Principal Matters: The School Leader's Podcast with William D. Parker
Lessons in Sailing Upwind William D. Parker, July 9, 2026 When my friend Dave Sandowich, a retired principal with 20+ years of admin experience, invited me to go sailing with me off the Chesapeake Bay, I was thrilled. This would be the third time he had taken me on the water, and my son Jack, now 20 years old, was coming along. We sailed 60 miles over three days, from Dave's place on Kent Island to Annapolis, Maryland, and then south to a quiet cove. Sailing upwind was the most challenging and exhilarating part of the trip. Calm waters and quiet moments were nice too, but Dave was quick to point out that sailing upwind takes work – a mastery of understanding the sail and jib, the use of crewmates to help you come about, and knowledge and skill to stay on track. As Dave told me the first time we sailed together in 2019, “Sailing is a lot like leadership,” he said. “On a sailboat your destination may be directly from where the wind is coming from. A sailboat can't sail directly into the wind but it can work its way up wind by sailing at angles off the wind and working its way up wind to the destination. It is more work and will take more time but you will get there if you stay the course, apply your sailing knowledge and get the feedback from your instruments and instincts and adjust along the way.” Whenever I think about resistance in leadership, I think about sailing into the wind. Leaders have a destination in sight for their teachers, students and communities. The question is: what do you do when you experience pushback and resistance toward reaching those goals. What has facing resistance taught you? This week, I met with a group of leaders for a retreat, and I posed that question to them. Some of their responses included: “Pushback causes me to reassess my own understanding of mission and vision and if I'm effectively and clearly communicating it with others.” “Perhaps there is misunderstanding or misrepresentation of our goals that I need to recommunicate.” “It's my responsibility to realign expectations while keeping in mind that relationships are complex. Reaching my goal may not be a straight shot. Sometimes I have to work with people until they come around to a clearer perspective.” “Leadership is more like chess than checkers. It requires wisdom to know how to maneuver among people and systems while still reaching the right outcome.” Each one of these statements reminds me that the work of leaders is complex, and navigating complexity takes more than just a good handbook or code of conduct. It requires wisdom to step into the complexities and determine the next best step for moving forward. Having said that, here are a few thoughts to keep in mind as you sail a route in the coming school year: People – Investing in people means taking time to know who is on your team, gaining their trust, and remembering that development is not a one time event. Systems – Developing systems means analyzing your operations, processes, routines, and procedures in light of your students, teachers, and community members. Ask yourself what it is like to be on the other side of any activity at your school. How are you aligning the system involved for the outcome you want them to experience? Belief – Encouraging collective efficacy among your team members means being clear on what you believe is most important for the outcomes and impact happening around student learning. These three reminders bring us back to commitments to people, systems, and belief – the essentials for any flourishing school community. Anyone trying to navigate or move forward an entire organization or community must be prepared to face some winds of resistance. You can either allow the pushback to cause you to throw anchor, drop sails, or turn around. Choose Your Hard Our last day together, Dave and Jack and I were having breakfast together, when I asked Dave what were some lessons in leadership he's learned along the way. Dave is enjoying retirement and a lot of time on his boat with family and friends. When I asked him what lessons he was learning, he looked at me and Jack and said, “You have to learn to choose your hard.” “What do you mean by that?” I asked. “Take my physical fitness, for example,” he continued. “I choose the hard by keeping my workout routine. I don't really want to do pullups, planks and pushups, but I choose that hard over the hard of declining health, higher blood pressure, or losing my mobility over time. You choose your hard one way or the other.” Life and leadership teach us a lot of lessons along the way if we slow down enough to listen and reflect. In leadership, the harder and wiser option often requires sailing into the winds of resistance. If it wasn't hard, everyone would do it by default. But good outcomes often require hard choices. When I think about the goal of schools to build a community of learning, I'm encouraged that the task is worth it for students, for teachers, and for communities. It's also worth it for leaders. On our last day of sailing, Dave navigated the boat back toward Kent Island. He gave each of us a turn at the helm. I tried to soak in the memories of sun, waves, and the warmth of friendship and family. Your school year ahead will be full of unexpected situations, and the truth is: you don't choose the winds you encounter. But you can choose how you respond to them. As you sail into the winds of a new school year, may you learn to pivot, to navigate, and to recalibrate along the way. The destination and experiences you reach will look different in each journey, but the mindset you have along the way may be what makes all the difference. Now It's Your Turn What are some experiences in pushback or resistance you've faced, and what lessons did you learn? How can you apply those lessons to navigating with wisdom “upwind” in the school year ahead?

