Jeannette is joined by Don Welsh, the CEO and President of Destinations International. They explore the evolution of the travel and tourism industry, discussing how Destinations International has expanded from a U.S.-centric organisation to serving over 760 destination organisations in 31 countries. Don shares insights into the challenges of cultural diversity in global business, the importance of collaboration within the tourism ecosystem, and the pressing issues of over-tourism and sustainability. He also reflects on his own career journey, emphasising the value of authenticity, the importance of aligning personal values with professional opportunities, and the necessity of embracing failure as a part of growth. KEY TAKEAWAYS The transition from a U.S.-centric organisation to one that operates in over 31 countries highlights the importance of understanding and adapting to diverse cultural needs and business practices. Building strong relationships within the industry is crucial. Collaborating with other organisations, such as the World Travel and Tourism Council, enhances the ability to address common challenges and share best practices. The need for alignment between destination organisations, local communities, and political leaders is essential for sustainable tourism. Engaging stakeholders in discussions about responsible tourism can help mitigate issues like over-tourism. The journey through various roles in the travel and hospitality industry emphasises the importance of being open to learning and adapting to new challenges, which can lead to personal and professional growth. BEST MOMENTS "The complexity of these jobs have never been greater... how you're going to convene a group of people to deal with maybe over tourism or responsible or sustainable tourism." "I think when you work with different cultures, you have a much higher sense of emotional intelligence because if you want to succeed in different parts of the world, you cannot go in and expect to do business in the way that we do in the U.S." "We believe in the point of collaboration... at the end of the day, our focus is 100% on how the destination can do the best in serving, whether it's a leisure guest, a meeting attendee, or whatever it may be." "It's OK to question yourself. It's OK to say, how did I come across in that meeting? How did I deal with a colleague?" "Let's not reinvent the wheel. Let's learn from each other and grow together." This is the perfect time to get focused on what YOU want to really achieve in your business, career, and life. It’s never too late to be BRAVE and BOLD and unlock your inner BRILLIANT.

Host Jenny engages with Lia Haberman, a creator economy expert, to unpack the role of influencer marketing in higher education. Fresh off a visit to the White House, Lia shares insights into the evolution of the creator economy, how influencers shape audience engagement, and actionable strategies for integrating influencer marketing into university communications.Key TakeawaysInfluencer Marketing vs. Creator Economy: Understand the difference between influencers promoting brands and the larger ecosystem enabling creators to thrive.Why Higher Ed Needs Influencers: Institutions can leverage influencers, including students, alumni, and faculty, to amplify messages authentically.Building Relationships with Influencers: Collaborate with influencers through budget-friendly approaches like campus events, content partnerships, or passion-driven projects.Start Small and Local: Many influencers with niche audiences, such as professors or student athletes, can create meaningful connections without hefty price tags.Stay Current: Keeping up with newsletters, books, and conferences helps higher ed marketers navigate the rapidly evolving influencer landscape.What Is Influencer Marketing?Lia Haberman defines influencer marketing as a brand's collaboration with influencers to promote its products or services to their audiences. She explains that this is a subset of the broader creator economy, which encompasses the platforms, tools, and businesses supporting influencers. While influencer marketing has evolved from simply posting product ads, its role remains vital in creating relatable and impactful connections.For higher ed, influencer marketing means leveraging students, alumni, and faculty to act as relatable amplifiers for the institution's messaging. Haberman notes that while traditional marketing can feel impersonal, influencers offer a genuine voice, fostering trust and engagement.Why Higher Ed Should Embrace InfluencersHigher education is notoriously slow to adopt new trends, but Lia emphasizes the benefits of integrating influencer marketing into university strategies:Reach Gen Z and Gen Alpha: These demographics trust influencers and prefer authentic, peer-led communication over institutional messaging.Evolve Beyond Celebrities: Influencers today include professionals, experts, and niche creators, making the strategy accessible to universities with diverse audiences.Build Relatable Content: Influencers excel at creating compelling content that resonates with their audience, often outperforming traditional advertising.Lia encourages institutions to think locally, identifying influencers within their community, such as star student-athletes, faculty with niche audiences, or alumni with strong online presences.Finding and Collaborating with InfluencersWhen it comes to sourcing influencers, Lia suggests the following:Social Listening: Observe who your students engage with online. Tools can help, but even manual research—like monitoring social media interactions—yields insights.Personal Outreach: Sliding into DMs with genuine compliments or proposals can open doors for collaboration.Creative Compensation: Not all partnerships require big budgets. Consider offering speaking opportunities, awards, or aligning with the influencer's passions to add value.For example, a university might work with a prominent alumni influencer to create content showcasing campus life. The collaboration doesn't have to break the bank—highlighting shared values or giving access to unique resources can be enough.Influencer Marketing on a BudgetHigher ed marketers often face budget constraints, but Lia stresses that great partnerships are still possible. Micro-influencers or creators with smaller, engaged followings can be affordable and impactful. Additionally, repurposing influencer-created content for institutional social media channels can stretch limited resources.Institutions can also look internally for influencers. Professors with expertise, athletes, or even enthusiastic students can act as authentic voices for the university. Lia highlights examples like Stephen Nedorazek, an Olympian and Penn State student whose collaboration with the university has amplified its reach.Staying Informed in a Rapidly Evolving SpaceLia recommends staying current through newsletters, books, and conferences. For beginners, she suggests resources like her own newsletter, In Case You Missed It, as well as other thought leaders like Rachel Karten and Lindsay Gamble. Regularly attending events like VidCon or VidSummit can also provide inspiration and insights into the latest trends.Guest Name: Lia Haberman, Creator Economy Expert | Advisor | EducatorGuest Socials:LinkedInXInstagramBlueskyTikTok Guest Bio: Lia Haberman is a distinguished Creator Economy expert and author of the best selling ICYMI newsletter — a must read for anyone in the social marketing space.She's been tapped for her social media and creator insights by brands such as Google, Robert Half and AT&T, she was invited to attend the first ever Creator Economy Conference at the White House in 2024, and has led live creator workshops for clients such as YouTubers Colin and Samir, Macy's and Riot Games.She teaches social media and influencer marketing at UCLA Extension; has created custom lectures for visiting students from Zhejiang University, SKEMA Business School and ESIC University; and was asked to speak to a delegation as part of the U.S. Department of State's International Visitor Leadership Program at UCLA.

