Send us Fan MailThe benefits of preparing and sharing homecooked meals with kids are many. Unfortunately, our schedules and other pressures often prevent us from doing it deliberately and more frequently. My guest this episode, Maegan Zelner, is the Chief Operating Officer of Raddish Kids, a company committed to bringing cooking and baking activities to all families. Maegan and I discuss her perspective on the benefits of shared cooking and baking experiences, the obstacles that prevent some families from enjoying these experiences, and her tips for overcoming those obstacles. More information about Maegan and Raddish Kids is at talkingaboutkids.com.

Activities like pony club, showjumping and eventing were not on Shannen Llewelleyn's radar during her teen years on the NSW Central Coast. That's not to say she didn't like horses. In fact the idea of buying herself a suitable steed one day had crossed her mind more than once. A job at a local Woolworths Supermarket allowed Shannen to save diligently, and it wasn't long before she had enough spare cash to buy the horse of her dreams. That horse turned out to be a standardbred who'd never made it to the racetrack. She named him “Shadow” and began the slow, tedious process of teaching herself to ride from scratch. Not surprisingly there were a few anxious moments. Memories of old “Shadow” are beginning to fade these days as she boots home winner after winner on NSW racetracks- 150 winners in fact since March of 2024. Shannen joins us on the podcast to talk about her rapid rise. She begins by talking about her recent transition to metropolitan racing. Shannen talks about the crowded lady jockey's rooms these days in and out of the city.  The 24 year old talks about her early upbringing at Lismore and the family's relocation to the Central Coast eleven years ago. She talks of her scholarly attributes. Shannen says she moved back to Lismore for a while and began her working life with Woolworths.  When the time came to rejoin her mother and sister, she was fortunate to gain a transfer to a Central Coast Woolworths store. At age 19 she purchased her own horse. Shannen later sought a second job with hours to fit in with her Woolworths commitment. That job happened to be with a thoroughbred operation run by a master horseman.The journey had begun. She says a short stint followed with Wyong trainer Kim Waugh which led to an offer from leading Western Districts trainer Brett Robb. Shannen says she rode in almost 40 barrier trials before applying for a licence to ride in races. The process seemed to take forever. She looks back on her very first race ride at Dubbo, and admits she got a scare when the horse “bucked” out of the gates. The young jockey was thrilled to win at her 5th race ride on Dubbo favourite Elson Boy from the Dar Lunn stable. Shannen couldn't believe her luck when she rode another winner just two days later. She rode for just four months of her first season in the saddle, and couldn't believe the winning run that came her way. Shannen talks about the offer she received from trainer Jane Clement which saw her move to Bendemeer near Tamworth. She loved the experience. She talks of a Parkes Cup win last year on veteran galloper Knife's Edge.  Shannen talks of her move to the Nathan Doyle stable at Newcastle a year ago. She acknowledges the horses to give her seven metropolitan wins so far. The jockey says her weight is giving her no problems at this stage of her career. Shannen makes special mention of her favourite horse to this point in time.  She talks of devoted mum Danielle and older sister Lakisha. Shannen admits to being overwhelmed by the good fortune to come her way in such a short time.

Country star Riley Green ate an absurd amount of eggs, just as a regular breakfast. Anna is disturbed. Raven can do 4, Anna's dad ate one in an omelet. What is your egg limit?  Shark week is back! It used to be all about sharks, but now... shark week has changed. Parodys, remixes, songs... what is this!?  Raven celebrated with his son at his bachelor party this weekend. It got crazy with their ATVs. Broken phones, dirty mud plunges. Typical vacation adventures. What vacation activity did you do?   Anna slept in a dorm, Sophia snuck into a club, and Raven and Justin did boy activities. We're you mad, sad, or glad this weekend? You have to pick one! Anna and her friends rediscovered skipping this weekend after they watched a couple doing it together down the street. She claims she cannot skip like she used to, so she sees who can do it the best!  Generation wars round two! After Producer Sophia claimed she didn't care for anything involving Brad Pitt, Anna thought it was the perfect time for Gen Z vs Gen X. Sophia vs Raven!  Taryn and Declan's eight-year-old daughter has already started complaining that when school starts, she doesn't want to take the bus. She was bullied a lot last year, they worked with the school to sort it out, but she's always hated it. Mom thinks Dad has a more flexible job, he can change his hours to start an hour later and he can take her to school in the morning. Dad says they're the parents; they dictate what happens, and he's not changing anything, she needs to keep going on the bus to build character and to “toughen up”. They handled the bullying last year, this year will be different. Eleni has a chance to win $800! All she has to do is answer more pop culture questions than Raven in Can't Beat Raven!

