In this episode, Joey Pinz sits down with Dr. Torkil Færø — a physician, bestselling author, and global traveler — to explore the groundbreaking world of wearable health and the untapped power of heart rate variability (HRV).After a life-changing wake-up call following his father's death, Dr. Færø transformed his own lifestyle from stressed, overweight, and overworked to vibrant and thriving.

“Being disillusioned is a very hard place to be in… but I realized my master's job was to set me free. In the end, that heartbreak gave me the freedom to discover my own truth.” — Deborah Rudell In this episode of Uncorking a Story, I sit down with Deborah Rudell, author of Grit and Grace, to explore her extraordinary life. From growing up on the road in a converted school bus, to living on a controversial commune in Oregon, to rebuilding a schooner once owned by Crosby, Stills & Nash and sailing it across the Pacific, Deborah's story is one of resilience, reinvention, and reflection. Along the way, she discovered not only the truth about her spiritual journey, but also the healing power of writing memoir. Key Takeaways: The power of disillusionment. Deborah explains how betrayal by a spiritual leader forced her to find her own truth and independence. Healing through introspection. Long hours sanding and varnishing a boat paralleled the process of stripping down her own life story to its bones. From boat project to memoir. What began as a picture book about restoring a schooner evolved into a deeply personal memoir about faith, freedom, and forgiveness. Writing as transformation. Feedback from her writing group helped Deborah uncover the real story she needed to tell. Facing fear and finding freedom. Sailing across the Pacific with her family and a novice crew taught her resilience and trust in the unknown. Lessons from publishing. Deborah shares the steep learning curve of writing, editing, and promoting her first book, including recording her own audiobook. The bigger picture. Her story reminds us that every utopia has shadows, but freedom comes when we learn to see clearly and tell our truth.

For the first time ever, a New Zealand woman has successfully co-skippered a yacht through the Northwest Passage. Veronica Lysaght spoke to Ingrid Hipkiss.
So, you want to go on a cruise. What could go wrong? After listening or watching today’s episode, you might think twice, for good reasons. When Jamie Barnett said goodbye to her daughter, Ashley, in 2005, who was going on a three-day cruise with her boyfriend and two other couples to Mexico, she never dreamt that it would be the last time she would see her daughter alive. What was supposed to be a birthday celebration resulted in the death of Ashley due to illegal activities on board the ship, gross negligence from the staff of the ship, and subpar medical attention aboard the cruise ship. My guest on the show today, Jamie Barnett, has turned grief and frustration from dealing with the cruise industry, government officials, and the FBI, into advocacy and hope. Jamie Barnett is the president of the International Cruise Victims (ICV) organization and became an advocate for cruise ship safety after her 24-year-old daughter, Ashley Barnett, died on a cruise in 2005 due to gross negligence by the cruise line. Her advocacy work was instrumental in the passage of the Cruise Vessel Safety and Security Act of 2010, and she continues to fight for stricter regulations of cruise vessels to ensure the safety of their passengers. Jamie appeared in the Netflix docuseries "Amy Bradley is Missing," further highlighting the dangers on cruise ships by drawing parallels between her daughter's death and the disappearance of Amy Bradley in 1998 As a dad and grandpa, this episode hit home. I can’t imagine what Jamie went through and continues to go through! Bravo to Jamie and others who are attempting to keep cruise lines accountable and safer. In today’s episode, we discuss: · Thank you, Vic Ferrari over at the NYPD Through The Looking Glass Podcast, for the intro. · The organization, International Cruise Victims, and her role, and how she became involved. · How the United States Congress has become involved in attempting to make the cruise line industry safer for its guests. · In 2005, her daughter, Ashley, was murdered aboard a Carnival cruise to Mexico. · Her daughter’s body was taken to Mexico for a subpar autopsy against her wishes. · The FBI not charging her boyfriend with any crime after he smuggled illegal narcotics aboard that Ashley ingested and caused her death. · Sub-par medical attention and gross negligence aboard the ship that contributed to Ashley’s death. · Jamie’s connection to the recent Netflix special, Amy Bradley is Missing. · Jamie’s frustration with the severe lack of cooperation, sympathy, and compassion from the FBI. · The cruise lines that have the worst crime rates. · What you can do to stay safe aboard a cruise ship. All of this and more on today’s episode of the Cops and Writers podcast. Please visit the International Cruise Victims Association to learn more about this important topic and donate.

