We’ve made it through another season of Josie and The Podcast – and as we celebrate the end of Season 6, we’re also celebrating my birthday! To commemorate these milestones, I wanted to use this final episode to reflect on this past season and this era of my life. One of several themes this season was technology, specifically AI.

A common theme I noticed throughout today's conversation with Mike Muñoz was a focus on breathing. Whether it was metaphorically taking a breather from doom scrolling, or literally stopping yourself for a quiet moment to feel your chest move up and down.

Diving into the world of Artificial intelligence (AI) can be intimidating. Or maybe you’re unsure about using it at all.

In this episode, I’ll cover the importance of staying updated with changing AI trends, discuss possible concerns and benefits of integrating AI in higher ed, provide practical and

I LOVE professional development, especially a good conference. And as I prepare to head out to the NASPA 2023 in Boston (yes, this is recorded a bit early at the end of March), I wanted to share some tips and tricks to planning and having the best conference experience.

The people that you meet online aren't real. It's not lasting. It's not impactful. Blah, blah blah. We’re constantly surrounded by people who invalidate or don't believe that friendships or connections online count as real.
