Episode notes
We did things a bit different this week as our featured leader had to reschedule – and we were all the featured leaders for the week, asking questions to each other. Libby & Mike put Rachael, our Pro Community Lead in the hot seat to start and then we all answered the questions that came in.

Featured in this episode
I love connecting people across the data science community to share what they're accomplishing with data and help others do the same through community discussions, industry meetups, and more.
I'm a data science educator and community builder who wants to help you cultivate a community of practice for yourself. I talk a lot about the benefits of making genuine human connections, the power of vulnerability, and why we all benefit when we show up as our whole selves. I'm also the host of the Data Humans podcast where my motto is: data science is not one thing.
The Data Science Hangout community is made up of people using data (or curious about data) across all different industries, all different roles, and all different levels. This week we hosted everyone on the call as our featured leaders and opened up to a group discussion.
