Enjoy!

When was the last time your doctor mentioned your soul during treatment? I'm willing to bet never—and that's precisely the problem Dr. Catherine Kelly addresses in this profound conversation about what's missing from modern medicine and psychology."The father of medicine, Hippocrates, said the soul is present in every illness and every organ over 2,000 years ago. Carl Jung said the same for psychology. But where is it now?" Dr. Kelly asks. As a former medical school professor, she witnessed firsthand how the soul has been systematically removed from our healing traditions despite being the most foundational aspect of who we are.In this eye-opening discussion, we explore the Soul Health Model—a revolutionary framework visualizing our wellbeing as a tree with ten essential branches, including physical, psychological, interpersonal, financial, sexual, and recreational health. For practitioners interested in incorporating soul health into their work, Dr. Kelly shares details about her new certification program designed to bring this missing dimension back to healing professions. Whether you're struggling with anxiety, feeling disconnected, or simply curious about a more holistic approach to well-being, this episode offers a refreshing perspective on how reconnecting with your soul might be the missing piece in your healing journey.Bio Dr. Katherine Kelly, is a licensed psychologist in her own psychotherapy, soul-healing/coaching and consulting practice in Winston-Salem, North Carolina. She completed her Bachelor's Degree in Psychology from the University of Southern Colorado (1992) and both her Master's (1995) and Doctorate in Counseling Psychology (1999) from Indiana State University. She also earned a Master of Science in Public Health degree (2000) from the University of Missouri-Columbia, where she completed a Post-Doctoral Fellowship in the university's Department of Family and Community Medicine. She has received specialized training from the Mind-Body Medical Institute of Harvard University and has been trained in various holistic, natural health, and spiritual methods of healing, including nutritional psychotherapy, aromatherapy, Pranic Healing, Reiki, Soul Realignmen,t and other practices. Her dedication to healing has been widely recognized as she was the recipient of the Provider of the Year Award by the regional Mental Health Association and was nominated as an Incredible Woman for a local community television network, which spotlights role models to inspire young women to pursue their own passions.Website and Social Media drkatherinetkelly.comSoul Heal https://drkatherinetkelly.com/level-one-soul-health-certification/We hope you have enjoyed this episode.

In high school she had been a three-time all-state, all-metro, and first team all-conference selection. In addition, she was an assistant coach for three years for a different high school, with that team winning two Class 5 Missouri state championships during her time there. She has a Master's degree in sports psychology from the University of Missouri.  On the faith side, she is the author of a book called, "In the Trenches: Finding God Through Raising Littles" and another, released last year, called, "Real Life with Mary: Growing in Virtue to Magnify the Lord."

2024 was a hall of fame year for Vince Stilger. He was inducted into not just one state Athletic Training Association Hall of Fame but two state Athletic Training Associations Hall of Fame, West Virginia and Indiana. Well deserved honors for this Lanesville, IN native with a 43 year career in the profession. What he has packed into those 43 years is hall of fame worthy at any level. Starting at Lanesville HS as a student athletic trainer and attending a athletic training workshop at Floyd Central HS, hosted by Glen Snow with a hall of fame faculty, he was well on his way for an athletic training career that would be remarkable.

His first stop was at Saint Joseph's College in Rensselaer, IN as the head athletic trainer for four years. Then back to Indiana State as the head athletic trainer. In 1988 he became the program director for the athletic training undergraduate education program as well. This peaked an interest to purse a doctorate degree which he obtained in 1993 from Indiana University, while still volunteering with Football as a clinical athletic trainer. He spent one year at Xavier at the program director and finally landed at West Virginia University as the undergraduate program director and volunteer athletic trainer with football. He spent the next 24 years at WVU in the program director role and a volunteer clinical athletic trainer with football and baseball. He also served in leadership roles for the West Virginia Athletic Trainers' Association being elected President in 2014 to 2016. Since 1988 Vince has been the Head Athletic Trainer and Manager of Medical Services for Special Olympics Indiana in Terre Haute. This has been a special role for him and he has developed volunteer staff that looks forward to the event every year. Vince has been the recipient of the NATA service award in 2017, The West Virginia Special Recognition Award in 2018, Special Olympics Dennis Schmidt Impact Award in 2015, and West Virginia Athletic Trainers' Association 2005 Athletic Training Educator of the Year.Vince is currently the Athletic Trainer for Lanesville High School and he and his wife, Melanie, reside in Lanesville.

