What if the biggest mistake in college admissions is trying to impress colleges instead of helping them understand who you are?In this episode, Lisa Marker-Robbins sits down with Susan Knoppow to discuss what admissions officers are actually looking for, why applicants often miss the point of essay prompts, and how a strong process leads to stronger essays.In this episode, Lisa and Susan discuss:How colleges evaluate applicants beyond grades and test scoresThe importance of supplemental essaysBalancing authenticity with strategy in the application processManaging the essay process without unnecessary pressureKey Takeaways: Many applicants spend too much time trying to sound impressive when admissions officers are more interested in whether they answer the question and reveal something meaningful about themselves.Personal statements are most effective when they focus on character and personal growth, while supplemental essays often provide evidence of fit, direction, preparation, and interest in a specific major or institution.Students do not need extraordinary accomplishments or dramatic stories to stand out. What matters more is self awareness, authenticity, and a clear understanding of their goals.A structured process that includes reflection, brainstorming, drafting, revising, and a realistic timeline can lead to stronger essays and less stress for both students and parents. “The lower the stakes, the better the student actually performs.” – Susan KnoppowAbout Susan Knoppow: Susan is the CEO and co-founder of Wow Writing Workshop, where she created the Wow Method, a simple, ten step process for writing college essays used by thousands of students, counselors, and educational consultants. A former executive speechwriter and copywriter, she is also a published poet and essayist. She holds a BA in Psychology from the University of Michigan and an MFA in Writing from Vermont College.Episode References:Download Susan's free 10 Step College Essay Writing Guide: https://wowwritingworkshop.com/flourishExplore admission by major at all 50 state flagship universities: https://courses.flourishcoachingco.com/majorsGet Lisa's Free on-demand video: THE CAREER IDENTIFICATION COMPASS: How To Be Certain Your 15 To 25 Year Old is On The Right Path to Launch With Confidence–Not Confusion: flourishcoachingco.com/video Connect with Susan:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/wowessayexpertsFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/wowwritingYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@wowwritingworkshopWebsite: https://wowwritingworkshop.comLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/susanknoppow/Connect with Lisa:Website: https://www.flourishcoachingco.com/YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@flourishcoachingcoFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/flourishcoachingco/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/flourishcoachingco/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/flourish-coaching-co

What if the biggest summer mistake isn't doing too much, but doing too little with the extra time available?In this solo episode, Lisa Marker-Robbins explains why families who treat summer as a time to simply relax often reach Labor Day feeling behind, highlighting the difference between rest and rejuvenation and showing how intentional action can help students build confidence, momentum, and direction for what comes next.Lisa also shares practical strategies to help teens and young adults gain self-awareness, explore future possibilities, build momentum, and enter the fall with greater clarity, confidence, and direction.In this episode, you'll discover:Seasonal habits and their long-term emotional impactThe relationship between unstructured time, responsibility, and personal growthHow young adults respond to uncertainty and expectationsCreating sustainable momentum during periods of transitionKey Takeaways: Unstructured summertime often leads to drift rather than progress, causing many teens and young adults to fall into inconsistent routines, shift their sleep schedules, spend more time on screens, postpone responsibilities, and reach Labor Day feeling anxious about what comes next.While rest helps students recover from the demands of the school year, rejuvenating activities that are life-giving and momentum-building, such as learning new skills, exploring interests, building relationships, and gaining career exposure, are often what create energy, confidence, and forward progress.What looks like a lack of motivation is often a lack of clarity, as many young people feel overwhelmed by expectations from themselves, their families, and their peers, leaving them unsure where to begin and afraid of making the wrong choice.Confidence is usually the result of action, with self-awareness, intentional exploration, networking, and real-world experiences helping students build clarity, motivation, and direction as they take meaningful steps toward future goals. “Families often are sitting there waiting for that motivation first, but momentum is what will create the motivation.” – Lisa Marker-RobbinsEpisode References:Ready for a different outcome this fall?

