Intellectual Health - Make Mistakes with Rasha Aridi

from The YOGI M.D. Podcast · host Rasha Aridi

A few years ago, Rasha Aridi was studying to become a wildlife conservationist when she realized that she enjoyed nerding out about science with her friends and family more than she actually enjoyed being a scientist. Now as a science journalist, Rasha strives to engage broad audiences in the world of science and discovery by turning complex topics into fun, accessible, and relevant content. One of her guiding principles is "science is for everyone," so she strives to make science more transparent and easier to understand for audiences of all backgrounds. Plus, Rasha hopes that her work can spark a bit of curiosity, joy, and excitement for science, just as it does for her. Her venture into science journalism has led her to write and work for outlets like The Guardian, Science Magazine, Smithsonian Magazine, and NPR.  Resources:https://www.rashaaridi.com/ Music:The YOGI MD Podcast Theme Music by Lisette Kelly (bass and guitar), Maya Bishop (vocals), & Nadine Kelly (percussion); Produced by Tim Buell. Transition music by BLKBOK

Long ago, a little girl afraid to make mistakes dreamed of becoming a doctor. If only Rasha Aridi had been there to help her learn why being wrong is so right. But it's never too late to learn! Today, it is my pleasure to introduce Rasha, science journalist and self professed nerd who passionately believes that science is for everybody.
