LaVar is joined this week by two finalist for the Campbell Trophy, Notre Dame linebacker Jack Kiser and UNLV linebacker Jackson Woodard. LaVar chats with each about their play on the field, the achievements in the classroom and what the Campbell Trophy means to them. Named in honor of the late William V. Campbell, the former chairman of Intuit, former player and head coach at Columbia University and the 2004 recipient of the NFF's Gold Medal, The William V. Campbell Trophy® has become the most prestigious and desirable "academic" award in college football. The trophy recognizes an individual as the absolute best in the country for his academic success, football performance and exemplary leadership. Takeaways: Playing at Notre Dame is a prestigious honor. The Campbell Trophy recognizes academic and athletic excellence. Handling success is crucial for team growth. Academic performance directly impacts athletic performance. Identity beyond football is essential for personal development. Football provides unique life experiences and opportunities.

I'm bringing back a conversation on the power of reading. Now, this isn't something you haven't heard of, but I think we forget the gravity of it, and I want to give quick focus to some new research I've done recently. My conversation here is with Jeff Brown, host of the Read To Lead podcast and author of the book, Read To Lead. As you'll hear, we don't want to simply read and expose ourselves to messages, we want to actually digest the messages and take new actions in our lives. Jeff is an expert on the topic and I was really eager for this conversation. And I want to add something I've realized and given focus to. We spend much of our day reading social media and news snippets and an unrelenting amount of information all around us. But you aren't digesting it. Your brain is in entertainment mode. Think about your mindset when you sit down for entertainment vs your mindset when you sit down to participate in a class. Completely different psychological mindset. With entertainment, your mind is turned on for a dopamine hit. In a class your mind is turned on to learn. This is the difference I see when we spend all day reading from all the different sources around us, vs when we are still and we read a non-fiction book, even if we are listening to it. The concept has further elevated the importance of reading books to me. I think you'll be further inspired by this conversation with Jeff Brown.

Humans are built to rise. And you'll be most alive when you detect your Cause. Your mighty purpose could be to launch a startup that upgrades society or build an enterprise that dominates your domain. It could be to save the world or help kids who are hurting. All noble works. But, your Mount Everest or a Magnificent Mission could also be to quietly leave people better than you found them or incrementally and consistently turn fear into power and worry into wisdom via personal development (get up at 5am!). The key is to get stuck on some exciting calling that causes you to forget about your pains and enrol your gifts around something that matters. Once you do so your sleeping passion will erupt.This is what my latest book The Wealth Money Can't Buy is all about. Real wealth versus fake success. True winning versus spending your life climbing a mountain, only to find out at the end that it was the wrong one.

“Reality” is simply the possibility that a scared society has sold you.Often, when a visionary shares her ambition with the world, she's ridiculed. Mocked. And condemned.That's simply because any grand dream is so disruptive that it terrifies the status quo—the timid souls who would rather spend their lives in a tiny zone of security versus venturing out into the blue ocean of dazzling opportunity.Just because your idea/project/venture/screenplay/book/cause hasn't been done yet doesn't mean it cannot be now.Impossible is generally the untried, right?My latest book “The Wealth Money Can't Buy” is full of fresh ideas and original tools that I'm absolutely certain will cause quantum leaps in your positivity, productivity, wellness, and happiness.

In this second episode in the 3-part clinical leadership series, I explore the 'lesson planning trap'—a common situation where clinicians focus so much on perfecting individual sessions and miss broader opportunities for impact.I experienced this myself, spending years creating detailed therapy plans while seeing little change at the systems level. Then I realized the importance of distinguishing between planning for individual therapy and planning for effective service delivery. This insight transformed my practice and leadership approach.Today, I'll share how you can take your intervention skills and scale them for lasting change in your school or organization. Key Points:✅ Applying effective intervention principles to enhance service delivery.✅ Understanding the difference between therapy planning and service delivery planning.✅ Introducing scalable protocols that maximize your impact.✅ Evaluating your current strategies for scalability.✅ Utilizing intervention principles in team leadership situations.In this episode, I mentioned “The School Leader's Guide to Executive Functioning Support”, a 7-day course to help school leaders launch their executive functioning implementation plan.

Earthkeepers: A Circlewood Podcast on Creation Care and Spirituality
Americans are facing a massive crisis in earth care. The stark reality is that we've all been witnessing the decimation of multiple government land management agencies, such as the National Park Service and US Fish and Wildlife, among many others. And it's becoming increasingly obvious how the present administration's drastic cuts to staffing and budgets translates into the wholesale gutting of public services, environmental protections, and critical research for planetary health. But what we don't hear about so much is the cost of these changes to the actual federal employees on the front lines of these agencies-- in terms of their economic security, their mental health, and even their human dignity.In this conversation, Mark, a federal worker reflects on his 33-year career with the U.S. Forest Service, discussing his journey in land conservation, the importance of education in fostering environmental values, and the current threats to environmental regulations under political changes. He emphasizes the human cost of these policies and the need for community engagement and honest conversations to resist anti-Earth agendas.

