Women's Energy Network

Today’s episode features Kim Rodell, President of Upstream Petroleum Management and Chair of the Western Energy Alliance Board of Directors. The latter increases her badassery as she is the first female chair for the Alliance in more than a decade.

Kim talks with Sally Hallingstad, WEN Marketing & Communications Director, about how she landed in the energy industry, even after going to school for criminology. Her experience spans multiple downturns, and we discuss a few tips on how to survive those as well as how to get over imposter syndrome.

One evening while sitting around the proverbial campfire, a group of #WENCO women started talking about Bitcoin and whether or not Bitcoin mining is a real thing. This discussion sparked lots of questions, i.e. do miners really have to sit in a box 24/7? These women wanted answers and decided to record a podcast with someone they knew would have them.

Meet Marty Bent with #GreatAmericanMining, a company whose mission is to mine bitcoin through the development of technology that solves real problems arising from vented, flared, stranded, or otherwise undervalued gas. Marty talks with hosts, Andrea Gross, Upstream Petroleum Management and Shawn Forbes, OG Directory about what Bitcoin is and why he believes it’s the top investment of the future.

In April 2020 we hosted a happy hour that featured four speakers addressing mental health, physical health, career health and financial health. This episode takes time to check in with three of the hosts from that spring event - Susan Nagl, Caley Van Cleave and Christian Ofner. Each woman took the time to remind us of what's important as we head into the holiday season and ultimately, 2021. Take a listen and let us know - are YOU ready?!?
