    This document summarizes the key points from a Ted Talk video on unconscious bias. It then discusses: 1) How gender biases exist in seeing men as "providers" and women as "caring", and the need to see both as equal leaders. 2) The importance of encouraging all genders to apply for the same jobs and recognizing there are no gender-specific roles. 3) As counselors, they are in a position of influence and should guide students in recognizing their own potential and overcoming biases.

    First Discussion​​ - Ted Talk Video: Are you biased? I am.

    | Presenter- Kristen Pressner

    - Discussing about how people can be biased with anything - “unconscious bias”
    - Our brains take short-cuts because our brain is processing so much information and
    filters common patterns our brain recognizes
    - This means we do not see the entire picture, but pick out the patterns we
    recognize
    - Comparison between men and women
    - Men are identified as “providers,” but women are identified as “caring”
    - This is a bias; therefore we do not recognize women as leaders
    - Try flipping the bias by asking yourself to reflect on female roles being the same as male
    roles

    Second Discussion
    - Discussion about gender roles
    - How we should encourage both male and females to apply for the same jobs
    - The main issue to be aware is that they are both equal and there is not a
    specific job for males only and a specific job for females only

    Third Discussion
    - As a counselor, we are in a powerful role where we can guide students in a different
    direction
    - Our words influence students and people regarding their future

    Fourth Discussion
    - It is important to know yourself first
    - Question: What do you feel when you walk into a room filled with the opposite
    gender as you?
    - It is vital to be aware of the students you are working with -- what is their background?
    Are they an introvert? Which student population: First gen, international? Older,
    younger?

    Fifth Discussion
    - Author: Nancy McWilliams
    - She focuses on psychoanalytic theory
    - Emphasizes the curiosity in itself can be helpful for clients
    - Maintaining a posture of curiosity can help the conversation flowing when
    working with students
    - Our curiosity can image God in our conversations
    - Encourage the “curiosity” during appointments