In today's episode of The Health Fix Podcast, Dr. Jannine Krause tackles the overwhelm of the wellness space. With constant conflicting advice, fear-based messaging, and a daily influx of new health information, how can you know what's right for you? Dr. Krause shares her insights on developing health intuition to guide your decisions based on your unique condition and needs. What You'll Learn in This Episode: The test sequence Dr. Krause uses to help clients identify the root cause of symptoms. How to determine which supplements or foods are best for your body. Why slowing down and asking yourself questions is essential for informed health choices. How to leverage intuition to create personalized wellness protocols. Key Highlights from the Episode: 1. Test Sequence to Identify Symptoms' Root Causes: Dr. Krause introduces a step-by-step method for discerning the source of your symptoms using muscle testing techniques: Muscle Testing (Finger Interlocking Method): Create a "chain link" by interlocking thumb and second fingers from each hand. Ask yes-or-no questions (e.g., "Is this related to a virus, bacteria, stress, etc.?"). If the chain link breaks apart, it's a “yes” or a match to your query; if it holds, it's a “no.” You can use this method to narrow down potential causes and identify next steps, like lab tests or treatments. 2. The Tilt Test for Supplements and Foods: Stand or sit with feet firmly planted. Hold the supplement, food, or product to your chest. Observe your body's reaction: Forward tilt: Your body accepts it. Backward tilt: Your body rejects it. No movement: Your body is neutral toward the item. 3. Intuition and Asking Questions: Take time to ask yourself clear yes-or-no questions about your symptoms, treatments, or next steps. Developing this skill allows you to bypass health noise and confidently focus on what aligns with your body's needs. Resources from the Show: Muscle Testing Techniques: Finger interlocking method. Arm-tapping alternative for strength testing. Tilt Testing: Simple at-home method to evaluate compatibility with supplements or foods. Collaborating with Practitioners: Naturopathic doctors and chiropractors trained in muscle testing can help you refine and validate your findings. Takeaway Message: The path to personalized wellness starts with slowing down, tuning into your body, and asking the right questions. By cultivating your health intuition, you can sift through the noise, trust your instincts, and make decisions that truly serve your unique health journey.

