The Golden Crew is back at full strength! Jen returns from two weeks on Kauai with a full scouting report on Puka Dog (verdict: not a sandwich, don't ask Thomas), Trevor discovers Peruvian food in DC and spends his trip pointing at monuments, and Tom... stayed home. Sorry, Bub.This week's main event: things you will NEVER hear a veteran cruiser say. "I wish they'd bring back the old muster drill." "That short line must be guest services." "I put my passport in my checked luggage." "That hot tub doesn't look like human soup." If any of these sound reasonable to you, this episode is your intervention.Plus: the infamous foot-scratching fork video passes 32 MILLION views (the offending utensil has reportedly been retired), Brando asks whether Netflix is secretly out to sink the cruise industry, Jesse asks if we book for the ship or the itinerary, and Jen tells the heroic saga of retrieving her phone from an airplane garbage bag.

A review of Royal Caribbean's Independence of the Seas in 2026. Earlier this year, Matt took a seven-night Caribbean cruise aboard Royal Caribbean's Independence of the Seas from Port Miami. Matt shares his experience navigating flight cancellations due to a Georgia storm and the Miami Marathon's impact on transportation. He praises the ship's cleanliness, exceptional dining in both the main dining room and specialty restaurants, and highlights Perfect Day at CocoCay, Puerto Rico, and Saint Thomas as memorable ports. Despite limited grab-and-go food options and slightly longer disembarkation, Matt considers the cruise excellent value, recommending it for families and couples alike.Hear his complete thoughts in this week's inerview.

Royal Caribbean has extended its suspension of ship calls to Labadee, its leased private destination in Haiti, through June 2027, citing safety concerns tied to conditions in the country. The decision cancels 62 scheduled visits in early 2027 across nine ships and reroutes calls to ports including Nassau, Perfect Day at CocoCay, Puerto Plata, Cozumel, and Grand Cayman. At Port Canaveral on July 17, 2026, the Brevard County Sheriff's Office took six cruise guests into custody on outstanding warrants; no onboard misconduct or delays were reported, and all ships departed on schedule. And Victory Cruise Lines will add Erie, Pennsylvania to its 2028 Great Lakes Voyage aboard the 190-passenger Victory I and Victory II, with an inaugural call set for July 21, 2028.

Your business will never outgrow your leadership. In this episode, John Kitchens continues the coaching and leadership series with the five core principles and practices that separate coaches and leaders who create real transformation from those who don't. Building on the fundamentals, the coach-client relationship, the Coach Code results framework, and emotional intelligence covered in earlier episodes, John unpacks knowing your why (and the real difference between passion and purpose), designing your Perfect Day as a decision-making filter, understanding "the river" of nonlinear growth, applying the Theory of Constraints to find what's really holding you back, and why repetition, not a new message every week, is what actually moves people to act. Key Topics Covered: Principle #1: Your Why — the difference between passion (something you love doing) and purpose (something you love doing that helps other people) Principle #2: The Perfect Day — using it as a decision-making filter to move faster and with more clarity Principle #3: The River — why growth isn't linear, and the coach's job during the whitewater, the drought, and everything between Principle #4: Theory of Constraints — finding the one thing actually holding your business back, with book recommendations "The Goal" by Eli Goldratt and "Reset" by Dan Heath Principle #5: Repetition — why "the rule of 7" is really closer to 20+, and why leaders must repeat their message far more than feels comfortable "There are no business problems. There are only leadership problems. The size of your business is elastic to the size of your leadership capabilities." — John Kitchens Connect With Us: Save your seat for the training at 7FigureBP.com · Get your 7 Figure Audit at 7figurecall.com · Follow us on Instagram @johnkitchenscoach, LinkedIn @johnkitchenscoach, and Facebook @johnkitchenscoach

A review of Icon of the Seas. Staff writer Richard Simms has cruise news. This week, we cover a record-setting day in Nassau as more than 33,000 cruise passengers arrived in port, ongoing chaos in Santorini as a controversial passenger distribution rule triggers another shutdown, and the tragic death of a pregnant fin whale believed to have been struck by Royal Caribbean's Ovation of the Seas near Seward, Alaska. We also discuss Royal Caribbean's decision to allow suite guests to bring non-suite friends into Coastal Kitchen for a fee, a massive brawl at PortMiami that resulted in 16 Carnival passengers being permanently banned from the cruise line, and Carnival's new limited-edition Bulleit single-barrel bourbon being sold aboard select ships as part of America's 250th anniversary celebration. Michael and Tiffany return to Cruise Radio to share their review of a seven-night Eastern Caribbean cruise aboard Royal Caribbean's Icon of the Seas. Sailing from Miami, they discuss what it was like experiencing one of the world's largest cruise ships and whether the hype lives up to reality. The couple shares their thoughts on the ship's layout, dining, entertainment, and crowd management, including why the vessel never felt crowded despite carrying more than 7,000 guests. They discuss favorites like Pearl Café, Giovanni's Italian Kitchen, Hooked Seafood, the AquaTheater production, and Royal Caribbean's adults-only Hideaway areas both onboard and at Perfect Day at CocoCay. They also talk about their visits to St. Maarten, St. Thomas, and Perfect Day at CocoCay, along with tips for navigating the ship, finding quiet spaces, and deciding whether Icon of the Seas is worth the premium price.

