We dive into the ACC with the first of our three-part conference preview and talk through our contender tiers, the biggest questions and storylines driving the narrative, and use ice cream and video games as a metaphor for the way the league sets up. From Clemson's title hopes to Miami's untapped Playoff hopes, we unpack what makes this conference so damn fascinating. In this college football podcast episode, we discuss why the ACC in 2025 feels like a grand experiment. We debate Clemson as the clear conference favorite, analyze the battle for second place and discuss Ty's surprise contender. Plus, we examine the coaching moves that will have an impact, from Bill Belichick at North Carolina to coordinator changes at Florida State, Virginia Tech and beyond. We also explore the volatility of the middle of the ACC, with nine teams that could easily go 4-8 or 8-4, debate which quarterback transfers will make the biggest impact, and wonder if it's safe to feel this good about Duke football. Also, is this Virginia Tech's make-or-break year? Can Syracuse survive their brutal schedule? And why does every team seem to have a Texas State transfer? Consider this your starter pack for navigating the beautiful chaos of the ACC football in 2025.

Covering the Commonwealth ft. JMU, UVA, Virginia Tech by Ed Lane

Dive into Episode #148 of the Psych Health and Safety USA Podcast, featuring host Dr. I. David Daniels, PhD, CSD, VPS, and special guest Gloria Hartley, the Civil Rights Compliance Coordinator at the College of Agriculture and Life Sciences at Virginia Tech University. She is also the child of immigrants, a veteran of the United States Navy, and has spent over a decade in and around the human resource space in both the private and public sectors. One of her professional goals has been to convert conversations about Civil and Human Rights into practical language and steps that people can take to protect workers and the organization. Civil rights and psychosocial safety are deeply interconnected. Civil rights ensure that individuals are protected from discrimination and have equal access to opportunities, which is fundamental for creating a safe and inclusive environment. Psychosocial safety, however, refers to the psychological and social conditions that allow individuals to feel safe, respected, and valued in their communities and workplaces. Individuals are more likely to experience psychosocial safety when civil rights are upheld because they are protected from discrimination, harassment, and other forms of harm. This creates an environment where people can express themselves freely, participate fully in society, and feel a sense of belonging. Conversely, when civil rights are violated, it can lead to a lack of psychosocial safety, resulting in stress, anxiety, and other adverse mental health outcomes.

EPISODE: Virginia Tech Is Tackling the Opioid Epidemic with Evidence-Based Practices | Featuring: Shannon Rogers Simpson, VT Extension – Halifax County Topic: What Is Social Emotional Learning (SEL) and Why It MattersSEL, or Social Emotional Learning, is the process through which individuals—especially children and youth—learn how to understand and manage emotions, set and achieve positive goals, feel and show empathy for others, maintain healthy relationships, and make responsible decisions. It's not just for schools—these are life skills we all need to navigate trauma, conflict, grief, addiction, and daily challenges. That's why Virginia Tech, through its Cooperative Extension arm, is prioritizing SEL in places like Halifax County—where the opioid crisis has deeply impacted families. VT is equipping educators, parents, and community members with free, research-backed tools; collecting real-time data to inform better programs; and building resilience from the ground up—not just treating symptoms, but shifting systems.Shawn A. Barksdale credits his progress in community and reentry spaces to the one-on-one training and mentorship he's received from Shannon Rogers Simpson. Her guidance in SEL, ACES (Adverse Childhood Experiences), and Botvin Parenting skills has allowed Shawn to implement evidence-based programs in correctional institutions—building trust, capturing powerful data, and helping returning citizens gain the emotional tools they need to succeed. That impact is growing—and so is the COPE Project's reach.We know many of you won't “like” or “share” this post—but you are reading. You are watching. And you are listening.

