Looking at the silver linings, 2021 opened many doors to people who didn\u2019t know those doors even existed. In that same light, the previous year was when I became a podcast host, allowing me to interview amazing people who do extraordinary things that benefit society and the world. With that in mind, I figured the best way to start this new year is by turning the tables and answering the questions some of my beloved guests asked me.\u00a0In this episode, I reflect on the past year, what it taught me, and the guests I\u2019ve had excellent opportunities to interview. You\u2019ll hear some questions my guests asked me, with tiny bits and pieces of my life experience as well. I describe why bioengineering should be our technological priority, how arts and crafts affected my development, and why we\u2019re all crew members aboard this spaceship called Earth. You\u2019ll also receive leadership advice pertaining to self-doubt.\u00a0\\\"No one can speak as honestly about what you have done than you yourself.\\\" - Kathy Sullivan\u00a0This week on Kathy Sullivan Explores:\u00a0\u25cf\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0Reflecting on the various guests I\\'ve interviewed in 2021 and answering their questions\u25cf\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0The future technology I think humanity should be investing right now\u25cf\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0Health and economic benefits of investing in bioengineering in the long-term\u25cf\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0The role of the arts in my personal and professional development\u25cf\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0Being a crew member of Earth and knowing how our life support system works\u25cf\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0Ocean acidification and how it threatens all life on Earth\u25cf\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0What I wanted my life to be like as a child\u25cf\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0My childhood fascination for learning languages and how it tied to my dreams of exploration\u25cf\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0My advice for dealing with being overlooked or underestimated\u25cf\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0The person who made writing my doctoral thesis difficult\u25cf\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0One of the main reasons I left NASA\u00a0Resources Mentioned:\u00a0\u25cf\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0Episode 11: Kathy Sullivan Explores\u2026 Mountain Climbing, Deep Ocean Diving & The Purpose of Life with Victor Vescovo\u25cf\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0Episode 9: Kathy Sullivan Explores\u2026 Performing in and Running a Theater Group with Stacie Boord\u25cf\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0Episode 7: Kathy Sullivan Explores...
