What if the scuba diving industry has been missing something critical — and two people just figured out how to fix it?Dr. Calina Ouliaris and Simon Lugan, cofounders of Journey Underwater, have developed a groundbreaking wellness framework that's reshaping how divers learn, breathe, and reconnect with their minds underwater (and on land). Their approach — the “Dive In” Framework (also an official PADI specialty course) — challenges the dive industry to go beyond physical safety checklists and finally address the mental and psychological well-being of both students and instructors.In this full-length interview with Calina, we explore:Why traditional dive training is leaving a critical gap in diver wellnessHow the “Dive In” framework transforms learning environments and the significance of pre/post-dive briefings.The role of pace, mindfulness, and internalized safety in building a sustainable dive community.Why this movement could literally save scuba diving

A rescue diver from the Maldives has died after searching for the bodies of five Italians who were exploring an underwater cave. The team from Italy were diving at depths that are not permitted for recreational divers. We hear from a government spokesperson about the rescue operation and from a former military diver about the conditions in the cave.Also on the programme: more than 50 children have been abducted in Nigeria; and the Eurovision 2026 finals take place in Vienna.(Photo: A police boat joins a search and recovery operation in the Vaavu Atoll, Maldives.

On this episode of Destination on the Left, I talk with Kathleen Hall and Melanie Marsell, founders of Dive the Americas and Explore the Americas. Kathleen, who has called Costa Rica home for over a decade, and Melanie, who has roots in both the US and Central America, share the journeys of creating two innovative travel brands: Dive the Americas and Explore the Americas. We discuss how they're reshaping tourism by supporting local communities, collaborating with other travel professionals, and providing personalized guidance that helps travelers feel confident venturing into unfamiliar destinations. What You Will Learn in This Episode: Why Kathleen and Melanie chose scuba diving as a specialty, and how their personal experiences inspired Dive the Americas What sets their travel businesses apart in a crowded market, and how their deep regional expertise shapes their approach How living in the region and understanding both U.S. and local cultures helps Kathleen and Melanie create authentic, meaningful travel experiences Why saying no to misaligned business opportunities has been crucial in building companies that reflect their values How collaboration with other travel professionals and agents has fueled their growth and led to innovative new programs Steps Kathleen and Melanie are taking to promote responsible tourism and sustainability The Birth of Dive the Americas and Explore the Americas As novice divers, Kathleen and Melanie were struck by the lack of resources for beginner divers looking for immersive travel experiences in Latin America. The gaps they encountered while planning their own trips, from unreliable pickups to scarce destination information for divers, sparked the creation of Dive the Americas. They want to curate seamless, welcoming dive experiences and bridge the divide between underwater adventure and cultural travel. Standing Out by Putting People and Place First The competitive travel landscape makes standing out difficult, but Kathleen and Melanie credit their deep, lived local knowledge and passion for responsible tourism as their particular advantage. Their insider perspective lets them put together what both travelers and local communities need, ensuring sustainable, enriching exchanges for everyone. They stress the importance of supporting the economic well-being of local people, highlighting Costa Rica's leading role in renewable energy and commitment to responsible tourism as integral to every trip they design. This boots-on-the-ground dedication fuels deeply authentic, feel-good experiences for their guests, moving beyond just ticking off top attractions. Education, Sustainability, and Expanding Horizons Their latest projects tackle overtourism and champion authentic, less-trafficked experiences. Through a curated collection of restaurants, local businesses, and guides, the new initiative aims to provide both travelers and agents with up-to-date resources that keep the essence of places like Costa Rica intact, while distributing tourism benefits more equitably. Melanie and Kathleen believe education is key for travelers, agents, and partners so that everyone can make better, more aware choices.

