We discus identity, visibility, and trans workplace inclusion. Cordelia does assessment in the higher education space. As a part-time Ph.D. student, she hopes to research at the intersections of employment and the trans identity. As a trans woman herself, Cordelia navigates the world as a digital native hoping to breathe some authenticity into an oversaturated space! She is Sagittarius sun, Gemini Moon, and Aquarius rising and is looking for your input on her charts! Cordelia enjoys video games, DnD, and a nice Rosé!Twitter: https://twitter.com/SheCordeliaInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/shecordelia/ We had a deep talk about what it means to transition and the impacts it has on you personally, professionally, and socially. I am grateful for the real talk and open conversation on what it means to actualize yourself as a woman. We discuss privilege, loss, career search, individual expectations, the “norms” in society, and her personal lived experience as a trans woman in the world today.  And, we are reminded that: “Visibility is a person’s own journey.” ~ @SheCordelia Here are a few things we discussed on this #InVinoFab episode:Epistemology shop talk for researchWhat’s Your Research Worldview?Living Learning Communities at MasonThe Genderbread Person v4.0International Transgender Day of Visibility: March 31stHuman Rights Campaign (HRC) works to educate the public on issues that transgender people face and to advocate for full inclusion and equality => Explore: Transgender HRC's Corporate Equality Index 2020 [REPORT] and Workplace ResourcesHashtags & Communities to Connect to: #TransIsBeautiful & The Okra Project @TheOkraProjectZoey’s Extraordinary Playlist TV show #ZoeysPlaylist#FreeTheFemme: The aesthetics of survival by Hari Nef (@harinef) | TEDxConnecticutCollege“Do the best you can until you know better.
