As a UX researcher, this had me nodding my head. Product and engineering teams need to read this, even if they work in other industries. Voice and tone matter in interfaces.

Thanks again for this honor, Hippocampus Magazine & Books !

At times, my journey with infertility left me broken. I shared today in Vogue Magazine how surrogacy changed that. I found a sister and most importantly love. If you're in NY, tell your reps to end the ban on gestational surrogacy. #LoveMakesAFamilyNY vogue.com/article/reshma…

I feel so passionately about this piece The Washington Post. Thank you @amyjoyce_berg for giving me a platform to share so many brilliant, strong women's thoughts @agarbes Emily Oster Alexandra Sacks, M.D. Rashmi Kudesia MDMSc wapo.st/2UWYHGr

One of my favorite new podcast discoveries is The Nocturnists - like The Moth, but for medicine. Enjoyed this one about a doc's 1st day as sr resident. I could almost taste those Ann Sather cinnamon rolls, a nice Chicago detail.

Great interview with @digitalgonzo about our customer experience / digital transformation work ASA® - I'm so proud to be a part of this team. Leadership support of #uxresearch makes it possible. forummagazine.org/member-first-a…

A lot of this matches stories I've heard + once, I got a traffic warning (white privilege, I SO see that now),but it was printed on reused paper. Its backside had a chart for tallying violations, as author says here. It creeped me out, felt like seeing thing I wasn't supposed to

The only thing worse than the way Breonna Taylor was killed is the fact that — even with all of this energy and outrage — the cops who killed her haven’t been arrested and it feels like the conversation is moving on. And you KNOW why.

AMEN

So. Much. Yes.

Glossing over blatant white supremacy in the name of civility is how “nice” white folks are taught to uphold white supremacy. Niceness is not a virtue.

Required viewing for UX researchers & any org wanting human-centered culture. Deirdre Costello drops truth on Price of #empathy at work. "Superpowers are forged in trauma”= recognizing impacts on personal mental health from: Hypervigilence, Feelings/Actions, Sublimation #UXRConf

this, right here, is why I respect and admire Vivianne Castillo so much. She shares *so much* from painfully lived experiences, and it's made me a better person. And she's *honest* about the cost that has on her. #UXRConf
