In this episode of The Edible Valley Podcast, hosts Chef Jonathan Frazier and William McStringer explore the vibrant food culture of Vancouver Island through the lens of community and collaboration. Jonathan, in his role as president of the North Vancouver Island Culinary Association (NVICA), discusses the association's mission to unite chefs, cooks, culinary students, and food producers in advancing the culinary arts across the region. The conversation dives into how NVICA promotes professional growth, champions local products, and supports signature events like Food Day Canada. From organizing skill-building workshops to creating mentorship opportunities for emerging talent, the association plays a pivotal role in both preserving culinary traditions and encouraging innovation in the kitchen. As always, the Edible Valley Podcast serves as a storytelling hub, giving voice to farmers, fishers, food artisans, and restaurateurs whose work defines Vancouver Island's unique food identity. Jonathan and William share how these stories inspire greater community engagement and how listeners can get involved—whether by joining NVICA, attending local food festivals, or simply supporting island-grown products. This episode is a celebration of connection, passion, and the shared commitment to keeping Vancouver Island's culinary culture thriving for generations to come. #EdibleValley, #NVICA, #FoodDayCanada, #CulinaryCommunity, #CF, #ChefFrazier, #WACS, #WorldChefs, #CulinaryFederation, #ChefLife, #CulinaryArts, #SupportLocal, #FarmToTable, #Foodie, #Podcast, #NewPodcast, #ListenNow, #ChefsOfInstagram, #EatLocal, #LocalFoodLove, #Gastronomy

Jeremy Shaw Towards Logarithmic Delay 29.5. – 31.8.2025 The exhibition Towards Logarithmic Delay presents three new sculptural works that engage with the concept of border zones and the disorientation brought about by the dissolution of spatial and perceptual thresholds. The first work visitors encounter, Maximum Horizon (2024), comprises a triptych of stained-glass windows – akin to those commonly seen in churches and other places of worship – that are set into one of a number of a raw, unfinished drywalls that reappear throughout the exhibition.

North Bay Resources CEO Jared Lazerson joined Steve Darling from Proactive to announce a new assay result of 0.5 ounces per ton (14 g/t) gold from a massive sulphide outcrop located near Trench B at the company's Fran Gold Project in British Columbia. The gold-bearing zone—measuring approximately 30 meters north-south by 40 meters east-west with a depth exceeding 4 meters—adds further support to the project's bulk tonnage potential. The 5-pound sample was processed by fire assay with atomic absorption at ALS Global in North Vancouver. Lazerson stated that, following the recent identification of a significant bulk tonnage gold deposit and its corresponding resource estimate, the company is moving forward with a dual-track development strategy. This includes using high-grade surface oxide material as feedstock for its Bishop Gold Mill, while also advancing exploration in the infill area between the Main Bullion Alley Zone, East Zone, and the re-established Hilltop (South) Zone. To support the project's next stage, North Bay has begun consulting with a mine engineering firm to evaluate the detailed economics, mine planning, and construction for the bulk tonnage deposit. Lazerson pointed out that comparable mining costs at the nearby Blackwater Gold Mine are around $9 per tonne processed, while the Fran deposit hosts approximately 20 million tonnes grading 0.5 g/t Au (valued at $54/tonne) and 44 million tonnes at 0.3 g/t Au ($32/tonne), underscoring promising economics. The company sees this dual approach as a pathway to near-term production while continuing to expand and de-risk the Fran Gold Project through targeted exploration. #proactiveinvestors #northbayresourcesinc #otc #nbri #PlatinumConcentrate #NorthBayResources #MiningNews #CaliforniaGold #JaredLazerson #GoldRush #ProactiveInvestors #PreciousMetals #MiningUpdates ---#invest #investing #investment #investor #stockmarket #stocks #stock #stockmarketnews #PreciousMetals #BulkSampling #DualTrackStrategy #GoldProduction

