Podcasts about Nica

Nica Quinn - horsewoman, artist, and channel - returns to the Being Herd podcast! This time the conversation flows in a slightly different direction as Nica shares with us where she is on her journey of website creation and how she sees the building of worlds to be a contributing factor to shifting the equine industry into a more healing and harmonious place. We discuss the power of sharing our unique gifts with the world, the importance of leaning into sensitivity and how the internet in general is a reflection and bridge within layers of our human consciousness, in a similar way to how the horses hold space for us to 'come online' to who we are. Enjoy and thank you for listening!Connect with Nica Quinn:Website: https://nicadrawsnature.com/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/nica_draws_nature/?hl=en

Grocery Shopping, Marquesas-style. Here are three  things to know about restocking your food supply in the Marquesas. Summary Before we arrived in the Marquesas, I worried about the ease of provisioning groceries. Yes, everyone eats everywhere. However, I had heard that stores were mostly nonexistent, had few items available, and what was found would be expensive. What was the reality? First, you'll find three types of "stores": magasins (small, department-store-ish businesses), green markets, and locals selling affordable produce from their gardens. Second, we found most of what we needed. We had heard that black beans were hard to find, so we stocked up in Panama, as we eat them frequently. But everything we looked for, we found. And finally, necessities (like flour, canned vegetables, and some meats) were subsidized by the French government to make them affordable. You can find them by looking for red tags. These appear either on the item or the shelf. Bottom line? While costs for many items were higher than we're used to in the United States and Canada, the availability of produce from local sellers and subsidized groceries makes provisioning manageable.

We live in a world that glorifies hustle, high performance, and constant doing. We rarely pause to ask what truly drives us or what it might cost to keep going without pause. Success demands work, but what if it's not always about pushing harder? While it might not sound like it, slowing down, looking inward, and rediscovering your purpose can redefine your performance and growth.In this powerful episode of The Happiness Squad Podcast, Ashish Kothari sits down with Alison Tetrick to explore what it really means to find joy, purpose, and performance—on and off the bike.Alison Tetrick is the President and Co-Founder of Saga Ventures, an entrepreneur and former professional cyclist and World Championship medalist known for her bold leadership and storytelling. With a background in science and a master's in psychology, she brings a unique blend of athletic grit, strategic thinking, and purpose-driven advocacy to everything she does.From her beginnings on a California cattle ranch to racing at the highest levels of sport, Alison opens up about how she navigated identity shifts, rediscovered joy through gravel racing, and now helps others—especially women—find their footing through grit, grace, and community.Here are the things you will learn in this episode:• Redefining peak performance as alignment of mind, body, and spirit—not just output.• Creating space for curiosity as a nonjudgmental leadership superpower.• Knowing when to push and when to pause: the real power of grit and grace.• Shifting focus from results to effort to build resilient, motivated teams.With stories that span from Olympic training centers to launching bandana-funded scholarships for girls in sport, Alison reminds us that success isn't always about pushing harder. Sometimes, it's about pulling back, staying grounded, and listening to what makes your heart flutter.Get ready to feel inspired!

Distilling a 4200-mile Pacific passage into memorable sound bites isn't easy. But certain experiences definitely stand out. Here are some favorite moments from our 33 days at sea. Summary  Sitting in a rolling anchorage is a great time to review Pacific passage highlights. After 32 days at sea and 8 hours heaving to so we could anchor during daylight there are so many epic experiences to reflect on. On our passage, I wrote daily emails. Follow the link below for access to all of them. They include observations of conditions and the moon and stars. But here, I'm just focusing on the highlights. One major highlight was crossing the Equator. Why should crossing an imaginary line feel so momentous? I don't know. But talking to other cruisers, I know we're not alone.  We also saw an epic pod of commuting dolphins. I say commuting because they didn't play in the bow but kept moving. Other wildlife included a visiting bird, determined to be a swallowtail gull.  Near the equator, the moon rises as the sun is setting. So we could see the sun going down over our bow as the moon rose over our transom.  Before the seas became rough, we caught a large mahi-mahi that kept us fed for two days.  While not a highlight, the chafe of our main halyard added some excitement to the passage. Using the topping lift to carry the main was a temporary fix until we used it as a messenger line to secure a replacement halyard.  Other highlights included ticking off milestones--our first 1000 miles and crossing the equator. I enjoyed watching our self-steering unit (we called it Larry) do its work.  Of course, even routines are momentous underway, including our traditional Sunday pancake breakfast. With 30 knots of wind, it was exciting. But it was a good reminder of how we're adjusting our ideas about acceptable conditions.  We completed our passage of over 3000 miles at 5.5 knots on average, faster than many cruisers on boats longer than our 28-foot Calypso. In the end, we were generally comfortable, ate well, and got enough rest. I hope to see you in an anchorage. Look for Calypso. And check out the links to find pictures and more details of our passage.