Episode 391: Unexpectedness in Big and Little Ideas EPISODE NOTES Exciting news! You can listen to the audiobook version of What Am I Made For? Cultivate and Grow Big and Little Ideas. It is available on Audible, Spotify, LibriVox, Audiobooks.com, and library apps like Libby! You can hear “Chapter 1: Unexpectedness in Big and Little Ideas” in this podcast episode. Talented Swedish author Fredrik Backman reached out to me after reading my book. Once I get his permission, I will share some snippets from our email correspondence—spoiler alert: it's glowing! Mr. Backman is the brilliant mind behind beloved works like My Friends, A Man Called Ove, Beartown, Us Against You, The Winners, Anxious People, and others. Chapter One begins in this way. “We often think of self-growth as being something we initiate, but what if unexpected experiences are what actually shape us? From those unexpected experiences, we extract the lessons for self-growth that reshape our lives.” Our growth often comes wrapped in the cloak of inconvenience, appearing as grief, curiosity, or unexpected questions we never thought to ask. Let's embrace the beautiful messiness of becoming and allow this audiobook to inspire and nurture your big and little ideas along the way. So turn up the volume and enjoy my audiobook! You can start with chapter one by clicking on the podcast link. Happy listening! DOWNLOAD Episode Resources Audible Buy Nancy’s Book at Bookshop What Am I Made For?

Conscious Attentive Leadership Mentoring After listening, do these three C.A.L.M. Activities: Take this risk or do this adventurous task: What is a question you hadn't planned to ask yourself about your current situation? Apply Self-Compassion: Identify what feeling you are feeling right now. Where in your body do you feel this feeling? Once you know what your universal human need is, you can meet it. Welcome Appreciation: “I appreciate having taped the audiobook version of What Am I Made For? Cultivate and Grow Big and Little Ideas. As a result, I articulate words more clearly. I appreciate the team I worked with at Manuscripts, especially my audiobook producer, Stephanie McKibbon and Uros Stojnic, sound engineer.” It's Your Turn: Start with, “I appreciate what I heard from today's Mentor, Nancy Meyer. I appreciate this week's adventurous task because…”  “Most of the problems in our lives and world are caused by relational dysfunction, a dysfunction in how we relate: as social groups, as individuals, to animals and the environment, and even to ourselves. Therefore, developing relational literacy—the understanding of and ability to practice healthy ways of relating—is essential for personal, social, and ecological transformation.” —Melanie Joy, Ph.D. Psychologist, Author, Theorist, Educator When WeMentor… your life becomes more meaningful!!! Redefine how you lead while redesigning your business. Dual Innovation Leadership WORKS.  Visionary Mentor Nancy Meyer, MA Business and Life Mentor | Podcaster | Author | Mindfulness Yogi and Meditation Integrator I integrate mindfulness yoga into everything because breathing, meditation, and movement are essential as you change your life and how you lead.  I have a compassionate, collaborative approach that reinforces resilience and maintains accountable conversations supporting your evolution. Bottom Line: My top priority is your transformation and creating a meaningful life through business ownership. You will learn new skills, practice, evolve, innovate, expand marketing efforts, and prosper financially. We start with your desire to develop as a leader. To give you more background, I founded WeMentor, inc. in 1992 to promote Dual Innovation Leadership, the ability to evolve how you lead as you redesign your business model. To grow our businesses, we must lead differently when our perspective shifts. The thousands of brave leaders I have mentored succeeded by taking charge of how they evolved and learned how to respond to the unpredictable nature of business ownership by innovating on purpose (asserting self-leadership).  When your perspective shifts, your intuition nudges you into a growth process so you can learn how to lead differently. As you practice new ways of leading, you notice ways to change your business. It is like remodeling.  We start with a plan when we embark on a remodeling project. When we implement the plan, obstacles challenge us to adjust our mindset, gather further information, and brainstorm other options. Adapting the plan to fit our new reality is part of every remodeling project. Budgets always need adjusting, and we need to update our approach to complete the innovation. What I love about renovating our businesses is that new ideas emerge, and the project usually has an even better result. We feel changed through the process and have learned many details about remodeling that we can apply in our next project. HEAR why I am doing this podcast and subscribe HERE. Get inspired with resources and tools to support your transformation. We post new conversations regularly! You can also binge and listen to prior podcast conversations.

