Ils arrivent en août. 10 degrés. La lumière ne s'éteint presque pas, et pourtant le corps cherche la nuit. Reykjavik se découvre à pied : le port, les bateaux, les fresques colorées, la cathédrale moderne. Peu d'échanges, beaucoup d'observation. L'impression d'entrer doucement dans un pays qui ne se livre pas tout de suite.Pour écouter l'épisode en entier :Road trip en van en Islande-----------➡️ Si l'épisode vous a plu, laissez-moi une note 5 ⭐️ou un commentaire sur Apple Podcasts ou Spotify

Élodie est partie en Islande avec son conjoint et leur fils de deux ans et demi pour un road trip en van dans le sud de l'île. Après Reykjavik, ils longent la côte, marchent presque tous les jours avec un porte-bébé, dorment au pied des cascades et découvrent les bains chauds naturels, au milieu de paysages bruts. Le voyage se construit au fil de la route, entre froid, lumière permanente, repas simples et piscines municipales. Un récit de voyage vécu dehors, sans chercher à tout voir, au rythme d'un jeune enfant.-----------Merci à mon sponsor HAPE qui propose des jouets éducatifs & responsables pour nos enfants.

This episode of Destination on the Left is a special roadshow edition recorded live at the American Bus Association's Marketplace 2026 in Reno, Nevada. I'm joined by a fantastic group of industry leaders to hear first-hand how collaboration is playing a critical, mission-driven role in the future of group travel, moving beyond a "nice-to-have" and becoming essential for success. My guests discuss the economic impact of group travel and the importance of restoring cross-border connections between the U.S. and Canada, to creative regional itineraries, and share ideas for navigating the political and economic headwinds facing the industry. What You Will Learn in This Episode: How ABA's leadership is addressing current challenges in group travel, including restoring the crucial relationship between the U.S. and Canada Why collaboration between industry partners, including operators, suppliers, associations, and destinations, is mission-critical for the future of group travel Trends are shaping group travel in 2026 and beyond, such as the rise of experiential itineraries, smaller group sizes, and the impacts of major events like the FIFA World Cup and MA250 How regional and cross-border partnerships are creating unique travel experiences and tour products that benefit entire ecosystems, not just individual destinations Collaborative initiatives, such as Tour in 64 are demonstrating the value of teamwork How industry organizations like ABA can accelerate personal and professional growth The Future of Group Travel is Collaboration The ABA 2026 Marketplace is filled with optimism, but nobody shies away from today's realities. Fred Ferguson sets the stage by underscoring the economic importance of group travel—$158 billion in economic output and 800,000 jobs in North America. The entire travel flywheel, operators, destinations, restaurants, and attractions, only spins when everyone works in sync. Fred Ferguson and Terry Fischer both stress that now, more than ever, strategic alliances and industry unity are essential for lasting impact. It's no longer enough to operate in silos. As Terry puts it, "It takes a village," and internal and external collaboration are the most important ingredients in weathering disruptions, from politics to pandemics. Collaboration in Action My guests also share what deep collaboration looks like in practice. Across the group travel ecosystem, leaders are getting creative. We hear how DMOs are embracing regionalism, and Todd Read from SoIN Tourism and Whitney Lubbers of Dubois County described how Tour in 64, a partnership among destinations along Interstate 64, helps smaller markets punch above their weight. By pooling marketing budgets, sharing top experiences, and even jointly running an ABA booth, collective impact outweighs any competition for hotel nights. With mega-events like the FIFA World Cup and MA250 (America's 250th anniversary) on the horizon, Stacey David detailed how municipalities, nonprofits, small businesses, and big attractions can co-create fan zone festivals that benefit everyone. Every stakeholder has a seat at the table for shared successes. The Power of Relationships The ABA conference is a great way to build relations, get involved, and engage with others in the travel and tourism industry. Jim Warren of Anderson Vacations credits strong partnerships as the industry's lifeblood, helping everyone survive the inevitable economic and political storms. Those connections are formed and deepened at conferences like ABA Marketplace. Investments in community, from Women in Buses initiatives to association days, make all the difference for newcomers and veterans alike. Leaders are putting collaboration-first strategies in place—whether it's regional joint marketing, creating new products, or advocating for the sector at the policy level.

