  • The Great Hiatus

    27 FEB 2018 · Ok, not so great (either emotionally or in terms of size) but the Ada's Sisters are on hiatus while they try to find time to record more episodes!

  • Episode 75: Imposter Syndrome, Marvel women in suits, #MeToo, VC Clubs for women

    13 DEC 2017 · Fascinating article this week in Fast Company identifying women as the canary in the data mine. And we’ll talk about the seven ways to fight imposter syndrome. If you don’t know what that is, we’ll elucidate you. And we’ll tell you about a new VC club for women. Plus, Time’s people of the year are the silence breakers, which, on the anniversary of the Montreal Massacre, is very appropriate. Also appropriate? The twitter-verse’s response to Marvel’s superhero pic.

  • Episode 74: Google’s Sentiment Analyzer, Gen-x and Amazon's Future Engineers

    8 NOV 2017 · We should talk about Google’s SENTIMENT analyzer because it thinks being Gay is bad. That’s ok, so’s being over 40 according to a story in INC.com. What about the mom after our own hearts who fought the biggest social media companies in the world to gain access to her son’s accounts? Mamma bears unite! This story in the Harvard Business Review about sensors and gender is on our radar as is the Amazon Future Engineer project.

  • Episode 73: Salary woes and updates, Best Canadian cities to live in and Sidewalk Toronto

    21 OCT 2017 · Fast Co. says women are making less than men in the creative industries by a whopping 32 per cent! And in The Star’s look at the best Canadian cities to live in if you’re a woman, Toronto came in… TENTH. This is despite the  innovative brains - like the people who came up with Sidewalk Toronto. And all the awesome tech at the Deloitte Greenhouse this week. And if you’ve ever wondered if you’re being paid what you’re worth in this wacky technology industry, Stack Overflow can help.

  • Episode 72: Google Pixel 2, role models, Time Magazine

    11 OCT 2017 · We think Laurie Schultz wrote an important piece for the Huffington Post on being a role model to your daughters. She’s the CEP of ACL and chair of the board for the BC Tech Association. And TIME put out a whole magazine dedicated to women who are changing the world. They highlighted 46, but we know there are so many more. We do, just like we knew that the turn in U.S. politics is bringing more great talent up to Canada. But what about the latest Google announcements on their Pixel 2 and Google Clips? Welcome or Wary about that?

  • Episode 71: Amazon HQ2, Catalyst, Google Drive, Verrit and BeccaToldMe

    27 SEP 2017 · Some big changes coming in Google Drive and the newest Apple OS update and Amazon is looking for a new HQ, could a Canadian city provide that spot? Maybe if they haven't heard about the terrible hiring choices Catalyst Canada is making. At least #BeccaToldMe gives us something to be proud of. What about MOMs TO “A very mommy wine festival?” Something to be proud of? We’ll talk about it. And we have to talk about Verrit because it’s so weird. And more than 100 thousand Canadians were effected by the Equifax breach, so of course it’s on the pod.