Provisioning for a long passage is only one thing you have to do before setting out for distant shores. It's even more difficult when you're doing it in somewhere that's new to you. Here's how we managed the task on a 4-day timeline.  Summary We thought we had plenty of time to leisurely provision our boat before leaving for French Polynesia. We could focus on other boat tasks in the meantime. But receiving a visa ahead of time meant we had to get moving.  So, how do you provision for a long passage on a short timeline? And especially when it's in a place you're unfamiliar with? Although this wasn't a new activity, the short time meant efficiency trumped budget. We did not have time to travel all over the city to buy beans for ten cents less a can.  What helped me stay organized? Making a list focused on our needs for the passage and what would be expensive at our destination. Using the Internet to decide where to shop--would they have what we needed to be worth the trip? Keeping in mind how much we could carry at a time. And finally, buying fresh items last. I can't say I wasn't frazzled. But I got the job done. And in the time available.  Links (Amazon links are affiliate links, meaning that The Boat Galley Podcast earns from qualifying purchases; some other links may be affiliate links): Provisioning Course - https://products.theboatgalley.com/products/provisioning-meal-planning-and-food-storage The Boat Galley Website - https://theboatgalley.com Nica email - nica@fit2sail.com Carolyn email - carolyn@theboatgalley.com Subscribe to the Boat Galley Newsletter! - https://theboatgalley.com/newsletter-signup-2 Click to see all podcast sponsors, past and present. - https://bit.ly/3idXto7 Music: “Slow Down” by Yvette Craig

What are the food logistics for a Panama Canal transit? With the potential for an expensive food delivery bill on the line, we give you the best tips to avoid a real budget buster.  Summary When we hired an agent to help us navigate our transit through the Panama Canal, we got a lot of answers. But the requirements for feeding the advisor who boarded to help us through the locks were vague. And we found little information on blogs and websites by fellow cruisers. So these are the requirements for ensuring the advisor's comfort. And how we dealt with them. You must provide for the comfort of your advisor. This includes the availability of shade, a toilet, sealed water bottles, and hot meals. In addition, your advisor can arrange food delivery if they are dissatisfied with your offerings.  The key was to prepare ahead as much as possible and to be flexible. I recommend offering options to the advisor. And, of course, snacks and coffee are always welcome.  The podcast offers more details of how we managed to feed the agent during our canal transit.

What are the food logistics for a Panama Canal transit? With the potential for an expensive food delivery bill on the line, we give you the best tips to avoid a real budget buster.  Summary When we hired an agent to help us navigate our transit through the Panama Canal, we got a lot of answers. But the requirements for feeding the advisor who boarded to help us through the locks were vague. And we found little information on blogs and websites by fellow cruisers. So these are the requirements for ensuring the advisor's comfort. And how we dealt with them. You must provide for the comfort of your advisor. This includes the availability of shade, a toilet, sealed water bottles, and hot meals. In addition, your advisor can arrange food delivery if they are dissatisfied with your offerings.  The key was to prepare ahead as much as possible and to be flexible. I recommend offering options to the advisor. And, of course, snacks and coffee are always welcome.  The podcast offers more details of how we managed to feed the agent during our canal transit.

Moving onto a boat is one thing. Starting to cruise is another. And both have steep learning curves. Nica and Carolyn suggest tips for getting out of your comfort zone when making these big life changes.  Summary Moving onto a boat and beginning cruising has a steep learning curve. It's not just beaches and cocktails. The challenges of living on a boat include adapting to small spaces, difficult storage options, lack of climate control, and providing your own electricity and water. So how do you cope?  Admit that you feel uncomfortable Find support from others Break learning into small steps by figuring out living on a boat in a marina before setting off One piece of advice from fellow cruiser and Boat Galley team member Katherine Gonzalez is to consider which of your land-based talents will benefit you in the new setting aboard. By breaking the learning into manageable steps and relying on the great cruising community, you'll enlarge your comfort zone in no time.  Links (Amazon links are affiliate links, meaning that The Boat Galley Podcast earns from qualifying purchases; some other links may be affiliate links): The Co-Captain's Log by Katherine Gonzalez (Amazon) - https://amzn.to/3DrtxiK The Boat Galley - https://theboatgalley.com  Nica email - nica@fit2sail.com Carolyn email - carolyn@theboatgalley.com Subscribe to the Boat Galley Newsletter! - https://theboatgalley.com/newsletter-signup-2 Today's episode of The Boat Galley Podcast is sponsored by MantusMarine.com, maker of the Mantus anchor, now available in models with and without a roll bar.

Taking a 28' sailboat from the Atlantic to the Pacific takes some doing! Nica gives the first hand account transiting the Panama Canal, one of the world's most iconic waterways. Summary Yes, transiting the Panama Canal in a small sailboat involves logistics, paperwork, and lots of money. But it's also a unique visual and emotional experience. Completing the arrangements for a transit as an individual is easier now than it was a few years ago. The canal authority, for example, now accepts electronic payments. And no longer sends an agent out to measure your boat. Even so, we opted to hire an agent to make the process smoother for us. And we're convinced it was a good choice. Just renting the necessary lines and fenders removed a great deal of stress from the process.  We did a two-day passage paired with another pleasure craft and a commercial vessel. And the expererience, the history, and the lush views made it an event we'll never forget.

