The More Sibyl Podcast Presents: 조용히 인생을 정복하다| The One with Dr. Adeodat Ilboudo - On Quietly Conquering Life: Episode 13 (2023)

In this week's podcast episode, I spoke with Dr. Adeodat, a passionate scientist and educator from Burkina Faso. We covered diverse topics, including childhood experiences, politics, the challenges of moving abroad, and the importance of education. Dr. Adeodat shared frustrations with France's influence in Africa and encouraged listeners to take risks and embrace learning. We also discussed work-life balance for women in high-achieving roles.

Dr. Adeodat has had an impressive academic journey, obtaining her Ph.D. in France and conducting postdoctoral research at Hunter College in the U.S. She focused on studying disparities in prostate cancer among individuals of African ancestry. Currently, she serves as the Dean of Studies at Bard High School Early College in Manhattan and is a dedicated mother and wife. 

Dr. Adeodat is enthusiastic about sharing her experiences and knowledge with her students. Recently, she launched her podcast, “Adulting 101 Tips For Your Teenage Years & Beyond," where she continues to inspire and educate through her discussions. I thoroughly enjoyed my conversation with Dr. Adeodat, as she exemplifies the African woman who excels in multiple roles. She challenges the misconception that women cannot excel in diverse areas. Her dedication and achievements are truly inspiring and fascinating. I hope you find her interview as enjoyable and enlightening as I did. She is a personal hero of mine.