In this episode, Rabbi Cohen and I, explore a powerful framework for understanding spiritual growth when effort feels slow, incentives disappear, or life stops following the system we thought we understood. If you've ever wondered why progress sometimes feels incremental and other times requires a complete inner shift, this conversation offers clarity and reassurance. You'll gain perspective on how humility, persistence, and asking for help each play a role in becoming who you're meant to be, and why both steady growth and sudden transformation are part of Hashem's design.

I've come to learn that a lot of Reiki practitioners are working with only half the equation - and, in my experience, that costs us energy, confidence, and spiritual authority. In this episode, I unpack the difference between Reiki energy (universal life force energy), and personal life force energy. If you're pulled to tune in, you'll discover why understanding these 2 separate energetic systems means you won't be energetically or Spiritually compromised when working with clients. By the end of listening in, you'll discover:The "hollow bone" vs. "clear channel" distinction ~ Learn why being a hollow bone (the bridge between physical and spiritual realms) is the foundation for spiritually guided healing, and why the channel language without this understanding may keep you feeling deeper connection is available. Why your energy gets depleted (even though you've been trying to protect it) & how to stop that happening~ Discover an often hidden truth: when you're not the bridge between worlds, your personal life force energy gets pulled into the healing work. This explains that exhausted feeling after sessions. The energetic entanglement nobody is speaking about ~ You can't fill an egg yolk with egg white. When you're extracting personal energy from clients with or without knowing it, you need to return personal energy - not use Reiki energy to fill the gap. Learn the two techniques (spiritual detoxification and personal life force energy return) that Reiki training doesn't normally cover. Your authentic spirit-led reiki style (away from your lineage's rule book) ~ As you know, Reiki isn't one-size-fits-all, yet most practitioners & teachers are bound by methods that don't resonate with their own animistic and cultural lineage, even when actively working in their own way. Uncover how to access your exclusive, spiritually guided style of working with Reiki energy that's uniquely yours - and infinitely more powerful, in my experience. The 3 huge shifts that happen when you understand the difference ~ Stop over-functioning. Eliminate energetic bleed. Reclaim your sovereignty. Learn how understanding that Reiki and personal life force are separate systems fundamentally evolves how you practice, hold space, and most importantly - how you live without becoming a martyr to the cause of supporting others.

On this episode of Destination on the Left, I talk with Maureen Wheeler, Deputy Director of Livingston County Economic Development, and Tourism Director Ashley Comeau to discuss the strategic moves Maureen's department made to bring tourism under the same roof as economic development. We talk about business retention and expansion, building robust small destinations, and why visitor spending is critical for rural areas. Ashley and Maureen also share more about the business plan contest designed to attract breweries, restaurants, and experiential businesses to the area, and how that initiative has created a pipeline of businesses for the county, leading to multiple collaborations. What You Will Learn in This Episode: How Maureen and Ashley's organizations collaborate in Livingston County to build a stronger local economy Why visitor spending is critical to sustaining small businesses and downtowns in rural areas Challenges Livingston County faced around having enough assets and experiences to keep visitors longer How the business plan contest process worked and why collaboration, even within a competition, was key to its success Why the Libation Loop became a flagship example of coopetition among local beverage businesses, and how it engaged both visitors and residents How branding and product development, including the launch of the LivCo identity, have helped locals embrace Livingston County as a place to be proud of Strategies Maureen and Ashley use to manage partnerships and set up collaborations for long-term success Economic Development Meets Tourism Livingston County's approach combines economic development and tourism efforts under one umbrella. This partnership creates what Maureen calls a virtuous cycle where tourism enhances local life and attracts new businesses, while a strong economy supports a better visitor experience. The end result is a coordinated push to grow both visitor spending and local prosperity, particularly critical for rural areas where businesses rely heavily on both types of revenue. Creativity in Addressing Core Challenges Like many rural destinations, Livingston County faces the challenge of needing more assets to promote, as Ashley explains. Visitors come to the area for headline attractions such as Letchworth State Park, but the county needs more restaurants, breweries, and experiential activities to encourage longer stays. This is what led to the business plan competition, a creative, strategic initiative designed to fill these gaps. By zeroing in on the types of experiences visitors crave (breweries, restaurants, indoor recreation), Livingston County has fueled a pipeline of new businesses, enriching the fabric of the destination. What sets this competition apart is its collaborative nature: participants go through entrepreneurship training together, forging connections and partnerships that last well beyond the contest itself. The Story of the Libation Loop One standout example of coopetition is the Libation Loop, a craft-beverage trail that began with a targeted competition to attract breweries. Rather than isolating single businesses, the team aimed to launch several breweries at once, strategically positioning them to link Livingston County to the wider Finger Lakes craft scene. What surprised the organizers most was the spirit of collaboration among the brewers, who supported one another while offering insights and partnership opportunities. As breweries opened and the trail matured, the baton was seamlessly passed to tourism to promote the new collective asset. The Libation Loop now features 12 participants (breweries, wineries, distilleries, and cideries) and is a highly sought-after product for visitors and locals alike. The involvement of local artists in designing the Loop map and branded merchandise has further strengthened pride and sense of place, with residents even adopting the "LivCo" brand into business names. It's not just about attracting tourists—it's about creating a community locals want to be part of.

