Top-tier American universities like Bucknell (which welcomed its first international student in 1858) have been attracting talented international students for generations.But even as more international students choose to attend college in the United States, the process for exploring, applying to, and attending American universities has not gotten any easier.This episode of College Admissions Insider is all about the unique — and sometimes complicated — journey that international students must take if they want to attend college in the United States. In addition to sharing advice for international students, we also help families living in the U.S. understand what colleges are doing to make international students feel more welcome — and how you can help.Our guest is Brett Basom, Bucknell's associate director of international recruitment. He’s been in college admissions for 30 years and at Bucknell for three years. In addition to meeting with students from around the world, Brett reviews every application to Bucknell from an international student or an American student living overseas.Read a transcript for this episodeIf you have a question, comment, or idea for a future episode, email podcast@bucknell.edu.Links:International Student ServicesAdmissions requirements for international studentsFinancial aid for international studentsGeneral info about applying to BucknellInformation for prospective studentsInformation for parents of prospective students
This episode is inspired by one of my amazing clients.

In this episode, I share with you why missing your ex isn’t actually a problem, how to identify when it is a problem, and questions to ask yourself and reflect on in order to move through it.There is so much information in this episode, but it doesn’t even begin to cover how I can help you heal your heart.

With this episode, we wrap up the first series of Faith Made Welcome, a progressive podcast on faith brought to you by Commonwealth Baptist Church in Alexandria, Virginia. If you’ve been listening since Episode 1, you know that throughout the month of August we recorded podcasts offering an opportunity for folks in our faith community to further discuss topics from a special sermon series at our church. That series, titled “What The World Needs Now,” invited guest activist preachers to give us their take on this theme. Today’s episode, which you can watch on our YouTube Channel, features Nichola Torbett, who argues that what the world needs now is a longing for life or, as she puts it, using the German word sehnsucht, or deep wistful longing. In this episode of the podcast, pastors Robin and Marty Anderson are joined by both members of the This Most Unbelievable Life duo: Faith Made Welcome regular, Cheri Spiegel, and Faith Made Welcome’s sound engineer, Paul Fitzgerald. In this episode we take a look at what it looks like to truly long for life. We consider how abundant life and the longing of our hearts is necessarily tied to community, and we explore ways that the American Dream, American exceptionalism, and other transactional systems might keep us from living life fully alive. About Nichola TorbettNichola Torbett describes herself as a spiritual seeker, recovering addict, gospel preacher, podcaster, writer, resistance fomenter, dog-walker, nonviolent direct action trainer and abolitionist. She co-founded the Seminary on the Streets, a training academy for love warriors and Second Acts, a liturgical direct action affinity group. She is the co-editor of Respiscence: A Lenten Devotional for Dismantling White Supremacy, and she contributes to The Word in Resistance, a podcast from SURJ-Faith. About Our Guest, Paul FitzgeraldDr. Paul Fitzgerald is a professor of Biology at Northern Virginia Community College, and is a 20+ year student, and teacher, of mindfulness and Vipassana meditation. A mid-westerner at heart and a dedicated spiritual seeker for life, he is a co-founder, along with Dr. Cheri Spiegel, of This Most Unbelievable Life, and a co-host of the associated podcast, This Most Unbelievable Podcast. Scripture Mentioned this EpisodeIf you’re looking to dig deeper, here are the scriptures mentioned this episode:Mark 10: 17-31Matthew 19: 16-30Acts 5: 1-12 Additional Materials Mentioned this EpisodeMia Birdsong: We reference her appearance on Ann Friedman and Aminatou Sow’s podcast Call Your Girlfriend as well as her book How We Show Up: Reclaiming Family, Friendship, and Community Joseph Campbell: We discuss his concept of the Hero’s JourneyGungor: We mention Gungor’s “One Wild Life,” which references the Mary Oliver poem below Mary Oliver: We quote her poem “The Summer Day”Richard Rohr: We reference his devotional Wondrous Encounters: Scriptures for LentStar Wars: We mention Star Wars, and we think you might not need a link to know about.They Might be Giants: Naturally, because Paul is a Paleontology PhD we reference their song “I Am a Paleontologist” About This PodcastThis podcast was envisioned as means to foster spiritual growth and conversations about faith, both within and beyond the faith community at Commonwealth Baptist Church. At the open of this episode, we discuss what spiritual formation means to our CBC pastors and the role community plays in our concept of faith.