A child's mutilated torso surfaced from the Thames near Shakespeare's Globe in 2001, and more than two decades later no one has been convicted of killing the boy investigators could only call Adam.EPISODE BLOG PAGE (includes sources): https://weirddarkness.com/TorsoInTheThamesREAD or DOWNLOAD the full transcript of this episode: https://weirddarkness.tiny.us/3h6yrmk5FEATURED STORIES IN THIS EPISODE: Most people, when they think of the end of their lives, want to feel that they have accomplished something of significance. To leave a lasting legacy. But it is much more rare for someone to accomplish something significant – after they are dead! (Done By The Dead) *** Mrs. Elizabeth G. Wharton was a pillar of society in Baltimore, Maryland in the late 1800s. That is, until she was accused of murdering General William Scott Ketchum. (The Baltimore Borgia) *** For every legitimate and fascinating find by geologists, there seems to be a fraudulent find somewhere else trying to fool the masses. This has been a problem since geology became a thing – and one of the most fascinating of these true tales is the one about Baringer's Lying Stones. (The Lying Stones) *** A strange, ape-like creature with glowing eyes in England might really be, as some believe, a specter of the night. (Man-Monkey of the Night) *** It's hard to understand how human sacrifice has ever been a reality in any point in history – but what if you were to learn that evidence of it showed up in London, England… in 2001? (Torso In The River) *** A would-be geisha murders her lover… but the events leading up to and during the death make for a fascinatingly dark story. (The Murderess Geisha) *** When it comes to spectral animals, we're more than familiar with black dogs or hell hounds, ghostly cats, horses carrying a headed or headless phantom, even a ghost bear rumored to haunt the Tower of London… but have you ever heard of the American Southwest's ghost camels?

Copyright ©2026, Weird Darkness.Originally aired: January, 2021This episode of Weird Darkness moves from ghost camels haunting the Arizona desert to corpses that kept making history after death, a Baltimore poisoning that gripped a courtroom for weeks, a professor fooled by carved stones, a child's murder in the Thames that London police have never solved, a Tokyo geisha who killed the man she loved, and a glowing-eyed creature on an English canal bridge.It opens in the American southwest, where the U.S. War Department imported some seventy-two camels in 1857 to haul supplies, only to turn the animals loose in the desert when the Civil War broke out and the soldiers tired of their foul temper and habit of spooking horses. Wild camels roamed Arizona for decades afterward, and one became legend as the Red Ghost — a beast blamed for trampling a woman to death in 1883 and later seen carrying a dead man lashed to its back, a rider who eventually decayed until a human skull dropped from the saddle in front of a group of startled prospectors. An Arizona farmer finally shot the animal in 1893, still wearing the leather straps that had held its corpse rider in place.From there the episode turns to figures who kept shaping the world after they died. A gang of Chicago counterfeiters led by "Big Jim" Kennally plotted in 1876 to steal Abraham Lincoln's body from his Springfield tomb and ransom it for a jailed engraver, foiled by a Secret Service informant working for the very agency Lincoln himself had signed into existence. A grave robber broke into George Washington's crypt at Mount Vernon in 1830 hunting the president's skull and made off with the wrong one. The British philosopher Jeremy Bentham left instructions to have his body dissected and mummified, and it sits on display at University College London to this day. And in the ninth century Pope Stephen VI dug up his predecessor Formosus, dressed the rotting corpse in papal vestments, propped it up for trial, found it guilty, and had it thrown into the Tiber.Next comes Baltimore in 1871, where Elizabeth Wharton, a respected society widow, hosted General William Scott Ketchum in her home on Hamilton Place until he fell suddenly ill and died with twenty grains of tartar emetic in his stomach — fifteen is enough to kill. Police discovered she had bought sixty grains days earlier, and a financial advisor named Eugene Van Ness nearly died the same way after she served him a drink. Her forty-two-day poison trial in Annapolis exhausted the medical and chemical experts of the day, and after deliberating through the night the jury acquitted her of murder.The episode then crosses to Germany, where Johann Beringer, a celebrated professor at the University of Würzburg, spent 1725 collecting strange carved stones dug up on Mount Eibelstadt by teenage boys he had hired — figures of birds, lizards, comets, and the name of God rendered in Hebrew. Convinced they were the handiwork of God himself, he published a book on them called the Lithographiae Wirceburgensis, only to learn the nearly two thousand stones had been planted by two envious colleagues, J. Ignatz Roderick and Johann Georg von Eckhart, who thought him an arrogant know-it-all and wanted to humble him.From an academic hoax the episode moves to an unsolved horror. On September 21st, 2001, a child's headless, limbless torso surfaced from the Thames near the Globe Theatre, wrapped in orange cloth, and London's Metropolitan Police could give