In this episode of Ted in Your Head, Certified Hypnotherapist Ted Moreno explores the art and practice of designing days that feel fulfilling, meaningful, and alive — even in the middle of a busy work week. Drawing from his work helping clients break free from the modern epidemic of overwhelm, Ted shares practical, grounded strategies for building days that include flow, ease, presence, and joy — not just productivity. You'll discover how your evening routine sets the stage for the next day, why knowing your own energy rhythms is essential, and how small, intentional choices — from how you wake up to how you wind down — can transform an ordinary day into one worth remembering. Listen to this episode to learn how to stop waiting for the perfect day and start participating in creating it — one intention, one choice, and one moment at a time.

Welcome back to our ongoing "Candice's Perfect Day" series! This time, we're heading to Disney's Hollywood Studios for a day that's equal parts Toy Story, Star Wars, snacks, and spirited debate.Before we even make it to the park, we're tackling an important question: what is the catchiest song in all of Disney? (Spoiler: there are strong opinions involved.)Then it's time for a leisurely morning at Beach Club, breakfast with Mickey waffles, and a boat ride over to Hollywood Studios. From Toy Story Land to Galaxy's Edge, Candice maps out her ideal day—complete with Toy Story Mania, Alien Swirling Saucers, Slinky Dog Dash, Ronto Wraps, Black Caf cold brew, Blue Milk, and a trip aboard Rise of the Resistance.Along the way, we dive into one of our biggest Disney disagreements yet: why Hollywood Studios is in the running for Scott's favorite park but Candice's least favorite. Is the park brilliant storytelling, or is it Disney's biggest cash grab? We discuss theming, transitions between lands, the loss of the MGM Studios identity, and what Hollywood Studios still needs to become truly cohesive.Of course, no perfect day is complete without some favorite stops:• Baseline Tap House and its giant pretzel and charcuterie board• A photo with Sorcerer Mickey• Dinner at 50's Prime Time Café• Peanut butter and jelly milkshakes and peanut butter chocolate cake• One Man's Dream and the new animation experience• Evening strolls through Galaxy's Edge and Toy Story Land after dark• A nightcap from Hurricane Hanna's back at Beach ClubYou'll also hear which Hollywood Studios icons surprisingly do NOT make Candice's must-do list, including Tower of Terror, Mickey & Minnie's Runaway Railway, Fantasmic!, and Rock 'n' Roller Coaster.Everyone's perfect Disney day looks different, and that's what makes these conversations so much fun. So tell us: what would YOUR perfect Hollywood Studios day include?Come join the conversation on Facebook and Instagram, and let us know where you agree with Candice—and where you think she's completely wrong.Thanks for hanging out with us, and remember...There's always a great big beautiful tomorrow.#DisneyPodcast #HollywoodStudios #DisneyAdults #DisneyWorld #GalaxyEdge #ToyStoryLand #BeachClubResort #BaselineTapHouse #50sPrimeTimeCafe #HanginAtTheHangarBar