Tyla grew up a gymnast, spending long hours inside - and found her freedom outdoors, especially underwater. Now based in Wellington, she shares how a childhood love of the ocean turned into a career as a scuba instructor, and why diving became her way to explore, teach, and slow things down. Tyla shares the technical side of diving, covering gear, qualifications, costs and options in New Zealand. She also breaks down fears like sharks, deep water and claustrophobia - and how knowledge, exposure and good training can help those fears. Alongside scuba, Tyla also loves riding motorbikes and reflects on how both underwater and on a bike, you have to be so in tune with your surroundings. Her advice is practical, calm, and grounded - especially for people curious about scuba or motorbikes, but unsure where to start.  Abigail & Isaac are kayaking for 1,000km from Cape Reinga to Tauranga in Feb-Mar 2026 to raise $20,000 for mental health and the ocean.

I'm kicking off a really fun 3-part series with my longtime friend Craig M. Robinson—someone I've known for over 30 years—who brings a whole new meaning to going deep. With 500+ dives under his belt, Craig shares how the mindset he's built underwater shapes the way he lives above it, and it's seriously inspiring. He's also just released a bestselling book on Amazon, so there's a lot to unpack in this one. And this is just the start—we're going from the ocean depths to the sky with a skydiver, and then all the way above the clouds with an astronaut.

Ethical Persuasion   Ethical Persuasion: The Fastest Path from "Maybe" to "Yes" (Without Being Pushy)   Most decisions aren't made by logic—they're made by fast, intuitive shortcuts.   That's why great offers often stall: we speak to System 2 logic while the listener's System 1 is steering the wheel. In this episode, Patrick Van Der Burght—ethical persuasion expert and business partner of Dr. Robert Cialdini—shows how to align with how people actually decide using Cialdini's seven principles of influence. The result? Communication that feels natural, honest, and effective whether you're leading, selling, or simply asking for change.   7 Key Insights You Can Apply Today: Reciprocity ≠ "freebie-for-email." A true gift has no strings attached. If you require an email, it's a reward—not a gift—so it won't trigger reciprocity. Action: Offer one no-opt-in resource purely to serve. Liking > "be likable." It's more persuasive that you genuinely like them than that they like you. Action: Express authentic appreciation before making an ask. Unity creates momentum. When people feel part of a shared identity, they move faster and farther together. Action: Involve your audience, team, or clients in co-creating outcomes. Social Proof must match the buyer. People follow others like them. Action: Use case studies or testimonials that mirror your ideal client's stage or values. Authority: let others announce your credibility. Self-promotion weakens authority and liking; third-party validation strengthens both. Action: Add a professional intro or testimonial that speaks your credibility for you. Credibility lives in precision. Rounded numbers signal estimates; decimals signal truth. Action: Use exact figures—"75.4%" sounds real, "75%" sounds guessed. Loss beats gain. People act faster to avoid loss than to gain reward. Action: Reframe offers by showing what's lost through inaction.   Money Learning from Patrick's Upbringing: Patrick grew up in a home where money was tight and every decision had to stretch the family's limited resources. That environment taught him that real wealth isn't about how much you have—it's about how much value you create. Instead of chasing easy wins or cutting corners, he learned to lead with integrity and influence through trust. Persuasion, used ethically, opens doors that money alone never could. It's not manipulation—it's a tool for mutual success.   Key Takeaway: Ethical persuasion is the art of aligning truth with trust. When your words honor both, "yes" becomes the natural next step.   Bio: Before 2000, he was a sales rep, looking after a large part of Australia, selling Scuba Diving equipment to retailers. He was frustrated with the level of time and effort he was putting in, wanted to be better at selling, but he didn't want to lie or cheat either.   It was then that he discovered the work of Dr Robert Cialdini, and he has had a passion for educating others about this because he knows how much time, resources, and success they are wasting without it.   Circumstances enabled him to start teaching this science to professionals with Dr Cialdini's permission since 2000. In 2023, he was invited to become a Founding Member of the Cialdini Institute and was the first Cialdini Certified Professional and Coach to be accepted in the Cialdini Institute Licensed Trainer program.   Sales is other when Ethical Persuasion is first introduced, but it is not exclusively for sales. It is about creating behaviour in others and so that applies to any situation where a goal gets reached through the agreement or compliance of others.   Ethical Persuasion is NOT manipulation A common mistake is to think that persuasion is making people do things they don't want to. Research shows that unethical use of persuasion science leads to long-term disaster, and ethical use leads to both short- and long-term success. This is why teams (and your audience) really embrace this way of communicating and use it.   Research-based Nothing you get from him is based on Patrick's gut feelings or unfounded personal experience. What we as Cialdini Certified Trainers teach is grounded in research and scientifically sound.   Also for young adults He loves sharing this with professionals, but he also has a passion to teach this to young adults before they attempt to 'convince' an employer with a predictably inefficient job application and go to an interview 'unarmed' when it comes to persuasion skills. Persuasion is a much in-demand soft skill that should be mastered early in life, rather than late in life.   When the penny drops It is engraved in his mind that eye-opening feeling he got when it sank in how easy, ethical, and powerful this science is to learn and practice. To this day, he loves seeing that in the eyes of my audience. He hopes to give your audience this same experience.   Links: Website: https://ethicalpersuasion.com.au/ Podcast 'Ethical Persuasion Unlocked' : https://ethicalpersuasion.com.au/podcast/ Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@ethicalpersuasion Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/patrick-van-der-burght/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/ethicalpersuasion/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/ethical_persuasion/ Twitter: https://x.com/yesmoreoften TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@ethicalpersuasion Book: https://yesmoreoften.com/ FREE Give-Away: Downloadable e-book (no email required, just download), and/or 7-day Influence Challenge: https://ethicalpersuasion.com.au/free-influence-persuasion/   Which of the seven principles do you naturally embody—and which one could transform your results if practiced intentionally?   #RicherSoul #EthicalPersuasion #Cialdini #Leadership #Influence #Integrity #DecisionMaking #Trust   Watch the full episode on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@richersoul Richer Soul Life Beyond Money.

