Podcast appearances and mentions of beth armstrong

This week on Talking Apes, we're entering the personal world of gorillas and a remarkable woman who has dedicated her life to their stories: Beth Armstrong. As a former gorilla keeper at the Columbus Zoo, Beth's career spans from revolutionizing gorilla care in zoos to advocating for conservation in the wild. She brings decades of experience, wisdom, and unapologetic passion for these gentle giants.Beth's stories from the field are as vivid as they are moving. She describes the transformation of gorilla enclosures from barren cages to enriched spaces that reflect the dignity these animals deserve, built on the simple principle of listening to what the gorillas were telling her. Her work didn't stop at the zoo gates—Beth's commitment to field conservation and questioning the role zoos play in the bigger picture of species survival has reshaped how we view these institutions today.In this episode, Beth also shares poignant reflections on humanity's connection to gorillas, the injustices they've faced, and how each of us can play a part in their story. From heartwarming tales of gorilla mothers to the challenges of fostering community-driven conservation, Beth's insights remind us that conservation is, at its core, about relationships—between people, animals, and ecosystems.‘Conservation is nothing but personal—it's about relationships and community.'Tune in to hear Beth's unforgettable journey, her advice for anyone passionate about making a difference, and why telling these stories matters more than ever.

Send us a Text Message.We all have a different understanding of our sexuality. Depending on our circumstances and upbringing, many of us are left to discover it on our own. If there's any education, sex is generally taught as something precious and private between two people in a relationship, with an emphasis on baby-making, not pleasure. Touch and sexual expression are a fundamental part of our humanity, a powerful way to connect with others and ourselves, experience pleasure and express desire. Sex as a commodity, as a means of making a living - an ancient art - is rarely encouraged by career counsellors; so, what leads one to become a sex worker, what's it like and how does it impact you? Guided by host Beth Armstrong, the guests share their stories of how they came to sex work, their experiences and revelations. Three women of different generations, one in their thirties, seventies and eighties, share their intimate stories and life lessons. It's a revolutionary and revelationary discussion, including advice for those considering the profession.Please note: * Content warning for discussion of sexual assault, rape, suicide and child abuse that some viewers may find distressing—intended for an adult audience.

In this Friday Conversation, we were joined by Beth Armstrong, Managing Director at Marcella Club & Ryan Kartchner with Capital Reef Partners. In this conversation, Beth and Ryan share their fascinating journey to Marcella, highlighting the resort's unique blend of golf and skiing experiences. They discuss exclusive offerings such as the Golf Course Home Sites and the success of Park City Club Memberships, which are nearly sold out. Beth begins the conversation by discussing her career in hospital administration before moving to Utah for her son's ski racing. Ryan grew up in Utah and worked in golf club management, at Promontory and Hidden Valley Country Club. He started consulting for Reef Capital while at Promontory which is where Beth and Ryan met.  Ryan discusses how he pitched the idea for a high elite, over the top club, that was a little more on the exclusive side making it more appealing for people to join. With options to live on the ski hill or on the golf course, Marcella will be an attractive option because of its year-round options. Beth & Ryan discuss that Marcella will have 150 ski lots and 350 lots with golf memberships and the course will be over 7,500 feet with holes over 700 yards and 300 yard par 3s. Ryan shares insider knowledge from working with Tiger Woods in designing the course. Ryan says he has also worked with Jack Nicklaus and Tom Weiskopf. He finds it interesting to see how each designer has a different approach. Ryan says his initial meeting with Tiger to discuss the property got Tiger very excited about the possibilities at Marcella. Tune in to hear from these great entrepreneurs.

In this installment of the Vet Tech Cafe, we interview Beth Armstrong, CVT, RVT, CFE, CCFP, CTP, who is now a Practice Consultant for AAHA.  Our paths first crossed with Beth in 2013 when we were all in the same study group for the AVECCTN exam (best study group of all time, IMO).  It was great to catch up and hear what she's been doing, as her career has taken a very different path from ours since that time.  As May is #mentalhealthawarenessmonth we continue our discussions with those that are helping to decrease the stigma that surrounds the issue.  We'd also like to wish Beth a happy birthday, as this episode is being released on her birthday-so make sure to say Happy Birthday in the comments and show her some support by downloading her episode!  Lastly, we want to thank AAHA for their generous support of this episode-when they heard Beth was going to be coming by the Vet Tech Cafe for a cup of coffee, they stepped up to sponsor this episode so you'll hear a roughly 20-second ad near the middle.  We'll be talking about AAHA's culture initiative as well, which aims to promote a healthy workplace culture in their hospitals.   https://www.aaha.org/practice-resources/healthy-workplace-culture/ https://www.aaha.org/aaha-guidelines/2020-aaha-anesthesia-and-monitoring-guidelines-for-dogs-and-cats/anesthesia-and-monitoring-home/ https://www.calm.com/?url=https://www.calm.com/&pid=google&af_channel=g&af_c_id=1603556317&af_adset_id=61837906998&af_ad_id=378906119400&af_sub_siteid=&af_keyword=calm%20app&af_sub3=e&af_sub4=Cj0KCQjws_r0BRCwARIsAMxfDRjMYNnWt_M0uqVzQ_Tu_L7o2cwxJSjMW95PW6SvbyFOgnvc4tFtItMaAmX6EALw_wcB&af_sub5=&utm_medium=paid&utm_source=google&utm_campaign=1603556317+61837906998+378906119400&utm_content=homepage&utm_term=calm%20app&gclid=Cj0KCQjws_r0BRCwARIsAMxfDRjMYNnWt_M0uqVzQ_Tu_L7o2cwxJSjMW95PW6SvbyFOgnvc4tFtItMaAmX6EALw_wcB https://science.howstuffworks.com/science-vs-myth/extrasensory-perceptions/hypnosis.htm https://www.headspace.com/meditation-101/what-is-meditation

Beth Armstrong - Voices from the Ape House...with TRE's Selina Mackenzie

"The doctors came in and said “He’s sicker today than he was yesterday. At some point today we need to turn off life support."  I needed to call my friends and family and let them know that this was the last day he would live." Throughout 394 days of hospitalization, fighting impossible odds and spending many days at death's door, Beth Armstrong tells the story of how her faith and trust in God grew through the storm of her husband's health tragedy turned testimony. In today's chat, we talk about Beth's journey, trusting God through the unknown, the little things, what to do if you need a miracle and not just walking through a storm but bearing fruit from it.   "God can use all of it, whether it’s a small inconvenience or a huge hurricane sized storm that you didn’t see coming. He can use it, even though it doesn’t feel good, for your good." Some other topics we touched on were:  -total surrender leads to transformation -perspective shifts -Chris on life support -facing 90% odds of mortality -peace beyond understanding -trusting God -what to do if you need a miracle -why God cares about big needs AND small needs -learning something from your difficulty and bearing fruit in the storm -why roots grow in the dark places -message on Beth's heart -whom we should interview next   Follow Beth's journey at RootedLeaders.org or on FB at Beth Armour Armstrong   Resources mentioned in this episode:  Link for $5 off Flourish Health Summit    "Rooted in the Storm: A 61-day Devotional of Faith" by Beth Armstrong "Growing Roots for a Mission Driven Life: My Life as a Mustard Seed (Vol 1)" by Beth Armstrong "Growing Roots for a Mission Driven Life: Planted in Good Soil (Vol 2)" by Beth Armstrong