Send us a message!Destination marketing is in a pressure test.Short-term rentals have become a major part of how people travel, yet many DMOs still struggle with how (or whether) to include them. At the same time, AI is speeding up the research-to-booking journey and forcing destinations to rethink what “relevance” even means.In this episode, Alex and Annie sit down with Stuart Butler (President of Visit Myrtle Beach) and Adam Stoker (President of Brand Revolt) to unpack what's getting in the way, what alignment can look like, and why the next version of destination marketing is going to require better coordination across the whole destination economy.You'll hear practical takes on funding dynamics, stakeholder value, the “illusion of relevance” in reporting, and why the future may turn DMO websites into something closer to infrastructure than a traditional marketing channel.Episode Chapters:00:54 – Stuart's background and how he landed in destination work02:27 – Adam's background and how he sees the DMO landscape05:37 – The “illusion of relevance,” metrics, and why DMOs feel behind07:44 – The Indianapolis example, why some DMOs leave STRs out09:28 – Can DMOs stay relevant without vacation rentals11:53 – Why STRs need a seat at the table and what it takes to get one14:34 – What STR operators can do in markets without big PM groups19:16 – Funding reality, stakeholder influence, and how STRs earn attention22:27 – Why getting involved with a DMO teaches you more than you expect23:51 – The bigger DMO question, purpose, scope, and identity30:31 – How performance reporting shaped destination websites30:54 – Why the booking engine path can be a strategic dead end36:49 – Stewardship, community trust, and what destinations are accountable for50:06 – AI as a watershed moment for travel discovery and decision-making57:59 – What destination content needs to look like in an AI-first world1:02:21 – Closing thoughts on websites, infrastructure, and the road aheadConnect with Stuart:LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/stuart-butler-50aaa45/ Website: http://www.visitmyrtlebeach.com/ Connect with Adam:LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/adamstoker/ Website: https://thebrandrevolt.com/ ✨ Exclusive Offer to Alex & Annie Listeners:Streamline your short-term rental operations with Hostfully.Mention the Alex & Annie Podcast when you sign up and get free onboarding ($1000 value).

Do you ever feel like joy is just out of reach? Is it something you have to work for, fake, or wait for some future version of yourself to finally experience? Heather Creekmore gets it—and she’s opening up in this episode with honesty about her own struggles to feel true joy, even while doing “all the right things” as a Christian.

