Podcasts about Club Med

My guest today spent over a decade with Club Med, working from 1985 to 1996. He began his journey in Turks and Caicos as Assistant Food and Beverage Manager and quickly rose through the ranks to become Food and Beverage Manager. His career took him around the globe, with assignments in Brazil, Switzerland, Mexico, Haiti, and even aboard the Club Med 2 cruise ship. Originally from Bangor, Maine, and now calling California home, please join me in welcoming the seasoned world traveler and hospitality expert, Stuart Emery! Stuart takes us through the trials and triumphs of his very first season at Club Med, including the unique reason that inspired him to apply. After his time in the villages, Stuart spent five years as a Club Med recruiter—and he shares a memorable story from that chapter, too. We also catch up on what Stuart's been up to lately and reflect on the things he misses most about his former role. Enjoy this delightful conversation with Stuart! **My First Season podcast has always been ad-free and free to listen to and is available to download on: Apple Podcasts, Google Podcasts, Samsung Podcasts, Podbean App, Podchaser, Spotify, Amazon Music/Audible, TuneIn + Alexa, iHeartRadio, PlayerFM, Pandora, and Listen Notes.

My guest today had an incredible run with Club Med, working on and off from 1982 to 2009. He kicked off his first season as a Bar G.O. at Club Med Paradise Island—and beyond bartending, he also lent his talents to waterskiing, circus, and picnics. I had the pleasure of meeting him during my very first season, and he's here today to clear up a funny bit of confusion I had about him back then! A Florida State University alum with a business background, he even had the chance to hang out with David Lee Roth back in the day. Please welcome the one and only, Tony Love! Tony shares how he first discovered Club Med through a model friend who regularly did photo shoots at the resorts—and from there, takes us on a journey through his many unforgettable seasons. Tony recounts what it was like rubbing elbows with David Lee Roth of Van Halen at Club Med Paradise Island in 1982, as well as the fierce Olympic Day rivalries with a future Chief of Village at St. Lucia in 1992. Tony also reveals the origin story of the iconic “Super G.O.” t-shirt that he created and talks about the unofficial "Youth Hostel" he ran out of his place in Miami, offering a crash pad for any G.O. passing through town. Tony is a master storyteller, so you're in for a real treat.

Vingt-trois ans plus tard, elle est revenue au Club Med, cette fois en tant que responsable des excursions à Columbus Isle en 2017. Sa toute première saison s'est déroulée au Club Med de Sainte-Lucie, où elle a vécu l'expérience inoubliable d'habiller nul autre que le légendaire guitariste de Queen, Sir Brian May, pour le spectacle G.M., sans même savoir qui il était à l'époque ! Elle a étudié la scénographie, la conception de costumes et l'éclairage au Collège Lionel-Groulx, et c'est une simple annonce dans un journal avec un numéro 1-800 qui l'a mise sur cette voie incroyable. Originaire de Joliette, au Québec, nous vous invitons à accueillir chaleureusement Izzy Chartier! Dans cet épisode, nous nous plongeons dans tous les détails du parcours d'Izzy au Club Med - de ses saisons mémorables à ses rencontres avec des célébrités, en passant par la transition de l'animation aux excursions après une pause de vingt-trois ans. Elle nous fait également part de ce qui lui manque le plus au Club Med. Tout cela et bien d'autres choses encore vous attendent - il vous suffit d'appuyer sur le bouton « play »!

My guest today has a fascinating Club Med journey that spans decades. She first joined the company in 1992 as a Costume Designer and worked until 1994. Then, twenty-three years later, she returned to Club Med—this time as an Excursions G.O. at Columbus Isle in 2017. Her very first season was at Club Med St. Lucia, where she had the unforgettable experience of dressing none other than Queen's legendary guitarist, Sir Brian May—for the G.M. show—without even realizing who he was at the time! She studied set design, costume design, and lighting in college, and it was a simple newspaper ad with a 1-800 number that set her on this incredible path. Hailing from Joliette, Quebec, please give a warm welcome to Izzy Chartier! In this episode, we dive into all the details of Izzy's Club Med journey—from her memorable seasons and brushes with celebrities to what it was like transitioning from Animation to Excursions after a twenty-three-year break.