It turns out that you have a better chance of being hit by lightning than winning the Powerball. Bart Potenza won the lottery not once, but 3 different times. While none of these wins were millions, they were substantial amounts of money that helped him and his life-partner, Joy, build their vegan restaurant empire Candle Cafe. With 83 years of life under his belt, Bart shares with me his view and wisdom on luck, taking chances, the power of manifestation, and how 33 years of veganism has altered his life.Check out Bart & Joy's books:The Candle Cafe CookbookCandle 79 CookbookVegan Holiday Cooking from Candle CafeStay in touch with me on IG: @masselladukulyFollow on SpotifySubscribe + Review on AppleShare with someone that you think would enjoy this episodeIf you listen, be sure to tag me or DM.

Click here for the video of this episodeIf you're like most people, you want to act on the environment. You want to make sure you make a difference and fear wasting your time or doing pointless work.I felt that way before I started the path that led to this podcast. Taking initiative overcame it. I wrote my book, Initiative, on taking initiative based on the course I've taught at corporations and NYU to stellar student reviews and videos.If you want to make a difference on something you care about to help a community and people you care about, the exercises in this book are the best way I know.Today's episode is a conversation with Dan Zehner, who did the exercises. Yes, I'm promoting the book, but to help empower this community. I didn't record it intending to post here, but found it so relevant to a world where one of the most common responses involves the phrase "but what I do doesn't matter" that I decided to share it here.Initiative teaches anyone to create more of what you love, get closer to your family and loved ones if you want, create community, develop social and emotional skills, connect with the top people in the world in your area.Went from below middle manager to realizing his dreams, spending more time with his family, wasting less time on uninteresting things, and going into business with one of the top people in the world to serve people and a community he cares about.He felt he had no other choice. He didn't see opportunities he now considers obvious. His world turned from scarcity and lonely struggle to abundance and progress with friends.Questions Dan answersWhat if IDon't have time?Don't have money?Have too many ideas?Have too few ideas?Can't focus?Don't want to start a company?Don't like to take risks?Don't know anyone who can help me?What if my husband/wife/family is my priority?What about all the problems in the world I should work on?How is Initiative's process different than all the other resources out there on entrepreneurship?What's wrong with other methods?What's the experience like?Where can I learn more details?Click here for the video of this episodeDan Zehner's blog Anthem of the AdventurerHis video of adventure.

Social media. We’re all on it in some shape or form, but do we know how to use it? In this episode Paula talks to local social media maven Aimee about how she uses social media to run her earring business (High Key Obsessed), how it informs her creative practice, and can enable and build creative careers.P.S In the podcast I mention a statistic I’d encountered last year, and totally misquoted it. Roy Morgan found that young women in Australia spent, on average, over two hours on social media every day. So, while that is not the six that I mention, it is still a fairly significant amount of time, especially as a national average. You can read more about it here:Roy Morgan (2018).

