Ways to Survive Grind Culture: Sharon Higginbothan
Dialogue on Teaching, Wabash Center’s podcast series, is hosted by Nancy Lynne Westfield, Ph.D., Director of the Wabash Center. Amplifying the Wabash Center’s mission, the podcasts focus upon issues of teaching and learning in theology and religion within colleges, university, seminaries, as well as the publics impacted by these schools. Dialogues with faculty and administrators working in the wide range of institutional contexts illumine the complexity of teaching and the teaching life.
Sharon Higginbothan, PhD is the Founder and Principle of the Higginbothan and Associates LLC where they do coaching, group facilitation, and consultation. She is also Adjunct Professor of Liberation and Womanist Theology at Chatham University.
For those who feel disillusioned by the professorate - even when having had accomplishments, for those who have invested in individualism over and against community, for those who cannot see the violences inherit in grind culture - this conversation is for you. The key is reconnection to community.
