There’s only so much you can do in a week – or, according to Oliver Burkeman, in the roughly 4,000 weeks the average human lives. Oliver is a journalist and author of the books Four Thousand Weeks: Time Management for Mortals, Meditations for Mortals, and the newsletter “The Imperfectionist.” Chris and Oliver discuss the paradox of why change can only occur once we accept that we might not be able to change. Oliver also shares how life’s mishaps can become our most treasured memories and why sharing your imperfections is an act of generosity.

Imagine what they would think, feel, and do in a scene—how they would relate to other circumstances. Walk in their shoes. That becomes the inventiveness on the page of fiction, but then it’s grounded in all of that authentic, true history underneath it.” - Linda Kass This week on Kathy Sullivan Explores: ● The young Linda Kass and her life growing up in central Ohio ● Linda’s time at Eastmoor High School and how it led her to become a journalist ● Her work as a physical therapist while studying journalism in graduate school ● The genesis of Linda’s life as a writer, teacher, and freelancer ● What brought Linda back to Columbus after living and working in Detroit ● How Columbus has changed since the late 80s ● The creative writing project that began Linda’s career as a historical novelist ● What creative nonfiction is and how it helped Linda tell her parents’ stories ● Poland and modern-day Ukraine in the context of World War II ● How a Catholic family helped Linda’s mother and her family during World War II ● The research and writing process involved in creating Tasa’s Song ● The art of inhabiting a character while writing ● What led Linda to write her book on Bessy Myerson ● The value of reading and writing Resources Mentioned: ● Book: The Bright Forever: A Novel by Lee Martin Our Favorite Quotes: ● “Read, because when you enjoy that experience you want to read more. When you read, you learn more, and when you learn you can be an empathetic human being that understands yourself and the world better.” - Linda Kass ● “To tell a real human story is more treatful and effective than coming up with just a fact-by-fact biography.” - Linda Kass Connect with Linda Kass: ● Linda Kass Website ● Gramercy Books ● Book: Bessie ● Gramercy Books on Instagram ● Gramercy Books on Facebook ● Gramercy Books on Twitter ● Linda Kass on Instagram ● Linda Kass on Facebook ● Linda Kass on Twitter ● Email: Linda@lindakass.com ● Email: gramercyinfo@gramercybooksbexley.com Spaceship Not Required I’m Kathy Sullivan, the only person to have walked in space and gone to the deepest point in the ocean.

John Dabiri is a MacArthur Fellow and Centennial Chair Professor at the California Institute of Technology. John’s research focuses on unsteady fluid mechanics and flow physics, with particular emphasis on topics relevant to biology, energy, and the environment. While serving as a Professor of Aeronautics and Bioengineering at Caltech from 2005 to 2015, John was also the Director of the Center for Bioinspired Wind Energy, Chair of the Faculty, and Dean of Students. From 2015 to 2019, he served as a Professor of Civil and Environmental Engineering and Mechanical Engineering at Stanford University. He graduated summa cum laude from Princeton University in 2001 with a Bachelor of Science in Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering and received his Master of Science in Aeronautics from Caltech, where he also earned his Ph.D. in Bioengineering with a minor in Aeronautics. In addition to his work at Caltech, John serves on President Biden's Council of Advisors on Science and Technology, among other advisory boards. Today, you’ll hear John and I explore what nature can teach us about engineering systems, heart health, and optimizing wind farms. He describes his life growing up in Toledo, how a summer internship introduced him to the world of jellyfish, and how studying jellyfish quickly morphed into the focus of his life’s work. He recounts stories from his stint as a technical consultant for Nope (2022) and shares his thoughts on the sitcom, The Big Bang Theory, and its portrayal of academic life at Caltech. You’ll also gain insight into solving the diversity problem in physics and engineering and why tapping the curiosity of young minds can inspire more students to pursue STEM. “Curiosity is a unique lens by which we can explore the world around us, and the outcomes from that would be the technologies that could revolutionize climate, space, and medicine.” - John Dabiri This week on Kathy Sullivan Explores: ● John’s background and family history ● How John’s parents navigated their identity and race in America ● Carrying forward Nigerian traditions ● John’s high school experience and why he chose Mechanical Engineering for his college path ● How he transitioned from an undergraduate degree in Mechanical engineering to a doctoral in Bioengineering with a minor in Aerodynamics ● How John wound up studying jellyfish after pursuing an undergraduate degree in Mechanical Engineering ● Why mentors play an important role in a PhD student’s life ● What jellyfish can teach us about submarines, heart health, and wind farms ● What it’s like to receive the prestigious MacArthur Fellowship award ● Why Dr. Jellyfish can’t swim ● The Big Bang Theory’s portrayal of academic life at Caltech ● Working with Jordan Peele for the 2022 movie, Nope ● Solving the diversity problem in physics and engineering ● How we can inspire more young people to join STEM Our Favorite Quotes: ● “The application of tech is a nice motivation, but we can tap into the curiosity of a five-year-old to draw them into science, even if there’s no immediate application.” - John Dabiri ● “I fell in love with taking the same mindset I used in taking apart video games and cars into understanding how biological systems work—how these very simple bags of water in a jellyfish can swim through the ocean.” - John Dabiri Connect with John Dabiri: ● Dabiri Lab ● John Dabiri on LinkedIn ● Email: jodabiri@caltech.edu Spaceship Not Required I’m Kathy Sullivan, the only person to have walked in space and gone to the deepest point in the ocean.

You’ve probably heard or read something about the “new space age” unfolding around us. While this new era of space exploration is raising important questions—like who sets the rules and who owns what—it’s also inspiring grand visions of the future. I don’t have a crystal ball or some super secret source of insider intelligence, but it’s clear that two grand visions are strongly influencing a lot of the enterprises involved in the new space age: one of preserving humanity and the world, and one of escaping it all. In this episode, I explore two of the leading visions emerging at the dawn of the new space age. You’ll hear about Jeff Bezos’ purpose for Blue Origin and his plan to build space stations where people can live and work. I share Elon Musk’s mission to colonize Mars and discuss what “lifeboat syndrome” is. You’ll also learn how the work of philanthropists started aviation and spaceflight and gain insight into the role of ordinary people like you and me in the future of the new space age. “Where it all goes from here will be up to people like you and me and the kids and grandkids of our lives. They will inherit the lessons and building blocks from these initial lessons and have the opportunity to write an exciting new chapter in spaceflight and the future of humanity and our planet.” - Kathy Sullivan This week on Kathy Sullivan Explores: ● The dawn of the new space age ● Jeff Bezos and Blue Origin’s vision for the future of outer space ● Elon Musk and his plans to colonize Mars ● The lifeboat syndrome ● How philanthropy drove the inception of aviation and spaceflight Resources Mentioned: ● Book: The High Frontier: Human Colonies In Space by Gerard K. O'Neill Our Favorite Quotes: ● “Stephen Hawking famously once said that humanity will not endure another thousand years unless it becomes a multi-planet species.” - Kathy Sullivan ● “It was the vision and private capital of philanthropists like Samuel Langley and Robert Goddard and the people they could draw to their cause that allowed everyone to envision what aviation and spaceflight could become.” - Kathy Sullivan Related Episode: ● 108 | The New Wild West Spaceship Not Required I’m Kathy Sullivan, the only person to have walked in space and gone to the deepest point in the ocean.