What if the biggest challenge facing young adults isn't a lack of opportunity, but a lack of intentional direction early on?In this episode, Lisa Marker-Robbins explores how delayed self-awareness and career exploration can leave capable young adults feeling stuck despite outward success. Using the story of Molly, a 26-year-old HR professional, she illustrates how adult responsibilities gradually shape career decisions and limit flexibility over time.She also shares how intentional exploration, real-world exposure, and confidence-building can help young adults gain clarity earlier and avoid feeling successful on paper but deeply unfulfilled in reality.In this episode, you'll discover:How delayed self-awareness can lead to career dissatisfactionHow do adult responsibilities gradually reduce career flexibilityBuilding confidence through networking and real-world explorationUsing intentional time to create clarity and momentumKey Takeaways: Many young adults feel trapped in careers that no longer fit because they made major decisions in the teen years before fully understanding themselves, making later pivots emotionally and financially difficult.Adult responsibilities like income expectations, location, relationships, routines, work-life balance, and community ties gradually reduce career flexibility and make once-possible paths feel less realistic.Waiting for clarity without intentional action often creates more confusion, while restarting, “paying dues” again, or returning to school can feel much harder once adult responsibilities begin stacking up.Informational interviews, networking, and intentional exploration can help young adults discover better-fitting opportunities while also building confidence, resilience, and professional initiative. “It's not about forcing certainty. It's about helping them understand themselves, explore, and validate within a real systematic framework so that they can gain early traction.” – Lisa Marker-RobbinsEpisode References:#013 The Many Advantages of a Gap Year with Holly Bull: https://flourishcoachingco.com/podcast/13-the-many-advantages-of-a-gap-year/#062 Gap Year: Is it a better freshman start?: https://flourishcoachingco.com/podcast/062-gap-year-is-it-a-better-freshmen-start/Turn confusion into career clarity—and give your teen direction and you peace of mind with Launch Career Clarity®: https://www.flourishcoachingco.com/course/Get Lisa's Free on-demand video: THE CAREER IDENTIFICATION COMPASS: How To Be Certain Your 15 To 25 Year Old is On The Right Path to Launch With Confidence–Not Confusion: flourishcoachingco.com/video Connect with Lisa:Website: https://www.flourishcoachingco.com/YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@flourishcoachingcoFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/flourishcoachingco/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/flourishcoachingco/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/flourish-coaching-co

What if the biggest obstacle to a young adult's independence isn't lack of support, but too much of the wrong kind?In this episode, Lisa Marker-Robbins explores the subtle ways well-meaning parents can unintentionally undermine ownership and agency as their teens and young adults prepare for life after high school or college. She explains why certain parenting habits can leave young adults struggling to confidently make grounded decisions for themselves, while sharing practical ways families can stay involved without taking over through healthier conversations around future planning, real-world exploration, and responsibility-driven confidence building.In this episode, you'll discover:Balancing support and independence during the transition into adulthoodCommon parenting behaviors that affect confidence and decision-makingBuilding ownership and agency through guided responsibilityCreating healthier family dynamics around future planning and career directionKey Takeaways: Over-directing young adults may bring quick decisions and short-term relief, but it limits their sense of ownership, agency, and confidence, often increasing dependence on others.Stepping back too much or avoiding hard conversations also fails to build independence, since young adults still need guidance, accountability, and support; without it, they may feel lost, delayed, or resentful.Outsourcing responsibility entirely can be harmful when parents assume schools, counselors, or others will manage the process, instead of staying engaged as a source of perspective and steady support.A healthier approach balances guidance with responsibility: offering structure and expectations while allowing young adults to act, make mistakes, sit with discomfort, and gradually build the confidence to decide for themselves. “Support is not the problem. The problem is, when support replaces ownership, there should be people in the car, the right people, and when there are, your child should still be the one driving.” – Lisa Marker-RobbinsEpisode References:#226 What Your “On Track” Child Might Be Missing https://flourishcoachingco.com/226Turn confusion into career clarity—and give your teen direction and you peace of mind with Launch Career Clarity®: https://www.flourishcoachingco.com/course/Get Lisa's Free on-demand video: THE CAREER IDENTIFICATION COMPASS: How To Be Certain Your 15 To 25 Year Old is On The Right Path to Launch With Confidence–Not Confusion: flourishcoachingco.com/video Connect with Lisa:Website: https://www.flourishcoachingco.com/YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@flourishcoachingcoFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/flourishcoachingco/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/flourishcoachingco/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/flourish-coaching-co

Von Einem was the quiet, well‑spoken accountant who blended into the background… until the abduction and murder of 15‑year‑old Richard Kelvin shattered that illusion and exposed a far darker reality.