Susie has a theory about a scubadiving accident Sarah had ten years ago. We wonder why anyone wears a visor. We discuss the 30 for 30 short film about Black "hand clap" games that girls play, how they originated, and why we don't continue them into adulthood. We debate the virtues of locker room nudity, why it's becoming antiquated, and why some people (including Sarah want to bring it back). Susie had an accident in an Uber, and she wants everyone to know, it was not what it looked like. We talk about the filmography and comedy of Eddie Murphy, and the new documentary that chronicles his career. Plus, Susie celebrates the death of the penny, but Sarah is feeling ambivalent.00:00 - Sarah's Scuba Panic and the Mandela Effect Theory09:26 - Debating Visors and Loving Caraway Cookware & Bakeware14:41 - Exploring the History of Black Girls' Hand Games32:32 - Susie's Embarrassing Uber Incident and Naked Etiquette39:47 - The Surprising Story of Gay Rams and Rainbow Wool46:35 - Celebrating Eddie Murphy's Diverse Filmography and Artistry56:19 - Debating the End of the Penny and Our Approach to ChangeBrain Candy Podcast Website - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/Brain Candy Podcast Book Recommendations - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/books/Brain Candy Podcast Merchandise - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/candy-store/Brain Candy Podcast Candy Club - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/product/candy-club/Brain Candy Podcast Sponsor Codes - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/support-us/Brain Candy Podcast Social Media & Platforms:Brain Candy Podcast LIVE Interactive Trivia Nights - https://www.youtube.com/@BrainCandyPodcast/streamsBrain Candy Podcast Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/braincandypodcastHost Susie Meister Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/susiemeisterHost Sarah Rice Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/imsarahriceBrain Candy Podcast on X: https://www.x.com/braincandypodBrain Candy Podcast Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/braincandy (JOIN FREE - TONS OF REALITY TV CONTENT)Brain Candy Podcast Sponsors, partnerships, & Products that we love:Visit https://auraframes.com and get $45 off Aura's best-selling Carver Mat frames - named #1 by Wirecutter - by using promo code BRAINCANDY at checkout.Visit https://www.carawayhome.com/braincandy10 to take advantage of this limited-time offer for up to 20% off your next purchase.Go to https://reliefband.com to shop the Black Friday and Cyber Monday sale and save up to 30% off sitewide.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Scuba Diving creates such an ecosystem of social activities that it is almost impossible not to be exposed to a different lifestyle and group of people.It is so life changing that it has launched many careers, is a gateway to many other careers, and I've personally witnessed FOUR pairs of divers who got married after initially meeting on a dive.It's a cheat code to meet people, especially people who would have no chance of ever crossing paths… but for diving.Finally, unlike school sports, scuba diving lasts a lifetime. It doesn't end wit the season, or when school ends. This makes it a perfect investment in family for the long haul (and is often one of the only excuses for some to travel or meet up).I spoke for an hour at Aggieland Scuba, during their Dive Expo last year while the festivities were going on. The topic was “community” created through diving. In this video I explain how scuba diving changed my life, launched my career, and how I've watched it change other people's lives. This magic happens through the endless number of moving parts that lead up to and surround the actual dive. I compare the dive itself to a firework show, and the activities leading up to the big event are what fuels such a powerful community element that isn't possible any other way.Kenny Dyal is the host of The Scuba Diving Podcast:TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@kenny_dyalInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/sweetwater_scubaFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/realkennydyalX: https://twitter.com/RealKennyDyalwww.sweetwaterscuba.com