My guest today began her Club Med journey as a Reception G.O. and later served as Chief of Horseback. Her first season was at Club Med Sandpiper in 1997. Originally from Walnut Creek, California, she grew up near an equestrian center, which sparked her passion for horses. She went on to play polo at UC Santa Barbara while studying Communications and also showcased her vocal talents by singing in the All-State Honor Choir. Her path to Club Med was first set in motion during a family vacation to Club Med Playa Blanca when she was a teenager. Now living in Florida, please join me in welcoming the talented and dynamic Kelly Hammett! We kick off the interview by exploring Kelly's fascinating life before Club Med, then dive deep into the stories and experiences from her two unforgettable seasons. Kelly shares heartfelt memories of the friendships she built, the moments she cherishes most, and the aspects of Club Med she still misses today. As a teenager visiting Club Med Playa Blanca, Kelly dreamed of becoming Chief of Horseback there—and in 1997, she made that dream a reality.

My guest today is a true Club Med veteran, having worked from 1992 to 1995. He started his adventure at Club Med St. Lucia, juggling roles as a Polyvalent Bartender, Landsports G.O., Tennis G.O., and Golf G.O.—basically, if it involved fun, he was your guy. Fun fact: we apparently met during my very first season… and yet, neither of us remembers it. So clearly, it was very memorable! He once described his most romantic moment at Club Med as a quiet evening—alone—on the beach. Yep, just him, the stars and the waves. We'll definitely be unpacking that story and plenty more! So grab your sunblock and your sense of humor—joining us from sunny Arizona, it's Ace! Ace's Club Med adventure took him to incredible locations including Huatulco, Turks and Caicos, Martinique, and Cancun—and he shares some unforgettable stories from each of those seasons. Ace also catches us up on life after Club Med, giving us a glimpse into what he's been up to since moving on. Plus, we dive into a fun round of "Rapid Fire with Ace," where he reveals the three things he misses most about his time with Club Med.

Aujourd'hui, Bruno Poncet, Barbara Lefebvre et Didier Giraud débattent de l'actualité autour d'Alain Marschall et Olivier Truchot.

In this episode, we sit down with Jonah Kest, yoga teacher, traveler, and legacy disruptor, for a deep, hilarious, and refreshingly honest conversation. We dive into everything from growing up in a yoga family to carving his own path, his recent Club Med partnership, the importance of authenticity and language, and why he's not trying to be the teacher for everyone. Jonah shares how society these days feels a little clenched, learns about poppers (yep), and lets Bradshaw take him on some wild tangents. We trade mid-class stories, including one where a student straight-up cursed him out, unpack AI and buzzwords in the wellness world, and dig into his powerful advice for new teachers. Whether you're just starting out or you've been on the mat for years, this one is packed with humor, inspiration, and unapologetic realness.Find Jonah Kest's official social media profiles:Instagram: @kestyogaTikTok: @jonahkestYouTube: @jonahkestyogaTwitter (X): @kestyoga Web: jonahkestyoga.comUPCOMING RETREAT:Starved Rock Yoga Retreat (JULY): https://www.cayayogaschool.com/starvedrockITALY Yoga Retreat (AUGUST): https://www.cayayogaschool.com/italyYoga Teachers Retreat: Costa Dulce, Nicaragua (MARCH 2026): https://cayayogaschool.com/pages/teachers-retreatBE PART OF OUR FUNNY FAM: https://www.cayayogaschool.com/communityPODCAST SUBSTACK: https://thefunnythingaboutyoga.substack.com/FOLLOW US:@thefunnythingaboutyoga @cayayogaschool @gianagambino @bradshawwishLINKS:https://www.cayayogaschool.com/https://www.gianayoga.com/ Hosted on Acast.

