Conversations That Deserve Attention

Season 5 starts.

Season Four - Never happened. It remains as a season of silence in honour of my friend and guest Sarah, who died during season 3.

The last episode I posted was of my dear friend Sarah, who then died in January of 2021. It’s been hard to come back here since then for that reason and several others…

However…

in 2022 I applied for a grant through the University of Guelph Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion Enhancement Fund to produce a podcast where guests will share their lived experience and then consider those experiences with their academic background, either supporting or negating the academic perspective.

We will be covering the following topics this season:

mental health
sex, gender
sexuality
neurodiversity
…

If that’s you and you want to apply for this role.

What is Mandyland?

Mandyland is a random assortment of conversations that include entrepreneurship, neuroscience, motherhood, education, privilege, death and dying, depression and anxiety, identity, and even poop. It is a random assortment of conversations without a clear focus, purposely. In Season One we didn't even have a tag line and the recording quality was minimal. There was virtually no editing because that would just put a road block into this project. Season Two with a little bit more maturity, focus (maybe?), and a tag line. Editing was still minimal. We like to keep the freedom to have random conversations while also diving deeper into some topics of interest, like we did when I had some of my neuroscience students co-host a series of episodes.

Thanks for listening! Lots of Love,

Mandy