Build Three Distinct Support Communities Before You Need Them Angel's framework for navigating crisis — professional or personal — is built on three tiers: the emotional inner circle (family, closest friends, real-time updates), the logistics home team (practical help, appointments, WhatsApp coordination), and the extended internet community (prayers, encouragement, distant support). Knowing who belongs in each circle saves energy and deepens each relationship. 2. Learning to Receive Is as Important as Learning to Give When you're in crisis, people want to help — sometimes financially, sometimes practically, sometimes emotionally. Angel's experience is that the resistance to accepting generosity is real and deeply wired. Working through that resistance isn't weakness; it's a survival skill. 3. Deep Empathy for Yourself Comes Before Your Resume The most common job search mistake: starting with the resume. Angel's framework starts with a more foundational question — who are you right now, in this exact moment of your life? Your family situation, your financial runway, your emotional state, your real needs. You cannot build a purposeful job search without that honest baseline. 4. Purpose Is Not the Same as Empathy — But You Can't Get There Without It Deep empathy gives you the foundation. Purpose builds on it — it's your current state, your trajectory, your story. It's the answer to "tell me about yourself" that is honest, specific, and actually compelling. Most people skip empathy and land on a purpose that doesn't feel real — because it isn't. 5. Your Old Resume Is Actively Working Against You The resume you built for the Obama administration — or even five years ago — is not your resume today. Angel's advice: start from scratch with a modern platform that parses your actual capabilities, competencies, and skills. Don't update the old document; replace it entirely. 6. LinkedIn Is a Brand, Not a Job Board Most people treat LinkedIn as a passive repository. Angel treats it as a living brand. The formula: 24 words for role, 36 words for quantified impact, a current professional photo, a Canva-designed header, and active storytelling. Dormant profiles don't get found. Active brands do. 7. The Career Prayer Is the Most Powerful Networking Tool Available A LinkedIn post that blends personal humanity (here's where I am in my life right now), professional context (here's what I built and who I built it with), and authentic future direction (here's what I'm looking for) activates dormant networks faster than any cold outreach campaign. If it reads like AI wrote it, it won't work. If it reads like you, it will. 8. Use AI to Identify Who to Reach Out to First Download your full LinkedIn contact list. Feed it into AI along with your resume, LinkedIn profile, and clarity on what you're looking for. Ask it to identify the 20 most relevant people to reach out to — and why. This turns a vague networking intention into a targeted, prioritized outreach list in minutes. 9. The 1-4/14: Plan for 14 Months and 14 Years Simultaneously Angel's framework for living with a terminal diagnosis is a masterclass in holding two truths at once: get your affairs in order (14 months — directives, will, trustees) and commit to building a life and a legacy (14 years — purpose, impact, the people you're fighting for). Both are necessary. Neither cancels the other out. 10. Showing Up Is Its Own Act of Leadership Angel came to Transform 2026 with Stage 4 pancreatic cancer, a 2-3% five-year survival median, and more energy and generosity than almost anyone else in the building. His presence — and his willingness to share his journey publicly — is itself a form of re-inspiration for anyone going through their own version of impossible. CHAPTERS: 00:00 – Day 3 Opens With Angel Adam opens his first interview of day three with Angel Cruzado — a LinkedIn connection turned in-person meeting — and the conversation immediately goes somewhere real. 02:00 – Living With Stage 4 Pancreatic Cancer Angel shares where he is on his cancer journey, what it's like to navigate a conference when you're fighting for your life, and why he showed up anyway. 04:30 – Building Your Community for the Hard Times How a cancer diagnosis forced Angel to build three distinct support communities: the emotional inner circle, the logistics home team, and the extended internet family. 08:00 – Learning to Accept Generosity One of the most vulnerable moments in the series: Angel talks about the resistance to receiving support — financial and otherwise — and how he learned to accept it as part of surviving. 10:30 – Meet Respiros: Career Transitions with Heart Angel introduces his company — an outplacement and career transition services firm that CHROs hire to re-inspire employees through layoffs, treating them as individuals rather than headcount. 13:00 – The Job Market Right Now: Real Talk An honest assessment of the current talent market: companies have their pick, not everyone is an A player, and struggling candidates need something more than a refreshed resume. 15:30 – Step 1: Deep Empathy for Yourself Before you touch your resume, understand where you truly are as a human being. Your baseline context shapes everything that follows. 18:00 – Step 2: Purpose — Who You Are and Where You're Going The second layer: purpose. Not the same as empathy. It's your current state, your trajectory, and the story that actually means something when someone asks "tell me about yourself." 20:30 – Step 3: Build the Right Resume From Scratch Why your 8-year-old resume is working against you and the case for starting completely fresh with a modern platform. 23:00 – Step 4: LinkedIn as a Living Brand How most people are using LinkedIn wrong — and the precise framework Angel uses: 24 words for role, 36 words for quantified impact. 26:00 – The Career Prayer: Storytelling That Activates Dormant Networks Angel's most memorable concept: a LinkedIn post format that blends personal authenticity, professional context, and genuine humanity — and why it generates real job leads in ways job applications never do. 30:00 – The AI Hack for Network Activation Download your full LinkedIn contacts, feed them into AI with your resume and profile, and ask it to identify the 20 people you should reach out to first — and why. 33:00 – How to Reach Out After Years of Silence The right way to re-engage a dormant contact: not a cold ask, but a genuine, story-led post that gives people a reason to respond on their own terms. 36:00 – The 1-4/14: His Framework for Living Plan for 14 months — medical directives, will, trustees — and simultaneously plan to live for 14 years. Both are necessary. Both are acts of hope. 39:00 – His North Star: His 11-Year-Old's High School Graduation The moment that grounds everything: Angel's goal of making it to his son's graduation when the median 5-year survival rate for Stage 4 pancreatic cancer is 2-3%. 41:00 – Re-Inspiring Others Through His Own Transition Angel closes with the mission: if people who are struggling and hurting can see him still showing up, still building, maybe that re-inspires them to do the same.
What if students who seem “on track” are actually headed in the wrong direction?In this solo episode, Lisa Marker-Robbins challenges the traditional focus on grades, college acceptance, and achievement, revealing why these milestones often create a false sense of progress. She explains how families unintentionally prioritize the wrong finish line, leading students to graduate without clarity, confidence, or real-world readiness.Through powerful examples and practical insight, she outlines how early self-awareness, intentional career exploration, and real-world validation can help students build true momentum toward a successful and independent future.In this episode, you'll discover:Why students who appear successful can still feel lost after graduationHow common definitions of success in school can unintentionally mislead familiesThe hidden influence of expectations coming from parents and institutionsWhat it actually takes to build clarity and confidence before choosing a pathKey Takeaways: It is entirely possible for a student to follow the expected path, earn strong grades, and attend a great college, yet still reach graduation without a clear direction because none of those steps required them to truly understand themselves or their future.Many families feel reassured by steady progress through school milestones, but that sense of progress can be misleading when those achievements are not connected to a larger goal like long-term independence and career fit.Students often commit to majors or career paths based on what feels right in the moment, and only later realize the mismatch when they encounter real-world constraints or limitations that force them to reconsider.Clarity comes from doing the deeper work early, including understanding personal strengths and preferences, exploring options with intention, and testing those interests in real environments before making decisions that are harder to reverse later. “If we don't define the finish line early enough, young people will still move forward, but they'll just move forward with something that may not be a fit.” – Lisa Marker-RobbinsEpisode References:Turn confusion into career clarity—and give your teen direction and you peace of mind with Launch Career Clarity®: https://www.flourishcoachingco.com/course/#221 The #1 Predictor of Your Child's Career Success (It's Not What You Think) https://flourishcoachingco.com/221 Get Lisa's Free on-demand video: THE CAREER IDENTIFICATION COMPASS: How To Be Certain Your 15 To 25 Year Old is On The Right Path to Launch With Confidence–Not Confusion: flourishcoachingco.com/video Connect with Lisa:Website: https://www.flourishcoachingco.com/YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@flourishcoachingcoFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/flourishcoachingco/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/flourishcoachingco/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/flourish-coaching-co

