  1. Number 1: Qui est-une Vache?

    Have thoughts or ideas? Please share here! There are a lot of things that I can think of that would be worse than travelling on a plane - but if you want to get out of Dodge and you don't want to take your Dodge, chances are you'll have to fly. In this episode the trials and tribulations AND excellent examples of people who can make or break a trip - and thoughts to consider whether or how we might all end up in either of those camps sometimes. Songs featured in this episode: Mr. Disappointment - Neil Young Can't Get No Satisfaction - Rolling Stones Hey Look Ma I Made It - Panic at the Disco Old MacDonald - the Wiggles Selfish Man - Flagging Molly King of Wishful Thinking - Go West I'll Be Your Mirror - Velvet Underground Try a Little Kindness - Glen Campbell Feverpitch - Hotel Mira Listen wherever you get your podcasts - you can find us on Podcast Addict, Podchaser, Pocket Casts, Deezer, Player FM, Tune-In and of course Spotify, Google Player and Apple Podcasts - where if you can leave a comment or throw me some ideas of topics you'd like to hear about, that would be great.

  2. Number 2: The Antithesis of Fast Fashion

    Have thoughts or ideas? Please share here! Who among us hasn't caved and bought that cute T-shirt while on vacation, or dashed into the store because something caught our eye in the window display? We can probably all remember the "back to school shopping" trip that we did as kids, and may do now with our own kids, but have you ever thought about what happens to those clothes after the shine has worn off, or knees get worn out? Well, you are about to find out the good, the bad and the ugly in the thrifting and textile recycling world from Sarah Janzen of Blenderz Garment Recyclers. Join us for a fascinating conversation about what we can do to help her and her team revolutionize what happens to our textiles when we all start to look at things a little differently.

  3. Number 3: From Sorrow to Elation - the trials and tribulations of Iron Man etc.

    Have thoughts or ideas? Please share here! So before you think I did Iron Man, I need to stop you there. This story started with a conversation I had with a fellow Aryllian who was training for another endurance race and it lead me to have a chat with a friend of mine who did Iron Man - professionally - I didn't even know that was a thing til I met him. So this episode takes an up close and personal look at what it takes mentally and physically to take on this sort of...ahem...challenge and the surprising conclusion that we came to. Hope you are able to listen and appreciate being an armchair athlete for this one:) Listen wherever you get your podcasts - you can find us on Podcast Addict, Podchaser, Pocket Casts, Deezer, Player FM, Tune-In and of course Spotify, Google Player and Apple Podcasts - where if you can leave a comment or throw me some ideas of topics you'd like to hear about, that would be great.

  4. Number 4: When East meets West and Worlds Collide:)

    Have thoughts or ideas? Please share here! Finally a guest! I'm so excited to share this conversation that I had with my friend and former colleague Trina Mansour!!! We talked about beginnings, starting over, parents, the challenges that kids are having and how we can "help" them navigate them and had a blast just chatting about stuff like only 2 kids from the '80's can. Trina has just the most amazing insights and ways of looking at the world that I'm sure you will find her as hilarious and on point as I do. I had my perspectives on a lot of things shifted as a result of this conversation - and that's the whole point! Enjoy:) P.S. I didn't click the "explicit material" button, but she is a little salty - so FYI if there are little ears in the vicinity.

  5. Number 5: All Over the Map

    Have thoughts or ideas? Please share here! All over the map - that's where I feel I am at the moment. Podcast schedule all over the map, focus all over the map, and no real sense of direction. So when we were recently in Jasper looking at all the map markers and contemplating the size of our country and the challenges of getting from point A to point B - well, the episode was born. Reflections on where we are on a map, what they represent in terms of scale and their relative accuracy...plus it's a marker for getting out the next episode which I am super excited about and I need to light a fire under my editing butt by "manifesting it" - wow that looks as corny as it sounds. But here's hoping it works! In the meantime enjoy the ramblings that are...all over the map! If you have comments, as always, I'd love to read them.