the boy no name but Adam. Forensic analysis of poison and minerals in his remains traced him to the Benin region of Nigeria and showed he had been paralyzed and drained of blood in what investigators believed was a muti ritual killing. Nelson Mandela made an international appeal for information, and traffickers including Kingsley Ojo and a caregiver named Joyce Osagiede were investigated, but no one has ever been convicted and the boy's true identity has never been confirmed.The episode carries that darkness into 1936 Tokyo, where Sada Abe strangled her lover Kichizo Ishida in an inn after a days-long affair, then took a kitchen knife to his body and carried a severed part of him away in her handbag. Her capture two days later set off a national obsession the papers called "Sada mania," and her testimony about killing the man she refused to share became a bestseller in a country where such candor was scandalous. She was sentenced to six years, served her time as a model prisoner, and vanished from public life sometime after 1970.The episode closes on a cold English night in January 1879, when a furniture hauler crossing Bridge 39 over the Shropshire Union Canal near the village of Ranton was charged by a shaggy, ape-like creature with glowing eyes that leapt onto his cart and terrified his horse. When he swung his whip at the thing, the lash passed straight through its body, and the creature bolted down toward the canal and vanished. The folklorist Charlotte Burne later learned from the village constable that the sightings had begun only days after a man drowned in that same canal, in a place where people believed a violent death could send someone back in the shape of a beast.
The Banneker-Douglass-Tubman Museum is much more than a museum—it is Maryland's official home for African American history and culture, preserving stories that have shaped not only the state but the nation. This week on the Local Business Spotlight, Executive Director Chanel Compton Johnson shares how the museum serves as both a destination and a gateway, connecting visitors to African American heritage sites and stories throughout Maryland. Johnson discusses the museum's current exhibitions, including She Speaks: Black Women Artists and the Power of Historical Memory, plans for a reimagined permanent exhibit, and why the museum's mission extends beyond preserving history to helping visitors better understand the present. She also talks about the museum's role in education, community partnerships, youth programming, and the importance of making African American history accessible to everyone. It's an engaging conversation about history, art, education, and why this remarkable Annapolis institution deserves far more attention than being called a "hidden gem." If you've never visited the Banneker-Douglass-Tubman Museum—or haven't been in a while—this episode is a great place to start. Have a listen.

Storycomic Presents: Interviews with Amazing Storytellers and Artists
#BarbaraCarrollRoberts #WhenGeorgeWashingtonBowed #AnneYvonneGilbert #CreativeEditions #NonfictionPictureBook #KidsHistory #AmericanHistoryForKids #GeorgeWashington #RevolutionaryWar #AnnapolisMaryland #CivicEducation #Democracy #ReadAloud #BookInterview #Storycomic On this episode, I'm joined by children's author Barbara Carroll Roberts to talk about her new nonfiction picture book When George Washington Bowed to the New Nation, illustrated by Anne Yvonne Gilbert and published by Creative Editions (release date August 11, 2026). (barbaracarrollroberts.com) The book zooms in on a surprising moment after the Revolutionary War: Washington, celebrated commander of the Continental Army, resigns his commission—not as a formality, but as a public decision to give up power. Barbara traces Washington from New York City (after the last British troops depart) to Annapolis, Maryland, where he submits his resignation to the Continental Congress—an action that helped set the tone for a democracy led by civilians, not generals. (bookshop.org) We talk about the behind-the-scenes research—letters from witnesses, Washington's own handwritten speech, and what it's like turning big history into a book for young readers (recommended age 9+).

For 25 years, Kacy Paide has helped people tackle the paper piles, packed closets, hidden boxes, and overwhelmed workspaces they often feel they should be able to manage on their own. Through The Inspired Office, Paide focuses on offices and paper wherever it accumulates, whether that means a desk, dining room table, basement, or a closet filled with what she calls "time capsules." In this week's Local Business Spotlight, Petty explains why getting organized is often less about buying containers and more about understanding habits, emotions, and the systems that will actually work for each person. She also discusses the value of visible filing systems, why going completely paperless is not realistic for everyone, and how her virtual small-group programs are helping people well beyond the Annapolis area. Kacy also shares how she launched the business straight out of college, built it largely through word of mouth, and is now using 25 years of client stories and experience to write her first book. The Inspired Office also offers videos, a free email crash course, an online assessment, and other resources for anyone ready to make their paper life feel a little less overwhelming. Have a listen.