What are the real ways that we can embrace the complexity of our experiences? How can we let go of a scarcity mindset in favor of a mindset of abundance? How can we see the stories of others as adding something important rather than taking something away from us?What does it actually look like to make more space for people and their stories? How can we start to “build a bigger table”? Instead of dismissing our vision as unrealistic or unattainable, how can we learn to use imagination and hope as tools to make our dreams a reality? …Dr. Paul Porter is the Director of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion for the National Speech and Debate Association (NSDA).

If you're wondering which house in Terre Haute, Indiana has the most followers on Twitter, I think it's safe to say it's the one on N. 8th Street, surrounded by Indiana State University parking lots, just south of the marching band's practice fields.  It's the Eugene V. Debs museum. Long before it was a museum, it was the home of Eugene V. and Kate Debs.A hundred years ago, Eugene Debs was the most famous socialist in the U.S. He was the presidential candidate for the Socialist Party's first five attempts, which suggests how well he did on that front. The last time he ran, he was in prison. He got 6 percent of the vote. At the time, it seemed not bad for a convict.Now it's a museum, dedicated to the memory of the most popular American socialists before Bernie Sanders, and, along with Larry Bird, who got his start playing basketball for ISU, one of Terre Haute's most famous sons.The museum is run, as it should be, by one of Debs's biggest fans. Allison Duerk started giving tours of the house in college, and, just as she was graduating and looking for her first job, the Debs Museum opened up a search for a new director. She's been there ever since.This episode is about Eugene Debs and Allison Duerk. They've got some parallels. It's also about what makes a person devote their career to a house, and a man who died almost a century ago.

Brea is finishing up her second year in the DAT program at Indiana State University where she is also currently working as a GA working with a local high school. As part of the process of working through the DAT each student was required to serve as a mentor for other ATs and also reach out to a potential mentor. That is how this episode came to be. Brea and Joel go back to their time together at UW-La Crosse where Brea was a student and Joel served as a preceptor. They didn't see eye-to-eye on everything and hadn't stayed in touch after Brea graduated. The mentor program has allowed them to reconnect and that's what they discuss. The renewed connection has allowed them both to learn and that's bee a huge key to the success.

Gio got negative feedback in those chat rooms about which bass players he liked. Boomer wonders what happened to MySpace. Gio remembers having to have top 5 friends there. Boomer sent Al a video of Jerry Seinfeld talking about hating everything about family vacations. Gio said he and his family are going to Disney next year, and it won't be fun for him but it will be for the kids, so it's a sacrifice. Jerry returns for an update and starts with the Knicks beating the Kings with Kevin Harlan on the call. Seton Hall beat Indiana State University to win the NIT. Pete Alonso hit a HR in game 2 to tie it in the bottom of the ninth to help the Mets get their first win. The attorney for Rashee Rice said he wasn't running from the accident. In the final segment of the hour, we don't know the lineup yet for today's Yankees home opener. A caller wants to know what Boomer & Gio are like off the air.