What happens when a health system stops trying to recruit its way out of a workforce challenge, and instead redesigns the pipeline itself? In this episode of Bright Spots in Healthcare, Eric Glazer sits down with Dr. Lindsay Mazotti, Chief Medical Officer of Medical Science and Education at Sutter Health, for a candid, system-level conversation about rethinking how physicians are trained, supported, and developed for the future of care. Rather than focusing on workforce shortages as a policy or awareness problem, this conversation explores what happens after the reality is already clear—when leaders choose to redesign foundational systems instead of managing around constraints. Dr. Mazotti shares how Sutter is treating graduate medical education as strategic infrastructure, not an academic side function, and what it takes to build a physician pipeline that can scale, adapt, and endure. Using examples from rural training pathways, academic partnerships, research translation, and digital transformation, the discussion surfaces how education becomes the load-bearing structure that allows health systems to absorb change without breaking. This episode is designed for health system leaders who are no longer asking whether change is needed, but are grappling with how to build systems that can carry what's coming next. In this episode, we cover: Why physician shortages can't be solved through recruiting alone How Sutter is redesigning the physician pipeline end to end What changes when graduate medical education is treated as core infrastructure How training clinicians for place shapes rural and underserved care delivery Why education is the missing link between research, digital innovation, and day-to-day care Where clinician training determines adoption—or abandonment—of new technologies The leadership tradeoffs that come with moving from individual patient care to system-level impact What leaders must unlearn when building durable, long-term capability About Dr. Lindsay Mazotti: Dr. Lindsay Mazotti leads system-wide initiatives at Sutter Health that advance medical education, research, and innovation in support of the organization's mission to deliver exceptional, patient-centered care to more than 3 million patients across 22 counties in Northern California. In her role, she focuses on strategically integrating medical education into the health system's infrastructure to align with long-term priorities, including Sutter's Destination 2030 initiative. Dr. Mazotti oversees undergraduate and graduate medical education across the system—spanning clinical rotations, scholarships, residency and fellowship programs, and academic partnerships—while working closely with aligned medical groups representing more than 14,000 physicians to develop and support physician educators. Her work centers on building innovative training pathways that address physician workforce needs, align with evolving care delivery models, and strengthen long-term system capability, with the goal of quadrupling Sutter's GME footprint by 2030 to become the largest community-based GME program in California.

You're not standing still; you're already on a path, and every decision you make is taking you somewhere. This is true for you and for every person entrusted to you. If every decision is a step, then where are your steps taking you?In this opening conversation of "Destination Decisions," we turn to the wisdom of our theme verse Proverbs 4:18–19, where Scripture draws a clear contrast between two paths: one bright and increasingly clear, the other dark and disorienting. Every day, whether we realize it or not, we are choosing which path to walk—and every choice is moving us somewhere.This episode invites listeners to slow down and consider how daily decisions shape spiritual direction. Through the Seek Him Speak Him framework, we begin by meeting with God in His Word, asking three simple but powerful questions: What is God saying? Why does it matter? How should we respond? Scripture becomes more than something we read—it becomes a lamp for our feet and a light for our path.Jesus said He is the Light of the world, and following Him changes how we walk. Instead of stumbling forward in uncertainty, we learn how to choose a well-lit path marked by truth, wisdom, and faithfulness. These conversations are designed to be practical, repeatable, and accessible—meant to move easily from personal devotion into meaningful discipleship moments with kids, grandkids, students, or friends.As we consider our own direction, we're also invited to bring others along. Discipleship begins with a conversation, and every path is an invitation.The question isn't whether you're on a path. The question is: which destination are your decisions leading you toward?Share this episode with someone navigating an important choice, and start walking the bright path—one faithful step at a time.

