Success isn't about waiting for the perfect moment—it's about stepping into the unknown and building the confidence to make things happen. Bayleigh dives into an inspiring conversation with Brittany Connor, who shares her journey of embracing fear, taking bold action, and proving that the biggest breakthroughs happen outside of your comfort zone. From leaving behind limiting beliefs to redefining success on your own terms, this episode is a powerful reminder that the life you want is within reach—you just have to be willing to go after it. Key Takeaways: Confidence isn't something you wake up with—it's built through action. Start before you feel ready, and growth will follow. Fear will always be there, but it shouldn't hold you back. Success comes from moving forward despite uncertainty. Success looks different for everyone. Define it on your terms, and stop chasing someone else's version of it. The right people can elevate you. Surround yourself with those who challenge, support, and inspire your growth. Growth happens outside your comfort zone. Embrace challenges as stepping stones to your next level.

Nervousness Never Truly Disappears—Learn to Manage It Even experienced speakers and athletes feel jitters; preparation is key to handling them. Practice is Essential—You Wouldn't Compete Without Training Just like in sports, speaking success comes from consistent preparation. Mindset Shift is Critical to Confidence A change in mindset, from fear to purpose, helps speakers become more effective. Mistakes Are Natural and Can Help You Connect with the Audience Audiences appreciate speakers who push through struggles rather than appearing perfect. Engagement Starts with the First Two Minutes A strong opening sets the tone; use questions, humor, or audience acknowledgment.

A Walk-Up Song or Ritual Can Help You Get in the Right Mindset Just like athletes have pre-game rituals, speakers can use music or mental exercises. Storytelling and Rhetorical Questions Engage the Audience Beginning with a thought-provoking question or story draws people in immediately. Audience First: Know Who They Are Before Crafting Your Message Content should be tailored to the audience, not just what the speaker wants to say. ----- ----more---- Your Intended Message is the podcast about how you can boost your career and business success by honing your communication skills.

Today, the next director and head coach of the Northern Arizona University Cross Country program, Coach Jarred Cornfield, returns to the podcast. With legendary Coach Mike Smith stepping down, Coach Cornfield takes over one of the most storied programs in the country. This was announced this past fall. It's an exciting time for Jarred and the program, but he wasn't just handed this job; he earned it with years of hard work. Coach Cornfield has spent nine years with NAU, six of which were as the Assistant Coach—after starting as a Graduate Assistant in 2015. Coach Cornfield is a distance and mid-distance specialist and a terrific recruiter. The Lumberjacks have won an impressive six men's national championships since 2016. On a personal level, Coach Cornfield attended Liberty University where he earned a bachelor's degree in Sport Management and then his Master's degree in Educational Leadership. He also competed as a member of the cross country and track teams. As a college runner, Jared has PRs of 1:54.47 in the 800m, 3:55.45 in the 1500m, 4:15.33 in the Mile, 29:42 in the 5K in XC, and 32:03 in the 10K in XC. While working closely with coaching legend Coach Mike Smith, Coach Cornfield has also branched out on his own, having coached Olympic athletes like Elise Cranny this past summer in Paris for the 5,000m. The NAU program is in the best of hands, and we're excited for you to hear this discussion with one of the up-and-coming coaching stars in the NCAA. In this conversation, I tackle Coach Cornfield's brain on many different coaching subject matters, and then we dive into his news, how this role came about, the lessons he's learned from Coach Smith, his ambitions and vision for the program, and so much more. Tap into the Coach Jarred Cornfield Special. If you enjoy the podcast, please consider following us on Spotify and Apple Podcasts and giving us a five-star review!

Let's suppose that you are in charge of NIL deals for a major university. All these Name, Image, Likeness deals we are hearing so much about flow through you. How would you handle it? How would you get the gig in the first place? In this version of the Sport Management Insights Podcast, we find out... from Alana Sullivan, Associate for Business Development at North Carolina State University and a recent graduate of the Sport Management Department, here at High Point University. 

We were joined by Dr. Laurence Chalip, founding editor for Sport Management Review, to talk about the establishment and early years of SMR. We talked about the planning, recruitment of authors/reviewers, establishing a footing, what changed over time, and uniqueness for the journal. We also talked about the beginning of SMAANZ and the relationship with the journal.