In this episode of Sailing and Cruising the East Coast of the United States, Bela Musits and co-host Mike Wasserman welcome Robert Sweet — a sailor with an unconventional beginning. Robert lives in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, far from the ocean. Yet his passion for sailing grew steadily, from childhood outings on a 19-foot O'Day Day Sailer to charting trips in the Virgin Islands.Bela and Robert dive into the unique challenges and rewards of becoming a boat owner later in life. Robert shares how he and his wife — both in their 60s — transitioned from occasional day sails on vacation to seriously planning for boat ownership. Their journey began with modest sailing experiences with the occasional skippered day sail. Over decades, the idea of owning a boat evolved from a casual dream into a concrete goal.To prepare, Robert and his wife booked progressively more immersive sailing experiences. They spent a night aboard a sailboat on Puget Sound, completed ASA 101 and 103 courses in San Diego, and tested overnight stays in various harbors. Each step helped fill gaps in their knowledge.The couple planned two key charters to shape their buying decisions: a three-day trip in the Florida Keys aboard a heavy, blue-water center-cockpit boat, and a week in the Virgin Islands on a modern production cruiser — a Jeanneau Sun Odyssey. Their goal was to compare styles, comfort, and performance before committing to a purchase.But as often happens, life intervened. The Florida Keys trip was postponed three times — first by Robert's mountain biking injury, then by his wife's back surgery, and finally by scheduling changes. Eventually, they made the Keys trip in December, followed by the Virgin Islands charter over Easter.During the downtime, Robert immersed himself in research — online articles, boat buying guides, and, crucially, sailing podcasts. He discovered Bela's show and was struck by the host's perspective as an “older buyer.” Unlike the typical narrative of a 30-year-old dropping everything to sail away, Bela's discussions addressed the practical realities of starting serious sailing later in life: ergonomics, safety, injury prevention, and choosing a boat suited to physical comfort.Robert emphasizes that boat accessibility is a real concern. Newer boats often have higher freeboards, making boarding a challenge — especially for shorter crew members. Testing boarding methods became part of their evaluation process when visiting marinas and inspecting potential boats.Robert's story is a reminder that you don't have to grow up near the sea to become a competent and passionate sailor. His methodical approach — gaining experience in varied conditions, learning boat systems, and realistically assessing personal capabilities — offers valuable lessons for anyone considering buying a boat later in life.Key Topics Covered in This Episode:Growing up sailing small boats and rediscovering the sport decades laterTransitioning from day sails to overnight trips and multi-day chartersTaking ASA sailing courses to build confidence and competenceComparing blue-water cruisers vs. modern production boatsOvercoming physical and logistical challenges as older sailorsHow to evaluate boarding ease, cockpit layout, and overall ergonomicsThe importance of testing boats in different sailing locations and conditionsWhether you're an experienced sailor, a dreamer still waiting to cast off, or someone returning to sailing after many years, Robert's journey proves that passion and persistence can bridge the gap between landlocked life and cruising the Bahamas.Connect With Us:If you enjoyed this episode, please subscribe and leave a review—it helps us reach more sailing enthusiasts like you!