Today I’m sharing my process for writing outlines. If you've never written an outline for your podcast before, I'm going to teach you how today.What does a podcast outline do for you? It helps you stay focused. It helps you make sure you cover all the topics you want to cover, or ask or answer the right questions. It helps you keep the episode on track.Listeners want to know what they’re going to get from a show. You may have recorded an epic episode with tons of great advice and takeaways, but if you don’t tell the listeners in advance what they can expect, they won't know what's coming. People will tune out if they don’t know to expect or what the point of the episode is.In this episode, you'll learn how to outline your episodes and explain the content of your episode at the start of your episode so you can keep people listening (and subscribing) to your show.Highlights, Takeaways & Quick WinsThe purpose of outlining is to keep you focused on the big picture things before you dive into the small details.Start your outline with your big idea. This will be the main topic of the episode.In your intro, tell your listeners what they can expect. Explain to them why this topic matters and why they should care.You don’t have to do any real writing inside of a mind map outline. It’s just for laying out the main sections and big ideas of the episode.Invest some time every week doing additional research on your topic.Find out what other people are saying about your topic.Find and address any counter-arguments.Why Outline?If you’ve never done outlines before for your podcast, I recommend trying it.If you don’t have an outline, you won’t have structure. Your show won’t feel like it has direction. You might forget important things.If you’re doing an interview, you might miss important questions or forget to talk about certain things.While doing an interview, it’s ok to go with the flow and the conversation, but your listeners will appreciate if you prepare topics to talk about with your guest.The purpose of outlining is to keep you focused on the big picture things before you dive into the small details.If you try to write out an episode from start to finish, it’s easy to get bogged down in the details of one section and lose sight of the big picture.But don’t take my word for it. Listen to what these folks have to say about outlining:Scotty: I’ve been doing mind mapping to begin my process of outlining. I select the main takeaways that I can focus on and then prepare the outline. Sometimes my mind goes off the outline but that’s alright. Mind maps have been huge to stop me from staring at the cursor blinking wondering where to start.Garrett: Outlining definitely benefits me. It helps me get my thoughts organized in advance so I can just start typing away and get the rough draft finished. I do think it’s important to not stick strictly to the outline. Sometimes you’re writing and you realize the order should be different, or you need to add something, or remove something, and that’s okay. The outline isn’t the definitive.Let's start by walking through the sections of a typical episode outline, and then dive into more detail about each piece.Please feel free to adapt this outline to meet your needs. This is how I outline and I hope it will give you a nice starting point but it’s not a one-size-fits-all solution.How to Start a Podcast Episode OutlineScotty asked: Do you have your headline set before you plan your attack? Or do you start to write your outline then form an engaging headline from there?Now, Scotty said headline, but I think he means title. I always start with the Main Topic or the Big Idea.This can also be the title of your episode, but you don’t have to have the title before you start writing the outline. You can change the title later if you want.Start your outline with your big idea. This will be the main topic of the episode.After you have your main topic, what is your hook? What perspective or opinions do you have that are unique or interesting about this topic? What are your listeners going to take away from the show?After you have your topic and hook, start writing your intro. Think about how you’re going to introduce this topic or idea to your audience.After you have your main topic and intro, start thinking about the main points related to that topic that you want to make. These will be your headers. These are the main sub-topics or ideas that will make up the meat of your episode. You should also address counter arguments after you’ve made your main points, but I’ll talk more about that in a bit.Finally, you’ll need to do a recap of what you talked about in the show, just to summarize everything. Then you’ll do your outro.Let’s get into the details of each piece of your outline. First, the intro.Your Intro Should Introduce You, Your Show, and the Topic of the EpisodeIf you’re just starting your podcast, it’s important to tell the listener a little bit about yourself. Tell the audience who you are, what you do for work. Tell them how old you are and if you have a family. Tell them what you do for fun in your free time. Talk about your hobbies. Talk about your goals for the future.You don’t have to go over all your personal details in every episode, but remember that new listeners join all the time. It’s not a bad idea to do a quick introduction at the beginning of every episode just for the brand new folks.Talk about why you’re doing your podcast. Tell your audience what your show is about. It’s ok to elaborate in your first episode, but try to describe the goal