Podcasts about ParticipACTION

Born in London Canada in 1949, Jim Chapman has been blessed with a life full of challenge and adventure. He was signed to Columbia Records in New York in 1968, played bass in rockabilly legend Ronnie Hawkins' band and toured across the eastern U.S. and Canada for years fronting several groups of his own.  By 1973 he was the president of a major recording studio (Springfield Sound) where he honed his skills as a songwriter, studio musician and producer. He was also a partner in a successful artist's management company, the owner of a full-service advertising and promotion company, and the founder of London's first successful musical jingle production company.  Health issues forced him to retire from the business world in 1980 and with his new wife Carlyn he went back on the road as an entertainer for much of the decade. The couple later returned to London, built another recording studio, and ran a profitable radio/TV musical jingle company and communications consultancy with clients like Kraft General Foods, Ontario Hydro, ParticipAction, The Ontario Senior Games, The Government of Canada, The Detroit Tigers' London farm team, and many others.  From 1992 until 2012 Jim was a prominent London-based public affairs newspaper and magazine columnist and radio/TV broadcaster. Prior to his retirement in 2017, Jim had also been working as a professional writer and business consultant for more than a decade.  In 1999 he died of a massive heart attack and had what is often referred to as a Near Death Experience Brought back to life in the ER, after a long recovery he wrote two books about the experience and lectured about it across Ontario and as far afield as New York, Dallas, and Seattle. He also appeared on the ABC, CTV, TVO, and Discovery television networks, on the BBC and CBC radio networks, and on dozens of radio stations and podcasts.  In the early 2000s he also returned (from time to time) to his first love, performing as a singer and instrumentalist, headlining a number of concerts as well as performing in several bands. In 2023 he created “The Jim Chapman Show”, a live songs and stories performance geared to Baby Boomers. It was an almost instant success, and Jim has performed it at dozens of venues including concert halls, banquets, churches, private gatherings and Seniors' Homes, with engagements booked into 2025.  In 2024 Jim put together a weekly musical show at London's Unity Centre, and it continues to entertain audiences with performances by top London-area musicians every Wednesday evening.  He has released three albums of original songs and his ninth and latest published book, “Battle Of the Bands” is a combination history of London's music scene in the 50s and 60s and his own sixty-year musical career. Jim's books and CDs are available through The Bookstore, elsewhere on this website.  Jim and Carlyn Chapman have been happily married for 45 years and they share their cosy retirement home with two loveable little dogs, Jo-Jo and Molly, and an elderly gentleman cat named Mr. Punkin.  www.jimchapman.caBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-x-zone-radio-tv-show--1078348/support.

Creating a Company Identity That Transforms Customer Experience  Shep Hyken interviews Laura Richard, Principal at Level5 Strategy and one of the 2023 Woman Leaders in Consulting. She talks about the essence of branding and its role in customer experience, employee engagement, and business growth.  This episode of Amazing Business Radio with Shep Hyken answers the following questions and more:    What is a brand promise?  What is the role of branding in enhancing the customer experience?  How can businesses define their brand to impact customer relationships meaningfully?  How does empowering employees align with a company's brand promise?  Why is it important for employees to share the same values as the brand they work for?  Top Takeaways:    A brand promise is a company's commitment to its customers, defining what they can expect every time they interact with the brand. It is the guiding principle that all the decisions of an organization are centered on.     A brand true to its promise creates value, builds trust, and fosters long-lasting relationships that benefit the customer and bring financial success to the business over time.    Understand what matters most to the customers you want to build a relationship with. Know what they want to get and how they want to feel as a result of engaging with the brand.     In a competitive market, a strong brand sets a company apart from competitors and creates an emotional connection with customers. For example, Nike empowers its customers with the motto "Just Do It," and Patagonia focuses on sustainability.    Employees are essential in upholding the brand promise. When a company clearly defines its brand promise and values, it can attract employees who naturally resonate with those principles.    Companies should identify which touchpoints are "table stakes," meaning basic expectations that must be met, but not necessarily exceeded. They should also focus their resources on the "moments of truth," the interactions that emotionally impact customers and can significantly deepen relationships.     Plus, Shep and Laura discuss how convenience and consistency drive loyalty. Tune in!  Quote:   "When people hear the word brand, they think of the logo, tagline, or marketing campaigns. But a brand truly is the company's identity, the common set of truths the organization needs to deliver to create value for its customers and employees."    About:    Laura Richard is a Principal at Level5 Strategy and one of the 2023 Woman Leaders in Consulting. She is Chair of the Board of ParticipACTION, Canada's leading advocate for physical activity.  Shep Hyken is a customer service and experience expert, New York Times bestselling author, award-winning keynote speaker, and host of Amazing Business Radio.