After multiple voyages by the Gaza Freedom Flotilla have been prevented from reaching Gaza's shores by Israel's military, a massive fleet of freedom flotillas are currently sailing towards Gaza to deliver life-saving humanitarian aid to Palestinians in the midst of genocide. The Global Sumud Flotilla “brings together a diverse coalition of international participants, including those involved in previous land and sea efforts like the Maghreb Sumud Flotilla, Freedom Flotilla Coalition, and Global Movement to Gaza.” Including over 50 vessels, delegations from at least 44 countries, and activists, organizers, and people of conscience from around the world, the Global Sumud Flotilla is the largest maritime mission in history to break Israel's blockade of the Gaza Strip. TRNN Editor-in-Chief Maximillian Alvarez speaks with Zue Jernstedt and Zuleyka Morales Rivera, two US military veterans and members of About Face: Veterans Against the War, who are sailing with the Global Sumud Flotilla.Editor's Note: Hours after recording this interview, members of the Global Sumud Flotilla reported that a drone struck one of the vessels off the coast of Tunis, sparking a fire on the main deck.Additional links/info:Global Sumud Flotilla website, TikTok, and InstagramAbout Face: Veterans Against the War website, TikTok, and InstagramRuwaida Amer's documentary reporting for TRNN from GazaMaximillian Alvarez, The Real News Network, “Chris Smalls: Sabotage attempts and death threats won't stop Gaza Freedom Flotilla”Credits:Studio Production: Cameron GranadinoPost-Production: David HebdenHelp us continue producing radically independent news and in-depth analysis by following us and becoming a monthly sustainer.Follow us on:Bluesky: @therealnews.comFacebook: The Real News NetworkTwitter: @TheRealNewsYouTube: @therealnewsInstagram: @therealnewsnetworkBecome a member and join the Supporters Club for The Real News Podcast today!

De l'achat de son mini 6.50 à l'arrivée de son deuxième Vendée Globe fin janvier 2025, il s'est écoulé... à peine une décennie.Quel parcours que celui de Clarisse Crémer : marqué par des succès sportifs (victoires et podiums sur le circuit Mini, double finisheuse du Vendée Globe) mais aussi des épreuves personnelles et médiatiques qui l'ont profondément transformée. À 35 ans, elle parle avec beaucoup de sincérité de sa vie de navigatrice, de femme et de mère, entre passion de la mer et quête d'équilibre.Ses débuts sont atypiques : issue d'une famille parisienne aisée, passée par HEC, cofondatrice d'une start-up, elle découvre la course au large presque par hasard, dans le sillage de son compagnon Tanguy Le Turquais, avant de s'y engouffrer avec une énergie impressionnante. Mini-Transat, Figaro, puis le Vendée Globe : en dix ans, sa trajectoire fulgurante l'amène au plus haut niveau d'un sport où la légitimité se construit souvent dès l'enfance.Clarisse revient ensuite sur son premier tour du monde en solitaire, bouclé en 2021 à la 12ᵉ place, sous les couleurs de Banque Populaire. Un immense défi, vécu avec des doutes et un sentiment d'imposture, mais aussi comme une révélation intime : la compétition, dit-elle, n'efface jamais sa relation « presque spirituelle » avec la mer. C'est ce mélange de fragilité et de combativité qui la pousse à vouloir repartir, malgré les obstacles.Elle aborde sans détour les épisodes plus sombres, les "affaires" qui la touchent : la rupture avec son ancien sponsor au moment de sa grossesse, les polémiques qui s'ensuivent, puis les accusations de triche un an plus tard, dont elle sera blanchie avec Tanguy Le Turquais. Autant de tempêtes médiatiques qui ont failli la faire renoncer, mais qu'elle décrit comme autant d'occasions d'apprendre à s'affirmer, à dire non et à tracer sa voie.Enfin, elle raconte son second Vendée Globe à bord de L'Occitane, vécu cette fois avec une forme de sérénité. Malgré les avaries et la fatigue, elle savoure le simple fait d'être seule en mer, dans une vie réduite à l'essentiel. À l'arrivée, confie-t-elle, c'est la première fois qu'elle s'est sentie vraiment fière d'elle.Une fierté forgée par l'expérience, les coups encaissés, et le choix assumé de continuer à naviguer, coûte que coûte.Diffusé le 5 septembre 2025Générique : In Closing – Days PastPost-production : Grégoire LevillainHébergé par Ausha.