of your podcast in a single sentence in future episodes.Tell your listeners who your show is for. What kind of people do you want listening to your podcast? Is there anyone you don’t want in your audience?For example, my podcast is for people who care about making great podcasts. People who are interested in learning about audio and writing and technology and everything that goes along with podcasting. If you aren’t passionate about podcasting, this show isn’t for you. I’m not trying to reach everyone with my podcast, I only want the people that care intensely about podcasting.In your intro, tell your listeners what they can expect. Explain to them why this topic matters and why they should care.Talk about what problem you’re going to solve for them, or how the information can help them. Tell them what they are going to learn about or takeaway from the episode.After you’ve introduced yourself and told your listener what you’re going to talk about, then it’s time to get into the meat of the show; the main points.Key PointsSo you have your main topic. What do you want to talk about or share with your audience about this topic? Do you have any stories that you can share? Do you have any great blogs posts you can mention and discuss?This is where starting outlines in mind maps has been a game changer for me. For those of you wondering, I use MindNode for mind-mapping. It’s a great app.Before I start doing any real writing, I add all the key points in a circle around the main idea in the mind map. Sometime I’ll have an idea for a sub-topic inside of a sub-topic, so I’ll throw that in real quick, but I’m not doing any real writing yet. I’m just trying to brainstorm all the big points that I want to hit.You don’t have to do any real writing inside of a mind map outline. It’s just for laying out the main sections and big ideas of the episode.After I have all my main points on the mind map, I start thinking about which order they should go in:Would it be better to start with this subtopic?Is there a chronological order that I should go in?What should go first?What should go in the middle?What should go last?It’s really easy to drag the little topic bubbles around and rearrange them in my mind map, which is another reason I like using mind maps for outlining instead of text documents.Spend Time Researching Your Topic and Key PointsYou should do some research before you get on the mic. What are other people saying about the thing you're talking about? Bring a couple examples to share. Read related blogs posts. Watch videos.Even if you think you know a lot about a topic, there are probably still things you can learn from other people.Invest some time every week doing additional research on your topic.After you have all your sub-topics and sub-sub-topics laid out, dive in and start expanding those. This is the point where I export my mind map as a text document and import the text into my writing application, which is Typed (at the moment).Talk About the Counter PointsAfter you finish writing about your main sub-topics, think about counter-points or opposing arguments. This is something I learned about in writing class in college.You can strengthen your own argument by anticipating opposing arguments and addressing them before someone else gets a chance to bring them up.It doesn’t always apply, but it’s still a good habit to develop.In fact, I’ll do it right now. I’m thinking about counter arguments to my argument of “Outlining is a good idea.” What argument could someone make that counters mine?You could argue that outlining in too much detail and reading from that outline can suck the life out of your delivery. Sean McCabe and I discussed this in episode five of my podcast.My counter argument to that would be: Yes, writing and then reading an entire blog post can sound stale and lifeless, but only if you don’t write like you talk or if you aren’t good at reading what you’ve written in a way that is dynamic and interesting.Also, I don’t think that most formats need that detailed of an outline. When I start doing interviews, I’m not going to write out my thoughts about every sub-topic. I want it to be a conversation, not me reading out a paragraph and then letting my guest respond. That’d be pretty terrible.Do some research and see what other people are saying about your topic. Find and address any counter-arguments.Try to find people who disagree with your opinion about your topic. What are they saying? What arguments are they making? Are any of their arguments valid? If not, why? Address them in your show. Try to put yourself in someone else’s head. Why do they think that way about that topic or idea?Recap Your EpisodeAfter you touch on your main points, go back through and collect the most important thoughts and points for your recap section. Think of this as the Too Long, Didn’t Read section of your outline. Make a quick summery of the best ideas of your outline. This is your last chance to give your listeners some takeaways that will stick with them.What to Put In Your Episode OutroThere are a few things you need to do in your outro.1. Thank your listeners. They just invested time listening to you. Make sure you tell them that you are grateful.2. Ask for a review on Apple Podcasts. Make it easy for people to leave a review of your show, give them a link. The best time to ask for a review is right after you’ve provided a bunch of value to your listener. Many of your listeners will want to help you out. Remind the listeners that Apple Podcasts reviews can help your show get new listeners