On this episode of Destination on the Left, Florence Li, Director of International Development for Songtsam Resorts, shares how her family-owned luxury boutique hotel collection has built its reputation by opening hidden doors to remote destinations in Tibet and Yunnan. She explains how Songtsam differentiates itself by offering immersive cultural experiences, empowering local communities through creative staffing solutions, and staying deeply committed to sustainability. Florence also highlights how the brand's mission to preserve Tibetan culture and protect the environment resonates with today's travelers seeking meaningful, soul-connected journeys. What You Will Learn in This Episode: How Florence's personal journey in hospitality prepared her to help grow Songtsam's international presence Why Songtsam positions itself as a “soft adventure” brand that connects travelers to remote and spiritual destinations The creative approach Songtsam uses to train and empower local staff in small villages Why cultural preservation, job creation, and environmental protection form the backbone of Songtsam's sustainability mission How partnerships with educational organizations have expanded opportunities for cultural exchange The ways Songtsam is responding to trends in wellness, niche experiences, and post-COVID travel behaviors Exciting new projects, including winery hotels and upcoming properties in Kunming and Lhasa Opening Hidden Doors: Immersive Travel in Remote Regions Songtsam's lodges are designed to do more than provide a luxury stay — they immerse travelers in the cultural and natural landscapes of Tibet and Yunnan. Set along the storied Tea Horse Road, each property invites guests to step into a world of tradition, heritage, and connection. Florence explains how Songtsam's “soft adventure” approach gives visitors the chance to engage deeply with local communities, from hands-on crafts to spiritual exploration. For seasoned travelers who crave meaning as much as comfort, this blend of cultural authenticity and refined hospitality opens doors to experiences that feel both rare and transformative. Florence reveals why more people are seeking out these off-the-beaten-path destinations — and how Songtsam has positioned itself to meet that growing demand. Empowering Local Communities Through Creative Staffing Solutions One of the most inspiring aspects of Songtsam's story is its commitment to employing and empowering people from the villages surrounding its properties. Florence acknowledges the challenges of building a world-class hospitality team in places where many residents have little formal education or exposure to global travel. Yet what could have been a limitation became an opportunity for innovation. By finding creative ways to train staff — including trips to see luxury hotels abroad — Songtsam helps local employees gain confidence and skills that transform not only their careers but their communities. Florence shares powerful stories of villagers who have become hotel managers, and how this model has kept jobs, income, and pride rooted in places that might otherwise lose their youth to the cities. Sustainability as a Core Commitment For Florence and Songtsam, sustainability isn't a program; it's a philosophy that shapes every decision. She describes a three-part approach that balances cultural preservation, job creation, and environmental responsibility. From reviving ancient handicrafts through guest experiences to reducing plastic waste and operating Tibet's first low-carbon hotel, Songtsam demonstrates how tourism can be both luxurious and mindful. Wellness is another key dimension of their vision. Drawing on Tibetan healing traditions, Songtsam incorporates meditation, yoga, and natural ingredients into guest experiences that nourish both body and spirit. Florence invites listeners to consider how sustainability and wellness can go hand in hand — not just as trends, but as guiding principles that enrich travel for both visitors and host communities.

A Journey of a Thousand Miles Must Begin With a Single Step -Lao Tzu.   Traveling is exciting but can also be stressful. Packing the right clothing for the weather, the events, and what makes you feel amazing. You try to pack neatly and concisely so you can pack everything you want and need. As an amputee, things become a little more confusing and worrisome. What will you need? What MUST come with? What if this happens or that happens? All of a sudden, packing and traveling becomes almost impossible. How will you ever pack for every situation with the space you have? There are so many rules with TSA and airports. There are so many unknowns in hotels. Knowing how to navigate these specifics with travel comes with experience. You learn more, for your unique situation, as you go but we can also help each other as we gain our own understanding and experiences. Today I share my tips and tricks and my own experiences from the years of traveling, especially by plane, to help you on your own journey in hopes that you can enjoy your time more and worry less. As you travel more you will become less worried about the process and be able to focus on the trip, and enjoy making memories. You will find ways to make each trip a little more efficient and packing a little more streamlined. If you are traveling soon, by plane, give yourself plenty of time the first few trips so you don't feel rushed or miss your flight. Don't be too proud to use a wheelchair as you go through airports, and make sure you bring your basic amputee necessities. I kept a list that I accumulated as I went (things I realized I needed but never thought of or forgot in the beginning), this way I could check off the items I needed each time I packed for a trip. It eventually became unnecessary after traveling many times over the years. Traveling should be a way to unwind and enjoy life after all you've been through. When you're ready to begin travels, don't be held back by fears, just charge forward and live! It's time to experience life and move forward from your amputation. Go enjoy the world and make memories! "A ship in harbor is safe, but that is not what ships are built for." -John A. Shedd     You were built for more than sitting around and wishing for more. You were meant to experience it! Go out and enjoy these moments now and chase down those dreams!   Go out, Warriors, and explore the world. You deserve it! And as always, Be Healthy, Be Happy, Be YOU!!!   Much love,    

