Description
When NASA's Director of the Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL) Management and Oversight, Andrea Razzaghi, began working at the agency, the sign on the restroom door said “woman,” not “women” — because she was the only woman working in a group of men. In this episode, Dr. Lucy McBride talks with Andrea about the challenges of working as a woman of color in a male-dominated field, and her remarkable journey from engineering student to her current role. Together, they talk about the power of empathy in finding common ground with others and the importance of admitting that even the most successful people struggle with insecurities and stress. They also discuss ways to cope with stress, the connection between mental stress and physical health outcomes, and how to use mindfulness to navigate difficult situations. A new episode launches every Tuesday. Beyond the Prescription is hosted by Dr. Lucy McBride (https://lucymcbride.com/podcast) and produced by kglobal (https://kglobal.com/podcast-studio).