For Rear Admiral (Sel.) Putnam Browne and his daughter Francesca, the Navy isn't just a career, it's the family business.对海军少将普特南·布朗和他的女儿弗朗西斯卡来说，海军不仅仅是一份职业，还是家族事业。I definitely think he has a major influence on me whether he meant to or not.我绝对认为他对我有重大影响，无论他是否有意为之。But he taught me so much and I knew that it was the right choice for me because of him.他教会了我很多，我知道这对我来说是因为他而做的正确的选择。Francesca attended the prestigious US Naval Academy in Annapolis, Maryland. Like her father, she rode on a Navy crew team.弗朗西丝卡曾就读于马里兰州安纳波利斯著名的美国海军学院。和她父亲一样，她曾效力于海军赛艇队。When a sudden hip injury kept her from rowing, Francesca switched to steering a boat as a coxswain for the men's team, making them the team's first-ever father-daughter duo.当弗朗西斯卡突然髋部受伤，无法再划船时，她转而担任男子队的舵手来指挥船只，这使他们成为该队有史以来第一对父女组合。That was another very cool transition because we had this, another shared kind of bond.这是另一个很酷的转变，因为我们有了这种共同的纽带。Francesca sailed her Naval Academy cruise aboard the USS Abraham Lincoln aircraft carrier, the same ship her father commanded.弗朗西丝卡乘坐亚伯拉罕·林肯号航空母舰在海军学院巡航，就是她父亲指挥的那艘船。So when coronavirus precautions prevented a big Navy graduation last month, Francesca had an idea.当上个月新冠病毒防控措施导致大型海军毕业典礼无法举行时， 弗朗西斯卡有了一个想法。She asked if I would commission her and do it at the Lincoln Memorial since Lincoln means so much to our family.她问我是否可以委托她在林肯纪念堂做这件事，因为林肯号对我们家意义重大。We were the only people there. It was I think 7 a.m.on kind of a rainy day and we stood right in front of Lincoln.那里只有我们几个人。我想当时是早上7点，天还下着雨，我们就站在林肯号的正前方。My dad administered the oath of office. I definitely choked up, maybe a little bit. It was a very heartfelt culmination of events.我的父亲主持了就职宣誓仪式。我肯定是哽咽了，可能有一点。这是一系列事件非常真挚的高潮时刻。The Navy wasn't such a clear-cut path for Lieutenant Commander Megan Isaac, whose dad is a retired Navy admiral.对于父亲是退役海军上将的梅根·艾萨克少校来说，海军生涯并不是一帆风顺的。I had always thought I was gonna be a ballerina. That was my plan.我一直以为我会成为芭蕾舞演员。那是我的计划。But on September 11th of Issac's senior year of high school, her nation was attacked, and her father was stationed at the Pentagon.但在艾萨克高中高年级的9月11日，她的国家遭到了攻击，而她的父亲当时驻扎在五角大楼。That day impacted me so much because someone who had been always a point of stability and assurance in my life, there was a question mark there for a few hours.那天对我影响很大，因为一直是我生命中的安全保证和可靠支柱的那个人，有几个小时都生死未卜。And someone had done that, someone had attacked our country, and I felt for the first time in my life very compelled to do something about it.有人袭击了我们的国家，而我生平第一次感到自己必须为此做些什么。In the following days after 9/11, Issac's father watched with pride and surprise as his daughter applied to attend the Navy's top Academy.在9·11事件后的接下来几天里，艾萨克的父亲既骄傲又惊讶地看着女儿申请进入海军顶级学院。I don't think he believes that I would ever actually be in a navy Academy, and they essentially take all of your personal belongings away.我觉得他不相信我真的会进海军学院，他们拿走了你所有的私人物品。They cut off your hair. I remember just thinking, did I just make the worst decision? What did I just do!他们剪掉了你的头发。我记得我只是在想，我是不是刚刚做出了最糟糕的决定？我刚刚做了什么！And that I feel like it's captured very well in my face in that moment, and my dad's like, it'll be great!我觉得那一刻都写在了我的脸上，我爸爸说太棒了!For me, it was a really rewarding and exciting day because I knew that she was up to the task.对我来说，这真是有意义且令人兴奋的一天，因为我知道她能胜任这项任务。The father-daughter duo has since shared countless Navy experiences throughout Issac's nearly 15 years of service.从那以后，这对父女在艾萨克近15年的服役生涯中分享了无数海军经历。And it turns out the USS Abraham Lincoln isn't just special for the Brownes.事实证明林肯号不仅仅是布朗一家的专利。In 2018 Isaac led the public affairs team of Lincoln, where her father had served 10 years prior as the destroyer squadron commander, and she was able to bring him back aboard.2018年，艾萨克领导了林肯号的公共事务团队，10年前她的父亲曾在该航母上担任驱逐舰中队指挥官，她还能让父亲重返舰上。He wasn't in uniform or it really didn't have any of the authorities. I had the uniform. I had the radio. I knew everyone on the ship.他没穿制服，也没有任何职权。我穿着制服，还带着无线电，船上的每个人我都认识。I'll tell you what I just couldn't have been more pleased and proud of watching my daughter in action. It was great.