I had way too much fun asking these renowned professional divers their opinions on some of those hot-button scuba diving topics.Everyone was such a sport about this and went for it, even when they knew these were controversial in some circles. It's also funny how different some of these opinions can vary from one diver to the next.This took place at the 2025 Scuba Show in Long Beach, CA out on the showroom floor.The Questions:Is it OK to pee in your wetsuit?What is the scariest animal for a scuba diver to encounter underwater? Triggerfish has been removed as an option since it is obviousWhat was the most beneficial scuba course taken, after completing their Open Water scuba certification?Should Scuba Certification have some kind of expiration date?Jacket style BC, Back Inflate BC, or Backplate and Wing?How do you keep your dive mask from fogging up?What one thing should be in every scuba diver's save-a-dive kit?Do divers prefer clear mask skirts or opaque (black or solid color)?Guests answering these questions include:Sarah Miller (Azul Unlimited)Steve Jamroz of Divers Alert Network / D.A.N.Dan Orr, Hall of Famer and renowned legend in diving.Greg Holt, host of Scuba RadioMyles Schwartz, host of Free Descent PodcastJared Berg, owner and founder of NEX Underwater ProductsAlexis Jabbour, founder and CEO of Buddy App and Book with BuddyBrian Benton, owner of Dive OahuEd Rasmussen, NAVY SEAL and Scubapro repMorgan Oughton and RJ, founders of Spacefish ArmyTherese Napier of Amoray Dive Resort in Key Largo, FLJason Leggatt, CEO of Shearwater Research.Cliff Richardson, who was Director of NAUI, but is not the CEO of Divers Alert Network (DAN)And Red Sullivan, who wanted to be there but couldn't make it.Special thanks to everyone who answered these questions, and the staff and crew of Scuba Show for your continued support!–Kenny Dyal is the host of The Scuba Diving Podcast:www.sweetwaterscuba.com

Is it possible for the Army guys to go in the field for a week and smell nice?  Find out, the answers to these questions and more on this weeks "sode" of The Cammo Comedy Show Podcast!If you have any funny military stories of your own that you would like to share, drop us a line at:stories@cammocomedy.com  or  Leave a voicemail at (531) 222-6146  Sadly, the voicemail will only record in 2 minute blocksWe are here to make you laugh, but behind this there is the imbedded philosophy of, "No One Left Behind." Sadly, 22 vets per day commit suicide, approximately 67,500 vets are homeless and thousands struggle with everyday life after service.  What we hope to accomplish is providing a fun place to gather that will have a similar feel to the conversations that happen at the VFW or American Legion between vets.  Since the latest generations of vets are not really going to these places anymore, we are making it happen online.  We believe that the sense of community will help some who struggle, while providing stories about the good times that we can all laugh at!An additional part of this show is capturing the oral history of the military over the past few decades, so if you happen to know a veteran who served during WW2, Korean War or Vietnam eras, we would love to hear from them.  Obviously, we want to hear stories from all eras, but we have special respect for the older generations.

