Push boundaries, even if sometimes that means breaking the rules! It's how we learn!
Eyes up! Keeping your focus forward is important in both derby and science! It's how you plan, anticipate challenges, devise solutions, and execute. It is how you see the big picture and how your work fits into the broader context of science or the game! Full post on the blog!
"Find a Friend!" -Check out my posts on the importance of sticking with your team and utilizing social connectedness on the track, in the lab, and in life. brainsandbruises.com/blog
Falling & failing is part of it! Acknowledging the worst-case scenario at the start of each jam & experiment changed everything for me as a skater/scientist. You can't avoid falling, but you can prepare yourself to fall safely so that you can get back up & get right back to work.
Getting ready to welcome a new class of skaters to @bigeasyrollerderby this weekend got me thinking about my own Fresh Meat Bootcamp! Here's a fresh-faced throwback selfie from then. Don't forget to fall small, y'all! brainsandbruises.com/blog/fallsmall1
Can't wait to present the 'Science of Skating' this Saturday at the Mississippi Science Fest at @MSChildsMuseum! Stop by and say hello!
Be sure to check out my blog post "Get Low." -How getting comfortable with being uncomfortable is a key feature of roller derby, scientific exploration, and resilience in mental health!
