Uppity Women

Josie talks Coronavirus May 04, 2020

Josie is the daughter of one of my closest friends. She was terrified of me the first few years of her life, and it destroyed my heart. Then one day she decided I was okay. So now she's nine, and one of my favorite kids, along with her little sister Jessie. Using three-way calling, Josie and I called a few people we know to ask them about their Covid-19 experiences. This was recorded in April 2020, at hopefully the height of the pandemic and physical distancing. Enjoy the conversations, and a very special thank you to Josie, her mom Amy, Simon and his mom Hilary, Claire and her mom Jill, Zoe and her mom Amy, and Kyle and his wife Laura and dog Taylor. My life is richer with all of you in it!

The Storybook Project, with Denise Chai and Gem Jones Mar 23, 2020

Denise Chai is the outreach coordinator for The Storybook Project of Arkansas. From the website: “Our motto was - and is - ‘keeping families connected through reading,’ ” said project founder Pat Oplinger of Cherokee Village. She started Storybook in 1997 with a few other volunteers from a local church. The original purpose, she said, “was to raise the literacy level of both inmates and their children, thus raising education and self confidence levels and family unity.”

Gem (Undrea) Jones spent about two decades in prison, and she talks to us a little about what got her there, but mostly about what the Storybook Project meant to her during those years and beyond. Also, check out her Facebook page: What About Us? She gives voice to the voiceless.

Susan Curtis--Girl Attorney Jan 20, 2020

Susan Curtis is an attorney in Oklahoma who is the founder of Girl Attorney, LLC. Each state has its own Girl Attorney Facebook page, where we can discuss legal questions, procedure, local court practices, good and bad experiences in the legal field, and anything else we want. It's been a great resource for me, and I have been impressed that we keep the posts almost entirely law-related. Girls just wanna be professional! Susan also puts on GALCON, a national leadership conference for women attorneys. Check it out in the links below.

Zara Abbasi-Chef, Friend Dec 09, 2019

Zara Abbasi Wilkerson is lots of things, and still deciding who she is. Of course, who we are changes during our lives. In this conversation, we discuss Zara's young life moving around every year or so and how it has affected her. We talk about how she became a pastry chef, why she stopped being a pastry chef (for the public), and what she's doing now. We also discuss her motivation behind starting a private group of women who are looking for friends with whom they can share common interests.

What a conversation! I just love learning new things, especially about humans. SCIENCE! Tharwat is a wellness coach who digs into what's going on in our brains and bodies to figure out the roots of our problems, hangups, insecurities, anger, whatever we've got going on. I have always been interested in the why of everything. Why do I feel stuck professionally and in personal relationships? What can I do about it? We barely scratched the surface in this conversation, so I look forward to many more. Check out the links below for some of the things we mention.

Do You Feel Like a Fraud? (BUY LOCALLY IF YOU CAN!)

“Travel is fatal to prejudice, bigotry, and narrow-mindedness, and many of our people need it sorely on these accounts. Broad, wholesome, charitable views of men and things cannot be acquired by vegetating in one little corner of the earth all one's lifetime.”

Grant Tennille-Economic Development Nov 04, 2019

I needed hours to discuss with Grant Tennille all the things on my mind related to economic development. As the former director of the Arkansas Economic Development Commission, he has some things to say, too. We focused a lot on Little Rock. How fantastic it is and what needs improvement. There's a lot of both!

Brian Parker, Synthesis Guide, Medium, Healer, Teacher Oct 28, 2019

I truly don't remember what inspired me to find Brian, but it was a combination of things, including a conversation with a friend about mediums. So I went to the Murderino Paranormal Society Facebook page and asked about mediums. The responses were plentiful, but I settled on Brian Parker. I enjoyed our conversation, and I felt very comfortable talking to him. Have I moved from curious skeptic to believer? Not really, but I'm always open to the idea of there being things we don't yet understand. I am also open to the idea that our brains are wondrous things that help us believe the unbelievable.

Alese Stroud is a badass. She has been in the tech world for decades, starting when she decided to teach herself coding to be able to do what she wanted, the way she wanted. Because THAT'S WHAT WE DO. Alese and I met at Blue Sail Coffee at the Tech Park in Little Rock. There's a lot of background noise. Sorry. But you'll get used to it. This episode may be a little much for anyone not interested or somewhat well-versed in Startup World. But midway or so, we start to talk about women in this milieu and the challenges we face--from funding, to getting appropriate attention for our ideas, to creating a more equitable ecosystem. I hope you enjoy. #UppityWomenUnite

Dr. Julie Trivitt, Professor of Economics at UA Jul 08, 2019

Dr. Trivitt and I had a not-long-enough talk about some of my economics questions. I try to understand the different systems and ways in which economic policy differs, and how it affects most of us. I still don't really understand, but not because of this professor! I'd love to hear your questions and ideas based on this episode. Send them to me! In the meantime, enjoy this conversation.

Music: As Promised, Daryl Shawn

How economists think about the economy:

1-What are we going to produce?

2-Who gets what's produced?

3-How are we going to produce them?

4-How does the system incorporate changes into the system?

5-How do we promote growth and progress?

Also...

1-Who owns the resources? The private sector or the government?

2-Who decides how the resources are used? Private allocation or government?

What is called resignation is confirmed desperation. From the desperate city you go into the desperate country, and have to console yourself with the bravery of minks and muskrats. A stereotyped but unconscious despair is concealed even under what are called the games and amusements of mankind. There is no play in them, for this comes after work.

Michelle Barnes-Real Images Feb 25, 2019

Michelle Barnes is the founder of Real Images. From www.realimages.org:

Michelle's vision for Real Images formed in 2006 when she saw that young girls didn't have many positive or healthy images of women in the media. In 2007, she began conducting self-image workshops for teenagers and facilitating empowerment workshops for young women. She finally decided to make her passion wide spread when she founded Real Images in 2014. Michelle is a native of south Arkansas. She has a Bachelor of Sociology and a Master of Public Administration both from the University of Arkansas at Little Rock.