我跟你说，看到我女儿的表现，我感到无比的高兴和自豪。太棒了。The road hasn't always been easy, but the Navy has given the father and daughter a special bond. Because it's something that only we share.这条路并非总是一帆风顺，但海军让这对父女之间有了一种特殊的情感纽带。因为这是唯有我们共享的经历。There have been several times in my life, where I just have felt like I didn't know where to go, what the right direction was.在我的人生中，有好几次我只是感到迷茫，不知道何去何从，不知道正确的方向是什么。And he's always been the one to listen and make sure that I stayed on the right path.他一直都倾听我说话，确保我走上正确的道路。A path both pairs say was illuminated by their sense of adventure and their desire to serve. 这两对父女说，他们的冒险精神和服务意愿照亮了这条路。

Kaj Larsen did not follow the typical route to becoming a U.S. Navy SEAL. He was admitted to the U.S. Naval Academy but left after two years to focus on playing water polo at the collegiate level. A few years later he enlisted in the Navy and immediately tried to get a slot in Basic Underwater Demolition SEAL (BUD/s) training in Coronado, California. Those billets are not usually given to men who left Annapolis but Larsen managed to snag one after his lifeguarding skills made headlines. In this edition of Veterans Chronicles, Larsen explains his path to becoming a SEAL officer in more detail, his thoughts upon arriving at Coronado, and how the incredible intensity of the training started during the first hour of the very first day. Larsen also details the agony of "Hell Week," his most difficult moments during BUD/s, and what the seemingly ruthless instructors are trying to achieve through their relentless demands. Larsen also tells us what it was like being in the middle of this training when the 9/11 terrorist attacks struck the U.S.Finally, Larsen reveals what his first combat experience was like and how SEAL gear and tactics have evolved since his time in combat as a result of new technologies and adapting to the tactics of our enemies.

Four matches in seven days ends with a bang! Sam and Hiram break down the Blues' trip to Segra Field in Leesburg, where an early defensive miscue put Annapolis in a familiar 1-0 hole after just nine minutes. But this squad doesn't quit. Enter Mikey Johnson. In his first-ever USL minutes, Johnson took over the match — a poached equalizer off a corner, the assist on Ben Madore's 70th-minute go-ahead goal, and a late header to seal it. Add Matt Lenert finishing a Tyler Gabara corner and the Blues rode three set-piece goals to a 4-1 statement win and their second straight comeback victory. This week's episode features three post-match conversations:
Steven Pressfield is the bestselling author of titles such as Gates of Fire, Tides of War, and The Legend of Bagger Vance. He's also written numerous nonfiction books, such as The War of Art and Turning Pro. Collectively, his books have sold millions of copies and been translated into countless languages; Gates of Fire, in particular, is required reading at West Point and Annapolis and has been on the U.S. Marine Corps Commandant's Reading List for all ranks since 2002. But what I love about him is that he's incredibly open. He wrote for 27 years before he got his first novel published, and during that time, he worked 21 different jobs in 11 states. He taught school, drove tractor-trailers, worked in advertising and as a screenwriter in Hollywood, worked on offshore oil rigs, picked fruit as a migrant worker — you name it. His newest book is a novel called The Arcadian, and that's what we're getting into today. We're discussing the genesis of the book and how it maps onto many of the personal struggles we all overcome in our day-to-day lives, both as leaders and individuals. We also touch on a few topics that he's never really been asked before, as it pertains to his writing and why he can sometimes bounce in and out of writing both fiction and non-fiction. Regardless of your profession, you'll find something relatable here. He has a wonderful perspective and is a tremendous writer. WHAT YOU'LL LEARN IN THIS EPISODE: -Why fiction can be more