There's no magic formula to predict and perfect life's trajectories, but are there steps you can take? Yes, according to Jacob Nelsen, author of The Operator. Nelsen, Vanguard's youngest best-selling author, is a graduate of The University of Akron College of Business as well as the School of Law by age 22 and begins a master's program at Harvard University this fall. Nelson's book is described as part memoir, part doctrine. He talks about that and more in this episode of ZipsUnlimited.The following links were provided by Jacob Nelson:Vanguard Article: Jacob J.

I first met Heather about 25 years ago when we were navigating friendships and crushes while beginning to walk with Jesus. Today, we take a little walk down the halls of Lassiter High School and reflect on the people and decisions that formed us into who we are today.Heather Nelsen is now married to her high school sweetheart, Matt.  Together they live with their 4 precious kids down the road from where we grew up, just outside of Atlanta, Georgia. She shares the story behind her travel account Making Home Here, and how that project grew out of a simple, intentional hope: to raise kids who see the world, serve others, and recognize they can use their gifts and resources to make a difference, even from a young age.We talk about practical choices they've made as a family to cultivate curiosity, service, and perspective in their children. We touch on how even the most challenging aspects of travel have paved the way for faith-building conversations. Heather also gives some practical tips for making memorable experiences accessible, why travel is so important for building a family culture, and how she's wrestling through managing a public account as she seeks to honor her kids.Memorable Quotes:Whit: “Be steady in faithfully serving the Lord where you are because you really just don't know, you don't know the impact that your life might have at any stage.”“As far as everyday life, I'm trying to be more conscious of what I record and what I share and make sure they're a part of giving their permission for that.” “Matt and I just had an honest conversation, several honest conversations, about how we want our kids to grow up feeling thankful for what they have but also to have an understanding of how other people live, and we wanted and still want for them to know that they can make an impact no matter their age, no matter their finances… so for us, what we said, is we want our kids to learn how to serve at a young age and we want them to understand what they've been given, and what they can do with what they've been given, either in their time, or talents, or even in their finances at an early age.” (around 8-9 minutes)“When you get back from the trip, every day of life has its low moments, but we always found when we got back from a trip what stuck with us was all the highs…you learn, you grow so much as a family, you rely on each other so differently…”“Being able to say, this is how Jesus loved people, what you guys are doing when you're tired and when you're hot, this is what Jesus did and this is what you're doing.”“I think my stand on it is that I never want to live in fear, I do feel like God has called me to this, and it's just a matter of always re-evaluating what this is, ya know? How does He want to use this, what is the purpose of this, is the purpose still supposed to be the same, and then just honoring our kids as they get older.”“I think now, for now, is just I am only going to post when I feel like I have something to share, and I'm going to make sure it's ok with our kids if it's something they're a part of.”“Some of our favorite trips have been the most simple ones.” Show Notes:One World Health  Healing Waters410 BridgeIG: @makinghomehere

My guest today is Ryan Nelsen, Chief Marketing Officer at StackAdapt. If you're not familiar with StackAdapt, think of it as the engine behind a lot of the digital advertising you actually notice. Not the spray-and-pray banner ads that follow you around like a bad decision, but the smarter, more intentional kind. The kind that uses data, AI, and programmatic technology to put the right message in front of the right person at the right moment without feeling like it's shouting at you. That's where Ryan comes in. As CMO, he's leading everything from global marketing to brand to communications, helping shape how a company like StackAdapt shows up in a space that's crowded, noisy, and constantly evolving. Because when you're operating in ad tech, you're not just competing for attention; you're competing for relevance.

Alfalfa Weevils | Randy Nelsen, Wester Region Location Manager | 4/29/26 by Ag Valley Co-op

"The Magnificent Mr. & Mrs. Maple" is the (almost) true story of two trees in a Harlem garden and the family of plants & critters that love them. When fate threatens to separate them, they all learn to value the invisible bonds of love and family.In addition to Mr. & Mrs. Maple, there is Nosy, the busybody bee...a silly spider named Sally and JoRo, a jolly pigeon. Juniper and Boxwood round out the blended family who make their home on a New York City terrace overlooking the famous Apollo Theater.Charmingly illustrated, this long-distance love story for children will also be enjoyed by adults and help readers understand that everyone can "bloom where they're planted," even when separated by circumstances beyond their control. The Foreword, by NYT Bestselling author Dr. Kerry Burnight, further emphasizes the benefits of the theme for older individuals.Out Everywhere  books are sold or got nelsonaspen.comOut everyhwere

Some things never get old…. Like the opportunity tointroduce a songwriter from  the Heartland to a radio audience for the first time.  I had the opportunity during a recent “Pledge Drive” on KKFI to introduce songwriter and Topeka, KS firefighter Caleb Nelsen to the Heartland's airwaves.  Caleb's has over a decade of writing and performing behindhim… a sound that  is a mix of Americana roots, shaped by influences from country, rock, pop, and punk creating musicthat is uniquely his own.Enjoy this conversation and live music performance fromCaleb Nelsen that includes several selections including a tune called “Open Space,”  a clear reflection of the grit and honesty that defines his sound drawn from real-life experience.#rootsmusic #countrymusic #songwriter #songwriting

Chloe Nelsen, at 16 years old, became the first female to win the Championship Compound Young Adult division at the Vegas Shoot in 2026, just two months after winning Youth Female Open at the Lancaster Archery Classic.