True Crime Tuesday Presents Crime And Unusual Punishment: The Psychological Realities Of Federal Prison w/Former Psychologist/Author, Paul Smith! Paul Smith was a clinical psychologist sentenced to 51 months for healthcare fraud and in his new book, confronts the harsh realities of federal prison. Incarcerated amid the chaos of the COVID pandemic, he endured a relentless odyssey through eight different prison facilities, caught in a near-perpetual cycle of transfer. Through his expert lens, CRUEL AND UNUSUAL PUNISHMENT: A Memoir of the Psychological Realities of Federal Prison unveils the stark truth of an uncivilized, harsh, and insane system that erodes the very essence of humanity. The author reveals a grim truth: extended exposure to the cruel environment of prison—crafted by government policy and the ruthless prisoner code—strips away humanity, pushing individuals toward savagery. Drawing from his own struggle to preserve his sense of self and the hard-earned wisdom of those who survived years of confinement, he offers a raw, introspective exploration of survival under psychological siege. On today's episode, we sit down with Paul and talk to him about the psychological effects of the prison system on the average inmate, whether every inmate is redeemable, and changing over the prison system from a punitive system to a truly reformative one and what model should be used as an example. We also relive Paul's story and recall the pitfalls that led to his downfall... PLUS DUMB CRIMES/STUPID CRIMINALS WITH JESSICA FREEBURG!

On this Live Greatly podcast episode, Kristel Bauer sits down with Margaret C. Andrews, Harvard Instructor and Author of Manage Yourself to Lead Others: Why Great Leadership Begins with Self-Understanding. Kristel and Margaret discuss the concept of managing up, building self-awareness and lots more. Tune in now!  Key Takeaways From This Episode: A look into Margaret's book, MANAGE YOURSELF TO LEAD OTHERS: Why Great Leadership Begins with Self-Understanding The importance of understanding yourself  Tips for self-reflection Ways to give and receive constructive feedback A look into managing up The importance of thinking like a partner ABOUT MARGARET C. ANDREWS: Margaret teaches a variety of leadership courses and professional and executive programs at Harvard University and is the founder of the MYLO Center, a private leadership development firm. Her MYLO (Manage Yourself to Lead Others) course has had a wait list every time it's been taught for over a decade and has become the most popular professional development program at Harvard. Margaret's expertise is grounded her own experience—a previous boss once told her that while her business results were great, her interpersonal skills were highly lacking. The exact phrase he used was, “you're not self-aware.” To change, Margaret looked for insight from famous leaders to management studies to disciplines like philosophy and psychology. At the end of the day, she found that the basis for powerful, effective leadership comes from within—from understanding yourself and then managing yourself toward the leader you want to become—also known MYLO. Margaret has taken her MYLO approach and distilled it into her first book, MANAGE YOURSELF TO LEAD OTHERS: Why Great Leadership Begins with Self-Understanding (Basic Venture; September 16, 2025).

Cartagena is the eternal city of Colombian tourism. The Old City, the UNESCO World Heritage ramparts and colonial streets are protected from the ills befalling contemporary Colombia and so, this picturesque and sophisticated destination, with direct international flights from Europe and the United States, is frequently adorning the covers of glossy travel magazines. However, there is more to Cartagena, beyond the chic rooftop bars, the colonial architecture and the incredible restaurants. Travel is different now visitors demand authenticity and experiential options. And, this is where Nina Schlieper of Alternate Travel Cartagena and Bruce McLean of BNB Colombia Tours come in. Working with the local communities and within the area of La Boquilla - a small fishing village outside of Cartagena - Nina's agency works to empower women, teach the heritage and history of the region and generate income and employment in this part of the Caribbean coast. Tune in to this excellent and upbeat episode of the Colombia Calling podcast. https://www.alternativetravelcartagena.com/home/ https://bnbcolombia.com   The Colombia Briefing is reported by Emily Hart. https://harte.substack.com