effective at exploring deeper human truths than nonfiction when it comes to psychology, conflict, and motivation. -How great stories are effective because they keep the reader moving by planting breadcrumbs, small hints, and bits of information along the way. -How to improve your writing by honing your voice, finding the right voice for the project, and using a clear structure with recurring symbols and threads. -The things that still keep Steven curious and learning including the creative process, the Muse, and the idea that stories come from another dimension. -How he balances research with storytelling by grounding the reader in real details while still keeping the ideas organized and understandable Follow Steven: https://www.instagram.com/steven_pressfield/?hl=en https://stevenpressfield.com/ Follow Us: Website: ArtofCoaching.com Instagram: @coach_brettb X: @coach_brettb

PlayAnnapolis is working to make sure every child in the Annapolis area has the opportunity to participate in sports and recreation, regardless of cost, transportation or circumstance. In this episode of the Local Business Spotlight, Emily Tomasini, co-founder and president of PlayAnnapolis, and Stan Womack, founder of the Annapolis All Stars, discuss the barriers that keep children off the field and why access to organized sports matters far beyond the final score. PlayAnnapolis brings together eighteen local sports programs to raise money for scholarships, connect families with available leagues and advocate for better fields and facilities. The group has also partnered with local schools to introduce children to soccer, basketball, lacrosse and other activities close to home. Scholarship support grew from about $1,900 during its first year to nearly $18,000 the following year, a sign that both the demand and the opportunity are significant. Emily and Stan also talk about the need for coaches, referees, mentors, volunteers and community partners, along with a long-term vision for a dedicated athletic complex in Annapolis. Parents looking for a program, families seeking financial assistance and residents ready to volunteer or donate can learn more at PlayAnnapolis.org. Have a listen!

It's a packed one this week, Blues fans. We open with the Annapolis Blues taking on Liga MX side Santos Laguna in front of 7,000+ midweek fans at NMCMS — a friendly that saw the full roster get run, including a chat with all-time leading scorer Brady Geho. The Blues dropped that one 2-0, but the experience alone was worth the price of admission. No rest for the weary — next up was Bethesda SC, and what a rollercoaster: down 1-0 early, Matt Lenert levels, Kira sees red after a controversial double-yellow, the Blues claw back from 2-1 down to lead late… and somehow still finish 3-3 after a heartbreaking stoppage-time equalizer. Brutal. Beautiful. Very 2026 Blues. Bella's got the women's side covered too — a Father's Day showdown against table-topping Virginia Development Academy that ended in a loss but came with a major silver lining (more on that below), plus interviews with both keepers, Caroline Duffy and Abby Makella. Then the season finale doubleheader for the Lady Blues: a rain-soaked, 4-0 win to close things out, with Sabba Haghoo, Jolie Farmer, and Zoe Vadaurre dominating the back line. The women finish the year in 3rd place in the Chesapeake — and yes, they're the only team to hand VDA a loss all season. Bella breaks down the full standings and shares her thoughts on the year that was. And then — the Old Bay Derby. Christos came to Annapolis fresh off beating us 1-0 in their building, jumped out to a 2-0 lead in the rain... and then the Blues happened. Brady Geho's hat-trick (his 20th goal of the season), goals from Ale and Tyler Gabara, and a late Matt Lenert penalty sealed a statement 6-2 win on six unanswered goals. The supporters' section was unhinged. As they should've been. One home match left — July 11th. Let's pack the place out. UP THE BLUES!

