Are you ready to embark on an exhilarating journey through the realms of STEAM? Look no further than STEAM Rises, the dynamic new podcast where curiosity meets innovation.

Hosted by Melina O'Grady and Melinda Barbosa, "STEAM Rises" delves deep into the intersection of Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Math, unlocking insights and inspiration from voices across the Cambridge community and beyond.

Join us as we sit down with Cambridge trailblazers and visionaries across local industries, letting curiosity guide our conversations. From exploring guests' roles and motivations to diving into the essence of belonging and cultivating Habits of Mind, each episode sparks a new wave of creativity and discovery.

Produced by the Cambridge STEAM Initiative, STEAM Rises is not just a podcast -- it's a call to action. We aim to inspire listeners to create change in their communities and personal lives by engaging in meaningful dialogue, asking questions, and reflecting on the power of STEAM education. A central theme runs through each of our episodes: STEAM is for everyone and it takes infinite forms.

This podcast series builds on the STEAM Initiative’s community study, which examines the cultivation of STEAM Habits of Mind in classrooms and youth programs. By interviewing educators, program leaders, and innovators, we aim to amplify existing efforts to close gaps in access to STEAM pathways and pave the way for a future where STEAM-minded students are the architects of progress and innovation.
