Abstract In this paper, I trace my professional journey and highlight two major themes in relation to my path into a wholly unexpected career as a university faculty member: (a) contextual influences in shaping my academic/career cognitions and opportunities that paved the way into an academic career and (b) challenges that I have faced as a woman of color in academia. I share my experiences with infertility and suffering the deeply painful loss of a child and how it affected my relation with work. The paper concludes with recommendations for feminist mentorship for faculty working with Latina students.

Abstract Literature suggests that mentors play a unique role in individuals’ personal and career development. In this article, I highlight how a feminist mentoring style has influenced my academic and professional journey from student to Full Professor, as I have assumed leadership roles at my university and nationally. Using theory and research as a backdrop, I explore how my multiple identities–international student, immigrant, women, Asian Indian-intersect with mentoring relationships, institutional norms, and choices I have made and realizations I had when seeking guidance. My article concludes with lessons learned and how I have applied these in my mentorship with others.

Abstract In this narrative, I describe my development as a feminist mentor and leader in academe. I explore the impacts of both my privileged and marginalized identities throughout my career; the feminist leaders and mentors who guided me; and my own experiences of activism, leadership, and mentorship to the present day. I note especially the intersections and contradictions of my identities and professional roles, and I use the metaphor of the divided self to articulate the challenge of living my feminist vision within the systems of institutional, societal, and professional privilege that I have experienced.

Abstract Through the process of dialogue, collaboration, and sisterhood, we attempted to demonstrate feminist values and principles in leadership and mentorship through the process of writing this article. Discussions between the three authors led to our reflections of our own personal journeys in leadership roles, along with lessons learned. We then connected our lived experiences to relevant feminist leadership concepts and conclude with our thoughts about this process.

Abstract The story of Black/African descent women in academic leadership is laced with challenging and triumphant narratives, including mine. Here, I share narratives of family, research inquiry into relational aggression in academia, and my own experiences as a Black woman in the academy. Academic context and political timing play a large part in this writing. I use the work of Black feminists and thinkers critical of race and White supremacy in the United States to contextualize my personal narrative and articulate drawbacks and pathways to leadership for women generally, particularly Black women. Practical considerations for leadership development and mentoring are presented.

Abstract This article represents an integration of my personal and professional identities. I begin by discussing some of my salient identities (e.g., multiracial Asian American, cisgender woman, sexual/gender minority ally, first-generation college student) and their impact on my path to academic psychology. I then discuss some of the professional lessons I have learned, including the importance of finding community, clarifying values, and knowing one’s worth. From these lessons, I offer suggestions for other early career professionals to consider as they navigate their journey. Finally, I conclude with some of the ways I apply my experience to the training of therapists.

Abstract Esther Rothblum and Ellen Cole were coeditors of Women & Therapy from 1984-1995. In this article we describe the process of editing a feminist journal in the 1980s and 1990s, including how each of us came to be an editor. We discuss the challenges and opportunities in editing the journal in the early years of the feminist movement and before the Internet.

Isis H. Settles
Abstract As a Black, female, feminist, intersectional psychologist whose scholarship defies traditional categorization, I have faced several challenges within academia including identifying my scholarly niche, finding collaborators, and building networks. In this article, I identify how, by building and extending my network, I have been able to: (a) become an “authentic scholar,” who conducts scholarship consistent with my training, feminist values, and intersectional theoretical framework; (b) find support and coaching to deal with issues of stereotyping and unequal treatment within academia; (c) support graduate students and early-career faculty, especially those of color; and (d) take on leadership roles.

Abstract This article offers a mid-career reflection on life in academia. Using a feminist-existentialist-Buddhist lens, I acknowledge structural and societal obstacles while embracing my sense of agency. I elucidate challenges I faced related to adjustable perspectives and learnable skills, and I offer insights and strategies related to time management, discipline, persistence, and facing inner demons. Finally, I share my vision for the remainder of my career in terms of intervention research, mentoring, and dissemination efforts.

Abstract In this article, I share my story as a clinical psychologist in academic medicine and as a female leader within organized psychology. I discuss how my sociocultural background impacts and is impacted by the care I provide at an inner-city, safety net hospital and my clinical-research with low-income African American women and families. I offer my thoughts on how my personal and professional identities are informed by my dedication to supervising and mentoring women from diverse backgrounds. I address how these identities led me to embrace a collaborative, transformational, and courageous leadership approach and to engage in social justice advocacy.
