We discuss the excitement of freedom, the shock of change, finding your people, rebuilding confidence after heartbreak, setting boundaries, and why even capable young adults need support.One of the most powerful parts of this conversation is Cristina's perspective on coaching.

It is about helping young people build emotional regulation, self-trust, resilience, confidence, and the ability to keep going when life feels uncertain.If you are parenting a high school senior, college student, or young adult who looks like they are doing fine but may still need support, this episode will help you understand why that support matters.   Struggling with anxiety in your family?

On Senior Sunday at Broadway Church of Christ, Bryan Brunson addresses graduating seniors Spencer and Evelyn through the lens of Jesus' temptation in the wilderness. Drawing parallels between Jesus' graduation into public ministry and the students' transition to adulthood, Brunson explores three key temptations that both Jesus and modern graduates face. The first temptation involves taking shortcuts to satisfaction - turning stones to bread - which he relates to seeking quick dopamine hits through shallow pursuits rather than addressing deeper spiritual hunger. The second temptation is the "identity stunt" of jumping from the temple to prove oneself, which parallels the pressure graduates feel to perform or compromise their values to gain attention and belonging in new environments. The final temptation involves bowing to worldly kingdoms for easy success, which Brunson warns against as he encourages the graduates not to put their faith "on the shelf" for four years in pursuit of worldly achievement. Throughout his message, Brunson weaves in personal anecdotes from coaching T-ball and his own college experience, creating a relatable and conversational tone. He specifically addresses Spencer's proximity to home (going to San Angelo) and Evelyn's distance (Harding University in Arkansas, 9 hours and 44 minutes away), warning against letting either distance or proximity make their faith lazy. The sermon concludes with the reminder that just as angels attended Jesus after his victory over temptation, the church community serves as support for those facing life's challenges. https://bwaychurch.org  

BYU star football player Bear Bachmeier talks about whether or not he entertained the idea of entering the transfer portal this winter.

Most people spend years chasing a record. Jane Hedengren did it on her first try.On April 3rd at the Stanford Invitational, BYU freshman Jane Hedengren stepped onto the track for her first-ever collegiate outdoor race and ran 30:46.80, the fastest collegiate 10,000m in NCAA history. She broke Parker Valby's record by nearly four seconds. That's who TRE is sitting down with this week.     But this episode isn't really about the record. It's about what it takes to perform at that level before you've had time to be afraid of it. Jane is 19 years old, the daughter of an All-American runner, competing for BYU under head coach Diljeet Taylor—and she is doing things in her freshman year that most distance runners never do in a career. Two NCAA indoor titles. The indoor 5,000m record. And now this.The numbers are already legendary. What this conversation goes after is everything behind them: the race tactics, the mindset between back-to-back NCAA gold medals, the training system that built her, and the question that's been nagging many in the industry: does she let herself think about the 2028 Olympics?TRE does. And you will too by the end of this one.conversation that is long overdue.Tap into the Jane Hedengren Special.If you enjoy the podcast, please consider following us on Spotify and Apple Podcasts and giving us a five-star review!

As an aspiring filmmaker and journalism major, Quincy chose SUNY New Paltz for its strong academic options, lively college-town atmosphere, and food scene. He found all of that there, and as he wraps up a busy four years, Quincy reflects on his academic path, a mentorship program he joined first as a mentee and later as a mentor, launching his own podcast, writing for campus publications, and bringing his perspective and experience to dorm life as a resident assistant.For many autistic and neurodivergent college students, dorm life and having a roommate can be especially challenging, particularly in the first weeks and months of school. Quincy shares how he supports students as they settle in, including helping them find the language to navigate roommates, communication, and shared living. As more college students across the country identify as neurodiverse, many campuses still do not train resident assistants in how to best support autistic students. Drawing on his lived experience, Quincy discusses his senior capstone project, which explores how colleges can better support students on the autism spectrum.Support the show