Lies don't usually start loud—they start convenient. A small bend of the truth. A quiet omission. A moment that feels easier than honesty. But every step is taking us somewhere.In this Destination Decisions conversation, Lies or Truth?, we press into the tension we all recognize: how quickly “little lies” become normal, and why Scripture treats truth not as a preference, but a path. Rooted in Proverbs 12:22, we explore what it means that the Lord delights in people who are trustworthy, and how repeated choices slowly train the heart toward either clarity or confusion.This episode helps families name what's really at stake. Lies don't just damage trust; they make us vulnerable to deception. Truth, practiced consistently, forms discernment, confidence, and freedom. We contrast the enemy's aim as the father of lies with Jesus' own words: “I am the Way and the Truth.” Direction matters—and so does destination.You'll hear a simple, disarming visual that changes the tone at home: a "Destinations Chart" that pairs Lies with deception and Truth with Jesus' character. Instead of shaming kids for mistakes, parents learn to ask a better question: Which direction is this choice taking you?We also introduce a powerful habit—quarterly “truth dates”—creating intentional space for honest conversation through consistent, grace-filled questions that invite confession without fear.Real change starts with modeling. When parents own their missteps, ask forgiveness, and return quickly to the light, truth becomes the family default.This isn't about perfection. It's about direction.And remember, discipleship starts with a conversation.The devotion-driven discipleship guide that accompanies this conversation is available in the Family Disciple Me app.______________________The Family Disciple Me ministry exists to catalyze devotion driven discipleship in our homes and around the world.

What if your daily habits are quietly deciding your destination—long before you ever notice the outcome?In DESTINATION DECISIONS: Bad Habits or Good Health, we step into a Scripture that often surprises people: God cares about your body, not just your soul. Rooted in 3 John 1:2, this conversation explores the idea of life as a “prosperous journey” - - - one shaped by the small, repeated choices we make every day.This episode doesn't preach perfection or promote a one-size-fits-all health plan. Instead, it invites an honest look at how our habits—food, sleep, substances, sexuality, rest, and movement—either support the life God desires for us or slowly pull us off course. We talk candidly about how easy it is to squander good health through unexamined routines, and why Scripture consistently connects holiness, wisdom, and embodied living.You'll hear a real-life story of chronic health struggle that led to a humble pivot: fewer extremes, more prayer, and simple, sustainable habits practiced over time. From a short sugar fast that became a family rhythm to small changes that produced surprising clarity and consistency, this episode highlights how direction matters more than intensity.We also name what must be held with care: not all illness is preventable, and suffering always deserves compassion, prayer, and community—not judgment. Still, God invites us to steward what He has given us, using His resources for both His glory and our good.If you're ready to take a gracious inventory—without shame—and make one small change that aligns your body and soul, this conversation is for you. Because every habit is a decision… and every decision leads somewhere.The devotion-driven discipleship guide that goes along with this conversation can be found in the Family Disciple Me app. ______________________The Family Disciple Me ministry exists to catalyze devotion driven discipleship in our homes and around the world.

A tiny shift in trajectory can change everything. We take that idea out of the abstract and make it practical by mapping every choice to a simple question: does this create debt I'll pay later, or an investment that pays me later? From the way GPA decimals tilt scholarship offers to how entry-level jobs build a resilient work ethic, we connect money, character, and faith into one clear framework you can use with your family in meaningful, intentional conversations today.We break down the “character economy” in plain language: selfishness, deception, impurity, and laziness accrue hidden interest that shows up as conflict, stress, and lost trust. Generosity, truthfulness, purity, and hard work compound like good savings—quietly at first, then powerfully over time. With Ephesians 5 guiding the conversation, we explore how wise living means making the most of every opportunity and considering where each step leads. Proverbs and Haggai echo the call to think about our paths, not just our moments.You'll hear practical prompts to spark conversations with kids and teens: how will this choice work out next week, next year, or twenty years from now? What habits are we planting that we actually want to harvest? We also highlight prayer as a high-yield investment that steadies our decisions and aligns our desires. By the end, you'll have a simple, repeatable way to help your family evaluate decisions, adjust course, and aim for a destination marked by freedom, integrity, and peace.You can find the devotion-driven discipleship guide that goes along with this episode at the Family Disciple Me app.If this conversation collection resonates, follow the show, share it with a friend who's shaping young lives, and leave a podcast review!______________________The Family Disciple Me ministry exists to catalyze devotion driven discipleship in our homes and around the world.