Send us Fan MailWe talk with Brooke Willette, Assistant Director of Admissions at the University of Vermont, about why the Common App activities list is one of the most underestimated parts of a college application. We share how admissions readers scan it, what makes descriptions stand out, and how authenticity and context can matter more than a long list of titles. • The real purpose of the activities section as a window into excitement, belonging, and campus fit • How quickly readers review activities and why strong headers and roles matter • Why quality beats quantity and how to move from “should” to genuine passion • How to choose which ten activities to include when you have more than ten • Whether the order of activities matters and how categories can help readers • Common mistakes in 150-character descriptions and how to be clear without repeating yourself • When and how to quantify impact with numbers without obsessing over exact hours • Redefining leadership beyond formal titles and highlighting quiet leadership • Valuing jobs, caregiving, and non-school responsibilities as real involvement • Including unique hobbies to add dimension and memorability in holistic admissions • What students overthink versus what admissions officers actually weigh • Adding context in Additional Information so changes in activities make sense If today's episode resonated with you, please subscribe, leave a review, and share this podcast with someone who needs study guidance right now. 

Albert Breer's comparison of Shedeur Sanders to a young Patrick Mahomes staying late for extra reps draws pushback, with the argument being that Mahomes was behind an established, respected veteran while Shedeur is fighting for his career in a much different situation. The conversation turns into a broader defense of Shedeur juggling NIL and brand opportunities alongside football, arguing today's era of college stardom means comparisons to past quarterbacks don't really hold up. A poll of kids at a local broadcasting camp gets brought up as evidence that fans overwhelmingly want to see Shedeur get the start, with a few boos reserved for Deshaun Watson.

We don't like to rank national parks because we firmly believe that each one speaks to us all differently. However, there are some parks that end up being unexpected surprises, and quickly turn into lifelong favorites. Because of that, we're crowning Theodore Roosevelt National Park as one of ours.  Each time we visit, it just gets better and better. And in this episode, we're walking you through all three units of the park, all located in North Dakota, plus our favorite things to see, where to stop, and how we like to experience this hidden gem. In this episode, we cover: How to add Theodore Roosevelt National Park to your South Dakota road trip The South Unit scenic loop drive and the best places to pull off for wildlife Why Wind Canyon Trail is a must-see at sunset Why the Elkhorn Ranch Unit is 100% worth the hour-and-a-half dirt road drive The North Unit and its 14-mile scenic drive The best overlooks in the park, including River Bend and Oxbow Overlook The Medora Musical and why it's the thing to do in the gateway town How long to spend here, and why rushing this park takes away the magic Your task for today: Which wildlife are you most excited to see in Theodore Roosevelt National Park: the wild horses, the rough-and-tumble bison, the very vocal prairie dogs, or something else?

Activities outside of schooling can play an important role in this, with activities such as sports, serving in the parish, and groups such as scouting.   These advisors give us some examples of how this can be done and provide us with advice on how to find balance.  Links mentioned & relevant:  Articles from the Academics & Advising section of the Help Center:  Scheduling Recommendations  Cultivating Friendships and Enriching Social Activities for Homeschool Students   Scheduling the Elementary and Middle School Day  Extracurricular Activity Tracker  High Academics, Non-Academics, and Activities  Related Kolbecast episodes:  258 Seeking, Finding, and Building Community - Groups and Extracurriculars  313 Preparing for a Stellar School Year  320 College Considerations  125 Call the Advisor  284 Flexibility and Structure for the Early Years with Pam Castor and Emmanuelle Wilhelm  Have questions or suggestions for future episodes or a story of your own experience that you'd like to share? We'd love to hear from you!