The Power Team also stops by to help us deal with some surf (blank) who must die, and we lament the passing of Yoshihisa Kishimoto, creator of Double Dragon, River City Girls, and many more games.0:00:00 - Surf (blank) Must Die0:06:09 - Constant Effusive Praise for Metal Slug0:21:47 - Too Man/Not Enough Beat 'Em Ups0:23:18 - Death of a Dragon (RIP Yoshihisa Kishimoto)0:34:46 - A 10 Year Old's Guide to Gender Politics0:37:25 - Out Run --> Out Runners --> Cool Riders0:45:38 - Truck-kun is Supporting Me From Another World0:47:24 - The Weirdness is Gone0:48:55 - Video Power/Power Team0:51:22 - Wrap Up/Plugs/Thanks Patrons!Zoey on Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/adzuken.bsky.socialJonathan on Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/tronknotts.bsky.socialThe podcast's Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/ttwav.bsky.socialDaniel on Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/douibyorthst.bsky.socialWritten articles at: https://maxutmost.com/Support Zoey's Ko-Fi: https://ko-fi.com/adzuken
Today, Nicole unpacks the exact accounts she opened for her daughter, the math that makes starting early almost unfair, and the money script she's determined to rewrite for the next generation. Whether you have a newborn, a teenager, or you're realizing you wish someone had done this for you, this episode is a blueprint. Nicole breaks down how a 529 plan is far more flexible than most parents realize, why a custodial brokerage account is less about returns and more about teaching kids that money grows quietly in the background, and why a retirement account for a one-year-old is not as insane as it sounds — it's one of the most powerful financial moves a parent can make.

