Working with a coach can make all the difference when it comes to achieving your goals, both personally and professionally. A coach can act as a catalyst, making the transition to a new phase of life easier and requiring less energy to make that change. Let's work together!

To celebrate international women’s day, I wrote an article for AAPS about how women benefit from being authentic in the workplace. I’ve struggled with this personally, but you can’t belong if you are not yourself. aapsnewsmagazine.org/articles/new-p…

If you have ever experienced burnout, you are not alone. Even happiness expert Dr. Laurie Santos has suffered through it. In this article, she gives advice on how to combat and come out of periods of burnout. time.com/6244601/laurie…

Physicist Dr Jess Wade has added over 900 biographies on Wikipedia! She has written about women, minorities, and LGBTQ+ scientists to ensure there is representation 👩🏿‍🔬👨‍🔬 Jess has organised hundreds of global Wikipedia edit-a-thons and challenges gender bias. #WomenInSTEM #STEM

I’m grateful for a wonderful weekend where all my interests collide, the MAPP Positive Psychology conference was at the University of Pennsylvania Chemistry auditorium. I feel like Madeleine M. Joullié has my back, and she went to Simmons University where I now teach!

What to succeed as a woman in science? Sponsor others - it’s good for you and them. Successful women in science tend to invest in colleagues below them and advocate on their behalf. Susan and I presented this strategy at the recent AAPS meeting to cultivate belonging.

Impactful words by @CarolynBertozzi today on how diversity in her trainees enabled creativity, not playing by the rules, and ultimately the work that built the field of bioorthogonal chemistry. Diverse science leads to better science!
