s career pivot, lessons she’s still learning, and her fun laugh. We hope you enjoy our conversation, and we’ve left you a few bits and pieces from our chat:

Episode #37: Indie Research with @DrHelenKara

@LauraPasquini & @ProfPatrice — Fri, 26 Jul 2019 11:00:00 +0000

In #InVinoFab podcast episode no. 37, we are joined by @DrHelenKara to talk about her work, life, and experiences with indie research, comics, and more! Helen Kara has been an independent researcher since 1999 and writes and teaches on research methods. She is the author of Creative Research Methods in the Social Sciences: A Practical Guide (Policy Press, 2015). She is not, and never has been, an academic, though she has learned to speak the language. In 2015 Helen was the first fully independent researcher to be conferred as a Fellow of the Academy of Social Sciences. She is also a Visiting Fellow at the UK's National Centre for Research Methods. Her latest book is Research Ethics in the Real World: Euro-Western and Indigenous Perspectives (Policy Press, 2018). You can find more information about both of these books here: https://helenkara.com/writing/books/

During the episode we learn about Helen’s start to research in urban environments, being a copy editor, and Humanist funeral celebrant. Her windy path to research makes sense as she enjoys getting nerdy to find answers to questions and seeking out to learn more about a topic, problem, or experience. Helen is a collaborative researcher who shares and cares about how she positions herself, the ethical considerations, and creative process that goes into research. It was a pleasure to have a chat with her about her death/dying, being an independent scholar, and how to frame the research we’re investigating -- we hope you enjoy our conversation.

Episode #36: Beyond Diversity & Inclusion Training

@LauraPasquini & @ProfPatrice — Fri, 19 Jul 2019 15:35:00 +0000

Beyond Diversity & Inclusion Training

In this mini-episode of #InVinoFab, Patrice shares about her experience and lessons learned at the Diversity, Inclusion, & Belonging Conference https://dibconference.harvard.edu/ hosted on her campus. We appreciate when our organizations bring a community together to have challenging conversations about diversity and inclusion, but we agreed that a culture of belonging is something we need to embed into our daily practice at work.

--What grassroots initiatives, events, or efforts are being developed at your organization to talk about the complex issues around diversity and inclusion?

--What questions/activities do you put into your meetings to learn about others within your office?

--How are you embedding ways to gain a diverse or inclusive perspective?

--How are you making your teaching, learning, and office materials more accessible with universal design?

--Who might be a helpful resource at your campus, organization, or institution to consider how you might embed diversity and inclusion into your work?

Examples for inclusion and access:

-Share your current music or podcast playlist

-Host a potluck to share a favorite food or dish

-Add your pronouns at the signature of your email

-Use a microphone for presentations or larger meetings

-Consider size and style of font for screen readers

Just a few resources/reads to get you started on the topic of diversity & inclusion:

Episode #35: Learning & Development with @HRGore

@LauraPasquini & @ProfPatrice — Fri, 12 Jul 2019 11:00:00 +0000

In episode no. 35 we warmly welcome Dr. Hannah Gore (@HRGore) to the #InVinoFab podcast. Hannah Gore was invited to join Solera Holdings last year to design and develop their business school, initially launching to 46 countries across 26 companies, it is set to expand to 88 countries by the end of this year. During her 13 years at The Open University (OU), Hannah developed content for circa 10 million learners worldwide on a variety of platforms including Amazon Kindle, Google, and iTunes U. She has also completed an undergrad, 3 postgrads, and her doctorate in engagement in massive open online courses (MOOCs) and subsequent impact on learning design. Her doctorate is the largest published single source data set on MOOCs. She holds the record for being the youngest female MBA graduate in the OU’s 50 year history, and holds 4 international awards to her name. When not working, earning awards, or multiple degrees, she can be found in the kitchen cooking up vegan delights or on trails training and running ultras with her rescue dog Toby.

We had a lovely conversation about unconventional education tracks and surprisingly welcome career changes. With ambition and drive, I was honored to hear what motivates her to live her life to the fullest. I was so excited to have a proper chat with Hannah after following her adventures, of travel. ultra running training, and doggo on Instagram and Twitter. I asked Dr. Gore to join us for the pod to share her experience in transition from higher education (HE) to corporate learning and development (L&D), so we had a refreshing conversation about marathon job interviews, finding your job fit and fulfillment, breaking out of academia, socialist L&D movements, and testing/trying learning design research into training curriculum for the workforce.

“If you don’t fit the mold, if it’s a little bit strange this works for us. At last! My kind of people... I can be weird, and people will embrace it.” ~ Hannah shares how cultural fit works for her career change and how she works.

“It’s not just, will you accept with the culture, but will the culture work with you.” ~@HRGore

“When you create a course it is a narrative, and it is a story and a journey you are taking [the learners] on.” ~ @HRGore

Episode #34: Summer Streaming

@LauraPasquini & @ProfPatrice — Fri, 05 Jul 2019 10:59:00 +0000

Summer Streaming

For episode no. 34 we share some of our summer streaming as you might be kicking back this weekend yourself. Whether you’re enjoying a staycation, kicking your feet up, or on holidays where the weather might be crap, we thought we’d share something for you stream and enjoy on Netflix.

Brené Brown: The Call to Courage https://www.netflix.com/title/81010166

The Myths of Vulnerability (Brene Brown the Call to Courage)

Vulnerability is weakness. (experiences of how you were raised)
I don’t do vulnerability. (everyone needs to show up and be seen when you can’t control the outcome)
I can go it alone. (you need others)
You can engineer the uncertainty and discomfort of vulnerability.
Trust comes before vulnerability -- you build it up incrementality.
Vulnerability is disclosure. E.g. posted to social media (boundaries)

Show up. Be seen. Answer the call.

Episode #33: @GoogleGuacamole Learning in a Community

@LauraPasquini & @ProfPatrice — Fri, 28 Jun 2019 11:00:00 +0000

Laura Gogia, MD, Ph.D. designs, researches, and engages in faculty development for digital learner experiences in higher education and continuing education settings. Before she became the Senior Design Strategist at iDesign and a freelance instructional design consultant, Dr. Gogia was an obstetrician and gynecologist for a rural Virginian community. She received her Ph.D. in Educational Research and Evaluation and her MD, both from Virginia Commonwealth University.

Laura Gogia, MD, Ph.D. designs, researches, and engages in faculty development for digital learner experiences in higher education and continuing education settings. In #InVinoFab episode #33: Laura shares about her “high career thrillist” path as she moves from medical school, to practicing surgical gynecologist, to fusion-style chef’s catering, non-profit coursework, trying out adult education, and engaging in research in evaluation for learning design. We talk about how we learn and figure out how to evolve with our careers, gain new skills, and find our way with community and kinship. I’m grateful that Laura shared how it gets real when you’re trying to transition to a new professional path and you have to interpret how your talents and experiences are transferable. We discuss this shift and what it means to be employable in a job market that is outside of your domain of practice or area of expertise. I’m grateful for how shared her concerns, fears, expectations, and disappointments with finding a job that would be a good fit with her career goals and professional interests. Finally, Laura leaves us with a wealth of learning design resources and considerations from her current role and experiences.

“I was trying to find that community out there to help me with my learning. To make sure I was actually learning what I needed to do. To set my curriculum, to recommend articles, to talk about articles with, to bounce research ideas off of, perhaps do research with them... I was finding my classroom or my personal learning community.” ~How Learning is for Laura Gogia

Episode #31: Just Keep Swimming with @Kristin_Roe

@LauraPasquini & @ProfPatrice — Fri, 14 Jun 2019 19:53:00 +0000

For #InVinoFab podcast episode no. 31, we welcome Kristin Roe to share her story. Kristen is a leader in diversity, equity and inclusion practices within the child welfare sector in Ontario, Canada. She has earned graduate degrees in Adult Education, Community Development and Social Work. It is through the lessons taught to her within grassroots social justice movements that have been the most profound in her knowledge and understanding of inequities in systems and structures. Kristin navigates the world through much privilege but also through the experiences of living with Bipolar disorder. She is committed to sharing her lens of anti-stigma towards mental illness and also in her role as an ally. In her spare time, Kristin has been known to swim large bodies of water for social justice causes close to her heart and is in love with her rambunctious Portuguese Water dog, Dezzy.