We talked to her about the Vegas Shoot, where she was initially declared the third-place finisher, about juggling high school and top-level, competitive archery and about how she approaches the sport at her age.

Angostura Bitters is the essential ingredient in many cocktails, including the Wisconsin staple, the Old Fashioned. And it is the concoction that made Nelsen's Hall and Washington Island famous. But the company and the beverage have always been a bit of a mystery. Robert Simonson, cocktail writer for the New York Times, journeyed to the distillery in Trinidad to get answers about Angostura, and even found some. His story about the journey appears in the winter edition of Door County Living. He joins Myles Dannhausen Jr. to talk bitters, the rebirth of cocktails, and the evolution of the bartending craft.

Matthew D. Nelsen, an Assistant Professor of Political Science at the University of Miami, has a new book out that focuses on the content of civic education in the United States, and how we learn about the diverse and varied history of the United States. There is an ongoing and contemporary conversation about civic education in the United States, and what should and should not be taught in explaining the United States, how it works, who is part of it, and how it has evolved over four centuries. Nelsen's work, The Color of Civics: Civic Education for a Multiracial Democracy (Oxford UP, 2023), pays close attention to what happens in classrooms, particularly urban classrooms, when these lessons are taught, and how students respond to these curricula and experiences. What he finds should be of interest to all of us, since it gets to the very heart of civic education, which is how to teach young people about being citizens in a democracy. Nelsen poses these broader questions throughout the book: Who is learning what? What is the general social studies curriculum that discusses “how a bill becomes a law” and the basic information about separation of powers and checks and balances? How is this curriculum, which is both somewhat abstract and also an idealized version of the American political system, taught, and how is it engaged by students? Nelsen found a variety of answers, but what is of particular interest is that there are teachers and instructors who have taken this somewhat static curriculum, and integrated different dimensions to it, engaging students in understandings of social movements, highlighting activities by a number of different political leaders, from both mainstream and marginalized groups. When the education becomes more multifaceted, it pulls in more students, and allows them to see themselves in these activities, even in leadership roles. And it also is more encompassing for all of the students in the classroom, regardless of race or other identity groupings. The Color of Civics pulls together a variety of forms and kinds of research methodology to understand what happens in classrooms and how students learn and see themselves within this fabric of American democracy. Using qualitative, quantitative, and ethnographic approaches, Nelsen weaves together robust data to explore what makes diverse impacts within the classrooms, especially within a big, urban public school system. Part of what is teased out in this research is the potential longevity of political socialization that transpires at an early age among students—this is a key dimension of citizenship, creating in individuals an understanding of their role and capacities within a democracy. The ability to teach about social movements, and political movements, and the individuals who were involved in these movements expands the concept of citizen participation in American politics and thus expands the notion of citizenship in general. This approach also moves beyond the “great man” narrative of history and helps students to think about how various people engage in politics, not just by running for elected office. Nelsen's work is important and useful as we continue to consider how citizens can and should participate in American politics and how the next generation is taught about citizenship, the American republic, and the idea of a complex democracy.

Lydia Nelsen returns with some FIERY feelings about how she's been treated by this week's host (and always co-host), Michael Heiman. We dig deep into things we'll never do again, from New Year's Eve parties to questionable food choices, to what happens when your kids outgrow activities before you realize it. We plan playwright festivals in poor taste, consider unique reincarnation options, and decide just who Halloween is really for. This, a lot of host-bashing, and so much more on this week's episode of The Super Legit Podcast!  Cast: Sean Michael Boozer, Jen Burton, Chris Compton, Michael Heiman, Stephen C.

