Is AI Coming for the "First Job"? We often talk about AI replacing corporate roles, but what about the 5.66 million teens currently working in America? Our guest is here to show us that the "first job" landscape is shifting beneath our feet.

Meet Our NextGen, Karissa Tang.

Karissa is a researcher tackling one of the most pressing questions for the next generation: How will AI impact teenage employment? Her findings are a wake-up call, predicting a 27% decline in teen employment by 2030.

Karissa’s work doesn't just provide the "doom and gloom" numbers; she identifies exactly which job segments are at high risk and, more importantly, where the new opportunities are emerging.

Karissa’s influence is already reaching the highest levels of national discourse. Recently, Forbes spotlighted her research, highlighting her as a critical voice on the intersection of AI and the future of work.

Student-athletes are often asked to excel in the classroom and in competition—without being taught how to balance the two. In this podcast, Dr. Keith Adams draws on nearly 30 years of experience as an educator, coach, researcher, and nonprofit leader to examine the intersection of academic and athletic motivation. Grounded in research and real-world practice, this podcast explores practical, scalable strategies schools and athletic programs can use to improve academic performance, eligibility, and long-term outcomes for student-athletes. Participants will leave with actionable tools that move beyond compliance and toward intentional academic support.
