*Note* I am not an expert in this field. All literature interpretations are from my perspective and does not always reflect the intention of the authors.

I know that we are in the middle of a pandemic and the last thing that we want to talk about is… anything that does not have to do with the pandemic. However, I have something that I want to share. During and after working on my doctorate degree I suffered from depression, anxiety, and PTSD. It was through seeking the necessary help that I was able to gain back control over my thoughts and improve my health.

There are so many people out there who are suffering or have suffered from mental health issues and are ashamed because society is cruel. I hope that by adding this podcast to the collection of people sharing their experiences online I can move the normalization needle to help more people be okay with their diagnosis and seeking the attention that they need.

Even in dark times, choose to shine.

THE RESEARCH HER PODCAST IS OFF OF GRADUATION HIATUS and its time that I give an update on what I have been doing. What is next for me and the podcast... do I know??

Dr. Hareder McDowell is the author of Black Women, Sex & The Lies Our Mothers Told Us. She is a dedicated and passionate woman who has researched, worked and served communities, corporations and educational arenas to ensure that African-American female sexual empowerment and education remains at the forefront of all industries to ensure sexual equality, health, and safety.

Dr. McDowell serves as an adjunct professor of Human Sexuality for National-Louis University, public speaker and civil servant within the Chicago land area. Her non-profit organization P.R.E.T.T.Y. INC. continues to serve as the only partner of Chicago Public Schools, whose baseline curriculum is specific to sexuality and sexual communication among girls and women of color.

With the intense sexual harassment climate in the United States and abroad Dr. McDowell continues to serve as a consultant, speaker and counselor to ensure that corporations, small businesses, organizations, and outreach companies alike are aware of what sexual harassment, looks and sounds like; to begin to change the culture that has led to many of the misfortunes in the workplace and beyond.

As a community psychologist, Dr. McDowell is clear that research must continue to ensure that the underserved and underrepresented will continue to be heard, and serviced. She believes that sexual freedom and sexual communication in all families and communities serve as a preventative method to many of the ill's, abuses, mental and physical diseases affecting many of us.

I had the pleasure of speaking with Mrs. Paige Brown.

Paige and I discussed her experience working as an electrical engineer & why her research interest is now on black women who pursue electrical engineering as a career. We even got into how she balances being a wife and a PhD student who at the time was pregnant with her beautiful baby. She also gets into the motivation behind her book Conqueror: A Black Woman's Guide to Conquering Challenges in the Workplace, where she shares her work experience and helps you learn how to conqueror the workplace.

—— ABOUT PAIGE ——

Mrs. Brown is a native of North Carolina and a graduate of North Carolina Agricultural & Technical State University. She is an electrical engineer by trade but a passionate STEM education advocate and educator at heart.

Her love for working with students led her to pursue her Ph.D. in Engineering Education, where her current research interests involve understanding the experiences of black women in the engineering workforce (fueled by her own personal experiences) and K-12 engineering education of underrepresented minorities.

She plans to continue her work and strive for a greater impact in the field of engineering to provide a more inclusive environment for women of color and minorities.

June 1st was my birthday so this episode is late posting. The love was felt on that day with each individual message. Hearing all of the messages together was so powerful so I needed to share this. All of the encouragement is so necessary right now in my life and I am so happy that I chose to readdress this episode.

Take out your notebooks and pens because GEMS were dropped

Thank you so much for all the love!