“We like to stay in our own systems. and we like to stay in our own silos, and do our work, and figure out our problems on our own...[we need to] come together to do work and learn together through an equity and inclusion lens.” Kristin reflects on a recent symposium to address community divisions and equity needs within our public works.

Episode #29: Behind the Badge with Diane

@LauraPasquini & @ProfPatrice — Fri, 31 May 2019 21:44:00 +0000

Behind the Badge with Diane

This episode is the first of the interview series where I talk with friends and colleagues about their career changes. Our occupational lives are so complex and often the pathway takes many turns due to life, opportunities, challenges, or new ways of seeing your own career. This might be out of personal interest and perspective; however, I will have a conversation with a few women who have left one industry for another role.

In the conversation with Diane, we talk a bit about what goes on behind the badge. Diane is a campus police officer now; however, she has worked in residence life, studied forensic psychology, and talk English overseas. We discuss everything from volunteering, Zumba, policy academy, and resources you should consider for getting into police enforcement as a women. I am grateful for Diane’s honest and willingness to share her successes, challenges, failures, and lessons learned. I learn so much about opportunities to work with the government and other agencies related to law, and Diane reminds us that NCIS or Criminal minds is not the FBI/CIA fully. Much of the career paths and point of entry look different, so we list a few generic ways to learn more about this career path below. I know I am reminded about what life on campus looks like for an officer, the humorous, scary, and typical events do community policing or patrol on a daily basis. In talking about police enforcement, there was some surprising, appalling, and insightful aspects for what women in the academy deal with when entering the field. From this experience, I think listening to this conversation reminds me about how we work with, talk to, and treat one another is so very important beyond work and in society. Also, she reminds us how working in service to the public does take a toll on your physically and emotionally, so we swap resources and ideas.

“If you support me, my confidence builds. If you make me feel like I’m literally less than you because I'm female, then I can’t grow here.” Diane shares her Police Experiences as a Women.

Future plans, goals, and visions for what we hope to work on for 2019. It’s time to reflect on 2018 and start thinking more about what and how to prioritize our future selves before the new year creeps up on us.

On @Katie__Linder ‘s “You’ve Got This” podcast (https://katielinder.work/episode-guide/), Q&A #97 Episode: Vision Statements we were inspired to start thinking visioning what lies ahead in 2019. We borrowed a few of these questions for our #InVinoFabPodmas episode to reflect on 2018 and share what our plans are for what’s on the horizon for 2019:

Which of your superpowers do you want to nurture?
What can you develop to make you stronger, healthier to make you more focused?
How do you create a “flow state” for you? You can just fall into it, lose track of time, and enjoy it.

Things on our visioning list for 2019 include:

- MasterClass Online Courses https://www.masterclass.com/

- Yoga

- Hiking

- Meditation (Headspace https://www.headspace.com/)

- Decluttering Desk/Work Space (KonMari method: https://konmari.com/)

- Maintain a manageable cardio & weightlifting

- Find an Accountability Buddy

What successes are you reflecting on from this past year to plan for future goals & visions for 2019? Let us know.

#InVinoFabPodmas Day 1

On the first day of Podmas #InVinoFab brings to me -- weird wines, cork dork reads, & more!

WOOT! Deals Wine https://www.woot.com/category/wine/all

Laura read: Cork Dork by Bianca Bosker http://www.biancabosker.com/cork-dork/

-A tech journalist decides she wants to become a sommelier in a year and pass the test, this book is about her adventures along the way. This was an interesting read that provided insights into the wine industry, becoming a sommelier, and the intricate world of wine tasting by an amateur. A delight to read if you are a fan of wine and you have ever wondered what it would be like to taste, serve, smell, and deliver vino like the pros. It seems like a lot of work, we should have known, and could do with returning to our first schooling with a sommelier educator from #InVinoFab Episode #14 with Cheryl Stanley -- listen here: https://soundcloud.com/invinofab/episode-14-tasting-wine-cheryl-stanley

Episode #26: The Committed Project with @Kristen_Abell & @_SueCaulfield

@LauraPasquini & @ProfPatrice — Fri, 30 Nov 2018 05:21:00 +0000

For our last #InVinoFab interview episode of 2018, that’s episode no. 26, we are thrilled to chat with a couple of brilliant ladies who are care-fronting mental illness and more in higher ed with The Committed Project. We had a candid conversation with Kristen Abell (@Kristen_Abell) & Sue Caulfield (@_SueCaulfield) about one of their biggest passion projects that is very near and dear to both of them - mental health and wellness. We talk about creativity, side projects, finding a therapists, how to be a resource, care for others and self-care, and more. I appreciate the candor, realness, and conversation... always. I think y’all will enjoy the chat we had with these two rad ladies.

Back in 2015, Kristen & Sue edited the book with #suedles to illustrate a compilation of stories about mental illness in student affairs in a book called, Committed: The Stories of Mental Illness in Student Affairs. Kristen helped with narrating experiences and Sue created drawings (a.k.a. #suedles) that relate to each personal story from the higher education practitioners who shared about their mental illness. From this book project, their work with mental health awareness led to developing the blog series into The Committed Project (https://thecommittedproject.org/), an organization that advocates for and supports higher ed professionals experiencing mental illness. For the past few years, @CommittedPrjct has been sharing stories - mostly firsthand accounts - from other professionals in higher ed who experience mental illness. You are not alone in this, please read the shared stories from your peers in higher ed on The Committed Project Blog: http://thecommittedproject.org/resources/blog/

Kristen Abell is one of the two co-founders of The Committed Project and is the Executive Director of Awareness and Advocacy. She serves as the Assistant Director of Digital Services at the University of Missouri-Kansas City and has been in higher ed for a looooong time, in a variety of roles. She loves to write, and has written extensively about her experiences with mental illness - both online and for the book she will one day publish (she swears!). She lives with the two loves of her life - her awesome husband Sean and her amazing son Aedan, and their small zoo of animals.You can connect with Kristen at kristen@thecommittedproject.org or on Twitter: https://twitter.com/Kristen_Abell

Sue Caulfield is one of the two co-founders of The Committed Project and is our Director of Visual Translation. By day, she serves as the Director of Student Affairs at the Zucker School of Medicine. By night (and sometimes other parts of the day), she is a maker. Her favorite days are spent walking to a local shop, listening to a podcast and getting a good meal with her better half Dan.

Episode #25: Creating an Inclusive Gender Culture

@LauraPasquini & @ProfPatrice — Fri, 16 Nov 2018 13:08:00 +0000

@InVinoFab Episode #25 is a vignette (short podcast) where @Profpatrice & @laurapasquini chat about how to create a more inclusive environment for women on your team, after sharing a couple of articles and discussions from the HBR Women at Work podcast (https://hbr.org/2018/01/podcast-women-at-work) and a couple articles they recently reads

--- 4 Ways Women Can Build Relationships When They Feel Excluded at Work

https://hbr.org/2018/07/4-ways-women-can-build-relationships-when-they-feel-excluded-at-work

--- In Collaborative Work Cultures, Women Carry Most of the Weight https://hbr.org/2018/07/in-collaborative-work-cultures-women-carry-more-of-the-weight

Most cultures/systems were created by men and continue to be heavily dominated by patriarchal traditions. Suggestions for improving identify inclusion part of the values and take a deep look at the culture of your organization, team, or group at work. What we need is more awareness on the topic of a gender inclusive space and consider ways to mentor individuals OR to bring different voices to the table to build rich relationships and group dynamics of support.

