Mehr An Academic's Life

This podcast isn't about the theory and research we do--it's about our real lives. Join Genesea Carter, PhD in rhetoric and composition, as she shares her personal journey through academia. This podcast is for academics (and the academic curious) who want to have real conversations about academic life--the system, the work, the students, the compensation, the stress, the happiness. If you feel alone in academia, this podcast is for you.

Episode 36. Supposedly, It Is Okay to Rest Cover

36. Supposedly, It Is Okay to Rest

This episode title is a bit tongue-in-cheek, but it's a good reminder that it is okay (and necessary) to rest. This week, I talk about the need for rest as the year wind's down (ugh, don't remind me that 2023 is just around the corner!) and how our prior learning knowledge can create self-beliefs that prevent us from taking the rest that we need. I draw from Susan A. Ambrose et al.'s work on prior learning knowledge in How Learning Works: Seven Research-Based Principles for Smart Teaching [https://www.wiley.com/en-us/How+Learning+Works:+Seven+Research+Based+Principles+for+Smart+Teaching-p-9780470484104]. I close the episode with a few reflection questions about our own prior learning knowledge about rest and work and what we might do to teach ourselves that it is okay to rest.  Happy listening!

Episode 35. Workspace Hacks: How to Lessen Energy Leaks Cover

35. Workspace Hacks: How to Lessen Energy Leaks

Do you know that everytime you are mildly (or greatly) annoyed with your office or workspace, you waste cognitive and emotional energy? I've been trying to force myself into loving working in my on-campus office, and I just ..... can't. And I'm envious of folks who can. But forcing myself to try to be productive and motivated in a space that doesn't do it for me is actually causing me a huge energy leak. "Energy leaks" are the ways in which our cognitive, emotional, and intellectual energy dissipates leaving us tired, frustrated, unfocused, and/or resentful. (And maybe many other emotions.) In this episode, I get honest about my office and workplace energy leaks and what I've been doing to stop the leak.  Happy listening!

Episode 33. Working on my Promotion Materials and Creating an Ebook Cover

33. Working on my Promotion Materials and Creating an Ebook

I am currently neck-deep in promotion material writing/organzing (due September 6), but I was inspired to do a little creative writing with an ebook! In this episode I reflect on how my promotion material writing and the ebook adventure have been retraining my brain away from deadline freak outs and internal criticsm. Without giving away what I've learned, I've found that desensitization [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Desensitization_(psychology)] works really well for me in these particular contexts.  If you want to check out my ebook [https://www.amazon.com/Youve-Got-This-College-Templates-ebook/dp/B0BB92RVYB/ref=sr_1_1?crid=2PQPOBGY62GP6&keywords=genesea&qid=1661896857&sprefix=genesea%2Caps%2C114&sr=8-1] (on Kindle and as a print-on-demand), feel free. This is me-in-action learning new (non-academic) things and practicing not being perfect -- both things I need to keep working on. How am I supposed to learn new skills and retrain my brain away from the imposter syndrome if I don't challenge myself? Happy listening!