At age 55, Belgian runner Hilde Dosogne set out to break boundaries — and did just that.  In 2024, she ran 366 marathons in 366 days, earning her the title of Guinness World Record holder for most consecutive marathons in a year.  What makes Hilde's journey so extraordinary is not just the distance she covered, but the relentless dedication she showed while working part-time and managing her daily life with laser-focused discipline. Known as Marathon Woman 366, Hilde didn't grow up in a sporty family. In fact, she didn't seriously take up running until her 40s. But once she did, she never looked back — moving from her first marathon with her husband in 2013 to ultra events like the Marathon des Sables and the legendary Spartathlon in Greece. Inspired by endurance runner Candice Burt, who ran an ultra a day, Hilde set a goal that was bold yet (just) manageable alongside her career — a marathon every single day for an entire year.  From battling injuries and illness, to running through Belgian storms and even dislocating a finger mid-run, Hilde's story is one of mental toughness, resilience, and unwavering self-belief. In this episode, Hilde shares: Why she decided to take on this incredible challenge How she structured her days and managed recovery The highs and lows of running every single day The mental strategies that helped her keep going Her thoughts on aging, performance, and redefining what's possible at 55 The deep sense of joy and freedom she finds in running Hilde's story is a reminder that it's never too late to start something extraordinary — and that the only limits are the ones we place on ourselves.  New episodes of the Tough Girl Podcast drop every Tuesday at 7 AM UK time. Subscribe and be inspired by stories of women pushing their physical and mental limits across adventure, endurance, and exploration.  Support the mission to increase the visibility of female role models in adventure and sport: www.patreon.com/toughgirlpodcast Show notes Who is Hilde Living in Belgium 55 years old Married with 4 children aged between 18 and 26 years old Working in a chemical company and being passionate about running Being known as Marathon Woman 366 Not growing up in a sporty family and not being encouraged to do sports when she was younger Getting into running after her children were growing up  Being focused on building up her career and raising her children  Reaching 40 years old and wanting to lose some weight and deciding to run a marathon with her husband in 2013 How her running progressed and wanting to run more marathons and then wanting to run faster and then further Getting a lot of satisfaction from achieving her goals and pushing her limits Deciding to run the coastline of Belgium - 74km Wanting to know what else she could do  Deciding to run the Marathon des Sables in Morocco  Struggling with sleep in the open tent, and dealing with the sandstorm and the noisy people in the tent Running Spartathlon Ultra Race  Running from Athens to Sparta - having 36 hrs to complete the race  Needing to qualify for the Spartathlon Running 170km in 24 hrs in 2022 Running the race again in 2023 and running 1 hr faster than the year before Being inspired by Candice Burt running an ultra marathon everyday  Realising that running an ultra marathon a day would take up too much time everyday Deciding to run a marathon everyday and break a world record  Feeling that running a marathon everyday would be achievable while working at the same time Starting to plan for the event in summer 2024 - wanting to run with other people  Applying to Guinness World Records and figuring out the logistics for evidence  The time commitment involved and trying to run with other people  Being commitment to the hours she was running  The hard days, especially when she was feeling sick  Dealing with stomach pain and covid.  Falling while running and dislocating her finger  Dealing with bad weather especially at the start of the year  Struggling with her sleep and feeling too excited from the running both physically and emotionally  Sleeping during her lunch break Needing to have her days very strictly scheduled  The time commitment of running, social media and the info for Guinness World Records The mindset of taking on a daily challenge like this Her resilience coming from having a strict childhood and being very disciplined Seeing her running as a job  Feeling gratitude for while she was running  Raising funds for breast cancer patients  Being supported by the people who ran with her and also supported via social media  Daily recovery strategies - having a recovery shake, baths, stretching and a massage 1x per week Being supported by her husband in the house  Getting to the end of 366 marathons Running the last week in pain, due to a hamstring injury  Preparing an event for the last day Her body was telling her to stop running  Stopping running on the 1st January 2025  Feeling very happy that it was over!

Stretching, foam rolling, core stability exercises and bike riding The biggest lessons learned from taking on this challenge Why the human body can do much more than what we think Doing this challenge at 55 years old Running an average time of 4hrs 5 mins for each marathon Why you can start running at any age Training for the Spartathlon 2025 with a running coach  Running coach Benny Fisher   How to connect with Hilde on line Words of advice for runners The mind is stronger than the body If you think you can't anymore, you have to think you can do it. Even if you are at a low point in a race. You need to know that it can get better. Why the only reason to stop is if you have a serious injury. Believe that it can get better Think about how you will feel when you give up  Think about the people that support you and they will be very happy that you finish and disappointed if you don't Do it for a charity, so you know you are not only doing it for yourself.  You have to be strong psychically and mentally Prepare yourself for the difficult moments in the race and think through all the different scenarios that could happen   Social Media Website: www.hildedosogne.be/en  Instagram: @marathonwoman366/  Facebook: @marathonwoman.2024  Strava: https://www.strava.com/athletes/51029211