LISTEN to: Teaching in Higher Ed Podcast -- hosted by @bonni208

https://teachinginhighered.com/episodes/

Mentioned on the #InVinoFab pod episode:

Don’t assume you can take a list of suggestions and implement them and assume that inclusion will happen.

—Bryan Dewsbury, LISTEN to episode #215 of the @tihighered pod here:

https://teachinginhighered.com/podcast/teaching-as-an-act-of-social-justice-and-equity/

"A lot of institutions think diversity is having a woman, having a person of color, on faculty — but not structural change." ~ Stephen Finley Solid @tihighered episode #214: On Not Affirming Our Values [in #highered] https://teachinginhighered.com/podcast/on-not-affirming-our-values/

Things to consider for hiring and/or supporting for an inclusive gender team at work:

-- Success and support from management is key - how are you leading?

-- Consider needs, wants of all genders. Not enough to to hire, need to retrain, unlearn, and grow as an inclusive group.

-- Be transparent, communicate progress and what work needs to be done. Allow your team members to be part of this process of knowing and understanding what gender inclusion is about.

Is there someone else we should talk to? Do you have a question or issue we should chat about on a future pod? Let us know. We’d love to hear from you about whose story we should share on a future #InVinoFab episode. Send us love, suggestions, and comments to: invinofabulum@gmail.com

Episode #24: STEAM and Makerspaces in Education with Brooke Welch (@esbsteamcoord)

@LauraPasquini & @ProfPatrice — Wed, 07 Nov 2018 19:39:00 +0000

In #InVinoFab Podcast, Episode #24 @ProfPatrice & @LauraPasquini chat with Brooke Welch (@esbsteamcoord) about all things Science, Technology, Engineering, the Arts, and Mathematics (STEAM) and the value of makerspaces in education! Brooke is the STEAM Coordinator for the Dr. Elmer S. Bagnall Elementary School (https://esb-pentucketrsd-ma.schoolloop.com/), a PK - 6 coed public school in Groveland, MA where she manages the school's Makerspace and Maker education. Discover making at Bagnall: https://bwelch3.wixsite.com/innovationstudios

Brooke advocates for a wide range of creativity and giving “voice with choice” in her role in supporting her learners. Besides being a dedicated instructor and innovative team leader for STEAM in her school, Brooke really wants to provide an open space to engage, think critically, and involve her students in hands-on, problem-based learning in an educational makerspace environment. She encourages student to tinker, explore, and become their own expert of a a “passion project” they choose to work in the MakerSpace and steamLab at Bagnall. Here are some of the many things we talked about and shared during our pod conversation:

Why Making? Remember when we were taught hands-on skills, talents, and trades in education -- it’s important to have these inquisitive experiences and tinkering applied experiences can spark curiosity and critical thinking.

“Persistence is huge...I really try to encourage failure and to celebrate failure, because there are so many times that any student or any person is going to fail at something. And to be able to rebound and bounce back from that and try it again -- that’s just a huge skill that we all need.”

Episode #23: Volunteer @ Work: What Is It Good For?

@LauraPasquini & @ProfPatrice — Wed, 24 Oct 2018 04:26:00 +0000

Volunteer @ Work: What Is It Good For?

l office “housework,” such as organizing a holiday party, as well as a much wider set of tasks, such as filling in for a colleague, serving on a low-ranking committee, or taking on routine work that doesn’t require much skill or produce much impact.

Decision Experiment: If someone volunteered, that person received $1.25, while the two other group members each received $2. So every group member was better off if someone volunteered, but the volunteer benefited less. Women were 48% more likely to volunteer than men, and this difference was seen in all 10 rounds of the experiment. Is it because women are more altruistic?

In academia, a survey of 48 Carnegie Mellon faculty, 90% agreed that an assistant professor has a higher chance of promotion if they allocate spare time to research rather than to committee work. That being said, in our institutions, academics (n=3,271) were asked to volunteer for a faculty senate committee, only 3.7% chose to do so — but 7% of women volunteered, compared with 2.6% of men.

In a mixed-sex group, men will hold back on volunteering while women in turn will volunteer to ensure that the task is done. But in single-sex groups, this changes — men and women volunteer equally. In these groups men know they have to step forward if they want to find a volunteer, and women expect other women to volunteer, making them less compelled to do so themselves.

That being said, how might you distribute tasks more evenly at work, on your team, or in your organization?

The difficulty is that we can’t just talk about it, there is no toolkit or one time solution. This topic to discuss the needs to be a continuous learning experience, self-evaluation, and necessary conversation.

Episode #22: Sista Circles Research

@LauraPasquini & @ProfPatrice — Fri, 12 Oct 2018 18:02:00 +0000

In #InVinoFab episode no. 22 we are joined by Dr. Joan Collier and Dr. Marvette Lacy to share about their qualitative research using Sista Circles both as a practice and study. This research approach for a more culturally grounded methodology to understand the experiences of black women graduate students and scholars.

What is a Sista Circle? Historically, coming together and sharing life experiences with other women. A space to be yourself and find support. These are informal gatherings where women get together for emotional care and share their ways of knowing with a core group for conversation and to talk about the topics of the day.

In this rich conversation with Marvette and Joan, we explore the sense of belonging for women in higher education, academia, and more. Issues of power dynamics in doctoral programs and also the messiness of analyzing your own voice when scholars are embedded with your own n research. There’s conversation about black and white feminism, and how we show up differently in this movement and how we should let others know “your slip is hanging.”

Fresh off the dissertation process, we discuss the process of working on doctoral work and how to find meaning through this research process. Not answered, but we talked about the challenges we still need to address in the academy, including but not limited to:

-- How are we mentoring scholars and researchers in a variety of methodologies that are authentic to the learners' experiences?

-- What are the ways your department/institution reward tenure and promotion that consider fostering supportive relationships while advising support doctoral scholars?

-- What are the equity considerations we need to think more about when working with graduate students, professional programs, and doctoral programs for people of color?

-- What are the historically white spaces and structural changes that need to offer support for a broader audiences who are coming to our colleges and universities?

-- Are we seeing our doctoral scholars as people and not just as sources of production?

-- How do you let your learners actually learn and explore their own ways of knowing in relation to how they show up in society?

-- How do we allow students to explore what kind of researcher they want to be?

-- What is your praxis as an educator, scholar or practitioner in higher education? How do you show up at your institution?

Episode #20: Krisstal Clayton on Pedagogy, Prison, and Gamification

@LauraPasquini & @ProfPatrice — Sat, 29 Sep 2018 13:53:00 +0000

Dr. Krisstal Clayton & @LauraPasquini have a great discussion on the #InVinoFab Podcast episode #20 about everything from pedagogy, psychology, prison, and law. Krisstal cares and has compassion for her teaching, field of research, and humanity. It comes across in her university instruction and activism within the prison system. Her openness and willingness to educate others is apparent as she puts so much of herself into her teaching.

Not only did Krisstal share about her own teaching experiences and how it led her to gamification, but she also expressed her own entry into the profession and how being vulnerable with her learners actually engage them in her courses. We talk law school, dental care in prisons, student evaluations, and university teaching experiences.

A few questions that drives her research and teaching is, who does and doesn’t deserve healthcare? What other injustices are within the legal and prison system? What do we get wrong with identity and eyewitness testimonies? Are they accurate? She shared the story of how being a victim of stalking led her to empathize with those who are incarcerated. She wanted to give the perspective of not just the victim, but also the person who committed the crime. She allowed herself to be vulnerable.

“I just try to put myself in the seats of my students, and think about, if you could only learn one thing, what would that be? If you learn nothing else from Psych & Law [course] I need you to learn, that if ever you’re told your under arrest and you have the right to remain silent – you CHOOSE that right to remain silent.” ~Krisstal Clayton

Now some of her research and teaching is among prison inmates and lack of access to dental care the implications of this question go beyond people who are incarcerated. It’s about accessibility, vulnerable populations and who gets to have health benefits.

