Reversing pandemic-era admission policies, more universities, including MIT, Yale, Dartmouth and Brown, are again requiring that applicants submit SAT or ACT scores. Research has shown that high scores on the tests are a good predictor of college success, and proponents say that the tests are a more equitable metric than a student's GPA. In California, public colleges – including the UCs and Cal State schools – remain “test blind” and will not consider a student's scores, even if submitted. We'll look at arguments on both sides and get tips for prospective students who are navigating testing issues. Would you like to see the SAT and ACT come back in California? Do you think the tests helped or hurt your college application? Guests: Anna Esaki-Smith, author, “Make College Your Superpower: It's Not Where You Go, It's What You Know;" co-founder, Education Rethink; contributor, Forbes Jeff Selingo, author, "Who Gets In & Why: A Year Inside College Admissions," "There is Life After College" and "College (Un)Bound: The Future of Higher Education and What It Means for Students" Eddie Comeaux, professor and associate dean of graduate education, University of California Riverside

*Coaches & Leaders: Tap a Game-Changing Credential - The Certified Sparketype® Advisor Training. Next Training starts March 2024. Why do we feel so bad when we say no to people? Even to complete strangers who request our time, advice or even money out of the blue? What's going on there? What is the deeper psychology of our inability to comfortably and shamelessly just say no? Even to people and things that sound genuinely interesting, but are not landing at a moment when we have the capacity to say yes? This dilemma shows up at work all the time, and also in every other part of life and personal relationships. We worry about disappointing others, missing out on something better, or even jeopardizing work relationships. But what if reclaiming the lost art of "no" opened up space for what matters most? If you struggle to decline without guilt, tune in for permission to reframe "no" as an act of self-care.  In today's episode we're digging into: What are some of the reasons people feel compelled to perpetually say yes and have difficulty saying no? What motivations compel chronic people-pleasers to overcommit?  How can systems eliminate the need for repeated no's?  What decision filters discern a clear yes from an energy-draining maybe?  SPARKED HOT TAKE WITH: Jenny Blake | Website Jenny is a podcaster, career and business strategist, and an award-winning author of three books: Life After College, the groundbreaking Pivot for navigating what's next, and her recently published Free Time for optimizing what's now.  YOUR HOST: Jonathan Fields Jonathan is a dad, husband, award-winning author, multi-time founder, executive producer and host of the Good Life Project podcast, and co-host of SPARKED, too!

It was inevitable, I suppose: everything that the progressive movement touches it progressively erodes, and then eventually, progressively destroys. There was a time when the term 'Harvard graduate' meant a guarantee of quality. Now, it barely covers 'minimally competent' and also brings all kinds of certain ideological baggage -- the kind of baggage it would take to destroy the number one beer brand in America, just as one example. The shift from academies of learning into centers of indoctrination means that brick and mortar colleges and universities are on their way out and they are not coming back. And it's a genuine shame.

Have you ever looked at someone else, someone you admire, who's maybe accomplished a lot, and just assumed they must be wildly confident and always winning at everything? You're not alone. But, the truth, it turns out, is much more complex.  So many of those luminaries are not, in fact wildly, or even remotely confident. And if they are, they go through cycles of profound change, self-doubt, struggle and, when they learn to harness these experiences, revelation and even reinvention. In today's episode, Jenny shares a deeply personal and timely example of her own journey through seasons of confidence, struggle, and renewal. And in an unexpected, yet deeply powerful moment, Jenny shares a ‘Sparked Exclusive' revealing that she began, almost covertly, creating something ‘from the mess' in hopes of helping others feel less alone in their struggles. She wonders: Can sharing our human flaws and uncertainties actually complement our expertise and advice, providing value in its own way?  Find out more about Jenny's vulnerable reveal here: http://itsfreetime.com/secret Watch ‘Save Me' on Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FxFNprPOdss SPARKED HOT TAKE WITH: Jenny Blake | Website Jenny is a podcaster, career and business strategist, and an award-winning author of three books: Life After College, the groundbreaking Pivot for navigating what's next, and her recently published Free Time for optimizing what's now.  YOUR HOST: Jonathan Fields Jonathan is a dad, husband, award-winning author, multi-time founder, executive producer and host of the Good Life Project podcast, and co-host of SPARKED, too!

Got a career or business question for the Brainstrust? Submit here. Question - when it comes to work, do you really care about being more productive, or is the real goal to get all the important stuff done, but in a way that actually gives you back more free time to do the things, in both work and life, that you're genuinely passionate about and excited to do? Because, they're not the same.  Sometimes, we talk about productivity as if it's the end-goal. It's not. The real goal is what it gives us. Which begs a question, are all those productivity methods, tools, strategies actually working for you? Are they giving you back your life? And the free time to choose what matters most, even if it's just taking a nap or playing, and spend more time doing just that? This is where we're heading in today's provocative hot take with SPARKED Braintrust regular, Jenny Blake. These Hot Take episodes are where we look at hot topics in conversation with expert guides from the SPARKED Braintrust. In today's Hot Take episode, Jonathan & Jenny discuss: The benefit of scheduling a ‘do not schedule' time block on your calendar Asking what can you batch, delegate or automate? The power of A-synchronous communication tools How a rolling agenda can save you time and bring less friction to a meeting Why we need to run our own experiments on when and what works best for us Why we shouldn't underestimate how helpful systems & processes can be ie. Canned or Guided Responses in your email for repeating conversations And, today, we're going on a myth-busting journey, taking a bit of an ax to old school ideas of productivity, efficiency, and effectiveness, and sharing powerful insights and practical tools from her body of work designed not just to help you be more productive, but to literally create a volume of free time you never knew was possible.   Jenny also reminds us that ‘Free Time' is not about floating through life as if on perpetual vacation. Free Time is about optionality: the ability to choose when you work, with whom, and on the projects that most excite you—on the work that you and only you can do. It is about moving from friction to flow through the power of focus and smart systems.

