To speak with an advisor and map out your student's next steps, apply for a free Family Action Call with us at admittedly.co/apply. In this episode of the Admittedly Podcast, Thomas Caleel explores one of the most powerful but overlooked advantages in college admissions: planning ahead. Drawing on more than two decades of experience in highly selective admissions, he explains why the most successful families don't leave outcomes to chance but instead make thoughtful, flexible decisions early so students can build academic rigor, explore interests, and stay positioned for competitive opportunities. Thomas breaks down the difference between healthy planning and overplanning, showing how early decisions around math placement, course rigor, summer strategy, and extracurricular focus can either expand or limit future options. He emphasizes that students don't need every step mapped out, but they do need direction, awareness, and intentional choices that evolve over time, reducing anxiety while strengthening admissions outcomes. Through real examples, Thomas illustrates how missed opportunities in early academic tracking and last-minute decision-making can quietly close doors to selective programs. He also explains how planning ahead allows students to explore interests with confidence while still staying aligned with long-term academic goals. Key Takeaways: • Planning ahead creates opportunity; waiting limits options. • Early academic choices — especially math track — can significantly impact future admissions paths. • Rigor matters, and students must position themselves early to access advanced coursework. • Summers should build on academic interests, not be left to chance. • Sophomore year difficulty increases — preparation prevents unnecessary stress. • Conversations about interests should be exploratory, not pressure-driven. • Junior year planning is urgent; competitive opportunities require early action. • Momentum matters more than perfection — starting now is always better than waiting. This episode is especially valuable for parents of middle schoolers, freshmen, sophomores, and juniors who want to approach admissions with clarity instead of panic. Thomas offers practical guidance on starting conversations early, helping students identify genuine interests, and maintaining flexibility while moving forward with intention. Listeners can continue the conversation by following @admittedlyco on Instagram, TikTok, and YouTube, where Thomas answers questions and shares weekly admissions guidance.

Lisa Marker-Robbins argues that course scheduling is more than fulfilling academic requirements — it's a strategic signal of direction, fit, and readiness. Through her lens as a master career coach, she reframes learning as a lifelong tool for validation, confidence, and momentum.In this episode, she walks high school students, college students, and graduates through how to use classes, credentials, and real-world experiences to stand out in both admissions and hiring. Her approach emphasizes intentional choices that lower anxiety and open opportunities at every stage of early adulthood.In this episode, you'll discover:How course scheduling can signal direction in college, career, and lifeThe role of intentional learning during high school, college, and early adulthoodUsing credentials, experiences, and course choices to build employable skills and a strong resumeReframing education as lifelong, exploratory, and strategic rather than obligatoryKey Takeaways: For High School Families (01:16): Intentional course selection can validate career interests or demonstrate fit to colleges/employers using tools like dual enrollment, industry credentials, and credit flex options. For College Students (09:32): Students should protect space in their schedules to pursue real-world experiences (internships, research, projects) and short-course credentials (e.g., Coursera) that employers increasingly prioritize over second majors. For Graduates Not In School (11:37): Clarity can be regained post-graduation by treating job postings as signals for what skills or credentials to pursue next, and by viewing learning as lifelong rather than tied to a classroom. Universal Relevance (14:44): Scheduling choices—whether in high school, college, or adulthood—act as competitive career signals that lower anxiety, build momentum, and shape future options when done with intention.“Getting unstuck is often going to start with learning something new.” – Lisa Marker-RobbinsEpisode References:#169 The Hidden Impact of College Major Selection on Admissions with Rick Clark https://www.flourishcoachingco.com/169LinkedIn Guide https://flourishcoachingco.com/linkedinLaunch Career Clarity Course https://flourishcoachingco.com/courseFlourish Coaching Newsletter https://flourishcoachingco.com/newsletterBYU Online High School https://is.ce2.byu.edu/#/Coursera https://coursera.orgGet Lisa's Free on-demand video: THE CAREER IDENTIFICATION COMPASS: How To Be Certain Your 15 To 25 Year Old is On The Right Path to Launch With Confidence–Not Confusion: flourishcoachingco.com/video Connect with Lisa:Website: https://www.flourishcoachingco.com/YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@flourishcoachingcoFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/flourishcoachingco/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/flourishcoachingco/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/flourish-coaching-co

What if college admissions isn't about being more impressive, but about being more clear?In this episode, I break down why so many hardworking, high-achieving students are rejected from top colleges, and what actually separates students who get admitted from those who don't.Drawing on recent early-decision results (including acceptances to Yale, Dartmouth, Cornell, and Vanderbilt, plus $100,000 scholarships) I explain the hidden trap families fall into when they chase what they think admissions officers want.You'll learn:Why “doing more” often makes applications weaker, not strongerThe two questions admissions officers are really trying to answerHow the Impressiveness Trap creates noise instead of clarityWhat successful students do differently to become “obvious admits”Why starting earlier (8th–11th grade) dramatically reduces stress and increases optionsI also share details about the upcoming live workshop, Hacking College Admissions, where you can learn how to build a clear, strategic plan that actually works.