which will build the community. Good for you, but also good for them.3. Read an Apple Podcasts review or other feedback you get. This creates a personal connection and shows the other listeners that you pay attention to your audience.4. Tell people where they can find you online. Don’t assume that people know where to find you. Share your website, Twitter, Instagram, Linked In, Facebook, anywhere that you want your audience to find and interact with you online.5. Ask for feedback. Ask for your listener’s thoughts and opinions. Ask them for permission to share those things on future episodes of the show. It might even become a topic for a future episode.6. If you know next week’s topic, tease it. TV shows do this all the time. It’s a great way to get people excited for your next episode. It gives them something to look forward to. Of course, this only works if you have topics planned in advance.Episode Recap:Listeners want to know what to expect before they listen to your show. An outline can help you discover what the important takeaways are. Then you can share those takeaways in the title, show description, and intro.Don’t start filling in the details before you’ve written your intro, main points and sub-points, and outro.For your intro, tell your audience who you are and what you’re going to share in the episode.For your main points, thank about and share the most important things you can think of that are related to your topic. Do some research and see what other people are saying about the topics. Try to find and address any counter-arguments.For your recap, collect the most important thoughts and points. Summarize the best ideas of your outline. The recap is your last chance to give your listeners some takeaways that will stick with them.For your outro, thank your listeners for listening to your show. Ask them for questions and feedback. Ask for a review in Apple Podcasts. Read an Apple Podcasts review. Tell them where they can find you online. Tease the topic for your next episode if you know it.Q&AChristopher asks: How do you approach outlines for material that works best with visual aides? Like screencasts instead of podcasting.I think it works the same way. There are some topics that I’m not going to do podcasts about. Things like mixing and mastering are very hard to teach without visual aids.I haven’t tried outlining for my screencasts yet, but I’m going to start because the ideas are the same. It’s still important to introduce the topic, talk about the takeaways and main points, and then do a recap and an outro.Even if I’m not writing a super long and detailed outline, it’d still be helpful for me to plan a screencast using the process I described in this episode.---I had a thought yesterday that I posted to Twitter:Pro tip for growing an audience: Focus on what you can do for them, not what they can do for you.I was thinking about this because it’s really easy as a podcaster (or writer, musician, etc) to focus on what we’re getting out of the work we’re putting out into the world. We think a lot about how what we’re doing is going to benefit us.I’ve started thinking about it differently. Instead of focusing on what I’m going to get out of something, I want to focus on what I can give to my audience.It frustrates me when I see podcasters whose main motivation for growing an audience is so they can sell ads. If your focus is on getting to 15,000 downloads per episode so that you can get sponsors, it’s probably not going to happen.Focus instead on delivering something valuable to the audience you do have, and answer questions for people who aren’t listening to your show yet. That’s how you grow an audience./end rantMore Cool Stuff to Check Out:Recommended Gear: https://kit.com/thepodcastdudePodcast: https://thepodcastdude.comTwitter: https://twitter.com/thepodcastdudeYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/thepodcastdudeIf you enjoyed this episode, please take a moment to leave a rating and review in Apple Podcasts, or share the episode with a friend.

This Episode's QuestionI really feel like I'm ready for a job promotion, to take on more responsibilities, and to build more skills. But I'm not sure how to have that conversation with my manager. What You'll Learn- How to make YOU the obvious answer when your leadership team considers people for new roles, open positions, or new projects. - A simple concept about asking for things, and how it gives you super powers for keeping you top-of-mind when your manager considers who will get the next job. - Thoughts on "as-if" current performance: acting as if you're already in that role so you become the obvious next choice. - Why it's important to show or communicate your untapped talents so that you are viewed as having high potential (rather than making them worry that the Peter Principle is in effect and you might be topped out at the next role). - Questions to ask yourself about your current performance so that you know you're not distracting yourself from excelling in your current job. - Assessing your risk factors: what things will make you seem like a risky choice when they decide who to promote? What things will make them worry that promoting you could be a career-limiting decision for them. - How to use special projects to demonstrate skills and experiences they haven't been able to see in you yet. - Why emotional intelligence or social fluency will win out over your technical skill set every time. It is a better predictor of promotability, even though this is counter-intuitive to most people.
