Podcasts about Geography

Sometimes the biggest thing holding you back isn't your strategy, your skills, or your motivation. It's your environment. In this episode of The Level Up Podcast, Paul Alex breaks down how your surroundings can directly influence your mindset, creativity, and ability to grow. When you stay in the same routines, the same spaces, and the same circles for too long, your brain can fall into autopilot—making innovation and progress much harder. The truth is, environment shapes standards. The rooms you spend time in, the people you surround yourself with, and even the physical spaces you work from can determine how far you push yourself. In this episode, you'll learn: Why your environment plays a major role in personal and business growth How changing your surroundings can spark creativity and new ideas Why putting yourself in rooms with higher standards forces you to level up faster How upgrading your physical and mental environment can unlock new opportunities Growth often requires stepping outside of your comfort zone—and sometimes that starts by simply changing the room you're in. Because when you upgrade your environment, you naturally raise the standards for what you believe is possible. Your Network is your NETWORTH!

422 Experience Awe   The natural world is one of few places in the world where we can truly feel at peace. Whether it be to get away from the hustle and bustle of life, or even just to get away from all the screens and pollution, we can find a moment to center ourselves and find genuine awe in the world.  In today's episode Sarah Elkins and Thomas Reed discuss the importance of the natural world, finding awe, how we talk to ourselves, as well as finding our own courage to seek the paths that call to us.   Highlights How we interact with the natural world around us. The importance of positive Self Talk.  Beauty of the natural world and its importance to the human psyche.  Where is the one place you can go to that turns off the chatter in your head?   Quotes "I don't know if it was a choice or it was just being me." "Use me as your inspiration, that you don't need inspiration."   Dear Listeners it is now your turn, What will you do to experience awe? I am going to give you one chore, one piece of homework, one suggestion at the end of this episode, is to find an opportunity to experience awe. That could be watching your child do something for the first time, and have them be very proud of themselves. I can tell you I had many of those experiences while my boys were growing up and they had a realization as basic as finding their own thumb when they were infants. There's a sense of awe when you watch other people experience awe or when you experience that sense of awe about another person, like this Chinese woman from a small village that decided to go experience what she did. Experience Awe, go hug a tree, go stand in front of a man made bridge that is inspiring for its unlikeliness, for the fact that somebody had to create that, watch that daffodil start to bloom and realize you didn't have to do a thing to it to make it show up in all it's full color.  Find awe, remember it, and consider that desire to find awe, your connection to the natural world and your humanity.         And, as always, thank you for listening.    About Thomas I studied photography at Rutgers University as a Geography student. Major influences have been Ansel Adams, Edgar Payne, and the Hudson River School. Zen sensibilities profoundly influence my compositions, as I am a student of Japanese martial arts and aesthetics (chado). Black and white is my genre My work is centered on the experience of awe at the sight of a landscape, and I hope it leads to the consideration that nature itself is divine, sacred, and that stewardship, as opposed to the dominant utilitarian view, is the only sane attitude. Be sure to check out Thomas's Facebook, his Photos, LinkedIn, and Instagram! As well as Peak Wellness, his website Tom Reed, and his books at Tom Reed Books!   About Sarah "Uncovering the right stories for the right audiences so executives, leaders, public speakers, and job seekers can clearly and actively demonstrate their character, values, and vision." In my work with coaching clients, I guide people to improve their communication using storytelling as the foundation of our work together. What I've realized over years of coaching and podcasting is that the majority of people don't realize the impact of the stories they share - on their internal messages, and on the people they're sharing them with. My work with leaders and people who aspire to be leaders follows a similar path to the interviews on my podcast, uncovering pivotal moments in their lives and learning how to share them to connect more authentically with others, to make their presentations and speaking more engaging, to reveal patterns that have kept them stuck or moved them forward, and to improve their relationships at work and at home. The audiobook, Your Stories Don't Define You, How You Tell Them Will is now available! Included with your purchase are two bonus tracks, songs recorded by Sarah's band, Spare Change, in her living room in Montana. Be sure to check out the Storytelling For Professionals Course as well to make sure you nail that next interview!