Join us for an intimate dive into two Warren Zevon albums - 'Life'll Kill Ya' (2000) and 'My Ride's Here' (2002). In this third episode of a three part tribute to Warren Zevon, LEGENDS: Podcast by All Day Vinyl and host Scott Dudelson take you on an journey deep into two albums that showcase Zevon's unflinching wit, deep introspection, and fearless exploration of life, death, and everything in between. To peel back the layers of these remarkable records, we are joined by two of Zevon's closest collaborators: Jorge Calderón, his trusted lifetime co-writer and multi-instrumentalist, and Noah Scot Snyder, the engineer and mixer who helped bring 'My Ride's Here' to life. Together, they share personal insights, untold stories, and a wealth of behind-the-scenes moments that bring Zevon's genius into sharp focus. What You'll Discover in This Episode: A Deep Dive into the Creative Process: Learn how songs like “Porcelain Monkey” emerged from everyday conversations and vivid storytelling. Jorge shares how a Graceland postcard sparked the song's haunting narrative about Elvis Presley. Zevon's Evolving Career: Explore how 'Life'll Kill Ya' marked Zevon's return after years of struggling for a record deal, with much of the album being self-recorded in his home studio, aptly named Anatomy of a Headache. Dark Humor Meets Mortality: Hear the story behind “My Shit's F***ed Up,” a raw and prophetic anthem written years before Zevon's cancer diagnosis, as well as the poignant “Don't Let Us Get Sick." Collaborating with Legends: We dive into Zevon's experience co-writing with literary giants like Hunter S. Thompson and Paul Muldoon, and how that experience carved the path into Zevon's final album "The Wind." The Practical Realities of Creativity: Noah Scot Snyder reflects on working with a meticulous artist who pushed the limits of early digital recording technology while mentoring a young engineer in the process. The Lost Tapes: The pair reveal that the Master tapes for 'Life'll Kill Ya' are lost and only because of Zevon & Snyder's foresight were the tapes for his follow up album "The Wind" preserved & stored properly. Why This Episode Matters: 'Life'll Kill Ya' and 'My Ride's Here' represent two of Zevon's most introspective and uncompromising works, created during a period of significant personal and professional transformation. Through the anecdotes, humor, and heartfelt reflections of those who knew him best, this episode offers an intimate portrait of a man who refused to compromise his artistic vision. Whether you're a longtime fan or new to Warren Zevon's music, this conversation sheds light on the creative genius and enduring legacy of one of rock's most distinctive voices.

Jack Miner Bible-verse-inscribed leg bands have long been revered as holy grail momentos among in-the-know waterfowl hunters. Formed in 1904 by a former fur trapper and market hunter, the Jack Miner Migratory Bird Sanctuary once garnered international attention and was Canada's foremost tourist attraction, connecting legions of both hunters and non-hunters to wild geese and ducks. But times change. Public interests shift. Now in a time where habitat loss is unprecedented, where hunter participation increasingly dwindles, and a more urbanized humanity is disengaged from their wild surroundings, Jack Miner's legacy seems more important than ever before. Collaborating with 50 Ducks' streaming migration technology, they're on an "education is conservation" mission to turn the tide. And need your help.

Following up on Mark's admission that he dreads collaboration, whether it's with peers or employees, Jesse discusses one way the leadership team at YNAB has fostered collaboration. They call it the strategic council, and it's a two(ish) day meeting with all the functions at YNAB presenting the challenges and opportunities for growth in each function. The meeting is tightly structured, with desginated time slots for each team to present and field questions. This is critical to keep things moving and keep the focus on getting started with solving problems. It's not a time to fully solve problems and implement strategies, it's simply a time to get everything everyone is working on out in the open, so that everyone is aware of the challenges and no one is caught by surprise. Mark points out that this type of meeting has the potential to become toxic if teams are concerned about protecting their own reputations rather than being open with their challenges, and thereby use the meeting time to deflect problems and shift blame. To Jesse, this kind of meeting can only happen productively with high trust teams, who are all aligned with the idea that the presentations are a way to make the company better. In a low trust environment, the collaborative aspect of the strategic council falls apart quickly. Mark and Jesse end on a discussion of collaboration as a way of buying back your time. Jesse explains how his personal assistant has not only saved him time by taking care of mundane problems for him, but has shored up the "mental leaks" that occur when your focus is distracted by competing priorities. Mark shares that despite his preference to use software over humans to free up his time and mental capacity, he has found an employee with high initiative and drive to solve problems on their own to be very useful.

Mindset Matters Podcast Summary In this engaging episode of Mindset Matters, Patrick and Steffany Francey delve into the dynamics of collaboration, competition, and communication, using inspiration from Adam Kahane's book Collaborating with the Enemy. The conversation kicks off with Steffany sharing her exciting trip to the Grand Prix Final in France, where she supports world-class ice dance teams from the Ice Academy of Montreal. Patrick seamlessly transitions this into a broader discussion on the paradox of competition and collaboration. The hosts reflect on the challenges of working in high-stakes environments where competitors train together, emphasizing the importance of creating a culture that elevates everyone's performance. Patrick introduces the "champion's paradox"—the idea that while winning often means surpassing others, focusing solely on "beating" opponents lowers one's energy and potential. Instead, staying committed to one's own preparation, values, and vision leads to authentic success. Steffany and Patrick explore critical aspects of collaboration, such as the necessity of dialog and trust. They stress the value of creating a safe environment for honest communication, setting "rules of engagement," and embracing active listening. The hosts also highlight the importance of context in difficult conversations, providing practical tools for framing discussions in ways that foster understanding and respect. The episode unpacks topics like trust, perseverance, and diversity of thought while critiquing how modern narratives around inclusivity can dilute the true value of diverse perspectives. Steffany shares examples of helping clients navigate conflicts in environments that clash with their values, illustrating how alignment can be achieved even amidst disagreement. The conversation concludes with reflections on leadership, the role of facilitation, and the power of staying aligned with shared goals. Packed with actionable insights, this episode offers listeners a roadmap to navigate complex relationships and foster growth through collaboration.
