Drawing from her own journey and the stories of women she's mentored, Brooke unpacks the ways labels, setbacks, and challenges often point directly to the assignment God has placed on your life.

A year that felt like a ten-car pileup deserves an exit with momentum, so we lit the fuse. We kick off with laughter and a little scorched earth, then dive straight into college football's favorite paradox: a playoff built on “best teams” with criteria that shift like sand. We break down the Pop-Tart Bowl chaos, lay out bold CFP predictions, and make the case for a hybrid selection model that blends analytics with accountable human judgment—because fans deserve transparency, not vibes.From there we put Michigan's new hire under the microscope: is this a stabilizing move or a ceiling capper at elite money? We rank the top coaches by more than reputation, and then flip the question on ourselves—would you coach your rival for $8 million? The tension between loyalty and opportunity becomes a lens for how players choose schools too. We map the real decision tree: roster fit and development pipeline first, culture and facilities close behind, NIL as leverage not destiny, and the transfer portal as both lifeline and accelerant. If the rules made loyalty optional, programs need to earn it with clarity, growth, and honest pathways to the NFL.Then we shift gears into the pure joy of discovery. Jaw Candy turned into a weeklong obsession, and it opened the door to a run of new tracks: melodic hardcore with early-2000s DNA, blackened metalcore that actually hits, rap with classic bounce, and an unexpected left-field banger with haunting clown visuals that somehow works. Not every pick lands—some get a hard pass—but that's the point. Curated risk beats algorithmic rinse-and-repeat, and your next favorite band might be hiding under a few hundred views.If you're here for strong takes, messy honesty, and a playlist that doesn't sound like last year's, you're in the right place. Tap play, argue our CFP picks, tell us whether culture or cash wins the recruiting war, and drop your best underground music find. Subscribe, share with a friend who loves college football and heavy music, and leave a review with your boldest playoff upset—let's see who calls it first.Send us a text message and let us know how awesome we are!

348: Holiday Rewind: 4 Ways to Advance Your Nonprofit LeadershipWhat are you doing - intentionally - to move closer to your nonprofit leadership goals?In this Holiday Rewind of solo episode #159, Patton revisits four practical, evergreen ways nonprofit leaders can reflect, refocus, and move forward in their leadership journey. Whether you're early in your career, preparing for your next step, or refining your impact as a senior leader, these four elements provide a simple framework for year-end reflection and year-ahead momentum.Special thanks to our friends from TowneBank and Armstrong McGuire for supporting this podcast on its way to 350 Episodes next month!The Four Elements1. Sharpen Your Vision Framework. Clarity fuels progress. Revisit where you want to be in three to five years and define the kind of leader you want to become, not just the title you want to hold. A clear vision helps you evaluate opportunities, say no with confidence, and align daily work with long-term goals.2. Practice Self-Assessment. Growth starts with honest reflection. Regularly assess your strengths, skill gaps, leadership style, and readiness for greater responsibility. Seek feedback, reflect on recent experiences, and use that insight to guide your development priorities.  There were 10 Skills back in Episode #159, but the Mastermind Program now features 12!3. Utilize Strategic Networking. Relationships don't happen by accident. Be intentional about building a diverse network of peers, mentors, and sponsors who can challenge your thinking, open doors, and support your growth. Strategic networking is about mutual value, not transactions.4. Curate Knowledge. You don't need to know everything, but you do need to keep learning. Be selective about the books, podcasts, conferences, and conversations that shape your thinking. Curated learning keeps you relevant, reflective, and ready for what's next.About PattonPatton McDowell is a nonprofit leadership coach, consultant, author, and podcast host with more than 30 years of experience helping leaders and organizations thrive.

Hey friend — grab a cup of something warm because this episode is basically a cozy love letter to Scotland and the chaos of planning the perfect honeymoon. I'm getting married (yes, Mrs. Fiance—probably?), and Topher — now a travel advisor extraordinaire — planned our whole week in Edinburgh as a wedding gift. He went full curator mode, balancing our must-dos (spooky tunnels? yes please) and the slow, wandering days we actually want to enjoy. We talk about staying put in Edinburgh as our base, skipping the long car treks and islands that would eat half our trip, and instead taking smart day trips and local tours. There's a historical scavenger-hunt app to help us get our bearings without being rushed, haunted tours that end in dungeons (adults only, thank goodness), and a smidge of golf-related comedy because apparently my honeymoon could've been miniature-golf therapy for life choices. Topher's approach was so thoughtful — he curated the trip around what we genuinely love: walking the city in cardigans, foggy seaside vibes, and spooky stories. He also navigated budget realities (hello, Witchery hotel dreams) and found us a stunning hotel with a VIP upgrade instead of blowing the budget on one ultra-expensive night. Smart, practical, and still romantic. We kept things intentionally unbooked in spots so we can stumble into our own moments, which is my favorite part about travel. It's the best of both worlds: planned highlights (fairy-highland tour, haunted tunnels) plus lazy pub stops and wandering lanes we'll want to return to. Also: planning a trip with a travel advisor really changes the game — it felt customized in the best way. So come along as we gush about nostalgia, Scotland, and all the tiny decisions that make a honeymoon feel like a memory-in-progress. And if you ever need a travel nudge (or a good excuse to avoid driving abroad), Topher's got you — maybe he'll get you a VIP upgrade too.

In this episode, Brooke shares a powerful reminder that you were created on purpose and for a purpose. She offers personal stories, biblical encouragement, and actionable insight about activating your God-given calling, even in seasons of uncertainty or fear. Brooke explains that purpose is not something to search for—it's something to step into by faith, through surrender and bold action. Through inspiring examples and heartfelt prayers, she encourages listeners to move beyond hesitation, trust God's timing, and embrace a life of overflow and impact. This episode will equip you to say yes to your purpose, walk confidently in your assignment, and live out loud with clarity and faith. It's time to ACTIVATE what God's already placed in YOU. Realign your FAITH, VOICE, and VISION — and step into UNSHAKABLE IMPACT.  

In another episode curated by our friends at HI-FLOAT, and recorded live at the Sempertex International Balloon Convention, I'm chatting with Jam of Garden Place Balloons about his new brick and mortar shop, The Balloon Shop. If you've ever toyed with the idea of opening a balloon store, you'll want to hear Jam's story behind his pivot from focusing solely on custom installs to now offering smaller ticket items as well: the wins, the worries, and the money math. We cover: Why he shifted to helium, grab-and-go garlands, and personalized jumbos How Party City closures and customer requests shaped his offerings The realities of foot traffic, hours, and staffing Pricing pushback His mindset shift: listening to the business you have, not the one you "should" have If you're considering a storefront this conversation will help you think it through.

In this episode, Brooke shares her personal journey of reclaiming her voice and confidence after years of shrinking back under limiting labels.

She explores the themes of joy, courage, and identity in Christ, encouraging listeners to reject any labels that diminish their worth and boldly embrace the power of their voice.
