“Befriending fear – befriending our inner critic – is so helpful.” - Diana Allen This Real Talk highlights the importance of a celebration mindset, the three crucial words to ask yourself when confronted with negative self-talk, and how to push back against fear! I had a lovely time chatting with Diana Allen – Life and Career Empowerment Coach. Diana and I share many similarities, including our robust involvement with executive recruiting. For over 30 years, Diana served hundreds of people through her recruiting career. After realizing she had a passion for helping people find their power to design the lives that they really want, Diana transitioned to the Life and Career coaching space! There's so much to glean from her story, especially her wisdom regarding how to make a leap toward a more fulfilling life, despite what the naysayers think. Her celebration mindset approach is critical to making progress over time, as it focuses on celebrating even the tiniest of wins, and reframes “losses” to be celebration worthy too! One of my favorite parts of this Real Talk was our discussion around the importance of the thoughts that we tell ourselves everyday. Circumstances align with what you continually tell yourself, and can have either negative or positive repercussions. Strap in for an insightful, encouraging conversation with the lovely Diana Allen, and make sure to drop me a note on my Instagram or Facebook about what your favorite takeaway is! If you enjoyed this episode share it! Remember sharing is caring and you never know who may benefit from the wisdom dropped! With so much love & gratitude, Grace
Roy L Hales/ Cortes Currents - Cortes Island is experiencing a wetter than normal Spring this year, but Some of Cortes Island's shallow well owners experience water shortages every summer, and scientists appear to agree that there will be more severe shortages in the future. This is a global problem and there appear to be many causes: the depletion of forest coverage, growth of human infrastructure, natural drought cycles and on top of all that, the transition to a warmer global temperature. Interviews with John Preston, Red Williams, Miranda Cross, Dr. Ashley Jollymore, Dr. Diana Allen and Dr Bethany Coulthard.
Roy L Hales/ Cortes Currents - As the level 4 ‘drought' continues and some shallow well owners are concerned about their water supply, CKTZ News asked an expert about Cortes Island aquifers. Dr Diana Allen is the head of the Groundwater Resources Research Group at Simon Fraser University. While she has not been to Cortes, Allen has been working on islands like Hornby, Mayne, Saturna and Salt Spring since 1996.
Roy L Hales/ CKTZ News - CKTZ news recently asked Dr Diana Allen, head of the Groundwater Resources Research Group in the Department of Earth Sciences at Simon Fraser University, some vital questions about Cortes Island's aquifer. Does drilling a well threaten to collapse Cortes Islands aquifer and thus inadvertently threaten the community's water supply? The question arose during an interview last week, in which it was also pointed out that what used a to be year round wetland now dries up every summer. Local well driller Red Williams says that while he sometimes hears the idea of collapsing an aquifer, he has never encountered a case of this happening. The main problem he has seen is shallow wells going dry: you will always have shallow wells that dry up and the aquifer is replenished by rainfall. “Yes, I agree with him,“ said Allen, who immediately added, “Well, I guess it depends what someone considers to be collapsing an aquifer.” Allen went on to talk about subsidence, adding that she has heard of it in places like California's Central Valley and Mexico City, but not British Columbia. “When you take ground water out of an aquifer that consists of interlayers of sand and clay, there is the potential for the clay to lose whatever water it has in it and squish. That can cause subsidence,” she explained. “You have to take a lot of water out … huge quantities, or also where oil and gas have been taken out of deep sedimentary rocks … but for small aquifers, like what you would find on Cortes Island, I do not think subsidence would be a real problem.” Taking CKTZ News on a tour of the registered aquifers on the iMapBC website, Allen discovered that all three of the aquifers that cover much of Whaletown (#843, #844 & #845) are in crystalline bedrock rock, where subsidence is not an issue. Aquifer #841 which feeds most of the land between Mansons Landing and Sutil point, is sand and gravel. “When the glaciers were all melting, they would have dumped a whole bunch of sand and gravel on this point. This is actually a confined aquifer, so there is some clay over the top of it that is providing natural protection to that aquifer. So this would be a good quality aquifer,” she explained.” Aquifers #842 and #846, which feed the area between Mansons Landing and Cortes Bay, are in rock. “So it is really only this southern tip. All the other areas that have been mapped with aquifers show bedrock,” said Allen. The aquifers feeding more than three quarters of Cortes Island – Tiber Bay, Squirrel Cove and all the lands in the north – are not mapped. Allen explained that this would have been because this area is so sparsely settled. The 2002 geological survey of Cortes Island map show that most of Squirrel Cove is sand, mud and gravel, but the rest of northern Cortes is primarily rock. So, if Cortes Island's aquifers aren't collapsing, how do you explain that wetland, that used to be filled with water year round and has dried up the last few summers? She explained, "That's where Climate Change comes in." Photo credit: Photo by Roy L Hales