How do our human needs affect our judgement? What happens fro our decision making if our needs are not being met?Using Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs, Bruce Wilson joins Chris and Jordy to discuss the relationship between needs and judgment.Bruce Wilson is an ACMG Hiking Guide, a sea kayak guide and guide trainer for the Association of Sea Kayak Guides. He is an avalanche educator for the Canadian Avalanche Association.Bruce is a certified instructor in the Wim Hof Method, he has a master's degree in leadership, and is a Vision Quest instructor, just to name a few of his many qualifications and certifications.Bruce currently instructs the Outdoor Recreation Management Program at Capilano University in North Vancouver. He also provides coaching and guiding through his company Warrior Wolf Guide Services and Coaching and teaches avalanche and survival courses for Canada West Mountain School.In this episode of Delivering Adventure, Bruce walks us through the intricacies of how needs affect judgment using real life stories and examples. This is a thoughtful and engaging conversation that ends with a look at how some First Nations peoples have prioritized human needs in relation to how we contribute within a community.Key TakeawaysHow do our needs affect our judgement?Needs Checklist: Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs works like a checklist that we can use to help us to identify where people are at and what needs to happen to enable them to reach their full potential.Psychological and Physiological Needs: When these needs are not being met, our entire focus can become consumed trying to meet them. This can cause us to develop tunnel vision as we work to get warmer or more comfortable. Being low on energy or being dehydrated can also erode our ability to collect and analyze information accurately.Safety and Security Needs: Our risk tolerance can cause us to perceive the risk around us in ways that are not accurate. If we do not feel that we are in a physically or psychological safe space, we are more likely to ignore our other needs like feeling connected socially to a group.Communicating Risk to Others: It's important to ensure that we are using language and framing information in a way that allows our audience to understand the risk accurately. This can help to improve their ability to make more informed choices.Love and Belonging Needs: People inherently want to feel that they are a part of the group. If they do not feel they belong to the group, they are more likely to make decisions that cause them to behave in a way where they are trying to increase their popularity. This can cause people to become manipulative or to undertake other attention seeking behaviours.Esteem Needs: If our esteem needs are not met, we are going to feel that we are not respected, and we may be less likely to trust others. When esteem needs are not met, we can start to develop self doubt. This can lead to us to second guess our choices. If our confidence is being eroded, it will directly undermine our competence.Self-Actualized Decision Making: This is when we can make reasoned and objective decisions by being open to the fact that we may not know everything. When we are self actualized, we are aware that we may not have all the answers and instead of having this undermine our confidence, it actually increases it.Guest BioWhen it comes to outdoor education and leadership training, Bruce is literally a Jack of all trades. Bruce is an ACMG Hiking Guide. He is a sea kayak guide and guide trainer for the Association of Sea Kayak Guides.

A fourth-generation pâtissier, Thomas Haas was first introduced to the delicate art of hand-crafting chocolates and pastries in the kitchen of Cafe Konditorei Haas, opened by his great-grandfather in the Black Forest region of Aichhalden, Germany, in 1918. Thomas carried the torch and continued his family's long-standing tradition, apprenticing and working with top chefs in Michelin-starred restaurants across Europe en route to earning his stripes as Konditormeister, or Master Pastry Chef.  In 1995, Thomas was lured to Vancouver to take the role of Executive Pastry Chef at the Four Seasons Hotel, where he met his wife Lisa and twice placed in the top-three in the prestigious annual North American Pastry Chef of the Year competition in New York City. Thomas took an even larger bite of the Big Apple in 1998, when he moved to New York, and as Executive Pastry Chef, helped famed restaurateur and chef Daniel Boulud launch his flagship eatery, Daniel, in Manhattan's Upper East Side. During his time in Gotham, Thomas was singled out as one of the Top Ten Pastry Chefs in America by Chocolatier and Pastry Art & Design magazines and saw his star further rise when he made several appearances on Martha Stewart Living, and other international television shows. Today, Thomas and his wife Lisa own and operate Thomas Haas Chocolates & Patisserie in North Vancouver and the Kitsilano section of Vancouver in British Columbia, Canada. Instagram: @thaaschocolates Website: www.thomashaas.com In this episode we discuss how Thomas fared: Growing up in Germany as part of a pastry and baking dynasty Surviving an apprenticeship with a “crazy genius” pastry chef Honing his skills at a five-star property in Davos and a Michelin one-star restaurant in St. Moritz Fulfilling a dream by moving to the U.S. Snagging the job of a lifetime: Executive Pastry Chef at Daniel in NYC Learning lessons from Chef Daniel Boulud Opening his own business in Vancouver, Canada And much more!

