the consciously powerful

a new semester brings on new hosts and new topics! Caroline, our greenhouse manager, and Jess, our digital marketing intern, joined by Wes, the sustainability director, celebrate National Day of Simplicity (July 12, 2021) in honor of author and philosopher Henry David Thoreau. as the new hosts find our "podcast voices," we ponder our own patterns of consumption and offer ways to practice mindfulness.

welcome back to our LAST episode! this was a very sweet bittersweet episode to record but all good things have to come to an end i guess. we brought on two other interns, cam and jess. ashley and i worked closely together with these two ladies this semester and this episode gives you a little peek into what our weekly meetings were like, random and too many side comments from me (gabby) lol. ashley and i are sad (but oh so happy) to go but we know this podcast will carry on strong! thank you so much to all who have followed along and supported us!

p.s. it’s gabby and i got the job ;)

join us for another fun Q & A! ashley and I dive into more questions given to us by YOU. we talk about topics ranging from our favorites of anything at the moment all the way into more sustainable topics! we have just one episode left together so be sure to look out for that one coming your way soon :)

drum roll please… our special guest this week is our boss's wife, Maryam Enterline!! she is a fellow graduate of UW-W in 2012 with a double major in Psychology and Sociology. Maryam still belongs to the UWW community as an employee where she is the front desk supervisor at the Parking Services Office. if she isn’t impressive enough already, Maryam is also the owner and founder of Enterline Designs and an avid adventurer. listen with us as we get to know this amazing lady and spark some great conversation on topics like being a woman of color in sustainability, her lifestyle, amazing advice, and much more.

welcome and welcome back to the consciously powerful! our fourth episode is here so sit down, grab a coffee or your beverage of choice, and learn more about your hosts :) we’re answering a handful of questions of all different topics submitted by our interns, our friends, and our social media followers. thank you so so much to everybody who submitted questions and look out for another episode where we finish off these questions!

back again with Jaida from UW-Whitewater’s BSU student organization. in this episode you’ll get to see what it’s like for a student here at whitewater who is in an e-board (chair position) in Black Student Union. Jaida opens up about what projects she’s working on, why this org means so much to her, what she hopes it can do for the students on campus, and a little bonus round of questions she answers at the end!

we’ve added a little disclaimer to the end so be sure to keep an ear out for that and i’m sure it’ll get repetitive so you can always skip ahead in the other episodes once you’ve heard it on this one. :)

thank you all so much again for sticking around. see you soon.

wooo, episode 2! ashley and I were violently nervous for this one because Dr. Key is such an inspiration to both of us and our University, so once again, bear with us through the EXTREMELY awkward laughs from me (gabby), weird conversation gaps here and there, and the overuse of 'oh my gosh that's awesome.' overall, we can’t thank Dr. Key enough for sitting down with us, sharing his story, and talking about some really really important topics. we included the link that he mentioned about some great panel discussions so be sure to explore that website.

& don’t forget that if you see something, say something!
