Ordinarily Extraordinary is a labor of love created by two women passionate about sharing real stories of women working in science, technology, engineering, and math.

We do this to inspire future generations, build community, and show the world what STEM careers actually look like — with all their brilliance, messiness, humor, and heart.

Ordinarily Extraordinary - Conversations with women in STEM

Weโ€™re Kathy Kale Nelson and Linda LaTourelle โ€” co-hosts of Ordinarily Extraordinary: Conversations with Women in STEM.

Kathy, an electrical engineer, launched the podcast in 2020 to share real, unfiltered stories of women working across STEM disciplines. Now with over 130 episodes, the mission remains the same: to amplify the voices of ordinary women doing extraordinary work in science, technology, engineering, and math.
Weโ€™re deeply committed to:

~ Normalizing the presence of women in STEM by making their stories visible
~ Building community for women who may be the only ones like them in their workplace
~ Educating listeners about the wide variety of STEM careers โ€” and what they actually look like
~ Empowering growth and retention by addressing the challenges behind the leaky pipeline

From early-career professionals to experienced leaders, our guests share how they got started, how theyโ€™ve grown, and what theyโ€™ve learned along the way. This podcast is a space where women in STEM can be seen, heard, and supported โ€” because representation isnโ€™t just powerful, itโ€™s essential.