Rose Bao is a canine behaviourist, counsellor, and coach, guided by fear-free principles and a deep respect for the emotional lives and agency of dogs and their humans. Her practice is collaborative and evidence-based, grounded in years of hands-on work across shelter rehabilitation, group classes, and private consultation, and shaped by the influence of her first dog, Bruno.She holds a first-class honours degree in biomedical engineering, with specialty focus on chronic pain, and is completing a master's in clinical animal behaviour at the University of Edinburgh. Her research interests lie in anthrozoology, with a particular focus on how agency, power, and identity intersect in dog training cultures. Drawing on her queer Australian-Chinese identity and performance practice in gender-bending burlesque, Rose contributes an intersectional social science voice to animal behaviour, situating the lived realities of dogs and their people within broader cultural and political contexts.Recent essays include Masculinity, Control, and Colonial Inheritance in 21st Century Dog Training Cultures and Anthropocentrism and the Digital Gaze in Human–Dog Interactions.With a blend of empathy, curiosity, and clinical insight, Rose seeks to reimagine dog training as a space where the agency of both dogs and humans is recognised, negotiated, and celebrated.Valli Fraser-Celin, PhD is an advocate for humane, fear/force-free dog training; she primarily shares her advocacy work through her Instagram account (@thelivesofwilddogs), where she documents life with her dogs, Husk and Sully, while promoting evidence-based approaches to canine welfare and training. Valli holds a PhD in Geography from the University of Guelph, where her doctoral research focused on human–African wild dog conflict and conservation in Botswana. She then completed postdoctoral research in Community Health Sciences at the University of Calgary, where she explored the roles of dogs in Indigenous communities across Canada. Since 2018, she has been working in the equitable access to veterinary care field, primarily in remote, Northern communities across Canada.Her scholarship has examined themes of animal agency and subjectivity, contributing to broader conversations on how human–animal relationships shape both animal welfare and community well-being. She continues to bring this perspective into her applied advocacy, emphasizing the importance of recognizing animals as sentient beings with their own experiences and needs. Through her combined academic background and hands-on experience with companion dogs, Valli bridges the gap between research and everyday practice, working to shift perspectives on how humans understand, care for, and coexist with dogs.Legal Disclaimer: This podcast is intended for educational purposes only and does not constitute advice or professional services by either the host nor any of the guests. Thank you for listening to the Enlightened Pet Behavior Podcast.

Howie, Chief, Browny, and Damo kick things off with their most notable headlines from the week - including an awful Premiership defense, and dog stealing. Browny asks the boys about a situation he encountered on a plane, and Chief gives everyone a Geography quiz - which ends up being VERY one-sided. Super-Producer Herbie takes the team through the perils of modern dating, then they chat about Dylan Moore and Connor MacDonald's Scissor Lift adventure in Arizona - plus a look back at another US misadventure involving Chief. Browny wants everyone to be less angry, Chief rips out some more famous movie monologues, the team share who they'd like for a backyard gig, and Browny seeks to educate about Australia's most common chronic disease in men. Kane Cornes has taken a little swipe at two Huddle members, Hawthorn's Will Day joins the boys as he goes through his injury rehab, Browny has a Top 5 commentator/host cockups, and the boys preview the mouthwatering games on this weekend.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Locations are important in film and can sometimes even be almost a character. This week, we each choose a city and give you five movies we think you should watch to get a feel for the essence of that city.