Kristaal discussed her approach to teaching, classroom management and gamification. She made the important point that gamify doesn’t mean tech. How are we helping students develop their ethics and praxis? We want our students to build a world in which they want to thrive. Nice is different than foundational change.

Episode #19: Mind the Gender Gap - Overworked & Underpaid

@LauraPasquini & @ProfPatrice — Fri, 21 Sep 2018 09:00:00 +0000

Mind the Gender Gap: Overworked & Underpaid

The Gender Pay Gap Was on Track to Shrink in America. Here’s Why It Hasn’t.

http://www.slate.com/articles/podcasts/better_life_lab_podcast/2018/07/the_surprising_reason_why_the_gender_pay_gap_hasn_t_shrunk.html

Youngjoo Cha, a sociologist at Indiana University, shares her expertise and research on overwork and gender. Her research shows that while the education gap is closing between men and women, overwork has all but canceled out efforts to equalize the job market. In fact, the gender pay gap would have actually shrunk by 10 percent in recent decades if not for this phenomenon.

A personal narrative in this pod from an associate professor, Ciannat Howett, about job growth and overwork resonated with Laura:

-pressures and commitment for certain professions and careers

-living in a big metropolitan city with loads of single professional women to moving to the south (Atlanta) where that is not the norm

-Expectations to have a family and challenges in the stressed working environments

-Roles of partners, spouses, parents, child-care, and self-care while developing your career

In thinking of this gender gap, we talk about:

Priorities and pacing your career goals
Support within personal/professional lives
Job culture and fit at the organization
Expectations in defining success - defined by you
Make a choice and own it - no professional F.O.M.O.

What do women have to give up to get ahead?

What does being a successful professional female mean to you?

Episode #18: @KMWMitchell on Gender Bias in Student Evaluations

@LauraPasquini & @ProfPatrice — Fri, 14 Sep 2018 21:04:00 +0000

Laura was introduced to Dr. Kristina Mitchell’s (@KMWMitchell) research at the last National University Technology Network (NUTN) conference back in 2017. Kristina’s study offered findings around Gender Bias in Student Evaluations from university instruction and was co-authored with Jonathan Martin. We were thrilled to have Kristina on the #InVinoFab Podcast, Episode no. 18 to share about her passion for political science, gender equity, international relations, and action films.

Dr. Kristina Mitchell is an Instructor of Political Science at Texas Tech University. Her research interests include pedagogical technique, best practices in higher education, gender and diversity, and issues in international relations. Learn more about Dr. Mitchell’s work and connect here: http://www.depts.ttu.edu/politicalscience/faculty/kristina_mitchell.php

Twitter: @kmwmitchell

The Chronicle article, No More Chili Pepper: RateMyProfessors Ditches ‘Hotness’ Ratings, Dr. Mitchell was quoted sharing part of her gender bias in teacher evaluations:

“What we noticed was that students were much more likely to comment on my appearance and my personality, and to call me a ‘teacher.’ They were a lot more likely to mention his competence or refer to him as a ‘professor.” ~ Dr. Kristina Mitchell

Dr. Mitchell said the language used in the ratings indicated that “we were evaluated on two different sets of criteria.” Comments about her personality or image or her body were being sexually objectified. Kristina said, “Students were looking at me not as a source of expertise on a topic, but either as a barrier to them not getting the grade they wanted because I’m too mean, or as a potential sexual conquest.” This was not a surprise based on her study of research and examination into how learners evaluate women and men differently at the university-level.

Episode #17: The Yellow TALE

@LauraPasquini & @ProfPatrice — Fri, 07 Sep 2018 19:59:00 +0000

Whether you drink wine or not, you might have heard or seen this Australian wine with the label Yellowtail on the bottle. It’s almost everywhere you shop for libations, groceries, and more. But do you know how this vino from Oz flooded the wine markets? Listen to the #InVinoFab episode no. 17 to learn more about the yellowTALE. It’s a story about how a winery from down under expanded their brand worldwide and increased mass production of these animal-labeled bottles. If you build it and you brand it... I guess “they” come.” Just because it’s popular, it may not have anything to do with the actual taste of the wine. We pause to question wine quality, and how this could potentially transfer to the work we do with online learning and scaling instruction in higher education. Take a listen to this tale and share your thoughts and/or experiences with us.

Episode #16: Starting an Online Business with @LadyBossBlogger

@LauraPasquini & @ProfPatrice — Fri, 31 Aug 2018 22:49:00 +0000

In episode no. 16 of the #InVinoFab podcast, we talk to Elaine Rau, founder of LadyBossBlogger.com, who shares insights to what it means to run a blogging business and being a women online in this economy. In our conversation we discuss the risks and rewards for being a female entrepreneur online in today’s murky Internet. We chatted about her experience with starting up an online business from scratch, and what it means to support other women who are interested in establishing themselves for work, advice, and business. Our conversation discussed everything from brand management to our own influences and guidance for women online.

As a Former National Wedding Sales Manager, Elaine Rau lost her brother-in-law, her job, and her home all in one week. Stuck in a third world country with no job opportunities, she had to learn how to make an income online... ASAP. So she spent her last bit of savings and invested in a blog domain: LadyBossBlogger.com. Since it's conception, LadyBossBlogger has garnered a massive audience of 100K in just 1.5 years. It's a platform that helps female entrepreneurs learn how to start, grow and scale their own online businesses and blogs. She has been featured on the Huffington Post, Thrive Global, and over 100+ other websites, magazines and books.

We learned about the work and time it takes to be present online, and Elaine shares how she amplifies other women who are looking to get started with building their digital business. So we talk about how you could monetize online with your blog, Instagram, and more. Elaine shares some of her insights into affiliate marketing and ways to optimize your own digital space for “passive” monetization and ways to earn commission from your online work. Who knew?!?!?

“If you don’t figure out a way to make money in your sleep, you will work until you die.” ~ Elaine Rau

There was a lot of information and knowledge shared in this episode, so we did our best to curate all the good stuff below -- but you can always reach out to Elaine if you have more questions and/or are seeking advice about your own digital venture.

Episode #15: Dessert Wine... How Sweet It Is!

@LauraPasquini & @ProfPatrice — Fri, 24 Aug 2018 11:00:00 +0000

As a rule, however, dessert wine should always be paired with food that is equally or more sweet than the wine itself. Dessert wines should also be served in smaller glasses than table wine because of both the intensity of the flavors and the alcohol content. Often, dessert wine is best served at or below room temperature

“Like gems hidden in a jewelry box!”

Fortified wines are wines that contain alcohol (usually brandy) added during the fermentation process. Because the aim of dessert wine is to be both sweet and relatively high in alcohol, makers of dessert wines are faced with a dilemma. Sugar is converted into alcohol during fermentation. Therefore, the sweeter the wine, the lower the alcohol content and vice versa.

Port is a type of fortified wine traditionally produced using grapes from the Douro region in Portugal.

Sherry originated from the Spanish town of Jerez and only wines made with the white grapes found in this region of Spain can be classed as true sherry. Unlike port, which is naturally sweet due to its specific fermentation process, natural sherry is actually quite dry. Dessert sherry, the type of sherry usually used as a dessert wine, is made by adding a sweeter wine, such as Moscatel wine, to the natural sherry. Serving Sherry - Dessert sherry is traditionally served slightly chilled in a special, tulip-shaped glass called a copita. However, if you don’t happen to have copitas lying around your house, any small glass will do really suited with desserts featuring nuts.

