Conceptually Speaking
This podcast is all about engaging experts in dialogue about the concepts and patterns that help us understand our world. Each week, I chat with guests from a variety of fields to better understand how their cognitive processes and social practices help them navigate complexity and solve wicked problems in their domain. Whether chatting with academics, YouTubers, educational leaders, or neuroscientists, every episode is an invitation to explore meaningful questions and reconceptualize what we think and feel about education.