Calming the mind sounds simple, right? And yet most of us would rather do almost anything other than sitting quietly with our thoughts. In this episode, Dr. Aimee Prasek and Dr. Henry Emmons dig into the science of Automatic Negative Thoughts (ANTs), the surprising research on just how much we think, and the powerful practice of the observer self: the part of your mind that can step back, see what's happening, and choose differently. This episode makes the case that our relationship with our own minds might be the most important resilience work we do. Try It Free

What if the real college major deadline isn't when applications are submitted, but when students should be prepared to demonstrate direction?In this solo episode, Lisa Marker-Robbins explains why college-bound students need to be ready to show direction by August 1, when applications open, and majors must be selected. She breaks down why waiting creates pressure, why students end up guessing, and what families should do now to avoid rushed decisions.She then shares practical strategies and a student example, showing how self-awareness, filtering options by fit and strengths, and real-world exploration can help students build confidence and make more informed decisions early.In this episode, you'll discover:Early preparation and timing expectations for college application readinessThe importance of personal clarity in academic and career decisionsHow admissions teams evaluate demonstrated evidence of fitStructural limits within universities that affect major flexibilityKey Takeaways: August 1 is best understood as a readiness milestone rather than a strict deadline, marking when applications open, and students are expected to show evidence-based direction for a chosen major.Admissions increasingly look for alignment between a student's experiences and intended field, so clarity and demonstrated interest matter more than last-minute choices.The idea that majors are easy to switch is often misleading. A 2024 Flourish Coaching study found only 8 percent of state flagship universities allow unrestricted switching of majors, with most imposing limits based on requirements or capacity.A structured approach that begins with self-awareness, narrows options based on fit, and includes real-world testing helps students build confidence and make more intentional decisions before application season. “When you're waiting on time to help it figure itself out, that doesn't remove the decision; waiting just delays it, and as you delay it, you raise the stakes.” – Lisa Marker-RobbinsEpisode References:Turn confusion into career clarity—and give your teen direction and you peace of mind with Launch Career Clarity®: https://www.flourishcoachingco.com/course/Credential Value Index https://credentialvalueindex.org#214 “You Can Be Anything”: Why This Advice Backfires with Your Young Person https://flourishcoachingco.com/214#169 The Hidden Impact of College Major Selection on Admissions with Rick Clark: https://flourishcoachingco.com/169Get Lisa's Free on-demand video: THE CAREER IDENTIFICATION COMPASS: How To Be Certain Your 15 To 25 Year Old is On The Right Path to Launch With Confidence–Not Confusion: flourishcoachingco.com/video Connect with Lisa:Website: https://www.flourishcoachingco.com/YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@flourishcoachingcoFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/flourishcoachingco/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/flourishcoachingco/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/flourish-coaching-co

Elijah Craig 15 Year Bourbon is a brand new offering from Heaven Hill. Some say this whiskey was created to bridge the gap between the flagship Small Batch that we know and love versus some of the ultra-aged stuff like the 18-Year-Old expression. Regardless, this bourbon carries and age statement (15 year) and a proof (108) that seems to be in the wheelhouse of the whiskey enthusiast. But, how does this new offering taste? You'll have to listen to get our take. Jason joins us for this episodes and we get into all kinds of trouble including breaking news and blinds. Should you be chasing this new single barrel offering from Heaven Hill?

What if the moment your child finally feels “clear” is actually the moment they're most at risk of making the wrong decision?In this solo episode, Lisa Marker-Robbins challenges the assumption that clarity means readiness, explaining how early feelings of direction are often mistaken for true certainty. She breaks down why this sense of relief can lead families and students to rush decisions before doing the deeper work required for confidence.Through real coaching stories and a powerful analogy, Lisa reveals how untested clarity can quietly derail long-term outcomes. She ultimately offers a more intentional approach to exploration and validation so young people can make decisions they can trust.In this episode, you'll discover:Emotional signals and how feelings of relief or early progress influence decision-makingExploration processes and the stages involved in discovering career direction over timeValidation methods and why multiple real-world experiences are necessary before committingSocial dynamics, familiar relationships, and broader networks in shaping career perceptionsKey Takeaways: Early clarity often mirrors the relief of making initial progress, as seen with Maggie, and like losing the first 25 pounds in a 100-pound weight-loss journey, it feels encouraging but does not mean the full process is complete.John and Mary both acted on limited early signals by making quick decisions after minimal exposure, showing how even the right actions, like informational interviews or job shadowing, can lead to poor outcomes when not done extensively.Interactions with familiar people, such as Mary speaking with her uncle, can lead individuals to borrow confidence from the relationship itself rather than critically evaluating the actual work, which makes broader and less personal connections more valuable for accurate insight.Pressure and urgency push people into reactive decision-making states, which increases the likelihood of rushing the process, skipping validation steps, and ultimately having to revisit and redo major decisions later on. “Speed, it can feel good in the moment, but it often costs you a lot of clarity later on.” – Lisa Marker-RobbinsEpisode References:Episode #032 Your College List: Financial Fit with Dr. Abigail Sussman https://flourishcoachingco.com/032Get Lisa's Free on-demand video: THE CAREER IDENTIFICATION COMPASS: How To Be Certain Your 15 To 25 Year Old is On The Right Path to Launch With Confidence–Not Confusion: flourishcoachingco.com/video Connect with Lisa:Website: https://www.flourishcoachingco.com/YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@flourishcoachingcoFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/flourishcoachingco/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/flourishcoachingco/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/flourish-coaching-co