Lauren catches up with travel writer Will McGough more than a decade after they met on a ski trip to Portillo, Chile. What starts as a story about skiing shifts into something bigger: memory, grief, ethics, and the tricky line between telling a good story and protecting what's worth protecting.Will shares how covering the Virginia Tech shooting early in his journalism career shook his belief in the news cycle and pushed him toward something with more life in it: travel writing. Since then, he's written for CNN, Outside, and dozens of others, carrying both curiosity and a sense of responsibility into every piece. He's reported from Antarctica, dragged skis through remote villages, built a kombucha company, and wrestled with what it means to write about places that are being loved to death.This is a conversation about the stories we choose to tell, the ones we can't forget, and the ones we carry even when we think we've left them behind.Topics include: • The ethics of writing about “hidden gems” • Skiing culture, then vs. now • Why Portillo still matters • Grieving a parent, and what Antarctica had to do with that • How kombucha fits into all of this • What good journalism should actually do • Writing as a way to remember, and to make sense of things that don'tYou can learn more about Will at www.wakeandwander.com

Welcome to the Arete Coach Podcast hosted by Severin Sorensen with an episode titled "Leading with Kindness: On Executive Coaching and Cultural Intelligence." In this episode, Severin engages with Dr. Krista Crawford, a distinguished Vistage Chair, speaker, consultant, professor, and leadership strategist. Krista holds a PhD in Organizational Management and is a Senior Professional in Human Resources (SPHR). With over 30 years of experience spanning human resources, organizational development, and executive leadership, she has significantly impacted leaders across corporate and nonprofit sectors. This episode was recorded on March 26th, 2025, via Zoom. Krista's journey into executive coaching and Vistage Chairing is as unique as it is inspiring. After decades in HR, where she led organizations with up to 8,000 employees, Krista transitioned into leadership coaching serendipitously during the COVID-19 pandemic. A neighbor introduced her to Vistage, leading to her eventual certification and the establishment of multiple peer advisory groups. Her career is deeply rooted in observing and addressing the human dynamics within organizations. Krista identified early the gaps in leadership development, particularly how some employees flourish while others feel disconnected. Her doctoral research focused on "social monitoring" and "cultural intelligence," exploring how individuals adapt and integrate into diverse cultural settings. Conducted in Belize with service-learning students, her research revealed that active engagement with local cultures significantly enhances cultural intelligence. Beyond her coaching, Krista serves as an adjunct professor at Virginia Tech and Champlain College, teaching leadership, ethics, and organizational development. She brings a rich blend of academic rigor and practical experience, leveraging her HR expertise, research acumen, and passion for continuous learning to guide executives and emerging leaders. Key Insights 1. The Art of Listening and Pausing Krista emphasizes the importance of listening to hear rather than listening to respond. In coaching, silence is a powerful tool, allowing clients to reflect deeply. She practices intentional breathing to create space for reflection and meaningful dialogue. 2. The Power of Vulnerability and Group Dynamics She highlights how vulnerability within peer groups fosters deeper trust and growth. Krista shared a pivotal moment when a group conflict tested cohesion; addressing it transparently strengthened the group's unity and resilience. 3. Job Crafting for Engagement Krista advocates for job crafting, encouraging leaders to engage employees in designing roles that align with their strengths and passions, thus enhancing satisfaction and retention. 4. Measuring Success Through Joy Joy serves as Krista's personal metric for professional fulfillment. She believes that work should bring joy and that leaders should reassess their roles when joy diminishes. 5. Use of Psychometrics and AI in Coaching Krista integrates tools like Wiley DiSC and various psychometric assessments to deepen understanding of team dynamics. She also creatively employs AI for ideation, content creation, and meeting preparation, demonstrating adaptability to emerging technologies. 6. Kindness and Continuous Learning as Guiding Values Krista's mantras of "kindness is underrated" and lifelong learning reflect her approach to leadership and coaching. She stresses the importance of being both kind and courageous in providing candid, constructive feedback. The Arete Coach Podcast explores the art and science of executive coaching.
