#Giveaway M’s Advice for Aspiring Female Glaciologists #Win NO BOUNDRIES by CLARE FIESELER @ClareFieseler @NGKids Ends 4.10

March 30, 2022 By Mary

Welcome to the No Boundaries Blog Tour!

In No Boundaries, twenty-five inspiring women from around the world — many of whom are National Geographic Explorers — share their adventures, failures, successes, sage advice and lessons learned, straight from the field.  This week, get to know five of the amazing women featured in No Boundaries and be inspired by their work and the challenges they overcame to forge new paths in science and exploration!


 

 

 

Meet Dr. M Jackson

Dr. M Jackson is a geographer, glaciologist and National Geographic Explorer. She studies natural ice all around the world, including how people interact with and relate to the ice and how people will be impacted by melting ice caused by climate change.  Learn more about Dr. Jackson’s work in this beautiful and fascinating video and visit her online.

 

 

 

 

 

M’s Advice for Aspiring Female Glaciologists:

“I say, come on! There’s so much room for you in this field. It’s so new, and it’s shaping itself. We need as many diverse perspectives as possible. It is not easy, so the advice I would give is to persevere. Everyone’s going to give you excuses for why you don’t belong in a space. But if you’re passionate about it, just move forward. And build yourself a community of people who support you unconditionally.”

M’S READING RECOMMENDATION

The Only Kayak by Kim Heacox. “That was the first time it occurred to me that you could go out and make your own community, your own world,” M says. “That was a huge book for me when I was younger.”

Meet 25 female explorers and scientists in these inspirational and poignant stories of exploration, courage, and girl power.

Along the way, they share lessons learned and words of wisdom sure to inspire the next generation of scientists, adventurers, and world-changers.

Track a volcanologist as she braves the elements atop an active volcano. Travel alongside a mountaineer as she battles stereotypes―and frostbite―to conquer the famed Seven Summits. Join a conservationist on her passionate fight to save lions. Dig with a paleontologist to uncover massive dinosaur fossils, bit by breathtaking bit. These heartfelt stories give readers an insider’s look at the amazing work female explorers at National Geographic―and beyond―are doing in the field to solve some of the world’s toughest problems.

Rather than detailing the lives of well-known women, this anthology celebrates lesser-known changemakers and outstanding women of diverse backgrounds, nationalities, and fields of study who are just beginning to make a name for themselves. Each profile is based on first-person interviews and comes paired with useful tips and relatable advice for budding explorers and scientists. Stunning photography and fascinating general interest information about the animals, places, and practices add drama and context.

No Boundaries sends a positive message to every girl who has ever dreamed or dared to go a little further. And although these explorers’ endeavors are quite adventurous, the lessons they share can inspire all girls, as well as boys, whatever their goals, skills, and interests.