Recording late because Joyhdae had an adult play date. That's really the only context you need.This week: a 6-year-old with a grudge and a guest list, Caitlyn Jenner finally feeling the consequences of her own vote, Kev on Stage telling Cam Newton he chooses love — and somehow that was the most controversial thing anyone said all week. Plus Rihanna's baby girl Rocki, Drake vs. Kendrick part two incoming, and Ryan closes with a joke from Kev on Stage's own page.Make it make sense. We tried. We really did.⸻Segment BreakdownAITA: The 6-Year-Old with a Revenge Guest ListEva was not invited to Elle's party. Eva did not forget. It's her party now, and Elle's entire family can stay home.

The conversation is louder.KevOnStage Said “I Choose Love” and Christians Lost the PlotAll the man said was he won't use the Bible as a weapon against LGBTQ+ people. That's it. That's all. Joyhdae and Ryan break down what happened — and why the people coming for him might want to check their own receipts first.Rihanna, Rocki & the Music We're Still Waiting ForBaby girl Rocki has arrived and she is adorable. But is Rihanna coming back to music? Ryan says 2027 at the earliest. Joyhdae has a theory involving Jay-Z, Beyoncé, and strategic sequencing.

His stories warned us about the future. He told us what was coming if we slept, and in our hubris we ignored the warnings and created the world we were afraid of. We were entertained. We thought deeply about the concepts. We found those we wanted to blame then we persecuted them. We often talk about reality here. Is any of this real? Today's little journey into the nature of reality begins in a chair. It is made to be comfortable but it never is. If this is your first time hearing this story about this chair you may be envisioning something sinister, something painful, and your thoughts are moving in the right direction. Your version of this sinister chair might be a bit extravagant. And I assure you it is simple.Because in Philip K Dick's reality it is simply a dentist chair, and a Pink Light. A light that opened his mind to a download of information. But where did it come from, and who sent it? Had he lost his mind, or was it a revelation illuminating a world that had been hidden to him and remains hidden to most of us?We'll see you on the inside..TIME STAMPS:0:00 - That Didn't Take Long2:21 - NEW INTRO (AGAIN)3:21 - Welcome Back6:00 - Should We Rename the Show?8:45 - I Don't Want To Do Time Stamps, So I'ma Just Be Random15:53 - Potty Break Intermission16:45 - Philip K.

In this episode, Lisa and Dr. Tracy discuss:The growing importance of human connection in building confidence, identity, and life directionThe impact of loneliness and social disconnection on younger generationsHow networking and relationships influence career opportunities and successPractical ways to build meaningful connections through conversation, curiosity, and presenceKey Takeaways: Connection is not just social; it plays a central role in building confidence, shaping identity, and helping people figure out their direction, especially at a time when nearly half of people globally report feeling lonely.The opportunities that change your trajectory rarely come from your closest circle, but from weaker, more distant connections who expose you to new information and paths, which is why they so often lead to jobs and new opportunities.You don't need experience, accolades, or “value” to network. Genuine curiosity and the willingness to ask are often enough to open doors, especially since people are naturally wired to help.The fastest way to become memorable in any interaction is to shift focus outward; strong listening and thoughtful questions consistently outperform trying to impress, and make others feel seen.“People really love to help, and sometimes your asking is actually such a gift to them.” – Dr. Tracy BrowerAbout Dr. Tracy Brower: Dr. Tracy Brower is a PhD sociologist studying community, happiness, and the future of work and life. She is a Global 50 Thinker and the award-winning author of three books: Critical Connections, The Secrets to Happiness at Work, and Bring Work to Life.

