Mathematics, Sex and Your Industry!

Mathematics is indispensable for modern society. Since the middle of the 20th century, we’ve seen an explosion of mathematics used in the solving of real-world problems, infiltrating all industries and fields of investigation. So much so that it is to the point where it’s not only happening in your industry but it’s now reached the world of sex and relationships too! See how this has been working. A refreshingly funny way to gain a brand new perspective on your industry, mathematics – and sex of course!

Mathematics and Sex (Mathematics Education)

Even though mathematics takes up a large component of our years in education, its impact in our life remains largely unknown. Many people even have intense negative feelings associated with their mathematical experience. But contrary to popular belief, mathematical ability is not bestowed on a chosen few. So find out how mathematics stitches together the fabric of our society, the power it gives your mind, and how mathematically oriented you really can be. It’s about equipping you with solid knowledge to make sure a large part of our culture, and so your future, is not missed out upon.

Pathways to Success

I discovered mathematics at eighteen and it changed my life. I went from being a very mediocre student to someone with unlimited potential and a place in the world. My experiences of that time have made me one of the strongest advocates for identifying the brain as the most powerful of liberating tools. Find out about how I went from world-class dropout, ready to drift aimlessly seeking shelter in drugs and alcohol, to a totally unexpected success as a mathematician. I focus on developing genuine insight into the power and beauty of the brain and the importance of keeping it healthy.

The Gender Experience

Saying “I’m a mathematician” has always brought me interesting comments: “You must have a lot of testosterone”, “You must have a big left-brain for a woman”, and then “What’s the square root of 5672?” probably being among the top three. I don’t fit the stereotype. I’ve turned that into a positive but it hasn’t stopped me from investigating the impact of stereotypes in general. I also couldn’t be more feminine, so my journeys into traditionally male dominated arenas has led me to investigate gender roles and abilities too; as well as equipped me with not only some great stories to share but with a real message for those among us struggling to overcome some of the oppressions of stereotyping.