First, let me start by saying that the devastation from the wildfires in the LA area is horrific. Our hearts go out to everyone who has had to experience a climate disaster. Unfortunately, these events will likely become more frequent and widespread. We plan to discuss climate disasters more and how to prepare for them in the future, but for now, we will focus on some policies that no doubt influence and fuel climate change.  In episode 164 of the Outdoor Minimalist podcast, we discuss offshore drilling. More specifically, we will learn about the intersection between outdoor recreation economies and how activities like offshore drilling impact them.  To help explain the scope of this issue, I had the pleasure of sitting down to chat with Chad Nelsen.  Dr. Chad Nelsen is the CEO of the Surfrider Foundation, the world's largest grassroots coastal and ocean conservation organization dedicated to protecting and enjoying the world's oceans, waves, and beaches. Chad has over 25 years of experience in ocean and coastal conservation and works at the intersection of advocacy, ocean recreation, and grassroots organizing to confront some of our most pressing challenges, including climate change, plastic pollution, and poor water quality.  With a geology degree from Brown University, a Masters in Coastal Environmental Management from Duke University, and an Environmental Science and Engineering doctorate from UCLA, Chad has a strong foundation in science, policy, and management. Through his research at UCLA, Chad became a founder in the field of “surfonomics,” the study of the economic values of surfing and ocean recreation.  Chad lives in Laguna Beach with his family and enjoys surfing, hiking, mountain biking, climbing, and snowboarding with his family.  After this interview was recorded, President Biden announced the withdrawal of the entire US East Coast, the eastern Gulf of Mexico, and the Pacific off the coasts of Washington, Oregon, and California, and additional portions of the northern Bering Sea in Alaska from future oil and gas leasing. Taken under the authority of the Outer Continental Shelf Lands Act, this permanently protects more than 625 million acres of US Waters from any future oil and gas development in 5-year offshore drilling plans developed by the federal government.  Surfrider and Chad Nelsen released a statement about this on January 6th:  "The Surfrider Foundation applauds the Biden administration for withdrawing these waters from future oil and gas leasing. Offshore drilling is a dirty and damaging practice that harms our ocean as well as communities and businesses while worsening climate change. The President's historic action is a key step toward ending oil and gas drilling in US waters. We call on our federal leaders to take further steps to ensure that all US coasts are protected from this harmful industry," INSTAGRAM: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/outdoor.minimalist.book/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ WEBSITE: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.theoutdoorminimalist.com/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ YOUTUBE: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@theoutdoorminimalist ORDER THE BOOK: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.theoutdoorminimalist.com/book⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ LISTENER SURVEY: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://forms.gle/jd8UCN2LL3AQst976⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ---------------------- Surfrider Foundation Website: https://www.surfrider.org/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/Surfrider/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/SurfriderFoundation Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/surfrider/

Dr. Chad Nelsen, CEO of the Surfrider Foundation, joins us on The Lineup to discuss his role in protecting the world's oceans, waves, and beaches. From Surfrider's hometown of Laguna Beach, Dr. Nelsen shares insights on the foundation's 40th anniversary, their network of 200+ chapters, and the complex evolution of environmental activism. We dive into real-world challenges—mangrove deforestation in Puerto Rico and coastal erosion on Hawaii's North Shore—and discuss how the Surfrider Foundation combines legal and scientific strategies to tackle these issues. Dr. Nelsen also opens up about his journey, from growing up in a surfing family on Long Island to his lifelong commitment to ocean conservation. He reflects on the impact of climate change on coastlines and the need for public action, urging listeners to get involved in the fight for sustainable practices. We explore how surfing, though a niche sport, can drive environmental awareness and political influence. A key example is the Save Trestles campaign, which successfully halted plans for a six-lane toll road that would have cut through San Onofre State Beach, the Donna O'Neill Land Conservancy, sacred Native American sites, and threatened the San Mateo Creek Watershed. With partnerships with local communities, WSL and WSL PURE, as well as ambassadors like Carissa Moore, Dr. Cliff Kapono, and Greg Long, the Surfrider Foundation strives to inspire both surfers and non-surfers alike to make a difference. Tune in to learn more about Dr. Chad Nelsen and how joining a local Surfrider chapter can empower communities and spark positive change. Learn more about Surfrider here and follow them here.

The earliest renditions of the Olympics featured a whole lot of running and a whole lot of nudity. Today, there may be a little less nakedness, but running still remains a pillar of the modern Olympic Games. So it's only fitting that we unpack one of the most bizarre events in the history of the games - the 1904 Marathon in St. Louis. Today on Found Objects, we will also delve into the origins of the games in Ancient Greece and their long awaited return in 1896. You will soon learn that the events may have modernized, but the tradition lives on. Just in time for us to celebrate the start of the 33rd Olympiad! Follow us on instagram:instagram.com/foundobjectspodcastSOURCES:10 Amazing Ancient Olympic Facts, History Channel, 2021, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-a7vuvHuPic.Abbott, Karen. “How the 1904 Marathon Became One of the Weirdest Olympic Events of All Time.” Smithsonian.Com, Smithsonian Institution, 7 Aug. 2012, www.smithsonianmag.com/history/how-the-1904-marathon-became-one-of-the-weirdest-olympic-events-of-all-time-14910747/.“Ancient Olympic Games.” Wikipedia, Wikimedia Foundation, 18 July 2024, en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ancient_Olympic_Games.History.com Editors. “First Modern Olympic Games | April 6, 1896.” History.Com, A&E Television Networks, www.history.com/this-day-in-history/first-modern-olympic-games.
