  • Prowl Breaks Barriers: Gender, Design & Sustainability

    Prowl Breaks Barriers: Gender, Design & Sustainability
    Apr 23 2025

    Jon and Verda dive into the intersection of gender, sustainability, and regenerative futures in industrial design. We’re joined by two powerhouse designers, Baillie Mischler, Founder at PROWL, and Lauryn Menard, CEO of GOB. Together, we explore the challenges and opportunities for women in industrial design, the systemic gender biases embedded in everyday products, and the urgent need for diverse voices in shaping the future of design. We also discuss what a ‘regenerative future’ means and how companies like PROWL and GOB are pushing the boundaries of sustainability.

  • Crunching the Numbers: Women in Design with ThinkLab

    Crunching the Numbers: Women in Design with ThinkLab
    Mar 19 2025
    In this episode, we sit down with Amanda Schneider, founder of ThinkLab, to explore gender disparities in the architecture and interior design industries. We dive into the numbers—why do women make up 50% of architecture students but only 25% get licensure and even less than 10% are in leadership roles? Does it matter who leads? We discuss systemic barriers, the impact of workplace culture, and what it takes to create a more equitable future. Plus, Amanda shares insights on domestic inequality, generational shifts, and how the industry can drive real change.This season of Break Some Dishes is presented by Humanscale.RESOURCES AND FURTHER READING Amanda Schneider’s 2024 TEDx Talk: Watch hereThinkLab US Design Industry Benchmark Report (2025): Access the reportAshley and Scott Delano Working Parents Initiative: Learn moreNate Bargatze Comedy Clip: Watch on YouTubeFollow Amanda Schneider on LinkedIn: Connect hereDesign Nerds Anonymous Podcast (Diversity Episode): Listen hereMcKinsey Women in the Workplace 2024 Report: Read the reportReshma Saujani, Author of Pay Up: Follow her on LinkedInSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

  • Beyond Patriarchy: Indigenous Perspectives for a Sustainable Future

    Beyond Patriarchy: Indigenous Perspectives for a Sustainable Future
    Feb 26 2025

    For this first episode of Season 6 Jon and Verda speak with Keshia DeFreece Lawrence, a Ramapough Lenape Munsee environmental political scientist and Indigenous expert at Harvard Forest, a 4,000-acre living laboratory on traditional Nipmuc land. We explore the concept of Sovereign Science—an approach to environmental stewardship that prioritizes protection, care, and deep relationship with the land, and discuss the rematriation of physical space, the shift from patriarchal land management to matriarchal ecological care and kinship. Keshia shares how Indigenous knowledge challenges and expands Western paradigms of sustainability.

    This season of Break Some Dishes is presented by Humanscale.