Guest Tom Reed studied photography at Rutgers while studying Geography.  Ansel Adams, Edgar Payne, and the Hudson River School are major influencers. Zen sensibilities profoundly influence his compositions and writings, as he is a student of Japanese martial arts and aesthetics (chado).  His photographs and writing center on the experience of awe at the sight of a landscape. He hopes this leads to considering nature itself divine and sacred, and that stewardship, rather than the dominant utilitarian view, is the only sane attitude.  Summary In this episode, Jeff speaks with photographer, writer, adventurer, and wellness coach Tom Reed about a life shaped not by financial ambition, but by a deep desire for experience, nature, and meaning. Reed traces this orientation back to formative childhood moments that helped him value independence and authenticity over conventional success. His path led him through geography studies, wilderness work in Alaska, whitewater guiding, sailing, martial arts, and ultimately photography. Reed's artistic philosophy blends influences from Ansel Adams with Japanese aesthetic traditions. His black-and-white landscape photography—especially from Patagonia—aims not to comfort but to evoke awe: the kind of beauty that shocks us into awareness of something greater than ourselves. The conversation explores how skill and serendipity intersect in creative work, the role of mindfulness in perceiving opportunities, and the thread of vitality that connects Reed's diverse pursuits. The discussion also turns to climate change and environmental degradation, with Reed emphasizing acceptance without apathy—a stance rooted in spiritual maturity and non-judgment. Ultimately, Reed's work invites us to reconsider why certain landscapes move us so profoundly—and what that says about our relationship to the natural world. A key reflection Awe is a powerful emotional and spiritual experience that can dissolve ego and reconnect us to something greater.

Here's some real news that will shock the normal people. Scripted world events are happening that the MSM won't touch. Subscribing to rigid ideologies generates worldwide problems. Russia's balancing act on energy is looking shaky. They lose, we don't. Eurasian struggles occur over power issues. Control the tap and call the shots. The huge geopolitical lessons of the day. Real wars occur that aren't on TV. The geographic chessboard is real. Let's start with the recent history of Yugoslavia. It got help in falling apart. Regional power struggles in action. Find fault lines and wire them to explode. History's extraordinary ironies are showing. The Ottoman Empire represented the beating heart of Islam. Turkey created Sharia law. Yes, our intel people were involved. No American citizens are dying for Israel. Geography provides unreal dynamics, and genocide. Cyprus was always screwed. The world's throat is the Bosporus Straight. Who are the new Ottomans? Erdogan is playing big cards. China's Belt and Road project produces political pressures. We needed Turkey, so that changed NATO's game. Don't forget the Saudi Turkey shadow war to control Sunni Islam. For those understanding the puzzle, the pieces are fitting together in an alarming way.

Eat Train Prosper 210 is about your environment. And how your environment is either working for you or against you. This week we get into why willpower is largely a losing strategy and how a well-designed environment removes the need for it. We cover ambition contagion, the real cost of where you live and those around you. And why the gym you choose matters more than most people think. If you're constantly fighting yourself to stay consistent, changing your environment might be the actual variable to change the tide in your favor.Timestamps:00:00 Episode Introduction and Personal Updates 09:58 Impact of Environment on Personal Development18:31 Optimizing Productivity Through Environment19:01 The Role of Geography in Life Choices30:27 The Impact of Environment on Goals34:08 Household Challenges in Health and Fitness45:03 Choosing the Right Gym for Success55:33 Balancing Convenience and Motivation in Training Work 1:1 with Aaron ⬇️https://strakernutritionco.com/nutrition-coaching-apply-now/Done For You Client Check-In System for Coaches ⬇️https://strakernutritionco.com/macronutrient-reporting-check-in-template/Paragon Training Methods Programming ⬇️https://paragontrainingmethods.comFollow Bryan's Evolved Training Systems Programming ⬇️https://evolvedtrainingsystems.comFind Us on Social Media ⬇️IG | @Eat.Train.ProsperIG | @bryanboorsteinIG | @aaron_strakerYT | EAT TRAIN PROSPER PODCAST

For complete Medicare guidance, dial 580-308-0975 to speak with my trusted partner, Chapter, or go to https://askchapter.org/oconnor Secretary of State Marco Rubio lit up the Munich Security Conference — and the elites couldn’t stand it. Rubio delivered a bold, America First defense of Western civilization, sovereignty, energy independence, and secure borders… and European leaders gave him a standing ovation. Meanwhile, AOC completely melted down, launching into a bizarre rant packed with geography fails, “Western culture” sneers, and pure word-salad Marxist spin. Why did the networks barely cover it? Because the message was pro-America — and it landed.