Send us a textIn this episode, we're thrilled to welcome Amanda Carey, President of the National Interscholastic Cycling Association (NICA), to explore the powerful ways NICA and local bike retailers can work together to inspire and support the next generation of cyclists.NICA's programs are bringing thousands of youth into the sport, and this conversation will give bike shop owners a deeper understanding of how they can join this movement to grow ridership, drive in-store traffic, and build loyal relationships with young riders and their families.Support the show

Send us a textOver the holidays, we're bringing back our top 5 episodes of 2024, that we think deserve another listen. One of our most downloaded this year was our chat with professional cyclist Anna Yamauchi about her first season on the Grand Prix, navigating a Celiac diagnosis, and what excites her about her sport. Anna is such an exciting athlete to watch for 2025! We'll be back January 7 with all new episodes!Growing up in the mountains of Truckee, CA, time in the outdoors has always been central to Anna's life. As a former competitive skier, Anna also dabbled in multiple sports, playing 8 varsity highschool sports. Amongst all this, bikes have always been a part of Anna's life. In highschool she participated in a year of NICA racing, and would often ride bikes with family. But It wasn't really until the fall of 2021, with COVID lockdown and a long bike packing trip, that Anna began gravitating toward racing. In just a few years she's climbed the ranks of the pro field and is now a full time racer participating in the Lifetime Grand Prix and other Marathon MTB and gravel races. Please note that this podcast is created strictly for educational purposes and should never be used for medical diagnosis and treatment.***Mentioned:InsideTracker Lab Testing: Use code NUTRITIONALREVOLUTION for 20% off: store.insidetracker.com/nutritionalrevolutionRacing soon?

The USA Women's national mountain bike team is absolutely stacked with talent. This week on we hear from Kristi who had the chance to sit down with two of its up and coming stars while visiting Bentonville this fall. Madigan (Maddie) Munro is a ski racer turned mountain bike phenom from Boulder, CO. She is currently signed with Trek Factory racing and will be making the jump from U23 to Elite on the World Cup circuit in 2025. Sofia Waite, of Golden, CO started her athletic career as a runner but quickly found her way to mountain biking through her local NICA program. Growing up racing against Maddie, Sofia has now signed with BH Coloma and is also racing as a U23 on the UCI Mountain Bike World Cup. The pair talks about the supportive dynamic throughout all of the women on the mountain bike national team, and how they are also becoming role models for the next generation of USA mountain bike athletes. They also fill us in on what life on the world cup circuit is like as they travel the world to race their bikes.

This is my family's first year as part of NICA. (For those that don't know, NICA--aka the National Interscholastic Cycling Association--is an organization that gets middle school and high school kids together in a team environment to ride and race mountain bikes). My husband and I are coaching, and our 6th grade son is a student athlete.In just a few months of being on a team (go Boise Brave!), we caught the NICA bug. It's a fantastic organization that promotes fun, inclusivity, equity, respect, and community! So obviously, I was very excited to sit down with Amanda Carey for this interview. Amanda is the President of NICA (and a fellow Idahoan), a former professional mountain bike racer, and a woman who is making a difference in the lives of kids and in our community. Even if you don't have teenage kids, you'll want to listen to this episode to find out why NICA matters for the bike community and how you can get involved.

WOOWHO!!!! It's Nurses Uncorked one year anniversary! 52 episodes in the can and never missed a single week! While other podcasts often do seasons and reruns, Nurses Uncorked puts out original episodes every week!    In this episode Nurse Jessica and Nurse Erica discuss a controversial new Florida law, SB7016, that allows doctors to perform C-sections outside of hospitals. They are joined by Nurse Jessica's husband, who is an OB-GYN, to provide insights on the topic. The conversation covers the potential risks and complications of performing C-sections outside of hospitals, the requirements for advanced birthing centers, and the impact on access to care in rural areas. The conversation explores the potential impact of advanced birthing centers in Florida, with a focus on the financial incentives for physicians and the potential consequences for patient safety. The discussion touches on topics such as the choice for physicians to practice in these centers, the potential for increased malpractice insurance rates and the role of NICA coverage. The conversation also delves into the staffing and resources needed for these centers and the financial aspects of the legislation. In this final part of the conversation, the nurses discuss the potential challenges and timeline for implementing advanced birthing centers. They also touch on the role of organizations like AHCA in establishing the rules and regulations for these centers. The conversation then shifts to the concerns raised by the Florida Hospital Association and the increased Medicaid payments for maternity care. Nurse Jessica and her husband reflect on their experience working together and the reactions they received from colleagues.   Thank you to our sponsor, Vivian Health!