In this episode of the Grazing Grass Podcast, Cal sits down with Tom Krawiec to explore a practical, numbers-driven approach to grazing management. Tom shares how focusing on the “sweet spot” in grazing can dramatically improve forage production, reduce labor, and increase profitability.We dive into the importance of understanding your numbers, including stock days per acre, and how small management changes can lead to massive results. Tom explains the concept of the tipping point in forage production, where your system becomes self-sustaining, and why many operations fall short of reaching it.The conversation also covers multi-species grazing, reducing workload through better systems, and the critical role of the grazing chart as a planning tool, not just a record. Along the way, Tom challenges common assumptions about rest periods, non-selective grazing, and the realities of modern homesteading.If you're looking to improve your grazing system, simplify your operation, and get better results from your land, this episode is packed with actionable insights.Topics Covered What “grazing in the sweet spot” really means How to calculate and use stock days per acre The tipping point in forage production Why rest periods can be too long, not just too short Multi-species grazing and its impact on soil health Using animals to determine graze periods The power of grazing charts as a planning tool Labor reduction through smarter systems Challenges facing homesteaders and small producers Training livestock to diversify their diet Key Takeaways Small management tweaks can unlock major gains You must respect both graze and rest periods Numbers remove guesswork, “show me the numbers” Grazing charts are essential for consistent results Diversity in livestock can improve soil and forage Profitability starts with understanding your system Resources MentionedRanching Like a 12-Year-Old by Tom Krawiec Holistic Management framework Ranching for Profit principles Dr. Kris Nichols (soil biology) Fred Provenza (animal behavior & nutrition) About the GuestTom Krawiec is a regenerative grazing practitioner and author known for his practical, systems-based approach to ranching.

In this episode, Lisa, John, and Andrew discuss:Apprenticeships are expanding beyond traditional trades into diverse modern industriesBlending education with real-world work through earn-and-learn pathwaysRising demand for soft skills alongside technical knowledgeThe shift toward flexible career paths and lifelong learningKey Takeaways: Apprenticeships now span fields like healthcare, cybersecurity, advanced manufacturing, and AI, allowing individuals to earn while gaining experience and often avoiding student debt.Employers prioritize communication, critical thinking, and professionalism over pre-existing technical expertise.Apprenticeships offer a strong return on investment with lower education costs, higher retention, and greater long-term earnings.Entry into competitive programs depends heavily on attitude, behavior, and interpersonal skills from the first interaction, not just academics.“Apprenticeship….is the very highest ROI that you could possibly find because the level of investment that you're putting in as an individual isn't as high as it would be with a four-year university.” – John Loyack“The power of having job shadowing or work-based experience, just going on site and seeing what a job or career may actually look like, will go a long way.” – Andrew GardnerAbout John Loyack and Andrew Gardner: John Loyack is the Vice President of Economic Development for the North Carolina Community College System, leading ApprenticeshipNC, BioNetwork, Customized Training, and the Small Business Center Network.

Send us Fan MailParents have been raising concerns about social media for years—and now the courts are starting to catch up. In this episode, we're joined by Tori Hirsch, legal counsel at the National Center on Sexual Exploitation (NCOSE), to break down two major court cases involving Meta. We unpack the New Mexico case, where the company was found liable under consumer protection laws, and the California bellwether trial examining social media addiction through product liability. Along the way, Tori explains why these cases matter, why Section 230 didn't block them, and how platform design is becoming a key legal battleground. We also discuss what came out in court about algorithms, infinite scroll, internal warnings, and the gap between parental control tools and what families can actually use. And we address the question parents hear all the time: “Where are the parents?” These cases reinforce what many families already know—parents matter, but they were never meant to carry this alone.

What if the biggest predictor of your child's future success isn't their grades, college, or intelligence, but how well they truly understand themselves?In this solo episode, Lisa Marker-Robbins explores this counterintuitive idea, revealing that deep self-awareness is the foundation for long-term success. She unpacks what self-awareness actually looks like in real life and why so many young people and adults struggle to develop it. Through practical examples and coaching insights, Lisa shows how misalignment between identity and decisions leads to frustration, stagnation, and career dissatisfaction. She ultimately offers a clear path for helping young people build clarity and confidence before making life-shaping choices.In this episode, you'll discover:The role of self-awareness in long-term personal and career successThe disconnect between aspiration and authentic identity in decision-makingCommon external pressures influencing young people's career choicesStrategies for guiding young people toward clarity and aligned decisionsKey Takeaways: Deep self-awareness is identified as the strongest predictor of long-term successSelf-aware individuals make consistently aligned and informed decisions based on how they are actually wired.Many young people mistake interest, curiosity, or fascination for true ability, which leads them toward paths that they cannot sustain due to mismatched cognitive, emotional, or skill-based demands.Without self-awareness, individuals tend to chase what looks impressive or is socially rewarded, which often results in dissatisfaction, career misalignment, and eventually feeling stuck in roles that do not fit them.Developing self-awareness requires honest reflection, guided conversations, and structured tools like the Birkman personality assessment rather than keeping every possible path open without direction. “Aspiration, without the awareness, is going to lead to misalignment.” – Lisa Marker-RobbinsEpisode References:Launch Career Clarity Course https://flourishcoachingco.com/courseSample Birkman Report Available at: flourishcoachingco.com/birkmanGet Lisa's Free on-demand video: THE CAREER IDENTIFICATION COMPASS: How To Be Certain Your 15 To 25 Year Old is On The Right Path to Launch With Confidence–Not Confusion: flourishcoachingco.com/video Connect with Lisa:Website: https://www.flourishcoachingco.com/YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@flourishcoachingcoFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/flourishcoachingco/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/flourishcoachingco/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/flourish-coaching-co