Send us a textAward-winning travel journalist Lisa Niver takes us behind the scenes of her remarkable career spanning all seven continents and more than 100 countries. With warmth and candor, she reveals how a former teacher and medical school student transformed personal hardship into a life of extraordinary adventure.Lisa's journey resembles a game of "Shoots and Ladders" – unpredictable, challenging and ultimately rewarding. She shares how working at Club Med and on cruise ships opened doors to global exploration when she couldn't afford exotic trips on a teacher's salary. These experiences laid the foundation for her website We Said Go Travel, which she launched in 2010 while traveling through Asia with her then-husband.The conversation takes an emotional turn as Lisa discusses her memoir "Brave-ish: One Breakup, Six Continents and Feeling Fearless After 50." Written partly in her therapist's office, this award-winning book chronicles how travel became her path to healing and reinvention following divorce. Her vulnerability in sharing both triumphant adventures and painful struggles resonates deeply with readers seeking their own fresh start.Among Lisa's most thrilling experiences? Hula-hooping at the southernmost post office in Antarctica, completing a polar plunge in both polar regions within six months, mountain biking despite childhood trauma and paddleboarding in Antarctic waters. These adventures aren't just personal victories – they're content for her prolific output across National Geographic, Reader's Digest, television segments, podcasts and social media channels with over two million YouTube views.For media professionals, Lisa offers invaluable insights on building genuine relationships with PR teams based on mutual support rather than transactions. Her approach to content creation is equally refreshing: start small, stay consistent and remember that even the most daunting goals can be achieved "one bite at a time." Lisa's journey proves it's never too late to reinvent yourself through courage, persistence and a passport.

Être le roi de la plus belle plage au monde.C'est le rôle que tient depuis plus de 30 ans Christophe Coutal, patron de Moorea Plage près de Saint-Tropez et maire adjoint de la ville.Un personnage haut en couleur, profondément attaché à sa terre, à ses clients et à une certaine idée de l'hospitalité.Son secret ? Il incarne son lieu. Il passe entre les tables, il fait le show et parle à tout le monde. Ici, personne ne vient juste déjeuner : on se sent chez soi, donc on revient.Plutôt que de céder à la mode du bling et des pourboires à cinq chiffres, Christophe a misé sur la fidélité. Il refuse les coups d'éclat, les clients éphémères et les prix délirants.“Je suis le plus mauvais plagiste de Pampelonne… Mais je serai encore là quand les autres seront partis.”Chaque été, Moorea affiche complet. Le restaurant sert des centaines de couverts par jour et génère près de 8 millions d'euros en une saison.Dans cet épisode, il nous raconte les coulisses de ce business si particulier : les règles du jeu quand on gère un établissement saisonnier, comment bien recruter, l'exigence du service — et tous ces détails qu'on ne voit pas toujours depuis son transat.Un régal !

[EP 25-152] Think about all the ways the Left has tried to screw America—and somehow convince us we liked it. They told us the education system was about learning. Turns out, it's about learning to hate yourself if you're white, hate your country if you're Black, and hate your parents if they're not waving a rainbow flag while eating bugs and praising Karl Marx. Your kid can't balance a checkbook, but he can tell you which pronouns his hamster prefers. Meanwhile, test scores have plummeted harder than Biden on a staircase.Nation's Report Card shows historic learning lossWelfare? More like WelfRARE. You work 40 hours, and they give your benefits to someone who just arrived illegally and needs a translator to ask where the EBT office is.Joe Biden wants to literally hand out green cards like party favors at the border.Biden admin to give migrants pathway to citizenship The result? Americans living in tents under bridges while illegals get free hotel rooms, room service, and prepaid debit cards.

In October 1989, Janet Jackson's "Miss You Much" topped the charts, and the film "Look Who's Talking" was a box office hit.