Every day, you and your kids are offering something—your words, your hands, your screens, your habits. The question isn't if you're being used, but how. Tool… or weapon?In this episode of "Destination Decisions," we dig into Romans 6:13, where the apostle Paul uses a word that can mean weapon or tool. That tension lands close to home. Tools build, repair, and bless when they're trained and guided. Weapons tear down when they're misused—or aimed the wrong direction. Scripture doesn't let us stay neutral: “Offer every part of yourself to God as an instrument of righteousness.” Every part. Every day.A flooded basement forced host Tosha Williams and her family to strip everything back—and that's when the deeper lesson surfaced. With friends lending tools and teaching safe technique, dangerous equipment became instruments of repair. That same shift—from risk to restoration—frames our conversation about how every part of us can build or break. We explore a simple yet piercing idea from Romans 6:13: your body, voice, and choices can play the role of weapon or tool, and the difference comes down to who you offer them to and what story you serve.We unpack what this looks like in real life, from the words we speak to the posts we publish. Parents, mentors, and caring adults get practical steps to train kids with the same patience and clarity you'd use with a saw: model, coach, supervise, and celebrate growth. We connect the dots to 2 Timothy 2, where moving from common to special use means becoming holy, useful, and ready for good work. Expect examples you can try today—pausing before you text, choosing to bless when you could bite, and setting rhythms that make purpose feel normal.We also address a rising pressure that can't be ignored: teens turning weapons inward. We name the lies, offer language for hard conversations, and share a steady path forward—presence, wise escalation, and practices that honor both God and the person he loves. By the end, you'll have a simple inventory to guide your week: where did my feet go, what did my tongue choose, and how did my hands serve? Join us, reflect with your family, and take one step toward being a tool in the Master's hands.Join the conversation, and find the devotion-driven discipleship guide at the Family Disciple Me app.______________________The Family Disciple Me ministry exists to catalyze devotion driven discipleship in our homes and around the world.

Why your best life isn't about having the right answers, but about asking the right questions.Finding meaning and purpose in life isn't about having all the answers. For Bill Burnett and Dave Evans, it's about having the courage and curiosity to constantly engage with the questions.As designers, Burnett and Evans have careers spanning everything from academia to companies like Apple, Electronic Arts, and Hasbro. But beyond fashioning better products and user experiences, they've also put their expertise toward the transcendent, writing several books about designing and living lives filled with meaning and purpose.“Compasses say North, not Seattle,” says Evans, highlighting how many mistakenly think of purpose as a single destination. “We're all a dynamic, flowing, constantly changing thing. So how could a changing thing have one static right answer?” Instead, he and Burnett maintain that meaning is more about “going the right direction, not [finding] the right destination.”In this episode of Think Fast, Talk Smart, Burnett and Evans join host Matt Abrahams to explore their strategies for leading a purposeful life. Rather than “rehearsing [an] answer,” their method involves “living [a] question” — embracing curiosity and designing a life through dialogue with ourselves and with others.To listen to the extended Deep Thinks version of this episode, please visit FasterSmarter.io/premium.Episode Reference Links:Bill BurnettDave EvansBill and Dave's Book: How to Live a Meaningful LifeEp.181 Why Happiness is a Direction, Not a Destination: Communication, Happiness & WellbeingEp.138 Speak Your Truth: Why Authenticity Leads to Better Communication Connect:Premium Signup >>>> Think Fast Talk Smart PremiumEmail Questions & Feedback >>> hello@fastersmarter.ioEpisode Transcripts >>> Think Fast Talk Smart WebsiteNewsletter Signup + English Language Learning >>> FasterSmarter.ioThink Fast Talk Smart >>> LinkedIn, Instagram, YouTubeMatt Abrahams >>> LinkedInChapters:(00:00) - Introduction (01:02) - Meaning & Purpose as a Direction (01:42) - Coherence & Living in Alignment (02:23) - Design Thinking for Life Decisions (03:56) - Prototyping Conversations (05:29) - Odyssey Plans: Three Possible Futures (07:33) - The Four Elements of Meaning (09:22) - Wonder Glasses: Shifting Perspective (10:48) - Transactional vs. Flow World (12:36) - How to Build a Formative Community (13:59) - The Practice-to-Production Trap (15:07) - The Final Three Questions (18:35) - Conclusion