This episode originally published in 2025, but since a new round of GMAC Tours just started up again, I want to make sure new listeners have a chance to learn all about these one-of-a-kind, free events.  Enjoy! - GMAC Zach Thinking about business school? Don't go it alone. In this episode, we're hitting the road as we explore GMAC Tours, the global events that bring top business schools and aspiring students together under one roof. Host Zach is joined by Maggie Cooley, Director of Events and Marketing for GMAC Tours, to unpack why these MBA & Masters Tour events are more than just information sessions. They're networking goldmines, resume-boosting bootcamps, and overall application game-changers. You'll hear what really happens at a Tour event, how to make a lasting impression, and why attending one could help you discover your best-fit program (especially one you've never considered before). Whether you're years away from applying or finalizing your target school list, this episode will help you make the most of one of the most impactful tools on your business school journey. Find a Tour near you: https://www.mba.com/connect-with-schools/gmac-tours/events-calendar Key Takeaways 1. GMAC Tours are free, curated events designed for every stage of the b-school journey. Whether you're exploring your options or ready to apply, there's value for everyone—from keynotes and meetups to resume clinics and GMAT info sessions. 2. The biggest asset? Face time with admissions reps. Attendees meet directly with decision-makers from top global business schools, building authentic relationships that can strengthen applications and inform school selection. 3. Thoughtful preparation goes a long way. Doing research ahead of time, preparing smart questions, and showing genuine curiosity helps you stand out, both in scheduled meetups and casual booth chats. 4. Be open to discovering new schools. 80% of attendees consider a new program they hadn't previously thought about. Don't just target the usual suspects—use the event to explore your full range of options. 5. Your application can benefit directly. From resume feedback to application tips and admissions insights, the information (and impression) you gain at a Tour event can translate into a stronger, more personalized application.