Ice Wine (or Eiswein, as it’s known in Germany and Austria) traditionally comes from wine-producing regions that experience predictable cold spells. (p.s. There are plenty of ice wines in Canada too! http://www.winesofcanada.com/icewine3.html). The name, “ice wine,” derives from the method used to naturally increase the sweetness in the wine: the grapes are left on the vine for some time after the normal harvesting season. When the cold spell arrives, the grapes freeze. This freeze reduces the amount of moisture in the grapes and increases the concentration of sugars, making the resulting wine naturally sweet.

There are 5 different types of dessert wine:

Sparkling Dessert Wine
Lightly Sweet Dessert Wine
Richly Sweet Dessert Wine
Sweet Red Wine
Fortified Wine

Sweet wine descriptions in the languages you might read on a bottle:

Demi-Sec* (‘off-dry’ in French)
Amabile (‘slightly sweet’ in Italian)
Semi Secco* (‘off-dry’ in Italian)
Doux (‘sweet’ in French)
Dolce / Dulce (‘sweet’ in Italian / Spanish)
Moelleux (‘sweet’ for some French wines)

Wine Myth Busting:

Q: Price of Wine - Is More Expensive Always Better?

A: No. More expensive does not mean it is always better. People can be tricked into taste. Drink what you like -- that is Cheryl’s rule. Here’s more about the study she mentioned

Q: To decant or not decant wine? When and why do you decant wine?

A: Yes IF:

it’s a young red wine that is from a moderate to warm climate that would benefit from air in order to soften the mouth feel
If the wine in unfined and unfiltered, it could have sediment
if the wine is old -- it depends on the type of grape: cabernet sauvignon, nebbiolo, merlot, some syrahs, etc. or a pinot that is old might throw sediment so you can decanter to remove the bitter chunks.
If the wine is young and their reds do well with decanting for air, e.g. local Cornell University alumni vineyard: Turley Wines: http://www.turleywinecellars.com/

Episode #13: Q&A: Tribe Of Mentors

@LauraPasquini & @ProfPatrice — Fri, 03 Aug 2018 11:00:00 +0000

After Laura read Tim Ferriss’ (https://tim.blog/) book, Tribe of Mentors (https://tribeofmentors.com/), we thought a fun way to share about this collection of questions and answers similar to how each mentor responds to in the book. Enjoy!

What is the book (or books) you’ve given as a gift, and why? Or what are one to three books that have greatly influenced your life?

Patrice:Lean In: Women, Work and the Will to Lead by Sheryl Sandberg https://leanin.org/book

Radical Candor by Kim Scott https://www.radicalcandor.com/

The Boys in the Boat by Daniel James Brown

Laura: Catcher in the Rye by J.D. Salinger

The Artist's Way by Julia Cameron https://juliacameronlive.com/books-by-julia/

Oh, the Places You’ll Go! By Dr. Seuss

1. What purchase of $100 of less has most positively impacted your life in the last six months (or in recent memory)? Give specifics-like brand, model, where you found it, etc.

Laura: Headspace (app) for mindfulness & meditation https://www.headspace.com/ $96/year

Patrice: Bullet Journal http://bulletjournal.com/ + markers $25-30

2. What advice would you give to a smart, driven college student about to enter the “real world”? What advice should they ignore?

Patrice: Make sure you put the maximum amount you can from your paycheck and your employer’s contribution will match that. Once you take that out, you won’t even know it will just be accruing for our retirement pension.

Laura: Ignore advice from those who think they are an expert. Always be learning. Regardless of your industry/field/occupation or direction of life, continue to learn something. If it’s not at work, try to learn something new on the side to encourage a growth mindset.

3. In the last five years, what have you become better at saying no to (distractions, invitations, etc.)? What new realizations and/or approaches helped? Any other tips?

Laura: Distraction. I’ve been better at tuning out and turning off notifications. I don’t check messages, texts, emails, or any social apps before 11 am or 12 noon on days I’m scheduled to do some deep work. This means turning off push notifications and even removing apps from my mobile devices. I compartmentalize my working spaces physically and virtually to remove the distraction and to focus on things at work. Decide when and how you will receive interruptions before they decide for you.

Patrice: Saying “no” to extra assignments, committees, and opportunities if they don’t align with my own personal goals. Does this ask align with your “north start” or career/life path -- then maybe it is okay to pass on this opportunity. She some goals based on the suggestions offered from the You’ve Got This podcast host @Katie__Linder Q&A episode #69: Are Your Goals Aligned with Your Vision? https://ygtpodcast.com/qa69/

4. If you could have a gigantic billboard anywhere with anything on it - metaphorically speaking to get a message out to millions or billions - what would it say and why? It could an expression, a quote or saying.

Patrice: “Don’t Look Back.” Keep moving forward is not easy to do, but we can fail forward.

Laura: A quote from Margaret Mead: “Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world; indeed, it's the only thing that ever has.” Rely on those around you for support and make the change you want to see in the world.

Episode #12: France Baril - a Digital Nomad & Documentation Architect

@LauraPasquini & @ProfPatrice — Wed, 01 Aug 2018 15:14:00 +0000

France Baril joins us for this episode of the #InVinoFab podcast where she shares a bit about how she became a digital nomad and what her first year as an entrepreneur was like. France is a DITA/XML documentation architect who helps organizations analyze their content and processes, select tools, learn about DITA and/or XML, manage the change process. She is owner of Architextus where she helps to develop supporting material (from DTDs or schemas to XSL transformations). She has a unique background with a BA in Communication from University of Ottawa and a BSc in Computer Science from Université de Sherbrooke. Over the years she has worn many hats from writer/translator to programmer analyst and product manager.

Website: http://architextus.com/

LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/francebaril/

We had a brilliant conversation about how tinkering with computers and codes sparked France’s interest to get into a technical field from an interdisciplinary background in social science and computer science. She managed to push forward on her career journey by ignoring advisors who doubted the future of computers and combined her talents to enter into technical writing. Although this collaboration is more common now, it was cool to learn about her path to becoming a documentation architect. Much of her work is very transferrable to the things we do for teaching, learning, research, and design in higher education. Additionally, we learn about how she left the cold Canadian winters to be a digital nomad living/working in Panama, Mexico, and France. So of course, we talk about virtual work, relocation, and what to consider if you are considering being remote from work for some or part of the year.

“If you have a computer in the house, put it somewhere where every kid can play with it.” ~France Baril

Thinking about a digital nomadic life? Here are a few suggestions: https://www.entrepreneur.com/article/307252

Tips from France on being a digital nomad:

Research Potential Locations: where do YOU want to go? Is it for warmer weather? Do you want to explore another country or part of the world?
Know the Work Laws: This will be of your home country AND the new country you plan to travel and work in. This might impact your passport, visa, residency, or requirements that you have to prepare before you go.
Get Advice from a Professional: Find an accountant and/or a lawyer. Let the professionals manage your local and foreign tax laws so you understand where and how you will keep things legal as you travel for taxes, visa requirements, limitations for length of stay, etc.
Learn About Residency Restrictions: This could be a restriction on the length of stay, if you can get an apartment, or if you or even a required work visa if you are working locally.
Live Local, Be Local -- this might start online with research, but be sure to get OFFLINE to connect and make professional contacts and colleagues to support your work
Culture of Work: Figure out of the work/life balance and lifestyle fits well with your professional life.
Nourish Your Own Professional Learning: Attend conferences, meet up with colleagues, and network with the people you want to learn from who are sharing what is on the horizon for your discipline or industry.

We are grateful that France took a break from her holidays in Portugal to share about her experience at a vineyard during her travels. Apparently we need to book a trip to the Douro Valley wine land in Porto ASAP! There’s a number of women making wine and taking the lead in this vine region.

Episode #11: Poetry Pause: No Sooner

@LauraPasquini & @ProfPatrice — Fri, 27 Jul 2018 20:03:00 +0000

No Sooner by Michael Leunig from the Personal Funeral blog:

http://personalfuneral.blogspot.com/2012/09/no-sooner-by-michael-leunig-mediation.html

“No sooner do you arrive than it’s time to leave.