Send us a textWhat if a single decision—book the ticket, join the band, raise your hand—could tilt your life toward courage and curiosity? That's the energy running through our conversation with Stephanie Nunley, Senior Director of Admissions and Recruitment Strategy at Case Western Reserve's Weatherhead School of Management, who brings world travel, Division I band grit, and people-first admissions wisdom to the table.We kick off with vivid travel stories that double as life lessons: a five-city sprint through India, a Celtic tour of Dublin and Edinburgh (yes, Steelers flags in Ireland), and a mind-bending Alaska summer where the sun never sets. Each trip rewired routines and sharpened resourcefulness—qualities that power real careers. From there, we dive into the discipline behind Bowling Green's D1 band: Hell Week heat, rapid-fire halftime shows, and the camaraderie that teaches timing, resilience, and attention to detail. It's performance training that translates seamlessly to leadership, product launches, and public speaking.Then we open the hood on admissions strategy at Weatherhead. Stephanie shares how she blends data with empathy, recruiting locally across Ohio and Pennsylvania while engaging global talent for specialized master's programs in finance, accountancy, supply chain management, and business analytics. The big lesson for applicants: clarity of purpose wins. Tell a real story, show your impact, and engage—because people don't want to be talked at; they want to be part of something. We even swap notes on crowd work, from comedy clubs to Zoom rooms, and why participation turns passive listeners into invested collaborators.There's a dash of paranormal chills—a night in a haunted prison—and a warm, practical challenge to close: try one new thing every yearSubscribe for exclusive content: https://www.buzzsprout.com/1530455/support Buzzsprout - Let's get your podcast launched!Start for FREETactical BrotherhoodThe Tactical Brotherhood is a movement to support America.Dubby EnergyFROM GAMERS TO GYM JUNKIES TO ENTREPRENEURS, OUR PRODUCT IS FOR ANYONE WHO WANTS TO BE BETTER.ShankitgolfOur goal here at Shankitgolf is for everyone to have a great time on and off the golf courseSweet Hands SportsElevate your game with Sweet Hands Sports!

What does it mean for a church to thrive when membership is declining, resources feel scarce, and the future is uncertain? In this episode, Loren is joined by Kory Wilcoxson and Erin Cash to talk about their book, Thriving Church: What We Can Learn from Faithful Congregations, and the real-world practices of congregations navigating change with courage and clarity. Drawing from years of congregational research and ministry experience, the conversation explores how churches can remain faithful to their calling without being governed by fear, metrics, or nostalgia. Kory and Erin reflect on the importance of grounding ministry in Scripture, revisiting mission and vision regularly, and honoring the past without being constrained by it. Rather than equating thriving with growth, the episode makes a case for faithfulness, imagination, and adaptability—especially in mainline Protestant contexts where decline is often assumed to be the whole story. Topics include: Why thriving is not the same as numerical growth How fear distorts mission—and how clarity restores it What it looks like for a church to be both “dying” and thriving Honoring history without letting it become a barrier to change Why Scripture still matters deeply for faithful congregations This episode is a grounded, hopeful conversation for pastors and church leaders discerning how to lead well in seasons of transition.   Rev. Dr. Kory Wilcoxson has served as the Senior Pastor of Crestwood Christian Church in Lexington, Ky., since 2009. Prior to moving to Lexington, he served for twelve years as a pastor in the Chicago and Indianapolis areas. Wilcoxson holds degrees from Indiana University ((BA in Speech Communication), Ohio University (MA in Interpersonal Communication), Christian Theological Seminary (Master of Divinity), and Lexington Theological Seminary (Doctor of Divinity). Wilcoxson has served in a number of leadership positions within the Kentucky Region and Christian Church (Disciples of Christ) denomination, including moderator of the Kentucky Regional Board, chair of the Board of Directors for the Council on Christian Unity (now the Christian Unity and Interfaith Ministry), and member of the Board of Directors for Disciples Home Missions. Wilcoxson is also the executive director of Compassionate Lexington, an organization which seeks to promote the core value of compassion through concrete action. Wilcoxson has two adult daughters: Sydney and Molly. He enjoys reading, running, and rooting on his beloved Cincinnati Reds.   Erin Cash is the Project Director for the Thriving Congregations Project at Lexington Theological Seminary.  Prior to this role, Erin served as Director of Admissions at LTS for over 8 years.  She is a graduate of Greenville University in Greenville, IL, Candler School of Theology at Emory University in Atlanta, GA, and Lexington Theological Seminary in Lexington, KY. Ordained in 2006, Erin enjoys the opportunities she has to serve in pulpit supply, guest lectures, and as a lay leader in her own congregation. Erin has served as Moderator for the Christian Church In Kentucky, as co-chair of the Local Arrangements team for Regional Assembly, and as co-chair for the Local Arrangements Team of the General Assembly. She also serves as Kentucky's representative to the General Board, chairing the General Assembly Planning Committee there.  Erin is deeply passionate about the work of the local and the Regional church. She is co-author of the book Thriving Church: What You Can Learn from Faithful Congregations now available from Chalice Press. Erin is part of a clergy couple.  Her husband, Chris, is the Senior Pastor at FCC Georgetown, having formerly served North Middletown Christian Church and Oxford Christian Church.  She is mom to Ella, who is a Junior at Murray State University. In her free time, Erin enjoys baking, hiking, exploring the National Parks, baseball games, and any experience that involves a lake, pool, or the ocean.   Mentioned Resources:

In this episode, Lisa and Rick discuss:How a student's choice of future intended major impacts their college admissions chancesThe role of holistic review in determining “Fit To Major” (FTM)The challenges students face when trying to change majors after admissionWhy flexibility is essential in the college application processKey Takeaways: Colleges often evaluate whether a student's academic choices and extracurricular activities align with their intended major, so applying without evidence of interest in that field can weaken an application, even at schools that do not directly admit by major.Some universities, particularly for highly competitive majors like computer science and business, have strict policies that prevent or limit students from switching into these programs after enrollment, making initial major selection a critical decision.Admissions officers look for patterns of demonstrated interest in their major, expecting engineering applicants to take advanced math and science courses or business applicants to show entrepreneurial involvement, which helps determine if a student is truly prepared for their chosen major.Students who remain open to alternative entry pathways—such as summer admissions, starting at a different campus, or transferring later—increase their chances of reaching their academic and career goals, even if they don't initially get into their first-choice program. “The more kids can put themselves in a position where they have choices and options, the better off they're going to be.” – Rick ClarkAbout Rick Clark: Rick Clark is Georgia Tech's inaugural Executive Director for Strategic Student Access, leading efforts to expand enrollment, access, and affordability. Previously, he spent 15 years as AVP and Executive Director of Undergraduate Admission, strengthening Tech's brand, academic profile, and enrollment.

Emergency departments across the U.S. are under unprecedented strain, with overcrowding, staffing shortages, and inpatient bed constraints converging into a throughput crisis. The American Hospital Association reports that hospital capacity and workforce growth have lagged, intensifying delays from arrival to disposition. At the same time, advances in artificial intelligence are moving from experimental to operational—raising the stakes for how technology can meaningfully improve patient flow rather than add complexity.So, how can emergency departments reduce bottlenecks and move patients more efficiently through care without compromising clinical judgment or trust?Welcome to I Don't Care. In the latest episode, host Dr. Kevin Stevenson sits down with Mitch Quinn, Director of AI/ML at ChoreoED, to explore how AI-driven insights can help hospitals anticipate admissions and discharges earlier, coordinate downstream services, and ultimately improve ED throughput. Their conversation spans the real-world operational challenges ED leaders face, the practical application of machine learning in high-acuity settings, and what it takes to deploy AI tools that clinicians actually trust and use.What you'll learn…How AI models trained on a hospital's own historical data can accurately anticipate admissions up to hours earlier, enabling parallel workflows.Why focusing on “high-certainty” admissions and discharges—rather than rare edge cases—creates immediate operational value in the ED.How adaptive, continuously retrained models can support both experienced clinicians and newer providers in high-turnover environments.Mitch Quinn is a Director of AI and Machine Learning and a computer scientist with 20+ years of experience building production-grade AI systems across healthcare and cybersecurity. He specializes in deep learning, large-scale model architecture, and end-to-end ML pipelines, with leadership roles spanning applied research at Blue Cross NC, enterprise AI consulting, and real-time cyber threat detection. His career highlights include designing high-performance deep neural networks, anomaly detection systems operating at enterprise scale, and foundational software frameworks used by large engineering organizations.

In this episode of The Daily Herold, Jon Herold breaks down a packed news cycle centered on national security, accountability, and government overreach. The show opens with discussion around fentanyl being officially designated as a weapon of mass destruction and what that designation could unlock in terms of enforcement and strategy. Jon also dives into newly surfaced FBI communications indicating there was no probable cause to raid Mar-a-Lago, just ahead of Jack Smith's closed-door testimony. Additional topics include cannabis reclassification discussions, economic signals like oil, gold, silver, and Bitcoin, and the growing frustration among Americans demanding real accountability from federal institutions. As always, the episode blends sharp analysis, audience interaction, and candid commentary on the state of the country and the pressure building behind the scenes.