Jill Wheatley is an athlete and mountain climber currently climbing the world's 14 peaks above 8,000 metres, with only 30% of her vision. In 2014, while teaching a physical education class in Germany, a baseball hit Jill in the side of her head, leaving her with a traumatic brain injury (TBI) that took 70% of her vision and nearly her life. Before the accident, she was an athlete, teacher and coach who ran on trails, cycled and competed in duathlons. “After 26 months in hospitals, I felt lost,” Jill told ParticipACTION. “I emerged from the hospital a completely different person from how I arrived. I lost my eyesight, autonomy, car, apartment, work and residency permit. But one aspect of my life that remained the same was my passion and desire to be outside with Mother Nature.” Jill's long road to recovery has brought her to peaks like K2 and the only Canadian female to summit 6 mountains above 8,000 metres. She aims to break down the stigma associated with traumatic brain injury, vision loss, and eating disorders. Check out her journey and story at https://mountainsofmymind.com.

Libby Znaimer is joined by Brody Slacer, VP of Operations at Flashfood Inc., Lori Nikkel, CEO of Second Harvest and Rose Reisman, a caterer and cook book author. If you had the option to purchase produce at the grocery store that was near or at its sell-by date for a heavily discounted price, would you? For those willing consumers, there are grocery stores that are pushing this initiative to help combat food waste and avoid having perfectly fine food from going to the landfill directly instead. They are even working with apps like Flashfood Inc. to post these items and their respective prices. And, while it may be an environmentally friendly choice for consumers to make, it also can be a sound financial option considering how expensive food has become with inflation. ---- THE INCREASED COST OF LTC FOOD Libby Znaimer is joined by Lisa Levin, the CEO of AdvantAge Ontario and Councillor Gary Crawford, Ward 20 Scarborough Southwest and Chair of the Budget Committee. Yesterday, Mayor John Tory made his budget remarks for the launch of the City of Toronto's 2023 Budget. In it, he said that "on a city scale, we too are seeing the impact of the higher cost of food. For example it has added $3 million to our budget for meals in our City-owned long-term care homes – a 31 per cent increase". Our guests weigh in on this increase in cost and the implications of it all. ---- PARTICIPACTION STUDY ON PHYSICAL EXERCISE DURING WINTER Libby Znaimer is joined by Leigh Vanderloo, an Exercise Scientist with ParticipACTION. As many as 60 per cent of Canadians experience the Winter blues according to ParticipACTION. And, while it is scientifically proven that movement and exercise help to improve mood, 52 per cent list cold weather as a barrier to physical activity during this season. Leigh explains strategies we can incorporate to be more active and incorporate more exercise in our daily lives with the goal of feeling better.

Coach Carey Nelson's notable achievements are vast, but you would never know it. A humble runner and coach, Coach Carey has been running for over 44 years, and just completed his 6th world marathon major in Berlin. This accomplishment is just one of many, which include winning the Houston Marathon with a time of 2:12 in 1991, and qualifying for the Olympics 3 times, competing in the 5000m distance in Seoul Korea in 1988, and in the 1996 Atlanta Summer Olympics for the marathon distance (Coach Carey had to withdraw from the 1992 Olympics in Barcelona due to injury). This is all before the era of Strava, smart watches, gels, and fancy carbon plated shoes. In fact, it was a shoeless runner who inspired Coach Carey at the age of 14, and from that day on, Coach Carey knew he wanted to compete in the Olympics one day. Regardless of the long list of accomplishments, I think all runners will relate to Coach Carey's experience with injury, his passion for running as life long sport, and how something amazing can start with a big dream. On a related note: How many of you guys remember Body Break and ParticipAction with Hal Johnson and Joanne Mcleod? They are Canadian Icons who inspired me growing up, and funny how Coach Carey was inspired by them, too. I hope you enjoy this episode. If you want to reach Coach Carey, you can email him at carey.nelson@forerunners.ca . (or find him at the Main Street Forerunners!).