How beautiful it is, how glorious, yet it’s nearly time to go. So you take it in, you take it in.

And you take a few small souvenirs, some leaves: lavender, rosemary, eucalyptus.

A few small pebbles, a few small secrets, a look you received, nine little notes of music,

and then it’s time to go.

You move towards the open door and the silent night beyond.

The few bright stars, a deep breath, and it really is time to go.

No sooner does it all begin to make sense, does it start to come true,

does it all open up, do you begin to see, does it enter into your heart…no sooner do you arrive than it’s time to leave. Yes, it’s the truth.

And then you will have passed through it, and with mysterious consequence it will have passed through you.”

Episode #9: RBG

@LauraPasquini & @ProfPatrice — Wed, 11 Jul 2018 18:24:00 +0000

If you have never heard of Ruth Bader Ginsburg (a.k.a. RBG), I am not sure what rock you have been living under these days. This vignette of #InVinoFab will give you a quick rundown of relevant resources and links to learn more about Justice Ginsburg’s life and contributions she has made for society. Let’s just say you: “Can’t Spell Truth Without Ruth.”

RBG’s describes her understanding of feminism to be that we all must be “free to be you and me”(Carmon & Knizhnik, 2015, p. 91). Also, I can say that Ruth is one lady that does not give up and DOES THE WORK! After watching the RBG documentary and reading the Notorious RBG book, I am reminded that it takes time, patience, dedication, and strategy to move the needle for feminist issues. As Justice Bader Ginsburg says: “...one doesn’t learn that lesson in a day. Generally, change in our society is incremental, I think.L Real change enduring change, happens one step at a time” (Carmon & Knizhnik, 2015, pp. 60). Additionally we discussed the power of supportive and equal life partnerships that change and challenge roles in the workplace, family, and society.

Here are few RBG & other things we chatted about in this short pod episode:

--How Ruth Bader Ginsburg Became the “Notorious RBG” https://www.rollingstone.com/politics/news/how-ruth-bader-ginsburg-became-the-notorious-rbg-20151027

--The Notorious RBG Tumblr Website: http://notoriousrbg.tumblr.com/

--Notorious RBG Book http://notoriousrbg.tumblr.com/book by Irin Carmon & Shana Knizhnik

--It was adorable to watch RBG see Kate McKinnon play her in an SNL skit, for example: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XhzSd-Kz-zA

--Sheryl Sandberg Says Marry a Supportive Partner. But How Do You Do That? https://www.the-broad-side.com/sheryl-sandberg-says-marry-a-supportive-partner

--Remembering Jill Ker Conway the 1st Female President of Smith College from NPR Fresh Air: https://www.npr.org/2018/06/14/619953256/remembering-jill-ker-conway-the-first-female-president-of-smith-college [Fact Check: Not a 1st female president at Radcliffe, Laura was incorrect in the pod]

--About the documentary -- want to learn more about the doc, listen to NPR’s “It’s Been a Minute” interview that Sam Sanders had with Julie Cohen and Nina Totenberg or read the transcript here: https://www.npr.org/templates/transcript/transcript.php?storyId=610185554

--RBG [Film/Documentary] https://www.rbgmovie.com/ and trailer https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=biIRlcQqmOc

Description from the RBG film trailer:

“At the age of 84, U.S. Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg has developed a breathtaking legal legacy while becoming an unexpected pop culture icon. But without a definitive Ginsburg biography, the unique personal journey of this diminutive, quiet warrior's rise to the nation's highest court has been largely unknown, even to some of her biggest fans – until now. RBG is a revelatory documentary exploring Ginsburg 's exceptional life and career from Betsy West and Julie Cohen, and co-produced by Storyville Films and CNN Films.”

Episode #8: Learning About Viticulture with @TheGrapeProf

@LauraPasquini & @ProfPatrice — Fri, 15 Jun 2018 20:20:00 +0000

In episode no. 8 of the In Vino Fabulum (#InVinoFab) podcast, Patrice and Laura learn all about the world of viticulture and enology with Dr. Justine VandenHeuvel a.k.a. @TheGrapeProf:

As an Associate Professor in the Horticulture Section, Dr. Justine VandenHeuvel is actively involved in both research and teaching. Justine’s research focuses on optimizing flavors and aromas in wine grapes, and improving both the environmental and economic sustainability of wine grape production systems in cool climates and the experiences of women in the wine industry. She teaches several undergraduate courses in Viticulture.

A few items we chatted about in this #InVinoFab episode to read more about:

- Guelph Farmers’ Market (http://www.guelphfarmersmarket.ca/) vs. Ithaca Farmers Market (http://www.ithacamarket.com/)

- Introduction to Wine (HADM 4300) is about wine (not Justine’s area of study/instruction) https://classes.cornell.edu/browse/roster/FA16/class/HADM/4300

“Great wine truly is made in the vineyard…the best winemaker in the world cannot make a great wine from terrible grapes.” ~ Dr. Justine VandenHeuvel a.k.a. @TheGrapeProf

Courses Taught in the V&E Major by Dr. VandenHeuvel:

-Introduction to Wines and Vines (VIEN 1104)

-Growing Grapes and Making Wines Laboratory (VIEN 2205)

-Wine Culture (co-taught with a Classics) (VIEN 2810)

Possible new career options in viticulture:

-Agronomist https://www.agronomy.org/about-agronomy

-Archaeology Botanist http://www.archaeologyexpert.co.uk/botanists.html

Q: What are some key takeaways from lay people that we should be more aware of for wine production and appreciative of?

A: Great wine truly is made in the vineyard. It’s always the winemaker that gets the “rock star” status, not the vineyard manager. The best winemaker in the world cannot make a great wine from terrible grapes. The aromas and flavors come from the vineyard they originate from, the climate, and the different practices within the vineyard.

Q: What types of barriers and/or support did you have as a female who was entering into the world of viticulture?

A: Dr. Helen Fisher from University of Guelph was one of her early mentors in the field: https://www.plant.uoguelph.ca/people-and-places/people/helen-fisher and the support of a growing number of women faculty and vineyard managers who are present

Favorite type of wine(s): Finger Lake Wines http://www.fingerlakeswinecountry.com/ and cool climate wines from Ontario www.vqaontario.ca/

Laura’s favorite region mentioned: Beamsville Bench https://hort.cals.cornell.edu/graduate/degrees-and-requirements/master-professional-studies/

Episode #7: Temperature of Wines

@LauraPasquini & @ProfPatrice — Tue, 29 May 2018 20:34:00 +0000

What the Temp? Does Wine Storage Matter?

Temperature Tips

We have a wine Goldilocks problem. When wine is too cold, you can hardly taste it. When it's too warm, it tastes yucky. But most wine, whether it's consumed at home or in restaurants, is often served at the wrong temperature.

Back in the day, two benchmarks controlled wine service: The temperature of the wine cellar (about 55ºF or ~13ºC) and room temperature (which, in a European castle, would be in the low 60ºF or 15.5ºC). You served your whites at cellar temperature, or maybe chilled in an ice bucket for a few minutes, and your reds at room temperature. Perfect.

To enjoy wine at the proper temperature, you need to act in a counter-intuitive manner: Chill your reds and warm your whites.

RED WINES: No wine cellar or castle, you say? Put your red wine in the fridge for 45 minutes or ten minutes in an ice bucket (fill the bucket with a mix of ice and water for the quickest results). This will bring out the fruit and de-emphasize the tannin.
WHITE WINES: Whites should come out of the fridge for about half an hour before serving, or you should start them at room temperature and ice them for some 20 minutes (or so) to release their bouquets.