Il y a entre 5 et 15 millions de coureurs réguliers en France.Avec ses 38 000 abonnés sur Strava, temple du running, Nicolas Spiess est sûrement l'un des plus connus. Mais il ne l'est pas devenu en gagnant des médailles, ni en pulvérisant des records — même s'il affiche un solide 2h33 au marathon.Son truc, c'est de comprendre. De partager. De transmettre.Ingénieur de formation, il se passionne pour la course à pied à 20 ans. Comme beaucoup, il commence par courir sans trop savoir comment s'y prendre mais très vite sa curiosité le pousse à creuser, à tester, à analyser tout ce qu'il peut.En 2013, il lance "Running Addict", un blog sur lequel il publie des contenus pédagogiques qui attirent très vite une large communauté.Mais en parallèle, grandit une frustration : ”les gens adoraient mes conseils, mais à la fin la question c'était toujours — comment je m'entraîne, concrètement de A à Z ?”En 2020, il quitte donc son poste d'ingénieur pour lancer son app Campus Coach et proposer la solution dont il rêvait quand il a démarré le running.Grâce à leur IA, ils sont aujourd'hui capables de proposer des programmes d'entraînement personnalisés basés sur les données de chaque coureur. Un plan sur-mesure sans coach hors de prix ni diplôme en physiologie.En quelques années, l'app cartonne : des dizaines de milliers d'utilisateurs, une équipe de 50 personnes, une croissance stable et autofinancée, des ambassadeurs de renom comme Matthieu Blanchard — et une mission simple : aider chacun à progresser durablement, sans se blesser.En parallèle, la communauté de Nicolas continue de grandir pour atteindre 500k abonnés au total, faisant de lui l'un des influenceurs running les plus suivis en France.Dans cet épisode, il explique :Pourquoi l'immense majorité des coureurs s'entraînent malLes erreurs classiques à éviter quand on se lance dans la course à piedLe modèle économique derrière Campus Coach et sa stratégie de croissanceComment faire pour toucher les 5 millions de coureurs réguliers en FranceSon rapport au temps, à l'effort et à la disciplineCet épisode est à la fois une vraie masterclass de running — pour mieux comprendre, mieux s'entraîner — et un tour d'horizon passionnant du business de la course.Vous pouvez suivre Nicolas sur Strava et aussi le contacter sur Linkedin et Instagram.Testez Campus avec le code “DOIT” qui vous offrira 2 mois gratuits.

On a toutes et tous grandi avec un rapport au corps différent et aujourd'hui j'avais envie que vous puissiez entendre le témoignage puissant d'Alison Cavaillé qui après des années à lutter contre son corps, a découvert le chemin de la force, a découvert le chemin de la puissance de son corps.J'ai rencontré Alison il y a bientôt 6 ans, alors que sa marque TajineBanane commençait à se faire un nom.Je l'ai vu évoluer, gérer 3 enfants dont un tout petit, un allaitement long, une boite en pleine expansion, j'ai vu son stress et les premiers signes sur son corps.La prise de poids d'abord, au fil des ans, qui est venue masquer sa sédentarité et les difficultés. Et puis j'ai assisté à sa renaissance. A ses multiples déclics.J'ai vu cette femme incroyable reprendre le pouvoir et tomber d'amour pour le sport.Cet épisode est émouvant, drôle, intense, inspirant… bref il est à l'image d'Alison et j'espère qu'il vous aidera à vous lancer si vous hésitez.Nous avons enregistré au Club Med de Serre Chevalier lors du Podcast Club, pendant un moment privilégié, axé autour du sport justement !