Pastor Rhoda concludes our "Participaction" series with some practical tips to assess your calling and ministry fit.

One of the nostalgic throwbacks to love is Canada's “Participaction” campaign. We all fight inertia, the tendency to do nothing or to remain unchanged. Sometimes it's personal, and sometimes it comes from the overwhelming helplessness as we face this unraveling world. This message series will explore the driving forces and practices that can keep us spiritual couch potatoes or help shape a dynamic life of faith.

In 2020, ParticipACTION released The ParticipACTION Report Card on Physical Activity for Children and Youth, which is the most comprehensive assessment of child and youth physical activity in Canada. Studies show that, youth are more sedentary than ever because of the widespread availability of social networking.

New in this update:One-third of BC Recovery Benefit applications flaggedIf you're still waiting for your BC Recovery Benefit, don't hold your breath. The province admits one-third of those who have applied for it have had their applications flagged for review, and of those flagged, just 13% have been resolved. The Ministry of Finance says manual reviews are triggered for reasons including a change in marital status, errors on applications or the information provided does not match up with the information government has on file. The $500 dollar per individual or $1000 dollars per family benefit was an election promise that John Horgan said would be delivered in early January if not before Christmas. The Premier has offered little comfort to those still waiting for that promise to be delivered."Could we have done better? Of course we could but I'm convinced that most British Columbians, in fact 1.4 million of them, are pretty happy with the way the program rolled out."—Premier John Horgan.The premier's statistics are not accurate. The Ministry of Finance says 1.4 million British Columbians have applied for the benefit, but 400,000 applications are under review and it has no idea when that backlog will be eliminated.Province unclear how it will proceed with a gap in vaccine productionMore details will be released this afternoon, about how the province will handle a reduction in shipments of the Pfizer vaccine. The vaccine maker says it is shutting down some of the lines in its plant in Belgium, to prepare it to manufacture more vaccine. The Minister of Health says BC will receive about half of the 50,000 doses it had expected this month and next. Adrian Dix says it is not clear how that will affect those who have received their first dose, and were expecting to receive their second dose in just over a month."So what it means for British Columbia is it will have some effect, some significant effect on this stage on the priority one groups and when they get their doses, so some of the issues before us, and no decisions have been made about this is, of course, is the 35-day gap and what this might mean for that."—Minister of Health Adrian Dix.Dix and the provincial Health Officer, Dr. Bonnie Henry are expected to release more details about a revised vaccine roll-out plan this afternoon.Park closed by City of Nanaimo for maintenanceThe Beban Kinsmen Participark will be closed this week. Crews will be removing hazardous trees and invasive plants starting today until Friday. Participark was built in the 1970s as part of Ottawa's ParticipACTION program to motivate Canadians to exercise. Participark includes 12 exercise stations along a 2-kilometre trail circuit. This week's tree removal is the first step in a project that will see the old wooden workout stations replaced with a new circuit.

Vos cinq animateurs vous invitent cette semaine à découvrir les initiatives d'une cinquantaine de médecins qui sonnent l’alarme et viennent de dénoncer le recours, trop facile selon eux, aux médicaments pour traiter une série de symptômes s’apparentant au trouble du déficit de l’attention avec ou sans hyperactivité (TDAH) chez les jeunes dans la province du Québec, où la consommation de psychostimulants, comme le Ritalin, est trois fois plus élevée que dans le reste du Canada.

