[26:57] Yoga is something in the past this podcast host (Greg Gazin) would have never considered. The way it's portrayed, it conjures up images of slim fit women who contort themselves into pretzels. But now I truly think different. I realize that Yoga is really for everybody. In fact I now practice it weekly and it's been transformational in terms of my well being. In today's episode we speak with Sharon McMullan-Baron, a yoga instructor but also a cancer survivor who I met through Wellspring Alberta.   Sharon's motto is: Remember to Live Simply, Speak Kindly, Care Deeply and Love Generously - and in this light-hearted episode, Sharon generously shares a little about her inspiring journey, how she discovered Yoga, what it has done for her and what it can do for you so you can take leadership of your mind, body and soul - regardless of age, gender or physical condition. Sharon dispels some of the myths about Yoga - how easy it is for anyone to do and how it's more than just a series of body movements. We learn about Wellspring - a no-cost, donor-funded, registered charity, community-based non-medical centre of support for cancer. Wellspring Alberta in Edmonton is where Sharon delivers her classes and has been instrumental in bringing her Yoga Thrive for cancer patients program to help them and their caregivers through challenging times. You'll also hear about how you can get started practising Yoga. Sharon shares resources - books, videos, names of people she admires in the Yoga world so you can check them out. . We also get a little hands-on Yoga practise you can do in real time while you are listening to the episode.   Resources mentioned: Wellspring Alberta and Wellspring (National) Book: Meditations from the Mat - Daily reflections on the Path of Yoga - Rolf gates and Katrina Kenison. Companion book : Meditations on Intention and Being - daily reflections on the path of Yoga, Mindfulness and Compassion by Rolf Gates Yoga teachers: Peggy Cappy - PBS programs for USA listeners, videos and books Susi Hately - Co-creator of Yoga Thrive - the hatha and restorative yoga program for those touched by cancer. Her website Functional Synergy has many resources. Yoga sutras by Patanjali. About Sharon Sharon McMullan-Baron has been teaching Yoga since 2009 focussing in the areas of Restorative Yoga and Hatha Yoga. Her certifications include Hatha Yoga, Yoga for the Low Back, Yoga Thrive for Cancer Patients, Healthy Breast, Tru North (a prostate cancer programme) Relax and Renew and more.  A cancer survivor herself, diagnosed in 2006, Sharon was instrumental in bringing, Yoga Thrive for cancer patients to the Cross Cancer Institute in Edmonton in 2010 and to Wellspring Edmonton when it opened its doors  Sharon strives to keep a balanced approach to every day.  When she's not on her mat, her survivorship includes a dedication to family and friends, extensive volunteer work, athletic, artistic and creative pursuits which may include wordsmithing poems and stories or playing with fabrics, creating quilts and other textile treasures. You can catch her on the bicycle or XC  ski trails, or out with her dog, if you can! Sharon lives in Edmonton, Alberta Canada and can be reached via email or via LinkedIn.

[35:25] In this episode speak with Matt Abrahams—a return guest and a name synonymous with spontaneous speaking - about mastering the art of speaking on the fly. This is a special cross-over companion podcast to The Toastmasters Podcast with Greg Gazin & Ryan Levesque #235: Think Faster, Talk Smarter in the Moment with guest Matt Abrahams. We're also thrilled to have Ryan Levesque also co-hosting today's episode. Today's episode Today we dive a little deeper into the concepts in Matt's book. He starts off by sharing what it's about and how you can use it. Matt explains why there's no right or wrong way to communicate–only better and worse ways. He demystifies a cognitive psychology concept of heuristics and explains their importance.  Matt suggests a helpful reframing of speaking opportunities as “Conversations, Not Performances.” He touches upon how improv has shaped his approach to communication and introduces us to the playfully-named “F-Word of Public Speaking.”  Matt offers additional examples of structures you can use to master your Q&A session, gives an easy-to-use format for apologizing successfully, and more. Sorry about that! :) Matt Abrahams is a Lecturer at Stanford University's Graduate School of Business. He's the author of two books, Speaking Up Without Freaking Out, and his brand new book, Think Faster, Talk Smarter: How to Speak Successfully When You're Put on the Spot, and the host of Think Fast, Talk Smart: The Podcast.  You can reach Matt and get his book at MattAbrahams.com.

[18:33] Milestones are achieved and celebrated every day and recognized in a variety of different ways. Celebrations are also often backward looking going back to where one once was to where they are now. But what if you commemorated by celebrating forward? Using the milestone as a way of encouraging a future activity. In this episode we look at the milestone of 200th episode of the Toastmasters Podcast and how instead of looking back at the first 200 episodes as many do, the hosts Greg Gazin and Ryan Levesque decided to create a contest - a Pitch Us Your Podcast Idea! contest.  The idea would be to create more buzz around podcasting and encourage members to give it a try. Members could submit their most creative idea - a pitch and an audio sample and they did not have to have an existing podcast.  The winner would be announced and  be a guest on Episode #200 where they could introduce themselves to the world and pitch their idea to Greg and Ryan.  When the dust settled, the winner was Rashmi Ketha from Ledgewood NJ, USA  with “The Experience Passport.” Personal development through hobby sampling. You can catch the 200th episode - shown above at ToastmastersPodcast.com, and Apple & Google Podcasts.  Also, if you want to find out a little more about the Toastmasters Podcast and its hosts, please check out: Tune In to The Toastmasters Podcast, in the March 2022 on-line issue of the Toastmaster Magazine.

More importantly they be can productive in achieving the goals of the organization and add value to the teams. And you might even be thanked for running a meeting. You'll learn about the importance of planning, executing and setting expectations up front - and even determining whether there is an alternative to holding a meeting.  You'll hear how to invoke emotion by leveraging meeting invites and making agendas valuable and how the information, emotion and actions are the three important key elements of any communication.   This includes the importance of paraphrasing and how that leads to better communication and boost engagement during the meeting.  He also stresses the value of focusing on the experience and the creative order of things and not just the content and also using physical engagement and leveraging the use of technology tools and more. Matt also touches on how to ensure the new way of running meetings endures and tips for running virtual meetings. And finally, Matt talks about his new podcast, Think Fast Talk Smart from Stanford GSB. Matt Abrahams teaches Strategic Communication for Stanford University's Graduate School of Business and Presentation Skills for Stanford's Continuing Studies Program and co-founder of coaching consulting practice Bold Echo Communication Solutions.

[11:39] For a dedicated athlete or fit individual, walking a minimum of 10k steps a day for almost three years might seem like nothing. For me, a few decades older with ancient injuries walking roughly seven to eight kilometres a day that seems more like a pipe dream. Amazingly, I did it. I never thought I could.  In this episode, I share a little about my journey and how beyond the usual benefits of exercise the experience was transformational; I learned new things - many about myself. The text version of this podcast is entitled “What I learned from a Journey of over 11 million steps.”  There’s also an earlier related article, “One step at a time: a simple solution to a better life.”  The companion podcast is Toastcaster Episode: 90. Articles can be found at Troy Media.com Note: The photo shows me as I reached the 1000-day milestone. As I recorded this podcast 70 days later I had reached 12.3 million steps.  Sadly as I publish this podcast my journey has come to an end as a time slot has come up for my long awaited and overdue hernia operation.  But I will start again and learn many new things.