Cam Arminio's Full-Court Mission: More Than Just a Game At Cedarville University, Cam Arminio is known for helping students get ready for life after graduation. As the Associate Director of Career Services, he coaches them through résumé prep, mock interviews, and LinkedIn tips — all with the heart of someone who truly wants to see others succeed. From Day One to Day 1,000, Cam is in their corner. But there's another side to Cam's story — one that plays out on the basketball court. Listen to his encouraging interaction with the game on this week's Cedarville Stories podcast. Cam has loved basketball his whole life. Back in high school, it was his identity. But when he became a Christian at 17, everything changed. What once took center stage became a way to serve something bigger. And today, he's using that same game to point others to Christ through the Cedarville Basketball Ministry. Each Sunday during the school year, dozens of students gather to play. Some come for the love of the game, others are fueled by the adrenaline rush of competition — but all of them find more than they expected. At halftime, Cam and his group of student leaders pause to share something lasting: the message of Jesus. It's not flashy. It's not forced. It's just real people connecting through a shared love for basketball and encountering something deeper along the way. During the week, those connections continue through Bible studies, as student leaders follow up with guys they've met on the court. The goal is simple: to reach young men who may not be ready for church pews but will show up to play. And once they're there, to open a door to faith and friendship. Looking ahead, Cam has big plans. More events off campus. New ways to connect. And even a Global Outreach trip to the Czech Republic in 2026 — carrying on the legacy of Coach Don Callan by using basketball to share the Gospel overseas. For Cam and the team, it all comes down to this: meaningful competition, Gospel-centered outreach, and life-giving community. Because sometimes, the court is where the real ministry begins. https://share.transistor.fm/s/7575329bhttps://youtu.be/CZbA05jExcQ

Vishal Mangalwadi returns to challenge the pessimistic theology that has sidelined the Western church for decades. He argues that the West's decline politically and culturally stems from bad theology. We pray, “His Kingdom come and His will be done on earth,” but simultaneously, we as the church in America have retreated from leading in the culture. To move forward, Mangalwadi proposes a bold vision that begins with education reform, calling churches to reclaim their position as centers of discipleship and cultural formation. Drawing from his global experience and biblical conviction, he offers a hopeful roadmap for restoring truth and rebuilding broken nations.Main Topics:Why Western Christianity adopted a pessimistic eschatology—and the cultural costHow the church turned to a private faith and ceded culture to secularismMangalwadi's plan to renew culture through biblically rooted educationJoin us to explore how the church can recover its cultural voice and help replant biblical roots in today's world.View the transcript, leave comments, and check out recommended resources on the Episode Landing Page!Learn More about the 2025 DNA Forum in Panama

How do you build a high-performance culture without turning your company into the Hunger Games? Reed Hastings, co-founder and former CEO of Netflix, shares lessons from a career spent rewriting the rules—from severance as a management tool to “big-hearted champions who pick up the trash.” In this episode, he reveals how Netflix scaled trust, made bold bets before the data was in, and kept its edge by treating employees like adults—not assets. You'll hear how Hastings evaluates talent beyond the interview, the reason he avoids performance improvement plans, and what most leaders misunderstand about judgment, feedback, and innovation. You'll also hear why he placed a $100 million bet on House of Cards with no pilot, how Drive to Survive changed an entire sport, and why Squid Game caught even Netflix by surprise. Now focused on a new chapter—owning a ski mountain, reshaping education through AI tutors, and supporting charter schools—Hastings is still doing what he does best: building systems that scale culture, not just product. If you care about performance without politics—or culture without the clichés—this is a blueprint from one of the clearest thinkers in modern business.

This week we are back with the second part of our remix of Angelina and Thomas' podcast series on Harry Potter: Book 1 by J. K. Rowling. This week we are covering chapters 3-7. Angelina opens the book discussion with an overview of the literary motifs used by Rowling in the Harry Potter books to help modern readers better understand these kinds of stories. One of the motifs she highlights is the identity quest and how we see Harry on a journey of the soul. She also shares some thoughts on the fairy tale “magic” of these stories in contrast to actual witchcraft as well as the symbolism used to show us that this is a fairy world. Thomas and Angelina talk about the characters we meet in these chapters, including the symbolism of some of their names. Other ideas discussed in this episode include the importance of alchemy, the Gothic literary tradition, the layers of the quest, the rise of the fantasy genre, and so much more! Visit HouseofHumaneLetters.com for updates on classes with Angelina, Thomas, and other members of their teaching team.

What happens when students are more addicted to cell phones than to learning? Welcome back to Crying In My Car, a podcast for teachers! Our hosts, Devin Siebold and James Yon, are back with some controversial opinions. From society's crippling phone addiction to the way the deep state is holding back education, you wouldn't believe the kind of hoops educators need to go through these days to create a lesson plan. First up, Devin breaks down the heated debate around the Department of Education. Should it stay? Should it go? Is there a better way to truly support our schools? Get ready for some honest and surprisingly insightful conversation. Then, we're going to take a hard look at America's real addiction problem… Cell phones. Now we all like playing on our phones, but for students, it's becoming a lot more serious than you think, and Devin makes the case that we need to start treating it just like any other addiction. And finally, why fighting for better education might require a little... conspiracy theory marketing? Devin argues that if we started treating education issues as conspiracy theories, they might be able to reach the public. We would imagine saying “the deep state doesn't want you to fund libraries” has quite the ring to it. Honestly, it might just work.
