For Dr. Natasha Jones, as for so many of us – life is what happens when you’re busy making plans. As a scholar, author, and as Associate Professor of Technical Communications at Michigan State University, Dr. Jones has had to learn how to turn lemons into lemonade and create a future in which she not only thrives but for those following in her footsteps. In this episode, we explore her Southern roots growing up in a conservative religious home, what it was like to navigate entering the workforce while embracing unexpected single-motherhood, and ultimately how's she found her power as a woman of color in the challenging world of higher education.
- Why being comfortable and playing it safe doesn’t always lead to the happiness that you are seeking
- The power of saying no as a form of self-care, even when it’s something you really want to do
- The importance of cultivating mentor relationships, and also when to let go

Jones is an Associate Professor of Technical Communications at Michigan State University, a technical communication scholar and co-author of the book "Technical Communication after the Social Justice Turn: Building Coalitions for Action" (winner of the 2021 CCCC Best Book in Technical or Scientific Communication).

She has received national recognition for her work, being awarded the CCCC Best Article in Technical and Scientific Communication (2020, 2018, and 2014) and the Nell Ann Pickett Award (2017).