In this interview, Clay and Melissa talk to husband and wife biologists Colleen and Ian Cole about their respective careers as land stewards and conservation program managers. Both have been working in Hawaiʻi for 25+ years; Ian as a forester and now Wildlife Biologist for the Hawaiʻi Island's Division of Forestry and Wildlife, and Colleen as a land manager for the Three Mountain Alliance and now as a biologist with the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. Colleen and Ian speak to the hard work of managing land and people which sometimes equates to small victories over time. They tell us about forging alliances between land owners, hunters, conservationists and biologists and how these experiences bring both unique challenges and lasting rewards.

Send a textHealthcare access is often treated as a technology problem, but the real barriers run much deeper. Geography, cost, culture, trust, and digital readiness all shape whether patients can actually get the care they need. Without addressing the system as a whole, even the most advanced tools risk leaving people behind.Sarah Matt, Author of The Borderless Healthcare Revolution, joins the HealthBiz Podcast to discuss what it truly takes to break down geographic barriers in healthcare, why access must be designed into systems from the start, and how technology can support care without replacing the human connection at its core.

PREVIEW: Bridget Toomey discusses the resilience of the Houthis in Yemen following the end of active campaigns in Gaza. She explains that the Houthis are difficult to target due to their mountainous geography and their status as both an Iranian proxy and an indigenous movement. While Israeli strikes successfully targeted some political leadership, Toomey notes that the group has largely recovered and replaced those figures, though they have become significantly more paranoid and repressive internally as a result.1800 YEMEN

In this eye-opening conversation, Aaron sits down with economic historian Chris Bream, author of Beyond Steel: Pittsburgh and the Economics of Transformation to unpack one of the most dramatic industrial collapses in American history — and what it reveals about the future of cities, regions, and the country.Pittsburgh went from being the steel capital of the world to losing hundreds of thousands of jobs and people in just a few brutal years in the early 1980s. Chris explains why the collapse was so sudden and so total, how generations of warnings were ignored, and how Pittsburgh eventually began to rebuild around talent, education, and knowledge industries.This is far more than local history — it's a powerful case study in economic denial, disruptive change, identity tied to work, and what successful regional adaptation actually looks like in the 21st century.CHAPTERS:(0:00 Introduction)(0:59 Why Pittsburgh became the steel capital of the world ) (3:24 Geography, coal, rivers, and Andrew Carnegie's real role ) (5:18 How steel came to dominate and displace every other industry)  (7:54 Steel wasn't just jobs — it became Pittsburgh's entire identity ) (10:03 The shocking speed of the 1980s collapse — what really happened ) (13:21 Paul Volcker, 21% interest rates, and the Rust Belt reckoning ) (15:21 Warnings ignored for decades: reports from the 1940s, 1960s, and earlier) (19:24 Why temporary booms kept postponing the inevitable day of reckoning ) (23:27 Denial, hubris, and the human cost of believing “it will never end” ) (27:14 How Pittsburgh actually recovered — the real story ) (29:47 The roots of the knowledge economy go back decades before the crash ) (31:20 Lessons for the rest of America: what declining regions can, and can't, do ) (33:52 Rethinking success in places that won't grow anymore ) CHRIS BRIEM LINKS:

I want to make sure everyone reads that title correctly. I didn't say "learn" about geography because what Doug and Strickland talk about shows more of their lack of geographic knowledge, not a dearth of it. Nobody ever said they were experts!

Imagine flying all the way to Davos just to fail a fourth-grade map quiz on a global stage. Stephanie Miller breaks down the "ice-cold" confusion between Greenland and Iceland, because apparently, when you're at the World Economic Forum, facts are just optional accessories. Beyond the topographical mishaps, the team digs into the increasingly shaky state of President Trump's cognitive fitness and what these "senior moments" actually mean for immigration policy and our standing with the rest of the planet.
