I'm Bill Corbett, author of the book love, limits, & lessons, a parent's guide to raising cooperative kids. Thanks for downloading and listening to this podcast. Author, educator and professional speaker, Dan Blanchard stopped by my studio the other day and we found ourselves talking about how some parents equate love to buying things for their kids. The holidays are getting closer and we've both seen absent parents swooping in to shower their children with all sorts of gifts and presents, and then swooping back out to being invisible again. These kinds of parents find it difficult to make the experience of being with their children and listening, the real gift. Our hope for this episode is that some absent and busy parents might hear our conversation and then make the decision to buy less and be 100% present more. Adults might think that their kids want the gifts and money more, but what they really want is a parent's silent attention, their smile, their confirmation that they hear them and their loving interaction. Thank you for listening to the CREATING COOPERATIVE KIDS podcast series. To get Dan's latest book, look up THE STORM: How Young Men Become Good Men. If you would like more help with discipline and parenting, please visit my website, www.cooperativekids.com or email me at bill@cooperativekids.com. Making the world a better place to live begins by using a style of discipline that not only creates more cooperation today, but also helps our children eventually find their purpose in life, on schedule.

We've all heard a tall tale or two, but when it comes to Captain Dan Blanchard—well, he's the real thing. Growing up in Washington State, he has always been around boats. Even as a kid, Dan worked alongside other family members restoring the family's wooden tug. And the reward of all that hard work paid off in a big way—exploring winding waterways, beachcombing on remote shores, oyster picking and clam digging, learning to skin dive, incredible wildlife and cultural encounters, and a lifetime on the water. At this point, it's just part of his genetic makeup. Dan's unassailable career began early. As an accomplished Sea Scout, his leadership skills earned him honors of Regional Boatswain and National Boatswain Mate when he was 16. At 18, he received his Ship Master's License. He attended Everett Community College, and from there he's lived a storied-tale—owner and operator of Blanchard Marine; Captain of sightseeing vessels at Glacier Bay Lodge in Alaska; 14 years at Alaska Sightseeing/Cruise West working through the ranks from Captain to Director of Marine Operations to Vice President of Operations; and in 1999, he joined American Safari Cruises. Dan acquired the company in 2008 and as Principal/CEO, launched InnerSea Discoveries, a new small boat expedition company specializing in active adventures on the water. In January 2013, the company changed its name to Un-Cruise Adventures. A natural storyteller (2012 winner of Seattle's annual "Stories of the Sea" contest), enthusiastic skier and cyclist, energetic hiker, world-explorer in off-the-chart places, accomplished sailor, ocean lover, lover of the natural world, and lover of life are just a few of the tags and feverish passions you can pin on Dan. And in May 2013, he was adopted into a native Tlingit tribe. He's living the dream and wouldn't have it any other way. For Dan, it can't get much sweeter with both of his kids in the biz working beside him—it's safe to say it's in their genes too.
Our host, Dan Blanchard speaks with business and leadership coach, Rick Nelson about how he helps local companies implement the Entrepreneurial Operating System (EOS). But first, Frank Lauletta and Charlie Muracco provide updates and insight regarding PPPFA and Governor Murphy's "One Jersey Pledge."

Facebook Twitter Instagram The Outdoor Biz Podcast patreon.com/theoutdoorbizpodcast Please give us a rating and review HERE Show Notes Dan tells us about the cool adventures offered by UnCruise and some great locations to add to your adventure bucket list. First Exposure to the Outdoors Mine starts in a different way, when I was four years old my family bought a tugboat here in Puget Sound which we lived on summers and I was granted a log raft on the Snohomish River. So my first personal adventure experience was when I was five my dad let me and a buddy go on a about a 1,000 foot leash up the river where we broke the leash and went down the river. Fortunately this was the tidal part of the river so there were no rapids. But you know at that the Gilligan's Island show was a big thing and we had on this wood raft we had an antenna, a steering wheel that did nothing and of course we were scared to death but we were singing the Gilligan's Island going down this river. Things we talked about UnCruise Adventures Pacific Northwest The Amazon Costa Rica Panama The Gulf Coast Alaska Sea of Cortez Columbia The Arctic Advice, tips The first thing of course is have the desire. I always like the folks that come up through the guide ranks. They understand the guiding side and the importance of what we do. Then there's a whole other level of understanding business which most of us that are passionate about what we do have no idea about. This takes a while, generally adventure people aren't necessarily business folks first, they're adventure people first. So I would suggest to anybody that has started their world in adventuring and guiding and this kind of thing to start a small business first. Most of these adventure jobs are seasonal so maybe you start doing yoga retreats in Alaska on your own during the offseason and get that experience. Maybe it's just a few weeks a year at a time rather than you know taking the deep plunge where you don't have any income and you're trying to make a year-round business survive.