Your kids are glued to screens all summer and you are running out of ideas to pull them away. But what if 3 items from your kitchen pantry could spark more curiosity than any tablet ever could? Shark Week is the perfect excuse to make it happen.This episode walks you through 3 hands-on shark week activities that bust common shark myths, teach real marine biology, and get your kids off screens without a single worksheet or complicated plan:✅Why hands-on observation builds deeper thinking skills than any screen or textbook✅Discover how Shark Week can spark curiosity beyond marine biology, inspiring kids to ask better questions and pursue learning on their own.✅How following your child's natural interests develops confidence, critical thinking, and the drive to keep learning long after the lesson ends.✅Practical ways to replace passive learning with hands-on exploration that encourages curiosity, resilience, and independent learners.Resources for You:Shark Unit Study Flash Sale — save $10 with code SHARKWEEK (you pay only $5)Show Notes:Your Secret Weapon for Getting Kids Off Screens This SummerIt's a hot summer morning in July. You planned for a peaceful, screen-free summer. Instead, you're exhausted, and that phrase — Mom, I'm bored — is just echoing through your house. There's a magnetic pull between your kids and their tablets, the TV, the video games. And somehow that is winning the battle, especially with high-energy boys. They're zoning out in front of those screens and you feel guilty because you want them to love learning, not consume a bunch of pixels.I've got a secret weapon for you today. You don't need a complicated curriculum or a lecture to fix this. You need a topic that instantly captures their imagination. And with Shark Week coming up next week, we're going to use sharks to get your kids off those tablets and into real learning — right at the kitchen table.Mary Anning and the Power of CuriosityBefore we dive in, I want to give you a little historical background. There was a woman named Mary Anning in the 19th century. She was completely self-taught. She lived in England, gathered fossils, and had no formal science background. Out of 9 kids, only Mary and her older brother Joseph survived to adulthood. Life was hard.But she had a dad with great influence. Her father Richard was a cabinet maker and an avid fossil collector. His five-year-old sidekick Mary would come along and he would show her how to collect fossils at the beaches where they worked. He meticulously taught her how to locate specimens, get them out safely, and clean the delicate finds. Then he would put what they found in the storefront of his cabinet shop.Dads, you have a great impact on your kids.Mary was denied formal education — like most women and girls of her time — but she taught herself to read. And she used curiosity, drive, and perseverance to make contributions to science that are still recognized today. That is what I want for your kids in this episode.Before You Start — Grab Three ThingsGo to your kitchen cabinet right now and get these three things. A bottle of cooking oil. A small empty plastic bottle. And a handful of pennies. Just put them on the counter. Physically setting them out says — today is a hands-on learning day.Myth Buster #1: Sharks Sink Like Stones If They Stop SwimmingThe myth is that sharks sink like stones if they stop swimming. Here's the truth — bony fish have swim bladders filled with gas to float. Sharks don't have swim bladders. Instead, they have a massive, oily liver that acts like a natural flotation device. Oil is lighter than water, so that giant oily liver keeps them buoyant.Here's the activity. Fill your sink with water. Drop in your empty bottle and let your kids watch. It sinks. Now ask them — what do you think happens if I fill the bottle with oil? Don't tell them. Let them observe and be curious. Fill the bottle with cooking oil, close it tightly, and drop it in. It floats. The oil is lighter than the water and rises to the top. Super easy, but so powerful.Myth Buster #2: Sharks Can Smell Blood From Miles Away Through MagicIt's not magic — it's a highly acute olfactory navigation system. Sharks track scent gradients through water currents. God gave them the ability to smell, and that is essentially their steering wheel. Like we drive a car with our eyes, sharks navigate with their smell.Here's the activity. Get a bowl of warm water. Have your kids sit perfectly still. Drop red food coloring on one side and watch what happens. The current in that warm water carries the food coloring across the bowl — just like the way a scent pathway travels to a shark through the ocean. Let them observe, ask questions, and come up with conclusions.This is exactly what Charlotte Mason was talking about when she said kids learn best when they're allowed to interact with the real world — not reading dry textbook summaries. When kids use their own senses to observe nature, they develop deep analytical skills. No prepackaged textbook or screen can duplicate this.Myth Buster #3: Losing a Tooth Is an Emergency for a SharkFor us humans, we get two sets of teeth. Lose one from the second set and it's gone for good. Sharks are completely different. They have a conveyor belt system of teeth and can grow up to 35,000 teeth in a lifetime. Their teeth don't have deep roots, so they fall out easily while hunting — and new ones just move right into place.Here's the activity. You'll need Play-Doh or modeling clay and your pennies — or small pebbles. Roll the clay into a thick strip representing a shark's jaw. Push the pennies in one by one, layered behind each other like shingles on a roof. Have one of your kids pull out the front tooth and watch how the others shift right into place. Simple visual, powerful concept.What to Do From HereThose are your three myth busters — the oily liver, the olfactory steering system, and the conveyor belt tooth system. From here, get your library card and spend no more than five minutes searching sharks online. Pick up two or three books, or a documentary if you have DVDs. Give your kids immediate, high-quality material to dig into right after they make a mess at the kitchen table.Hands-on learning gets kids off the screens. I know for a fact — when I go visit my grandkids, they are not on their screens. They're not even watching TV. But it does take energy to plan, to find the books, to build activities, and to organize a week from scratch.If you want to skip the planning completely and be ready for Shark Week with everything done for you, grab our Shark Unit Study. Today is day one of our flash sale — use the code SHARKWEEK by Friday and save $10, which means you pay only $5. You get shark life cycle activities, a curated list of books and videos with activities to go with each one, these three myth busters, shark-themed snacks, crafts, shark binoculars, and an ocean unit tie-in as well. It's plug-and-play for your summer.If this sparked one little idea, would you share it with one homeschool mom or your co-op? That would mean the world to me.

It's a hundred degrees outside and your kids are asking what's next — Melissa Paredes, Senior Director of Content Marketing at Wycliffe Bible Translators, has an answer that's actually good for them. She joins Brian From to talk about Kate and Mac, a free series of printable, downloadable resources Wycliffe has been producing for twelve years: kids travel the world with a 14-year-old missionary kid named Kate and her pet macaw Mac, learning about different languages, cultures, and how much God loves people regardless of where they live or what language they speak. Activities include decoding exercises that simulate what it's like to encounter scripture in a new language, games, crafts, recipes, and devotionals — all available monthly at wycliffe.org/kids. Melissa also shares her own story: a missionary kid who moved overseas at 12 and lived there through 18, she credits those cross-cultural years with shaping everything about her worldview. For parents of teens and young adults, Wycliffe's Purpose 7-9 resource — including an interactive quiz, devotional, and discussion guide — is available at wycliffe.org/purpose.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