You know what we realized? Nothing can prepare you for life after college. College doesn't even really prepare you for life after college. Don't get us wrong, college prepares you academically, socially and professionally. But what about when it's time to move to a new city? To start paying bills? Start a new job? Make new friends? Live on your own? Only experiences can prepare you for those things and more. In this episode, we're joined by our friend Chelsea, to discuss the huge learning curve that comes with post-grad life. Do you have any stories to share or things that surprised you after college life? Shoot us an email or comment on our social media pages!

Got a career or business question for the Brainstrust? Submit here. How do you satisfy an impulse to build a living around multiple passions and be in constant learning and growth mode, in a work world that keeps pushing you to pick a single passion or skill-set, become an expert and just keep doing that one thing for life?  Jonathan & Jenny offer: Closing the communication gap with multiple resumes / portfolios Pitching your varied skillset as an asset and differentiator not a detractor Is it about the size of the organization or actually the scope of opportunity for growth / learning? Finding your thriving style instead of trying to ‘fit or pigeon hole' How to query all the ‘shoulds' Find your guiding lights, even if you're not connected with them directly Concept mentioned: Steven Johnson ‘The adjacent possible' - quick explainer In today's episode we're in conversation with: SPARKED BRAINTRUST ADVISOR: Jenny Blake | Website Jenny is a podcaster, career and business strategist, and an award-winning author of three books: Life After College, the groundbreaking Pivot for navigating what's next, and her recently published Free Time for optimizing what's now.  LISTENER: Sarah, Sparketype: Maven/Performer Today's listener Sarah shares that when she works in less purposeful, single-focused, non-growth-oriented roles she becomes drained and uninspired once the initial novelty has worn off. She wants to reclaim ‘play' and variety, pursue different passions and she's fine always learning and not being an established expert in any one domain. But, Sarah feels like potential employers want to hire people who are committed to one craft and is feeling pressured to pick a path or profession that feels too limiting. And, she's not alone. So, how do you handle expressing an impulse for many things when the world of work wants you to be one thing?

Josh and Alex sit down and discuss how technology may be harming us as a society. Factors such as dopamine can make everyday life feel kind boring and bland. The boys also discuss the idea of working full time on your passion vs keeping it as a side gig. We wanted to change it up for this episode and start to answer some questions about life. The plan is to do more episodes in this style while also continuing our shows with guests. Check out our merch: https://www.orchardeight.com/store/p/mvp-podcast-t-shirt

What do you do when the job you've had for years and the organization you work for change in ways that no longer feel compatible with you doing your best work, showing up as your best self and truly coming alive? Today's listener, Gretchen, shares how major changes to her job as a college professor, after decades in the classroom, and also awakening to the call to let a different part of her take the lead, are inspiring new questions and insights. In a bid to add some variety to her role she began mentoring her college's football team, and much to her surprise, found that she really enjoyed it, potentially even more than teaching, a profession she'd been doing for over 20 years. As she considers her next steps, she wonders whether you adapt an existing role to your evolving interests, and if so, how? And is there a way to put your unique spin on a longstanding, traditional profession to reimagine doing it in a way that Sparks you again? In today's episode we're in conversation with: SPARKED BRAINTRUST ADVISOR: Jenny Blake | Website Jenny is a podcaster, career and business strategist, and an award-winning author of three books: Life After College, the groundbreaking Pivot for navigating what's next, and her recently published Free Time for optimizing what's now.  LISTENER: Gretchen, Sparketype: Advisor/Sage YOUR HOST: Jonathan Fields Jonathan is a dad, husband, award-winning author, multi-time founder, executive producer and host of the Good Life Project podcast, and co-host of SPARKED, too!

Jonathan & Jenny talk about: How you don't have to have your pivot planned out Using experiments to collect data Following the full body yes What is a project based purpose? How do we look at uncertainty differently? Are you a builder, maintainer or an optimizer?   We're super-excited to be introducing some fresh new formats to the mix here on the SPARKED podcast. Our new Hot Takes segments, which we just launched a few weeks back, tackle hot topics in conversation with expert guides from the SPARKED Braintrust. And, today, we're sharing the second Sparked Hot Take, this time with Jenny Blake.  We talk about something that Jenny and I often muse on off-mic; uncertainty, reinventing work & life and putting yourself in the path of pivot, as Jenny says. We're taking a fresh approach to ‘pivots', especially in this time of across the board uncertainty. We discuss ways of courageously embracing change and using experiments to collect data about what you might be called to do next. How do you follow the full body yes? And what is ‘project based purpose'? We question why some of us prefer building things over maintaining them and how to embrace your preferences. And, deepening into this conversation on pivoting and uncertainty is Sparked Braintrust advisor, Jenny Blake. Jenny is a podcaster, career and business strategist, and an award-winning author of three books: Life After College, the groundbreaking Pivot for navigating what's next, and her recently published Free Time for optimizing what's now.  Enjoy this Sparked Hot Take on change and experimentation in a time when most of us have been navigating both.