Hour 1 Today is the home opener for the Yankees in the Bronx. Gio is decked out in Knicks gear as they got a great comeback win last night. They did get bad news as well, with Julius Randle opting for season ending shoulder surgery. Gio said the Mets still suck offensively, even though Gary Cohen sounded excited with their win in game 2. Jerry is here for his first update of the day but first, Stan's sent us some t-shirts since it's the Yankees home opener. Jerry has sound from the Knicks win over the Kings last night. Tom Thibodeau talked about Julius Randle opting for season ending shoulder surgery. The Mets went up 3-0 in game 1, but then didn't get another hit and lost 6-3. They did win game 2, but it took seven innings to get a hit. The A's are heading to Sacramento and the owner is excited to see Aaron Judge hitting HRs in the minor league park. In the final segment of the hour, the Yankees head into the home opener today at 6-1. There's a picture of Derrick Rose that went viral and Gio couldn't figure out why. OG Anunoby was cleared for contact which is great news after the Julius Randle bad news.  Hour 2 We came out of a commercial with ‘In Bloom' by Nirvana. Today is 30 years since we lost Kurt Cobain. Gio loved Nirvana and talked about going in AOL chat rooms to talk about playing bass. Gio got negative feedback in those chat rooms about which bass players he liked.

Boomer said he could see the Broncos taking a chance on Zach Wilson. Boomer thinks Michael Penix is really interesting for this draft. Jerry is here for another update and starts with Ron Darling from our show on opening day saying this is a playoff team, and then the booth yesterday saying they are at ‘rock bottom'. But the Mets did win game 2 of the doubleheader yesterday. Carlos Mendoza was excited to get his first win as Mets manager. Jackie Bradley Jr has signed with the Long Island Ducks, which Gio called, ‘rock bottom'. The Knicks beat the Kings but Julius Randle's season is over as he's having shoulder surgery. In the final segment of the hour, with the Yankees home opener happening today, Stan's sent us some t-shirts. They also sent over Stan's women's panties. Gio remembers people wearing panties on their face as a Covid mask.  Hour 4 It's the Yankees home opener today and Marcus Stroman is on the mound. He has blocked a ton of people on social media and we just want him to pitch well. Tomorrow is Boomer's son, Gunnar's, 33rd birthday.

Tommy Lugauer was angry with Jeff McNeil, ‘swing a bat!!' Carlos Mendoza said they have too many good hitters for this to go on much longer. The Knicks came back from down 21 to beat the Kings. Seton Hall beat Indiana State to win the NIT. The Moment of The Day involves Al not being able to name one player in the history of the Sacramento Kings.

Today's guest is Darren Angell, Assistant to the Head Coach at Furman University! Darren is the first ever “run it back episode” on Sports Business Secrets. Which is awesome for a few reasons. First, it means I've been bringing on experts in the industry for a long time. Second, and more importantly, he has pivoted to a different role in the sports business world so we get to learn a new perspective! Darren played basketball at Mercyhurst University before getting his law degree from the University of Kansas. He spent many years practicing law as an attorney in Chicago, during which time he simultaneously represented professional basketball players as a licensed sports agent. He had a change of heart in 2021 to get back into the coaching world, and after a giant leap of faith and found himself on staff at Indiana State University. Fast forward to today he is in his second year with Furman University with a role that I like to refer to as, “the most important job in modern college basketball.” Today we talked about…. leaving law and jumping back into college sports his first role as a director of basketball operations the opportunity to join coach Richey's staff at Furman the extraordinary NCAA Tournament win in 2023 his role as the “chief of staff” and what that entails why coaching staffs need to manage the business side NIL updates and how Furman is navigating that space What fundraising means for college basketball The challenges of building a culture in today's landscape What the future college landscape looks like and much more Appreciate you tuning in.

How was it that the CIO was finally able to make good on the decades-old dream of industrial unionism? In this episode, we outline four factors that were the keys to the CIO's success. First, there was a political opportunity that the CIO took advantage of. Second, there were militant and disruptive tactics employed that were effective given that political opportunity. Third, there was the great energy and commitment of the Left as channeled toward the stable end of collective bargaining. And finally, there was what podcast guest Lizabeth Cohen has called the “culture of unity” bred by the CIO. The first factor was covered in Episode 2, and the second in Episode 3, and so we won't rehash that material here. This episode is thus focused on the latter two: the influence of the Left and the culture of unity.
