  • Celebrating the Women Who’ve Been Erased from History Books!
    Mar 25 2026
    Happy Women’s History Month! This week we’re discussing the wonderful women of STEAM (yes, we include the arts here) that have had their work stolen, co-opted, or overlooked by men and the dominant culture. Thank you to all the women in academia, research, creative fields, business, politics, etc. who persist, push back, and put men in check - I absolutely cannot wait to read your stories and studies, I know they’ll be *chefs kiss.* I know I mispronounced a lot in this episode, as always feel free to shoot me a DM or comment with correct pronunciation, I really do appreciate the help. Also yes, I meant to say “retrograde menstruation” not “reverse menstruation” - the world simply escaped me. Make sure to like and subscribe on Youtube, rate me 5 stars on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, any place you’re listening to this podcast. Y’all are the best.

  • How to Design Your Own Course Curriculum! (Pt. 3)
    Mar 11 2026
    We’ve discussed healthy habits, desire and interception, but now is the time to focus our artist eyes! This week on Schauer Thoughts we’re going over an abridged understanding of design elements and factors to consider when creating your own course curriculum. I strongly encourage mood boarding this episode but taking notes or just listening are fine as well. Enough chit chat - to the communal Schauer we go! My Substack Post: How To Start Researching as a Hobby https://substack.com/home/post/p-168506463 Resources to Learn for Fun & Free (or Fun & Free) https://substack.com/home/post/p-175242020 I also give tips on how to create your own “syllabus” with these resources. Resources: Ruth Asawa and the Artist-Mother at Midcentury - Jordan Troeller To Photograph Is To Learn How To Die - Tim Carpenter Sin and Syntax: How to Craft Wickedly Effective Prose - Constance Hale The Story Grid: What Good Editors Know - Shawn Coyne Bargaining for Advantage: Negotiation Strategies for Reasonable People - G. Richard Shell This Is What It Sounds Like - Susan Rogers and Ogi Ogas The Psychology of Fashion - Carolyn Mair Your Brain on Art - Susan Magsamen and Ivy Ross Breath: The New Science of a Lost Art - James Nestor This is the book on breathing I was talking about. Decisionscape: How Thinking Like an Artist Can Improve Our Decision-Making - Elspeth Kirkman I also wanted to recommend this book for understanding the importance of “word tense” when it comes to internal thoughts and rumination - I cannot stress this enough. She goes through first person, third, active, passive - language really does shape a lot of our decisions and life. Visual Thinking: The Hidden Gifts of People Who Think In Pictures, Patterns, and Abstractions - Temple Grandin The Activism of Art: A Decentered Anthology - Dipti Desai and Stephen Duncombe The Knowledge Illusion: Why We Never Think Alone - Steven Sloman and Philip Fernbach The 7 Principles of Design and How To Use Them (w/ Infographic) https://www.vistaprint.com/hub/principles-of-design#:~:text=The%20principles%20of%20design%20are,Proportion%2C%20Movement%20and%20White%20Space Not sponsored by Vistaprint lol Chronic Back Pain Makes the World Sound Harsher https://neurosciencenews.com/chronic-pain-sound-sensitivity-30237/ Scientists have found a fascinating link between breathing and memory https://www.psypost.org/scientists-have-found-a-fascinating-link-between-breathing-and-memory/ Nature Exposure Triggers Brain Reset https://neurosciencenews.com/nature-brain-reset-30204/ Learn more about your ad choices.