Storage Tips:

An average temperature of 10-15˚C (55-60ºF) is fine for long-term storage. But it’s ideal to store wine that you expect to drink in the near future at the following temperatures:

Red wine between 12-19˚C (54-66ºF)
White wine between 8-12˚C (46-54ºF)
Sparkling wine 5-8˚C (41-46ºF)

Avoid temperatures over 25˚C (77ºF) as this risks "cooking" the wine and giving it a raisin-y, stewed character.

Keep wine in dedicated wine fridges or cool places where you can control the temp. A cool cellar or a lightly air-conditioned room can also ensure a consistent temperature.
Avoid temperature shocks – rapid changes from cool conditions to warm conditions can damage wine. E.g. next to the oven, stove, radiator, etc.
A sudden increase in temperature forces the wine through the cork and a sudden decrease allows air in.
No direct sunlight or fluorescent lighting should shine on your bottles. Shaded wine is less likely to spoil.
Store your wine bottles horizontally. Common practice with corks to prevent it from drying out and stops air getting into the bottle.
Don’t remove and replace a chilled bottle of wine too often. Temperature fluctuations will eventually break the wine down.
Once opened red wine does not need to be stored in the fridge but should be consumed within 2 days, while white should go back in the wine fridge and is good for 5 days.

Serving tips:

Decant wine to bring it up to the environmental or ambient temperature -- this is to “allow it to breathe,” as they say.
Use a mixture of ice and cold water to bring wine down to the temperature to its optimal degree.
Consider the shape of the wine glass you’re using. This has a more profound effect than you’d think. [See our In Vino Fabulum, episode no. 3: Wine Glassware: https://3wedu.wordpress.com/2018/04/02/in-vino-fabulum-episode-no-3/]
Pour still wines towards the center of the glass and sparkling wines against the side to preserve the bubbles.
Preserve unfinished wine (if you have that) in the right way - Wine bottle stoppers are can help you keep it fresh (or you can just drink it when open).

Episode #6: Talking Technical Communication with @ToniRessaire

@LauraPasquini & @ProfPatrice — Wed, 23 May 2018 15:42:00 +0000

We are thrilled to welcome Toni Ressaire, a technical communicator, trainer and consultant, to join the #InVinoFab podcast for episode no. 6. Besides working with companies in the software development industry on five continents (we secretly think she’s Carmen Sandiego), Toni shares with us her rather non-traditional uses for traditional technology communication (tech comm) tools. She’s currently working with a team developing innovative tools and methodologies to answer the need for information applied to existing and new technologies, such as virtual reality, artificial intelligence (AI), and chatbots.

Fun Wine Facts:

Vigneron = Winemaker; What’s a Vigneron?
Aperitif = a light drink to have before dinner; something refreshing to enjoy prior to the meal
No such thing as a “wino” ... but maybe this wino term needs to be redefined.
Meals in Italy are lengthy -- so sit back, sip and enjoy the company & many courses!

The Information Energy Conference 2018: https://www.informationenergy.org/

Q: There is a lot of interesting things about your work: you mentioned research and work that is being done to reach an "intelligent" conversation that is more human-like. While it's not your job to create algorithms and natural language processors, you use them in designing bots and I like understanding the technology behind it. Can you tell us about what is going on in research and how educators could better collaborate with researchers in industry?

A: AI is still so far away from true machine intelligence. Chatbots will change the way we work because they can help with things like customer service, allowing humans to have time to do more meaningful work. They can do the rote repetitive work, manage phone calls, answer student emails. Chatbots say what you tell them to say, they are not intelligent or learning deeply. They learn patterns based upon the information they gather. We need to teach chatbots intentions, so we give them the questions and answers. They can learn through Twitter and Facebook conversations. Chatbots don’t have intuition, so they can’t determine when a response is appropriate or not they gather that information to follow dialogue flow accurately. Here are a few chatbot stories http://www.latimes.com/business/la-fi-0325-microsoft-chatbot-20160326-story.html

Q: Are there logic models connected to the chatbots you work with?

A: Toni designs chatbot conversations and dialog flow. She doesn't work with the logic models (more with scripting chatbots), but is keen to learn and she shared about one of the speakers at the conference: Carlos Perez. READ his Medium article: Alpha Zero: How Intuition Demolished Logic: https://medium.com/intuitionmachine/alphazero-how-intuition-demolished-logic-66a4841e6810

Why it failed early, based on logic and newer is based on intuition, alpha zero, gamebot, able to beat logic as it is built on logic
Our thinking is based on intuition
Logic is the layer on top of intuition. Intuition has traditionally been frowned upon. This is interesting as the tendency is to say we make decisions based upon intuition and that this is not as good as logic.
We make decision on patterns based upon patterns

The intuitive mind is a sacred gift and the rational mind is a faithful servant. We have created a society that honors the servant and has forgotten the gift. — Albert Einstein

Q: are there any new ideas or projects percolating for you right now that you care to share? You mentioned an article you recently read about intelligence and intuition, and how it got you thinking about human intelligence?

A: According to the article machines that use intuitive cognition perform better than those that use logic. Traditional thinking tells us that logic is more reliable. This is interesting as some same men think in a more logical way, while women tend to be more intuitive and some people align this with capability to do certain jobs such as nurse vs. coder.

Understand we can’t think in a linear fashion or write, need to be multidimensional like a chatbot
Fun Fact: UNT has a Computational Linguistics, MS degree: https://interdisciplinarystudies.unt.edu/concentrations/computational-linguistics-ms

Q: What recommendations do you have for people thinking about working with chatbots (or, in general, in this field)?

A: These professionals need to be multidisciplinary and be able to collaborate with different parts of chatbot production. It's recommended to not live in a silo -- be sure to partner with other departments, disciplines, or industry partners.

Q: Do women in other countries pursue STEM in greater numbers than US?

A: Toni-thinks that because it is a new opportunity for a lot of women in other countries they are jumping on it. Culture differences?

Episode #5: No Filter #OwnIt

@LauraPasquini & @ProfPatrice — Thu, 12 Apr 2018 21:48:00 +0000

Laura loves the Note To Self podcast and she’s a huge fan girl of Manoush Zomorodi (@manoushz), so it’s no surprise that in this episode she brought the “No Filter” series by @NoteToSelf and NY magazine, @TheCut, that discusses: Why We Need No Filter - Women, Owning It Online #OwnIt - direct link to all the “No Filter” episodes: https://www.wnycstudios.org/shows/notetoself/projects/no-filter/

Tagline: “Why The Internet Is a Giant Mindf*ck For Women”

The “No Filter” series include discussions with these ladies:

-Erica Joy Baker http://www.ericabaker.com/

-Lele Pons (Instagram @lelepons)

-Trace Lysette (Instagram @tracelysette)

-Jasmyn Lawson (Twitter @JasmynBeKnowing)

-Stella Bugbee (Twitter @stellabugbee)

No Filter: Women Owning It Online - Questions

How do you own it? The tagline for this series was almost Why The Internet Is a Giant Mindf*ck For Women. How does the internet mess with your head? How do you mess back?
How do you portray yourself online? We want to meet your digital self. Is she “the real you?” Why or why not?

More to ponder or ask yourself on the topic:

-To Filter or Not to Filter: How do you represent yourself online as a woman?

-Online Impact to Offline Self: Should we hold back from posting or filtering what we post?

-Ego construction: Is this due to the affordances of the medium or platform? E.g. some as for likes, followers, comments, etc.

-Organizing & Community Development: Do you move beyond your bubble or look outside these networked communities, people, friends, family, etc.?

-Projection of self: Is this a performance or projection of how we want to “be” in the world? -Constant comparison to someone or something else -- anxiety, depression, etc.

-Does Age Matter Online: is there a chasm between women of certain age groups for how different generations use and post online?

“Questioning things because we are now acting in a performative way [online]... It’s a reflection of who we are and where we come from.” ~Barbara Kruger

Kruger says these are indicators of who we are in the world, where we live, what we do, who we love, etc.