Freshman year is often dismissed as "just the beginning," but in this episode, Sarah Bergin, Director of College Consulting at Evolved Education, explains why ninth grade quietly sets the tone for growth throughout high school. Rather than chasing perfection, Sarah encourages students and parents to focus on building strong habits, confidence, and thoughtful exploration. Freshman year is about adjustment, resilience, and setting a foundation academically and socially. Colleges are not looking for polished resumes from 14-year-olds — they're looking for evidence of growth, curiosity, and upward trends. This year becomes the baseline. How students handle new expectations, independence, and challenges matters more than flawless grades. When students prioritize consistent habits and balanced exploration, they build the confidence needed for the years ahead. You'll learn: Why freshman year grades matter more than many think The importance of habits, confidence, and appropriate challenge How extracurricular exploration sets the stage for growth Why parents should normalize adjustment and avoid projecting anxiety If your family wants guidance on setting the right foundation and building momentum early, reach out to Evolved Education for thoughtful, personalized support.

Today Fr. Gale is joined by Freshman Jess(ica) Kempf as they speak of the glories of Totus Tuus, the 1980s, and Kansas State University.

At a small college in northern Wisconsin, students whisper about a ghost named Wanda who haunts Memorial Hall.But that isn't the dorm this student is worried about.Assigned to McMillan Hall her freshman year, she expected homesickness and late-night study sessions — not the unmistakable sound of someone shifting in the bottom bunk of her empty room. At first, it was just creaking. Then it was movement. Then it was something she could almost see.When objects began sliding across the floor and lifting on their own, the unease turned into fear. And one night, she woke up running for the lights — with an injury she couldn't explain. Strangely, not every floor felt the same.So if Wanda wasn't in her building… who was?#RealGhostStoriesOnline #HauntedDorm #CollegeHaunting #WandaTheGhost #Ghosts #ParanormalEncounter #CampusGhost #TrueGhostStory #MidnightFootsteps #HauntingsLove real ghost stories?

In this episode of The Admittedly Podcast, host Thomas Caleel breaks down what freshmen (and their parents) should be thinking about as they wrap up their first semester of high school. From academic foundations to extracurricular exploration to strategic planning for summer, Thomas explains why the habits students build now will shape their options in junior and senior year — especially if they're aiming for selective or highly selective colleges. Rather than overwhelming families with long-term predictions, Thomas focuses on practical, immediate steps freshmen can take to stay on track, reduce future stress, and explore their interests with intention. Key Takeaways Academic Foundations Matter: Freshman year grades and mastery—not just passing—set the tone for your entire transcript. Weak foundations now become big problems in junior year. Teachers Should Know You: Asking questions, checking in after class, and building relationships early pays off later when rigor increases and recommendations matter. You Must Be Doing Something Outside of Class: Clubs, sports, jobs, community involvement—freshman year is about exploration, not perfection. But doing nothing is not an option. Summer Planning Starts Now: Applications for competitive or meaningful summer programs open between December and February. Freshmen need to be ahead of the curve, not scrambling in April. Choose Activities With Intention, Not Prestige: Freshman summer doesn't need to be fancy. Programs, jobs, volunteering, or personal projects all count—admissions officers care about why you did something and what you gained from it. Reading Is a Superpower: Regular reading builds critical thinking and reading speed, two skills that make a huge difference for future SAT/ACT prep and AP courses. Freshman year sets the foundation for high school. This episode walks you through how to self-assess, course-correct, and plan ahead without burning out or getting caught up in panic culture. Follow along on Instagram and TikTok @admittedlyco for more tips to stay ahead.

“Never take a class before 9:30…always have peanut butter and pretzels in your room…get your flu shot…you'll need more ramen than condoms…you fail in silence…call your parents…90% of bad decisions will happen during O-week…anchor your day in routines...don't piss off your roommate.” These are just a few of the observations Aidan shares with his dad, Ash, from his first year in college in order to separate “myth” from “reality” of what to expect during freshman year. Meanwhile, Ash tries to hold on tight while Aidan gives him a whole new perspective on what it means to “launch.” Season 5 kicks off with a bang, because the boys really don't hold anything back in this episode.