On this episode of The Ty Brady Way, Ty sits down with Natalia Zacharin, founder of Zacharin Consulting, a multimillion dollar accounting firm she built from scratch starting at age 50 with no accounting degree, no clients, and no real plan. What she had was a need, a willingness to figure it out, and enough stubbornness to keep going when most people would have quit. Natalia's story doesn't start with a passion or a calling. It starts with a divorce in 2012, a stretch of poverty, years of grinding through jobs that were slowly disappearing, and a conversation in a cafe in Annapolis, Maryland where someone she was dating said, almost offhandedly, why don't you just start your own business? She thought he was joking. He wasn't. She took a short course on starting a business, followed the steps, got her first client, and then went to work figuring out how to actually do bookkeeping. That's the whole origin story. No dramatic leap of faith, just a fork in the road and a decision to go left. What followed was anything but easy. She worked full time while learning a brand new skill set from YouTube videos and books. Her first year in business she made $38,000 in gross sales. She spent the first three years fighting imposter syndrome almost weekly, asking herself why she was doing something she never wanted to do in the first place. The answer was always the same: it was working, clients were coming, and she had nothing to fall back on. So she kept going. Ty and Natalia get into the three beliefs she had to break to get where she is today. The first was the negative self-talk that told her she was too old to start over. Every time that voice showed up, she learned to stop it in its tracks and ask whether it was actually being helpful. The second was the envy she felt scrolling through social media watching other people live the life she wanted. She flipped that story and started telling herself she already had that life, even when she didn't. Before long, she started actually having it. The third was the deepest one: growing up as a first-generation American with the belief that a woman's security came from a husband. She had no safety net, no partner to lean on, and no fallback. In hindsight, she says that was exactly what she needed, because it left her no option but to keep moving forward. One of the most honest moments in this conversation is when Natalia talks about the 11 months she spent reaching out to people every single day and hearing no over and over again. She describes it as feeling like she was sinking further into an abyss with no sign of when things would turn around. She kept going anyway. That's the whole answer. She kept going. They also get into how she built the business beyond bookkeeping. She did all the sales calls herself for years, and she kept hearing the same thing from business owners: I don't understand what these numbers mean. That pattern became fractional CFO services, which is now the core of what Zacharin Consulting does. She helps business owners stop looking at where they are and start seeing where they're headed, projecting six to twelve months out so they can make decisions before problems become crises. The tax and payroll services came later, both born out of frustration with industry gaps she kept watching hurt her clients. Natalia's non-negotiables are worth noting: exercise with a personal trainer because she knows she won't show up for herself alone, sleep after years of running on fumes, hobbies and time with her kid on weekends, and getting her hair done, which is blocked on her calendar and visible to her entire team. She's not apologetic about any of it. You can't lead sixteen people if you're running on empty. Her definition of success has shifted completely. It started as survival. Then it became about the quality of service she was delivering. Now it's about her team having real careers and real opportunities, her clients getting everything they deserve, and giving back to causes she cares about. The business is no longer just about her, and she's clear that's exactly how it should be. Her closing message is simple: it's harder than you think it's going to be, and it's worth it. Find a room where you're the smallest business in it. And leave your ego at the door, because the goal is to keep hiring people who are better than you.
Shane Waters and Gemma Hoskins close out their reunion by going down the list of the people who appeared in the Netflix documentary The Keepers, where they are today, who is still fighting, who has found peace, and who the world has lost. It is a warm, reflective conversation about the unsolved 1969 murder of Sister Catherine Ann Cesnik, the young School Sister of Notre Dame who taught English and drama at Archbishop Keough High School in Baltimore, and about the community of survivors, investigators, journalists, and filmmakers her case brought together.The Investigators and AdvocatesGemma gives an honest update on her own life, recovering from a broken hip, stepping back from the day-to-day advocacy, and finding peace in a quiet home in the woods.

Shane and Gemma also revisit Delegate C.T. Wilson, the abuse survivor who championed the Child Victims Act, and journalist Tom Nugent, whose reporting first brought the case back into the light.The FilmmakersGemma catches listeners up on the team behind The Keepers, director Ryan White, producer Jessica Hargrave, and cinematographer John Benham, whose work since the series includes the Oscar-nominated, Peabody-winning documentary Come See Me in the Good Light. And, of course, they give a nod to Kim, who edits this very podcast.What Comes NextShane and Gemma agree to keep going as the story unfolds, and invite listeners to suggest the people they would still like to hear from.Content WarningThis episode discusses clergy abuse and violence.Frequently Asked QuestionsWhat is The Keepers about?The Keepers is a 2017 Netflix documentary series about the unsolved 1969 murder of Sister Catherine Cesnik, a Baltimore nun and teacher, and the allegations of abuse at Archbishop Keough High School that may be connected to her death.Who were Jane Doe and Jane Roe?Jean Hargadon Wehner was known as "Jane Doe" and Teresa Lancaster as "Jane Roe, " two survivors whose accounts were central to The Keepers.

It was a brutal week for Annapolis Blues FC. Hosts Sam Huston and women's correspondent Bella break down back-to-back road losses: a heartbreaking 2-1 defeat at Loudon United where Ben Madore's extra-time equalizer wasn't enough to save the Blues from a late collapse, followed by a frustrating 1-0 loss at Christos FC where the offense couldn't find the net despite a livelier second-half push.

