Howdy, howdy bug lovers! Today's show is part two of our series on women in entomology. 

In this episode Jody has 4 guests she speaks to individually, May Berenbaum, Karen Walker, Marianne Alleyne, and Rebecca Schmidt-Jeffris. They represent a different sectors of our science, different time points in careers, and different passions for insect science. Tune in to hear their stories and perhaps understand a little bit more about the challenges that women have faced in science and issues we all still need to work on.

Arthro-Pod Episode 41 Find Your Why with Kristie Reddick


Howdy, howdy bug lovers! On today's episode we step back from entomology a bit and talk with Kristie Reddick of The Bug Chick about framing "your why". If you are a student or are struggling at work to keep slogging through a difficult time, thinking about why you are doing what you are doing can sometimes help get you back in the flow. As Kristie says in the episode "what makes us go, can help us grow." 



After you sit down and think about your "why" for why you are on social media, why you do research, why you like insects, share it with us on Twitter with #mysciencewhy