Cretaceous Capilano Fossil Field Trip — From downtown Vancouver, drive north through Stanley Park and over the Lion's Gate Bridge. Take the North Vancouver exit toward the ferries. Turn right onto Taylor Way and then right again at Clyde Avenue. Look for the Park Royal Hotel. Park anywhere along Clyde Avenue.From Clyde Avenue walk down the path to your left towards the Capilano River. Watch the water level and tread cautiously as it can be slippery if there has been any recent rain. Look for beds of sandstone about 200 meters north of the private bridge and just south of the Highway bridge. The fossil beds are just below the Whytecliff Apartment high rises. Be mindful of high water and slippery rocks.For more geeky goodness visit Fossil Huntress HQ at www.fossilhuntress.com

In this episode, we're talking about a dynamic that (dare we say) all therapists are familiar with: working with clients who over-intellectualize. We explore why some clients show up to therapy in their heads while disconnected to their bodies and emotions, and how intellectualizing is both foundational and a block to good therapeutic work.We talk about the common pitfalls therapists fall into, especially when it feels satisfying or productive to stay in the intellectual space. We also discuss how to recognize when intellectualizing is happening (it's not always obvious!) and how to meet clients where they are, including those who are clear they don't want to feel in their body.Whether you love working with analytical clients or find yourself in the constant push-pull of trying to get them to actually sit with their feelings, this episode offers practical reflections on how to deepen the work with these folks.Join us on April 26, 2025 in North Vancouver for a day of Immersive Group Clinical Consultation.

Social media is one of the most impactful frontiers for therapists right now. So many questions are coming up for therapists at this time-- should I have social media at all? Should I market on social media? How much is too much to share? The internet is forever - what does that mean for me putting parts of my life online?In this episode, we discuss showing up on social media as a therapist, the various ways it can be done (to market, to share information, to allow the public to see behind the mystery), and how we navigate showing up in such public spaces.Join us on April 26, 2025 in North Vancouver for a day of Immersive Group Clinical Consultation.

Supervision and consultation are a core part of being a therapist, whether in practicum, newly graduated, or a decade into practice (and beyond).In this episode, we discuss how to get the most out of supervision, like bringing a list, not fixating on every misstep, and sharing the messy parts of your work, ensuring that any supervision conversations are intentional, useful, and ultimately helpful for you to become a better clinician.And yep, we also talk about how some supervisors are just not very good. Some supervisory experiences include a harmful abuse of power.

Trends in the therapy world come and go. Girl-bossing, therapists-as-content-creators, and now “the cool therapist”. Maybe you've seen the same “cool therapist” stuff we have - acting like new therapists are scared of everything, making skits or memes about disregarding ethical considerations, and acting like following thoughtful rules is somehow stuffy! If you've listened to the podcast for a while, you know that we think some therapy standards ARE outdated and stuffy. We are very critical of the expectations around professionalism ,but we also have a deep respect for the importance of ethical policies. We're uncomfortable with the idea of prioritizing being “cool” over being reflective about the impact of our actions on clients.We don't think every single interaction has to be analyzed (sometimes accepting a coffee from a client really isn't a big deal ), but there's value in nuance that can be missed in the social media space. We also wonder how much this content is mostly about getting views (rage-bait ) and doesn't show the reality of working with clients.We are responding to what we've noticed and wondering what all of you think! Have you noticed the “cool therapist” content out in the world? What does it bring up for you?Join us on April 26, 2025 in North Vancouver for a day of Immersive Group Clinical Consultation. This is a chance for us to get into the details of clinical work and talk about actual therapy with clients. There are only 10 spaces available, so if you are interested, send us an email at connect@edgeofthecouch.com before space runs out!

You've got IBS. And you don't want to live a life of restrictive eating. What do you do? Well, in today's episode two dietitians with IBS-D are going to share what they know to help you enjoy what you're eating and feel your absolute best. Sometimes, eating with irritable bowel syndrome is like playing the slots: you never know what's going to pop up next. Maybe you've been doing well on a low FODMAP diet but all of a sudden your symptoms crop up again….with zero changes to your diet. Or, maybe you can't seem to figure out which foods are causing issues because sometimes you get symptoms and sometimes you don't…with the same food!Which is why I'm chatting with⁠Jessica Roocroft⁠, a dietitian who's an expert in caring for the different subtypes of irritable bowel syndrome and also somewhat unique in her practice because her programs include gut-directed hypnotherapy as a way to help symptoms reside with as few dietary restrictions as possible.We're going to chat about how nutrition influences IBS…and also why foods aren't necessarily causing your symptoms. They may in fact just be exacerbating the symptoms caused by something else entirely. We're going to talk about the gut brain connection so you understand its impact on digestive health, totally free of the psuedoscience you usually see on social media. Jess shares a wealth of very specific and detailed information on tools and practices that might help you get your symptoms under control so you can actually enjoy food again and learn to live a less restrictive and more enjoyable food life. About Jessica Roocroft RD:Jessica Roocroft (just call her Jess) is a Registered Dietitian from North Vancouver, BC who owns and operates an Irritable Bowel Syndrome-focused private practice. Most importantly, she knows first-hand what it's like to deal with gut drama due to IBS-D.
