Go with the FLOW
Welcome to Episode 53 - Go with the FLOW. Join Katie and Chelsea on a deep dive into the state of consciousness known as flow, a concept pioneered by psychologist Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi. Have you ever been so consumed by a project or task that you lost all track of time? You might have been in a state of flow. Chelsea discusses her experiences with flow during coding and composing music, and Katie laments the fact that her career as a classroom educator means she doesn't have as many opportunities to enter a flow state as she might like.

School Sports
Volleyball! Softball! Baseball! Basketball! All of the balls! Join Katie and Chelsea as they discuss the history of modern sports programs in public schools in America. From the late 1800s on, high school rivalries and intercollegiate competitions have motivated students to get and stay fit, but they've also applied an increasing amount of pressure on student athletes. Funding sports programs is another big concern, particularly when athletics often compete with academic programs for limited dollars. Hear Katie's perspective as a former coach and Chelsea's view as a less-than-stellar athlete in this episode of 16:1. Thanks, listeners!