Selon des chercheurs canadiens cependant, la manière optimale de traiter cette condition comportementale demeure inconnue. Une cinquantaine d’experts médicaux dénoncent la surmédication au Ritalin chez les jeunes Québécois Près de 50 pédiatres et autres spécialistes du Québec tirent la sonnette d’alarme et dénoncent une tendance inquiétante qu’il juge très problématique : la surmédication chez les enfants pour combattre les troubles de déficit de l’attention ou d’hyperactivité. 14 % des enfants de 10 à 12 ans se sont vu prescrire un médicament pour le TDAH. Les pilules du « dopage » scolaire? Des étudiants qui désirent augmenter leur niveau de concentration et optimiser leur performance scolaire prennent ces « smart drugs » ou nootropes (amplificateurs cognitifs) . De 5 % à 35 % des étudiants en médecine au Canada consomment des « smart drugs », selon une estimation du Journal de l’association médicale canadienne. Les effets des antidépresseurs qui se transmettent des parents aux enfants Au cours d’une recherche sur les effets d’un antidépresseur utilisé par les humains sur la reproduction des poissons-zèbres, les biologistes Marilyn Vera-Chang et Vance Trudeau de l’Université d’Ottawa ont découvert quelque chose au sujet de la fluoxétine (Prozac), un médicament souvent prescrit aux femmes enceintes. Les Québécois estiment insuffisante l’aide aux élèves en difficulté Selon un sondage commandé par un syndicat représentant des milliers d’enseignants, seulement 34 % des citoyens estiment que le réseau scolaire public dispose des moyens suffisants pour s’occuper avec équité des élèves handicapés ou en difficulté d’adaptation ou d’apprentissage. Les élèves canadiens ne bougent pas assez et cela nuit à leur cerveau Dans son Bulletin 2018 de l’activité physique chez les enfants et les jeunes, ParticipACTION se désole de la léthargie des jeunes. Une situation qui pourrait nuire à la santé de leur cerveau, les rendre moins attentifs, altérer négativement leur humeur et les empêcher d’atteindre leur plein potentiel à l’école et à l’extérieur de celle-ci.

De 5 % à 35 % des étudiants en médecine au Canada consomment des « smart drugs », selon une estimation du Journal de l'association médicale canadienne. Les effets des antidépresseurs qui se transmettent des parents aux enfants Au cours d'une recherche sur les effets d'un antidépresseur utilisé par les humains sur la reproduction des poissons-zèbres, les biologistes Marilyn Vera-Chang et Vance Trudeau de l'Université d'Ottawa ont découvert quelque chose au sujet de la fluoxétine (Prozac), un médicament souvent prescrit aux femmes enceintes. Les Québécois estiment insuffisante l'aide aux élèves en difficulté Selon un sondage commandé par un syndicat représentant des milliers d'enseignants, seulement 34 % des citoyens estiment que le réseau scolaire public dispose des moyens suffisants pour s'occuper avec équité des élèves handicapés ou en difficulté d'adaptation ou d'apprentissage. Les élèves canadiens ne bougent pas assez et cela nuit à leur cerveau Dans son Bulletin 2018 de l'activité physique chez les enfants et les jeunes, ParticipACTION se désole de la léthargie des jeunes. Une situation qui pourrait nuire à la santé de leur cerveau, les rendre moins attentifs, altérer négativement leur humeur et les empêcher d'atteindre leur plein potentiel à l'école et à l'extérieur de celle-ci.

Remember the movie 'Liar Liar' with Jim Carey? Remember when he picks up the phone and just yells 'Stop breaking the law'? We used that clip a good 12 times this morning because people keep speeding in school zones! Also on the show today... The Body Break jingle was wayyy better than the Participaction jingle, and Apples are a metaphor for life

Saturday Mornings w/ Tom Milroy (with guest host Kevin Burgin) talks to Jordan Ceiciwa about the Participaction up and go program

Body Break! OK, we couldn’t get the rights to the Participaction theme tune (damn you, Hal Johnson and Joanne McLeod!) but we’re all about the human bod this week with our lovely guest, RMT and anatomy nerd Ray! We ask them the hard-hitting, visceral (sorry) questions–favorite muscle has three sub-categories, apparently–and get all that good knowledge on the various ways we can treat our fragile meat prisons a little better.

ParticipACTION’s Elio Antunes says the statistics show families need to get active to avoid health consequences in the future.