In this episode, Lisa and President Hernandez discuss:Early career integration in college educationEmbedding real employer projects and simulations directly into classroom learningReimagining traditional general education with interdisciplinary, skills-based studio workCombining structured pathways with built-in flexibilityKey Takeaways: Starting in a career-focused major from day one allows students to gain relevant skills immediately, making them competitive for internships as early as their first year and enabling them to graduate with multiple real-world experiences already completed.When students actively perform real tasks in class rather than only learning theory, they build confidence, accountability, and practical skills much faster, which directly impacts how prepared they feel to enter the workforce.Employers are increasingly prioritizing demonstrated, applied skills and real-world experience over GPA alone, reflecting a shift highlighted in the conversation rather than a universal rule across all employers.A flexible curriculum structure with built-in space for co-ops, internships, and exploration allows students to pursue opportunities like full-time work experiences or additional credentials without extending their time in college. “Go out and try something. Don't just read about it. Go out and do it.” – Alex HernandezAbout Alex Hernandez: Alex Hernandez is the tenth president of Champlain College, a private independent college in Burlington, VT, renowned for its innovative approach to getting students Champlain Ready: Ready for work, Ready for life, Ready to make a difference.Prior to Champlain, Alex was the Dean of the School of Continuing and Professional Studies and Vice Provost of Online Learning at the University of Virginia. He was also a leader in K-12 education, working as a teacher, administrator, and partner of a national foundation.He is a fierce advocate for education opportunity, access, and innovation, and lives in Burlington, Vermont, with his wife Michelle and has twin sons in college.Episode References:Learn about Champlain College: https://www.champlain.edu/academics/learning-approach/Get Lisa's Free on-demand video: THE CAREER IDENTIFICATION COMPASS: How To Be Certain Your 15 To 25 Year Old is On The Right Path to Launch With Confidence–Not Confusion: flourishcoachingco.com/video Connect with Alex:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/champlainedu/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/school/champlainedu/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/ChamplainEdu/Connect with Lisa:Website: https://www.flourishcoachingco.com/YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@flourishcoachingcoFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/flourishcoachingco/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/flourishcoachingco/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/flourish-coaching-co

Arsenal are nine points clear and starting to look untouchable. Manchester City dropped points to West Ham and are running out of time to make excuses. While everyone else is playing catch-up, Bruno Fernandes is out here personally dragging Manchester United toward relevance through sheer force of will — and the Sams have opinions about it. Aston Villa? The wheels are wobbling. Newcastle? Quietly, dangerously back in the Champions League conversation. And Oh So this week was a crime against football — a pile of 0-0 draws that somehow still need to be talked about. Then the crew cracks open something worth the wait: Sagamore Rye 10 Year Old, Whisky Advocate's #7 Whisky of 2025.

On this episode: Lucy Lopez and Elizabeth Newcamp are talking bad husbands this week. Not their husbands (though both are terrible gift givers). But it seems like everywhere on the internet lately there are a lot of wives posting about terrible things their husbands did, getting negative reactions, and then getting mad that people are attacking their husbands. The Cut even wrote a piece about it called, “I Love My Husband (Who Hates Me).” Is it all rage-baiting for clicks? And how much harm on both sides does content like this cause? Is it anti-feminist to defend the husbands? Lucy and Elizabeth unpack it all. After that, they answer a listener's question about her seven-year-old trying to dress like a seventeen-year-old. You can also get reactions to the listener's question at the Care and Feeding column by Arionne Nettles: “My 7-Year-Old's Latest Obsession Is Uh, Very Adult. I Definitely Didn't Teach Her That.”This week on the Plus Playground: From glitter water bottles to cards you can find at thrift stores, here's ways to make waiting around fun with kids.Podcast production by Cheyna Roth.