That being, there is constant decisions being made about what you put online representing who you are. Thankfully we grew up in a way to learn and make private mistakes -- the ones who are not documented, archived, digitized, etc. Yet those who are performing their lives online and being themselves are savvy and more aware. There are such nuanced dialogs about these topics and issues for women online. Let’s not shy away from these complex and complicated conversations for being online.

Episode #4: @bella_velo and the @uncommon_women community

@LauraPasquini & @ProfPatrice — Fri, 06 Apr 2018 18:51:00 +0000

It was so fun to chat with Kelsey Merkley (@bella_velo) during our second #InVinoFab interview -- women telling their stories. There was a wealth of stuff we chatted about and we hope you enjoy listening to the conversation as much as we had chatting:

Kelsey thinks that more women need to be leaders and recognized for the work they do in the open education movement and in education. From biking to South Africa from Canada and building bridges between communities in the global south, Kelsey is always considering what the access and opportunities for learning. We need to encouraging ways to have more dialogue with those who aren’t always at the table/classroom/conference to be cognizant include a voice that is not always heard, specifically to ensure we have access to knowledge and the opportunity-cost that we miss out on by not learning from an audience that is more representative of all nations. How can we learn to solve issues in education from others? How can we offer space for other voices and remove the barriers for learning?

As a former librarian, Kelsey believes in access to information and ensuring knowledge is equitably shared. Some of the open technologies (ahem MOOCs) did not necessarily change the world, but it has gotten her thinking about the user experience and their own digital affordances beyond our North American experience. From the way we structure the web to the content we load onto each page, the digital pathway to accessing information is not the same and there are so many inequities for those learners who might not have the same privileges. Who are we providing learning to? What are the barriers faced when accessing learning globally? Have we thought about these issues in Canada or the US -- when there are remote areas with limited internet access?

Ways we can consider access for women in education and at our conferences:

-Are we offering educational scholarships to women who might not have access?

-Are there funds or scholarships for women to a conference?

-Is there childcare offered at the conference you are attending? Why or why not?

-Are we thinking about ways to make connections at events or conferences? E.g. coffee breaks, morning breakfast, open networking, etc.

-Can we create more spaces to have a chat or engage in dialog? E.g. space in the program of a conference, taking time for open discussions at meetings, etc.

Episode #3: Glassware

@LauraPasquini & @ProfPatrice — Mon, 02 Apr 2018 18:01:00 +0000

Glassware for wine is really all about function and even taste. Is your wine temperature controlled? Do you plan on tasting it after giving it a swirl? Where is your wine drinking happening? Home, bar, vineyard or cottage? Let’s talk shop about the glass that houses your favorite vino.

Practical Tips for Wine Glassware:

Buy only wine glasses you can afford to break
Buy more than you think you’ll need
Never buy small glasses
Buy a glass with an ample bowl-gives the aromas room to evolve. The reason a glass narrows is to force the aromas toward your nose.
Cab/Merlot/Bordeaux-full bowl that tapers at top is best for highly tannic (tannins cause wine to be dry) w/moderate acidity bc it directs wine to center of your tongue. The taste buds for sweet are at the tip of your tongue, with sour on the side and bitter in the back.By directing to the center of the tongue you get the perfect balance of fruit, tannin and acidity.
Pinot/Burgundy have a high acidity with moderate tannin and should be drank from a shorter glass so that the wine is directed to the tip of the tongue highlighting the fruit
Choose a glass with a stem so that you can hold it and not warm the wine by holding the bowl, also so you can swirl it (to get the aromatics of the wine to open up)
Look for a thin rim so wine glides over it easily
Washing wine glasses-use hot but not scalding water so glass doesn’t break. Rinse several times then place upside down briefly, then turn over and let air dry. Polish.
So you want to go stemless with your wine glass? (Because you’re lazy like, Laura). Just put it in the freezer to chill the glass before you pour your drink & set it on a table instead of holding it (to avoid warming up the wine).

Episode #2: @DrAliBlack & The Women Who Write

@LauraPasquini & @ProfPatrice — Fri, 23 Mar 2018 14:36:00 +0000

We are delighted to welcome our first guest, Dr. Ali Black (@draliblack), to the #InVinoFab: In Vino Fabulum [In Wine, Story] podcast! As our first audio-only visitor to the pod, we are excited to share more about Ali’s stories, her work, and discuss being vulnerable in higher education. Ali describes this process of making sense of our lived experiences as a ‘soulful’ experience that has brought joy to her academic life. She highlights the value of ethic of care, gentle writing, and the importance of deep, thoughtful writing work with The Women Who Write. These “wise women” felt empowered to do more, and can be found promoting how to savor slow scholarship, find support, become more self-aware, and stop living “thin lives” in academia with these key principles:

We recognize the joy and pleasure of writing and responding
We listen to our longings to care for ourselves and others
We do not care for the auditing of the academic assembly line
We choose connection
We choose to be different - more ourselves - in academia

Ali shared with us the #3Wedu The Women Who Write Manifesto:

What does it mean to be in one’s wild nature? What does it mean to be a wild women:

“To establish territory. To find one’s pack. To be one’s a body with certainty and pride, regardless of the body’s gifts and limitations. To speak and act on one’s behalf. To be aware, alert. To draw on the enate feminin powers of intuition and sensing. To come into one’s cycles and to find what one belongs to. To rise with dignity and to retain as much consciousness as possible.”

Episode #1: Wine Bible Study

@LauraPasquini & @ProfPatrice — Fri, 16 Mar 2018 00:52:00 +0000

Our Wine Bible Study:

Part of this new #InVinoFab podcast, will dig into a particular issue related to the topic of women, education, or wine. This new series will engage and introduce you to new voices of women in education; however, these shorter episodes will introduce you to wine concepts. This is a sort of a “wine bible study” to help us learn more about the world of vino. We hope these shorter podcast episodes will introduce us (and you!) to random tips, interesting facts, and perhaps little known facts about wine. Here’s the book that got us interested in learning more about the wine we sip:

MacNeil, K. (2015). The wine bible, 2nd Edition. New York, NY: Workman Publishing. https://www.karenmacneil.com/product/the-wine-bible/

[p.s. Karen, if you see this, we’d LOVE to have you on the podcast to chat!]

Today’s #InVinoFab wine #NotSoPro tips:

Have you brought a bottle of wine to your favorite restaurant? You just might be able to bring a lovely bottle of wine to dine with the option of paying a corkage fee - learn more at Corkage Fees for Dummies: http://www.foodandwine.com/articles/corkage-for-dummies
Take a look at the points on the wine. You can find some affordable wine for around 90 points that will offer you some delicious options at an affordable price. A pragmatic approach to using the wine ratings: http://winefolly.com/tutorial/wine-ratings-explained/

Potential questions for a future #InVinoFab pod on the topic of wine:

Why do restaurants mark up the cost of a bottle of wine? Why is it more expensive for me to purchase my favorite bottle of wine
How should wine be stored while you are waiting to drink it? Also, how do I store an opened bottle of wine that is not finished in one sitting?
Why are wine bottles shaped a certain way for different wine varietals?
Why do sommeliers encourage you to swirl the wine?
What type of memories are brought up with different types of wine?
If you make your own wine, how did you get started? How did you learn about the home craft of wine-making? How did you craft your own label for your wine?
What kind of wine and what label would we consider for our own home vintages? [Challenge to Patrice & Laura]

Introducing: The In Vino Fabulum Podcast!

The Women Who Wine, or #3Wedu, emerged as a space for women to share stories and find a community of support over a glass of wine. In the previous 3Wedu ‘happy hour’ sessions our focus was on women’s issues in higher ed.

Based on these chats over wine @LauraPasquini & @ProfPatrice are creating a spin off podcast called -- In Vino Fabulum, which means: "In Wine, Story!"