Un panier moyen à 550 euros. Le double dans certaines boutiques… Telle est la récompense de l'audace à la française.Depuis toujours, Lisa est passionnée de lingerie. Sa mère, déjà, accordait une grande importance aux pièces qu'elle portait. Très jeune, elle commence à dessiner et concevoir des modèles originaux, avec sa patte bien à elle : très française, très sexy.Dior, Kenzo, John Galliano… Elle débute auprès des plus grandes Maisons avant de rejoindre Etam pour participer au lancement d'Undiz en tant que directrice artistique.Lisa y découvre les secrets d'un lancement réussi dès 2007, à une époque où les réseaux sociaux n'existaient même pas encore.Elle casse les codes, crée un produit parfaitement positionné, simple, pensé notamment pour les ados — et parvient à vendre sans la moindre photo.“Sur une marque de teenage, c'était important pour nous de pouvoir dédramatiser ce côté sexy. Je me suis bien rattrapée sur Livy après.”En 2017, Livy voit le jour. Lisa réussit à convaincre son ancien employeur de l'accompagner financièrement, et réunit d'autres investisseurs pour lancer le projet. Alliant savoir-faire français et modernité, sa marque séduit rapidement une clientèle haut de gamme, grâce à une implantation stratégique des boutiques.Aujourd'hui, Livy c'est : 120 collaboratrices, 120 000 pièces produites par an, et une trentaine de points de vente, dont 18 en France.Dans cet épisode, elle nous dévoile les dessous d'une stratégie bien rodée, fondée sur l'authenticité et la rencontre avec le client.Une véritable masterclass du secteur du luxe, menée par une personnalité aussi inspirante que déterminée.Utilisez le code “DOIT” sur li-vy.com pour bénéficier (peut-être) d'une surprise…TIMELINE:00:00:00 : Ce que la lingerie représente : historiquement, socialement et personnellement00:12:38 : 1 cliente sur 3 a la poitrine refaite : comment la lingerie évolue00:16:49 : L'évolution des designs sur les 30 dernières années00:21:47 : La différence du luxe : processus de création et fabrication00:29:04 : Undiz : comment devenir leader en cassant les codes00:43:45 : Les secrets pour un lancement réussi, le cas Livy00:56:02 : Comment se développer vite à l'international01:03:21 : Transformer ses boutiques en aimants à clients : combiner les stratégies digitales et “in vivo”01:13:04 : Concurrence, shadow-ban et nudité01:20:12 : Définir la limite entre le sexy et le vulgaire01:27:43 : Comment Livy a su être agile tout en restant authentique01:42:48 : Avoir l'esprit sportif sans l'êtreLes anciens épisodes de GDIY mentionnés : #104 Clara Blocman - Ysé - Révolutionner le monde de la lingerie avec Instagram#423 - Guillaume Gibault - Le Slip français - Des slips de bobo à la grande conso, la croisade du Made in France#352 - Juliette Lévy - Oh My Cream ! - Se mesurer aux géants de la beauté, casser les codes des DNVB, et tout rafler#452 - Reid Hoffman - LinkedIn, Paypal - L'humanité 2.0 : Homo technicus plus qu'Homo sapiens#266 - Frédéric Plais - Platform.sh – Lever 140 millions avec 100% de télétravail#261 - Caroline Vigneaux - Humoriste et réalisatrice - Changer de vie : passer de la plaidoirie au stand-upNous avons parlé de :LIVYLes boutiques LivyUndizEtamL'Agence - l'épisode avec LisaJohn Galliano (styliste chez Dior)Antonio Marras (styliste chez Kenzo)KOL : key opinion leaders (personnes influentes)Laurent MilchiorGloballyVidéo promo pour la boutique à CourchevelBackflip : vidéo promo pour la boutique à CourchevelSkims (comparaison entre des hommes et les femmes)Les recommandations de lecture : Colette (recueil : La Maison de Claudine - La Naissance du jour - Sido)Vous pouvez contacter Lisa sur Linkedin ou Instagram.Un immense merci à Géraldine et Anne et toute la team Club Med pour cet enregistrement hors du temps en haut des montagnes.Vous souhaitez sponsoriser Génération Do It Yourself ou nous proposer un partenariat ?Contactez mon label Orso Media via ce formulaire.Distribué par Audiomeans.

What happens when you put Jim Carrey, Alan Thicke, and a Club Med in a blender? You get the bizarre cocktail that is the 1983 movie, "Copper Mountain." This episode of "Carrey'd Away" dives headfirst into this comedy goldmine, unearthing the nuances of Carrey's early comedic style and the controversial themes that permeated the film. We dish on everything from Alan Thicke's questionable character to Jim Carrey's knack for impressions, delivering an analysis as unforgettable as the film itself.  Ever wondered why Jack Nicholson's deep receding hairline is seen as sexually powerful? Or why the character Yogi Haberdaddy only appears for a brief moment in the movie, despite his unforgettable name? Join us as we answer these questions and more, dissecting the underbelly of '80s comedy and what made "Copper Mountain" a pivotal point in Carrey's career. We even take a nostalgic detour to Matt Stone and Trey Parker's college project "Cannibal the Musical," finding surprising connections to our feature film. Learn more about your ad choices.

My guest today has truly lived an extraordinary life. He began his journey with Club Med in 1989, working until 1992, before taking a 22-year hiatus and returning in 2014 for another two memorable years until 2016. His first season was at Club Med Sandpiper, where he started as a Bar G.O. Over the years, he wore many hats, including Excursions, Traffic, Choreographer, and Entertainment Manager, showcasing his versatility and creativity. A standout moment in 1990 happened when he met Serge Trigano, who remarked that he was the only Panamanian G.O. he had ever met—a testament to his unique place in the Club Med family. A graduate of Valley Forge Military Academy and the University of Tampa, where he earned a BS in Marketing, my guest hails from Panama but now calls Germany home. Please join me in warmly welcoming the one and only, Aldo Mata! Aldo has led an extraordinary life, and this episode highlights his unique journey to Club Med, the variety of roles he held during his time there, and his firsthand account of what it was like to be a Traffic G.O. at Club Med Paradise Island in 1992 during Hurricane Andrew—a devastating Category 5 storm.
