Lynsey Dyer sat down with snowboarder and filmmaker Leanne Pelosi at the Revelstoke Send It event last January to talk about Leanne’s rocky path to becoming a professional snowboarder, how she learned on the job to produce and direct films during the golden age of female snowboarder filmmaking, and what she thinks about Instagram influencers taking endorsements that used to go to professional athletes.
Are you happy? For many of us, this question is difficult to answer, and often leads to feelings of uncertainty, guilt, and frustration. But for our guest, Phakchok Rinpoche, answering "yes" and truly feeling happy is much simpler than you might imagine. Ordained by the Dalai Lama at a young age and believed to be the latest incarnation in a lineage of spiritual beings, Rinpoche is one of the most respected and well known Buddhist leaders in the world today.
To kick off this new season of the podcast, we talk to Rinpoche and Erric Solomon, the co-author of his book Radically Happy: A User's Guide to the Mind. They discuss techniques for incorporating mindfulness practices into everyday life, why you should be like a lion instead of a dog, and how to avoid comparing yourself with others. With a busy travel schedule and a family of his own, Rinpoche understands the struggle for harmony and happiness in everyday life far more than it may seem from the outside. In this conversation, we go deep into the psychology behind happiness, and learn ways to welcome it into our lives instead of pushing it away.
Are we alone in life? Kathie Chandler says no, we have help guiding us through life. Kathie is a life coach, energy healer and intuitive. We talk about her approach to understand life and her approach to making big choices. She uses her understanding of the world to heal and to coach people through the challenges of life. Kathie dives into what’s going on when we second guess ourselves, and where those doubts are really coming from. We also talk about how to deal with this chaotic modern world we live in and trust me, you probably haven't heard this perspective before.
We talk through her early life including what brought her to competitive skiing. We also talk about her long road to recovery after that day in Tignes, France. While the conversation around athletes and brain trauma has become more visible, however women often get left out.Lynsey and Brett dive into that part of the conversation and Brett talks about what may have been the scariest question of all after her accident. Following months of pain and recovery, what was she going to do next?
Part 2 with Julian Carr.

We talk about his upbringing, how he came to the sport, his approach to skiing in general and how he goes about hitting the huge cliffs he’s known for. Just because a small cliff for him is around 50 feet, that doesn’t mean Julian loves being reckless. In fact, he has a very methodical, considered approach to skiing.
We talk about how that approach comes from parents who let him get bruised up from jumping off neighborhood roofs, and who also instilled in him a love of learning, poetry and the outdoors. It also comes from his own response to a serious injury.
I talk to Julian about how if events went a little differently, he could have become a snowboarder. We talk about his career, why and how he started Discrete and yes, we talk about how he thinks through jumping off big, big cliffs.