Featuring, Ben Lawhon of Leave No Trace, John DeFillipo of the John Bunker Sands Wetland Center, & Diana Allen of the National Parks Service. With 750 partners, on state and federal levels, Leave No Trace, promotes the LNT principals in all outdoor activities. They work to educate communities in schools, tourism, non-profits and beyond reaching nearly 15 million people. LNT also collects metrics to understand how their education positively impacts nature health, as well as people’s attitude toward stewardship. Ben details some of the biggest threats to our public lands including, human waste, campfires leading to wildfires, and litter. All of these polluters also impact human health - mental and physical. LNT advocates for giving back, volunteering in parks and protected areas to truly understand how these shared spaces work and become part of the solution. LNT also provides key information surrounding the trends & shifts we should expect in outdoor recreation during and post COVID-19. John Bunker Sands Wetlands is one of the Dallas Metroplex premiere nature areas, with an incredible impact on local wildlife and ecosystems. JBS Wetlands is in partnership with North Texas Municipal Water District and provides clean drinking water, and an incredible opportunity for education for students and parents about water conservation and filtration. JBS Wetlands also manages invasive plant species, to preserve habitat for the wildlife. The need for wetlands is high, not only to protect local wildlife, but to provide water for humans during the frequent droughts in Texas. John DeFillipo advises listeners to make a positive impact by gaining conservation literacy - truly understanding where their water comes from and how the water supplies can be used. Natural spaces, most pointedly our National Parks, are the cornerstones of our health and wellbeing. The NPS has a longstanding mission of protecting and promoting human health. National Parks were established to provide all people access to outdoor recreation, clean water and clean air. Not only does the NPS ensure health for its' visitors, but also for its' employees and the land. The Healthy Parks Healthy People Program is working partnership with doctors to prescribe time in parks as medicine. Diana reminds our listeners that the people who are most vulnerable to COVID-19, those suffering from underlying health conditions, are those who would benefit most from this prescription of recreating responsibly in nearby nature spaces to manage conditions like pre-diabetes and beyond. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/healthy-radio/support

Petra is a Vocal Coach, Singing Teacher, Life & Career Coach for Creatives in Glasgow, United Kingdom. she has special expertise in helping (performing) artists and creatives to overcome limiting beliefs and emotional blocks to perform better and without fear. She has helped hundreds of people to prepare for or sustain a singing career, find personal fulfilment through music and overcome limiting beliefs and performance anxiety. Our conversation is broken into two parts, first dealing with performance anxiety for the singer, and second, setting oneself up for a growth mindset as a professional. Petra began in this field by wanting to move the conversation with her students from the pure level of empathy to actually knowing the steps to enable the client or student to come up with their own solutions. Here’s the important points I’ve picked up so far. Performance anxiety may be caused by 1.a trauma from the past 2.perfectionism, we don’t feel we are enough yet 3.Too much outward focus, not enough inward focus. As a mindset coach, Petra works with people to “get a grip” on their own minds, like self limiting beliefs not wanting to reveal a weakness comparing themselves too much of others Becoming aware of where you are on the continuum of a fixed mindset is a good start Petra recommends the Mindset: The New Psychology of Success by Carol Dweck - https://amzn.to/2ADUwnY I’d like to talk to you briefly about my book the Teen Girl’s Singing Guide because there is a big section in that book on performance anxiety, written by Dr. Diana Allen, who was a guest of one of the most popular episodes of this podcast, episode ES022. In the book, Diana talks about many similar things to what Petra talks about here. Diana calls herself a peak performance coach. And Petra calls herself a mindset coach. These two awesome women have in common that they work with creative professionals and amateurs, and specialize in singers. There are many mindset and peak performance coaches who work with athletes, business people, and others, but to have these two women available to us as musicians - that’s a great thing. Both of these people base their careers on helping us achieve our dreams. So we should take advantage of that. Wherever you are in the world, you can reach out to Petra. The best way to find her is through her website: www.singingsense.com What you’ll find there is her 3 Step Breakthrough Program for Creatives, her blog, and links to her totally useful social media pages.