Send us a textThe electrical engineers creed about soldering: "The bigger the blob, the better the job."The rock climbers creed about rope: "If you don't know the knot, tie a lot."These two sayings, unfortunately, summarize much of the recreational scuba training that is currently happening. Without an understanding of "why," instructors are showing students how to do skills and expecting them to fully learn those skills. That, however, is impossible.In this short carcast, Jeff looks at the concept of proper education and its most vital cousin: retention.For more information on the UTD Coaching Program, click here.To contact us at UTD, click here.

Lake Superior is not only the largest of the Great Lakes, but the water quality is also some of the clearest. Yet, historically, the Lake was often a dumping ground for all kinds of debris.  "Out of sight, out of mind” was an all-too-common mindset. Don Fassbender, president of Great Lakes Scuba Diving and Lake Preservation, has made it his life's mission to clean up Lake Superior's underwater world. With volunteers, including fellow divers and kayakers, he estimates 14 tons of tires have been hauled up from Marquette MIchigan's Lower Harbor. In this episode of the Lake Superior Podcast, Walt Lindala and Frida Waara talk with Don about how his mission started and the mysteries he's found below the surface. Key Takeaways + Notable Quotes:A Lifelong Passion for Diving Inspired by Jacques Cousteau“As a young man, I can recall racing home from school just so I wouldn't miss the undersea world of Jacques Cousteau.”Vintage Diving Equipment Connects Divers More Intimately with the Water“There's actually less things that can go wrong... Vintage kit would look like a tank, a regulator, some fins, maybe a wetsuit and a mask, and then you're off. No computers, no fancy gauges.”Tons of Trash are Hidden Beneath Lake Superior“We removed, what, 14 tons of tires out of Marquette Lower Harbor alone over a period of about five years. And there's still a lot of trash down there.”Removing Underwater Debris is Complex and LaboriousHeavy items, poor visibility, and underwater hazards make cleanup efforts extremely challenging.Why Tires are Prevalent in Lake Superior“Tires were used as boat bumpers for years and years…as weather wears them down…they would just string another one up in its place.”Community Involvement is Essential for Successful CleanupsVolunteers on land, in boats, and even kayaks significantly contribute to cleanup missions.Safety and Equipment Needs Drive Fundraising EffortsSpecialized gear and safety equipment are critical for diver safety and efficiency.Surprising Finds Beneath the Surface Tell Unique Stories“One of my favorite finds, a little diamond ring that was tied to a rock with a shoelace.” Every item retrieved from Lake Superior carries its own history, some humorous, some mysterious.Resources:Great Lakes Scuba Divershttps://greatlakesscubadivers.comConnect with Diver Don on Facebookhttps://www.facebook.com/DiverDonScubahttps://www.facebook.com/GreatLakesScubaDiversContact Don directly with cleanup leadsEmail: president@greatlakesscubadivers.comConnect With Us:Lake Superior Podcast Page – https://nplsf.org/podcastFacebook – https://www.facebook.com/NationalParksOfLakeSuperiorFoundationLinkedIn – https://www.linkedin.com/company/national-parks-of-lake-superior-foundationSponsors:Cafe Imports – Minneapolis-based importers of specialty green coffees since 1993, focused on sustainability.Learn more: https://cafeimports.comNational Parks of Lake Superior Foundation – Donate to protect Lake Superior's five national parks:https://nplsf.org/donateBe sure to tune in to this episode of the Lake Superior Podcast to hear Diver Don Fassbender share firsthand experiences from beneath Lake Superior's waters, the incredible teamwork required for environmental preservation, and how you can help protect the Great Lakes.
