GettingPersonal Welcome to Getting Personal! Our names are Sam, Saskia, Kiera, and Erica, and we are four graduate students currently completing research in the areas of geography, environmental studies, and health promotion at Queen’s University, in Kingston, Ontario. We created Getting Personal as an opportunity to converse with one another about positionality and reflexivity in the context of our own research projects. With a different one of us at the focal point for each episode, we share how our personal identities, backgrounds, and experiences have shaped who we are today, and through “kitchen-table” conversation, we ponder how these personal subjectivities make their way into our work. We hope these conversations will resonate with fellow graduate students as they embark on their own research journeys, as we believe that reflexive discussion can help those from any discipline to improve their research practice by becoming more knowledgeable about positionality and ethics.
