Youāve been collecting data all yearāstudent attendance, classroom lesson frequency, intervention effectiveness, and student storiesā¦ but now what? In this episode, Iām walking you through exactly what to do with all that school counseling data so it actually works for you. Because letās be real, data is only powerful if you know how to use it to show your studentsā progress and advocate for your role as a school counselor.
Youāll hear how to make sense of the data youāve collected all year without getting overwhelmed. Whether youāve set SMART goals, facilitated small groups, or tracked individual student progress, I walk you through how to pull that information together in a meaningful way. Weāll review the three types of data to track and the important role each of them plays. Most importantly, youāll walk away with five different places where you can share out your school counseling data. You didnāt gather all of that information only to not do something with it!

The college search should be an exciting journey, but for many students, itās filled with pressure, competition, and anxiety. Too often, students and parents fixate on prestigious schools without considering whether theyāre truly the right fit, leading to stress and a loss of self-discovery in the process. Todayās guests, Jen and Jared, school counselors and co-founders of Forget the Rankings, are here to change that! Theyāre challenging the traditional, prestige-driven mindset and introducing a values-based approach that helps students find colleges that align with their personal goals, priorities, and well-being!
Jen and Jared have developed a powerful tool that encourages meaningful conversations between students and parents about what truly matters in a college experience. By shifting the focus from rankings to values, theyāre making the application process less overwhelming and more empowering. In this episode, they share how their approach is not only helping students make better college decisions but also improving their mental health and confidence along the way.

Think college searches have to be boring and overwhelming? Think again! In this episode, I sit down with Sam Bernstein, co-founder of the Loper app, to talk about how gamification is shaking up the college search process. We all know that researching colleges can feel like an endless, stressful task for students and for you as counselors trying to guide them. But what if there was a way to make it engaging, intuitive, and even FUN? Thatās exactly what Sam and his team set out to do with Loper, and heās here to share how itās helping students take charge of their college exploration in a whole new way.
Sam breaks down how Loperās game-inspired design hooks students from the start with a swipe-based interface and chat-style onboardingā¦no intimidating college lists or endless research required. Instead of feeling pressured to have everything figured out, students can explore schools in a way that feels natural and exciting. Whether theyāre hyper-focused on college, just starting to think about it, or completely unsure of their next step, Loper meets them where they are.
And hereās what else caught my attentionāLoper isnāt just about four-year colleges. Sam shares how theyāre expanding the app to include two-year programs, trade schools, and other postsecondary paths, giving students a bigger picture of whatās possible. This episode is packed with guidance on how you, as counselors, can use technology to make the college search process more accessible and less overwhelming. After listening, download the app (itās free!) and take a look around. I know youāll enjoy the conversations it sparks with your students!

We talk about a lot of sensitive topics as school counselors, and today is no exception. Weāre taking a deep dive into child sex trafficking. Heavy, I know. But with sex trafficking happening all around us, this just might be the conversation you never knew you needed to hear.

Krystal shares what sex trafficking really looks likeā¦and thereās a good chance itās not what you think! Plus, youāll hear how to spot the red flags among students, what to do if you suspect itās happening, and actions we can take (and teach to others) to help prevent sex trafficking.
Be sure to check the links below for more valuable resources on this topic.