#176 - What does it take to sail around the world? For Alison Gieschen, it's required facing her worst fears while clinging to a dream she's had since childhood. From the moment she and her husband Dan met at a sailboat race and discovered their shared ambition to circumnavigate the globe, their path was set – though hardly smooth sailing.Alison's journey began far from any ocean, on a 100-acre farm in upstate New York where she developed her first great passion: horses. Rising to elite competitive levels and eventually building her own equestrian vaulting program that became the largest on the East Coast, she never imagined trading stable ground for the unpredictable waves. Yet when she met Dan, something clicked. After just one weekend together, they recognized in each other the perfect sailing partner, and soon after, life partner.Now seven years into their global circumnavigation, Alison shares harrowing tales that would make most people head straight for land – surviving "The Perfect Storm" with 20-foot waves that ripped equipment from their boat, enduring five catastrophic failures during a Pacific crossing, and facing a tsunami just days after reaching French Polynesia. Through it all, she's maintained her creative spirit, writing prolifically across genres from sailing memoirs to horse novels to children's books about mermaids.What makes Alison's story particularly compelling is her honesty about fear. Despite visiting nearly 50 countries by sea, she calls herself "the bravest chicken on the planet." This paradox captures something essential about courage – it's not fearlessness but perseverance despite terror. When their first ocean crossing went terribly wrong, a chance encounter with her sailing mentor provided the perspective she needed: surviving your worst fears is actually a gift that proves you can handle anything.Whether you're dreaming of distant horizons or simply looking for inspiration to face your own challenges, Alison's adventures remind us that, as she puts it, "Life is what you make of it, and if you have a dream, you need to go for it, because life's too short not to."To learn more about Alison and get her books check out www.alisongieschen.com.Want to be a guest on Journey with Jake?

À 41 ans, Louis Duc a bouclé le dernier Vendée Globe au terme d'une aventure marquée par la ténacité. De cette expérience fondatrice, le skipper normand confie sans détour la difficulté de s'en remettre, l'amnésie étrange des premières semaines après l'arrivée, et ce besoin irrépressible d'y retourner : « J'ai vécu un truc extraordinaire… mais pas fini ».La carrière de Louis Duc ne ressemble à aucune autre. Né à Cherbourg, élevé à Carteret, il découvre la mer dans un doris de récréation et construit ses rêves dans les pages des magazines. L'école, très peu pour lui : il arrête à 17 ans pour apprendre le composite chez JMV à Cherbourg, puis chez Foncia aux côtés d'Alain Gautier. Il multiplie ensuite les embarquements, achète un mini en épave, le retape, prend le départ de la MiniTransat en 2005, démâte en mer, regrée, arrive à Dakar et revient… embarqué par la Marine nationale ! L'histoire est rocambolesque, mais fonde un style : celui d'un artisan, déterminé et passionné.Ce goût pour les aventures hors-normes le conduit ensuite en Class40, où il monte avec trois associés un projet basé en Normandie avec un bateau d'occasion pendant 3 saisons. Ensemble, ils construisent ensuite en 2017 un bateau neuf et innovant signé Marc Lombard - le premier Lift - , et Louis Duc se retrouve pour la première fois à la tête d'un projet financé et compétitif. Malgré des hauts et des bas – abandon sur la Route du Rhum 2018, 5e place avec Aurélien Ducroz lors de la Transat Jacques Vabre 2019 –, "P'tit Louis", comme on l'appelle, est devenu grand. Malheureusement, lors du convoyage retour, dans un coup de vent proche des Açores, lui et son équipier sont doivent abandonner le bateau...Une épreuve marquante, mais Louis Duc est tenace et se lance ensuite dans son premier Vendée Globe, sur un bateau reconstruit à partir d'une coque incendiée. Louis boucle l'épreuve, malgré les avaries de voile et les moyens limités. Il en tire un mélange de fierté – "je l'ai fini" – et aussi de frustration – "je pouvais faire mieux". Depuis, il prépare la suite, avec l'envie de passer sur un foiler, mais sans illusion sur la difficulté à financer un projet à 4 ou 5 millions d'euros.Le Vendée Globe 2028 en ligne de mire, Louis Duc incarne une autre voie : celle d'un marin d'artisanat et de convictions, enraciné en Normandie, attaché au collectif, et toujours avide d'apprendre. Un skipper "normal", comme il aime à le dire, mais dont le parcours, lui, ne l'est décidément pas.Diffusé le 22 août 2025Générique : In Closing – Days PastPost-production : Grégoire LevillainHébergé par Ausha.