I'm recording this from Bali, and I can feel something shifting in me.There is a version of this story that could sound like luck. Like I just happened to be able to take my family here for three months, work from beautiful cafes, go to the gym, get massages, swim with Leo every afternoon, and build a life that feels expansive and alive.But I need to be clear. This was never about luck.Everything I have created has come from a decision. A desire. A clear vision. A willingness to take inspired action before I knew every single step. I have had fears, doubts, and plenty of moments where I could have talked myself out of the life I wanted. But at some point, I stopped waiting for permission and chose to create it anyway.That is what this episode is really about. Not just Bali. Not just business. Not just AI or offers or systems. It is about what happens when you decide to live like the pilot of your own life.What You'll LearnWhy our second time in Bali feels completely different, and how preparation, support, and clarity changed everythingWhat it actually takes to create freedom, adventure, and intention, and why luck has nothing to do with itHow coaching, breathwork, rituals, and embodiment work have helped me reconnect with the bold, courageous version of myselfWhat is shifting inside my business, including new offers, old frameworks coming back to life, and a deeper body of work beginning to emergeHow I'm working alongside Josh as his fractional CMO, bringing AI education, workshops, and systems into the worldWhy I believe AI and talented humans can create an incredible partnershipKey TakeawaysThis life was built through decisions, not luck. If you want a different life, start by deciding it is available to you.Clarity makes everything easier. We came back to Bali knowing the visa process, the school, the rhythm, the support systems. When you know what works, you move with so much more ease.Support changes the whole experience. Freedom does not mean doing everything alone. It means setting up the right structure around you.Your Perfect Day is not a silly exercise. When you allow yourself to imagine how you actually want your life to feel, you begin to notice what needs to change.The next body of work is revealing itself. This season is about looking back at 16 plus years of work and asking what still feels alive, what needs to return, and what will serve my clients best now.ResourcesStart with my free Perfect Day exercise and workbook at lifepilot.co/perfect. This is one of the simplest but most powerful ways to get clear on what you actually want your life, business, energy, relationships, work, and everyday rhythm to look and feel like.Try the free Owaken Breathwork session on YouTube.

Send a text for comments or topics ideas! ⁉️ Why does weight loss sometimes feel like an uphill battle? Why do healthy habits feel manageable for a short amount of time… but impossible to maintain long term? In today's episode, we're talking about something that quietly sabotages consistency for so many women: friction. Friction is the mental, emotional, and logistical resistance that makes healthy choices feel harder than they need to be. It can show up as guilt, perfectionism, all-or-nothing thinking, unrealistic expectations, low energy, decision fatigue, or trying to force routines that simply don't fit your real life. And often, the answer isn't “more discipline.” The answer may be reducing the friction. In this conversation, we explore how small shifts in expectations, routines, and mindset can make healthy habits feel more achievable, sustainable, and supportive — especially for busy women trying to balance work, family, stress, hormones, emotional eating, and everyday life. We walk through real-life examples of: Reducing food guilt and “clean plate club” thinking Making movement feel easier and more realistic Navigating all-or-nothing thinking around exercise Lowering the mental load of weight loss Creating habits that work in real life — not just ideal circumstances Letting go of perfectionism while still moving forward Building consistency through ease instead of self-punishment If you've ever felt like you're constantly fighting yourself when it comes to health, this episode will help you rethink what sustainable change can actually look like. Because sometimes the healthiest thing we can do is stop asking: “How do I force myself to do this?” …and start asking: “How do I make this easier to sustain?”

A cruise ship can feel like a floating city, but it gets a lot smaller when you spot your people. We're back with the full recap of the inaugural Rise and Run cruise aboard Royal Caribbean's Utopia of the Seas, and we're sharing what surprised us, what we'd do differently, and the moments that turned a trip into a four-night running community meetup.We talk through the send-off at Pop Century (yes, Pluto shows up), the bus ride to port, and that first step onto a ship that feels more like Vegas than a quiet getaway. Then we get into the practical stuff you'll actually want if you're planning a cruise: buffet and crowd strategy on embarkation day, how the muster drill works on Royal, where to find calmer adult-only spaces like the Solarium Bistro, and what a sail away party is like when it's loud, long, and unapologetically high energy.From there, it's the good stuff: our group cruise run on the Deck 5 track (wind tunnels included), Nassau choices and the Royal Beach Club reality check when the weather doesn't cooperate, a medaling celebration inside the Pesky Parrot tiki bar, and the Aqua 80s show that had us talking long after curtain call. We also share what it's like to record a live podcast on a ship, plus the onboard chaos of Price Is Right Live and an escape room win.We wrap with Perfect Day at CocoCay highlights and a look ahead to Cruise 2.0 with a listener survey to shape what comes next.

Woke up feeling off but not sure why? This week I'm sharing my simple 10 minute reset that helps me shift my mood, regain control, and turn my day around without needing to start over.This is not about forcing myself to feel amazing or having a perfect day. It is about making small, intentional shifts that help me feel just a little bit better.I walk you through exactly what I do to reset. I change my physical state with water, fresh air, or movement. I reset one small space to calm the overwhelm. Then I shift my mindset with simple thoughts, music, or even silence.Because the truth is you do not need a whole new day. You just need a moment to reset and come back to yourself.Website: https://www.splashofash.comIG: https://www.instagram.com/a_splashofash/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/asplashofashhEmail: Hello@splashofash.com