What if the experience you think makes you an outsider in the design industry is actually your greatest advantage? In this episode of Designed for the Creative Mind, Michelle Lynne sits down with interior designer Katie Rainey to discuss her journey from Doctor of Physical Therapy to owner of a thriving interior design firm specializing in waterfront and lifestyle-driven homes. Katies design philosophy is that beauty and function are necessities, not luxuries. With a Doctorate in Physical Therapy and a background in human movement, she crafts spaces that are both beautiful and intuitively designed for real life. She partners with busy families and professionals seeking solace in nature - whether by the water in Annapolis or in the mountains of New Hampshire - guiding them through the intricacies of a renovation or a new build. With deep construction knowledge, she collaborates closely with builders and architects to ensure seamless execution from concept to completion. As part of a military family, Katie has lived across the U.S. and in Europe. She draws inspiration for her designs from this global design perspective, having lived in diverse landscapes. Katie shares how she initially hid her medical background, believing it had little relevance to design, only to discover that her expertise in movement, ergonomics, and human behavior became one of her strongest differentiators. From designing custom solutions that improve clients' daily lives to building a business rooted in confidence, process, and professionalism, Katie offers valuable lessons for designers at every stage of business. The conversation also explores networking, pricing, client communication, boundaries, and the mindset shifts that helped Katie transition from treating design as a passion to running it as a profitable business. Whether you're transitioning from another career, struggling to communicate your value, or looking for encouragement to own your unique story, this episode is packed with practical wisdom and inspiration. In This Episode, We Discuss: Katie's transition from physical therapy to interior design Why your previous career can become your biggest business advantage Using ergonomics and human movement to create more functional homes How Katie found her unique positioning in the design industry The mindset shift from hobbyist to business owner Learning to separate emotion from sales conversations The "Pass the Salt" approach to discussing money with clients Why clear processes create better client experiences Educating clients through deliverables and expectations The importance of boundaries and scope management Networking strategies that helped Katie build a business in a brand-new market How confidence and consistency lead to stronger business growth Balancing motherhood, business ownership, and personal fulfillment Key Takeaways Your Past Experience Is Part of Your Expertise Katie spent years downplaying her background as a physical therapist before realizing it gave her a unique perspective that directly benefits her clients. The skills, knowledge, and experiences from previous careers often become the very thing that sets designers apart. Design Is More Than Making Things Beautiful A successful design must function for the people who live in it. Katie's understanding of ergonomics and movement helps her create spaces that support her clients' lifestyles while remaining beautiful. Confidence Comes from Process One of Katie's biggest business breakthroughs came from developing a clear process and communicating it effectively. When clients understand what to expect, they feel more confident moving forward. Networking Doesn't Have to Be Complicated From introducing herself to architects to striking up conversations at the gym and ice rink, Katie demonstrates that meaningful business relationships often start with a simple conversation. Business Growth Requires Personal Growth Success isn't just about improving your design skills. It's about developing confidence, setting boundaries, understanding your value, and learning how to lead clients through decisions. Memorable Quotes "Own your background. Whatever you did before design, there's something there that makes you a better designer." "If it looks beautiful but doesn't function for you, what's the point?" "You're not trying to convince clients to hire you. You're guiding them as the expert." "We are a for-profit company, not a non-profit." "We're most memorable in person, not behind our computer." "Whoever is going to hire me isn't going to hire you because I'm not you and you're not me."

In the final episode of The Briefing Room energy series, host Dom Butchko turns the conversation to Annapolis and the broader policy choices shaping Maryland's energy future. Joined by Delegate David Fraser-Hidalgo, Chair of the House Energy Subcommittee, the episode looks at how rising costs, reliability concerns, new generation needs, grid pressures, and local land-use questions are driving the next phase of state energy policy. The conversation explores what policymakers are trying to solve, what tools are available, how counties fit into the discussion, and what Marylanders should watch as the state moves from major legislative action toward implementation.
Naptown Blues Fancast covers the full swing of emotions that is USL2 football. Wednesday brought East Coast semifinalists Lionsbridge to NMCMS, and the result — a 2-0 defeat — was hard to argue with. The Blues controlled possession and put up 6 shots, but none of them truly tested the keeper, and a quickly taken short corner early in the second half effectively ended the contest. Sam and Hiram don't sugarcoat it. We also get to know a couple of new faces: Brazilian newcomer Enzo DeAlmedia and substitute Ollie Snowden, one of the few bright spots on the night. Saturday was a different story entirely. PFA came to town and the Blues were ready — scoring inside three minutes through Rich Monath, surviving a lightning delay, and then absolutely running riot for a 7-0 final. Penalty goal from captain Tyler Gabara. A cheeky chip from Roshawn Panton. Two rockets from substitute Caleb Pritchett. And a hat trick to close it out for Rich Monath. Crabtown Blues showed up loud for a wings-and-hair-metal tailgate and never let up. Post-match audio from Gabara, Pritchett, and Monath included. Sam also previews the playoff picture and the road ahead — Wednesday at Loudon, then Christos the following Monday.