Ever found yourself in a foreign country, struggling to communicate the most basic needs? That feeling of helplessness disappears when you learn even a handful of phrases in the local language. In this enlightening episode, we welcome language expert David Durham who transforms our understanding of Italian travel communication with practical, easy-to-learn phrases that will elevate your next Italian adventure.David begins with a touching personal story about Italian hospitality that sets the tone for why learning the language matters. When he and his wife missed a bus in the Italian countryside, a stranger not only gave them a ride but invited them to dinner—a perfect illustration of the warmth travelers can experience when they engage authentically with locals.Beyond the typical tourist phrases, David dives into cultural nuances that make all the difference. He explains the crucial distinction between formal and familiar address (when to use "scusi" versus "scusa"), teaches us that ordering "un latte" will get you plain milk instead of coffee, and reveals that many Italian food words we know are actually plural forms (the singular of "cannoli" is "cannolo"!). These insights don't just help you communicate—they demonstrate respect and cultural awareness.From restaurant etiquette to asking for directions, each phrase comes with pronunciation guidance and cultural context. Whether you're learning how to politely order "un caffè" or discover the difference between "acqua naturale" and "acqua frizzante," you'll gain confidence to navigate Italy beyond the tourist traps. As David notes, making even a small effort to speak Italian helps break the unfortunate stereotype of the "loud American" that many Europeans have come to expect.Ready to transform your travel experience? Listen now, practice these phrases, and discover how a little linguistic effort creates meaningful connections. Want more language learning resources?

Learn more about tours at IrelandByBike.com Donegal Coast 1 Day Self-guided Electric Bike Tour When travelers dream of Ireland, names like Dublin, Galway, and the Ring of Kerry often come to mind. But on Ireland's wild northwest edge lies a county that quietly outshines them all: Donegal. Rugged and soulful, this region is home to towering cliffs, glacial valleys, and a living Gaelic culture where fiddle music and friendly welcomes are part of everyday life. If you've ever wanted to explore Ireland beyond the usual highlights, this episode is your invitation. Donegal offers something rare: a landscape as dramatic as its culture is warm. Whether you cycle with Seamus, hike along the cliffs, or sip a pint at a music session, you'll find an Ireland that still feels wild, authentic, and deeply welcoming. In this episode of the Sunshine Travelers Podcast, we slow down to savor Donegal's unique spirit with local guest Seamus Gallagher, who runs Ireland by Bike with his wife, Nora, in the village of Carrick. Their self-guided cycling tours connect travelers to Donegal's stunning landscapes and small villages—but Seamus' stories go far beyond the bike. What You'll Discover in This Episode: Why Donegal remains one of Ireland's least-visited—and most authentic—counties The secret behind Donegal's distinct fiddle music and Gaelic dialect What it's like to cycle to Sliabh Liag Cliffs, which rival the Cliffs of Moher The difference between e-bikes in Ireland and the U.S.—and why pedal-assist makes exploring easier Hidden gems like Granny Valley and Glencolmcille Tips for catching a traditional pub session Gaelic phrases like Céad Míle Fáilte (“100,000 welcomes”) and Sláinte (“cheers”) Why staying in family-run B&Bs creates the most meaningful connections How slowing down—walking, cycling, and lingering—leads to the richest travel experiences Learn more about tours at IrelandByBike.com Other Episodes You'll Love: Episode 132 - Northern Ireland Travel Guide: Belfast, Dark Hedges, Causeway Coastal Route & Giant's Causeway Episode 18: Dublin & Southern Ireland Road Trip Episode 113 - Our Experience Walking Through Umbria Italy with MACS Adventure Resources & Links Want curated travel deals every week?

Exorcism. When it's not psychological. How the Church actually decides. Catholic exorcist Fr. John lays out the real process: medical & psychological rule-outs, bishop oversight, and when a case moves from deliverance to the Rite of Exorcism. We cover incubus/succubus reports, why “demons travel in packs,” practical tools (holy water, blessed salt), and the red flags that say a team is needed.

Ever notice how the ground beneath your feet changes when hiking? From sandy paths to packed dirt trails, paved walkways to rocky terrain—each surface requires a different approach and energy level. What if these changing terrains hold wisdom about the type of travel that would serve you best right now?During a recent solo road trip to West Texas that didn't quite go according to plan, I discovered a powerful metaphor while hiking that perfectly illustrates the relationship between life's seasons and our travel needs. Those sandy stretches where progress feels slow and tiring? They might be signaling you need a trip centered around your passions—music, cooking, hiking—something to restore the joy that daily challenges are slowly depleting. Walking comfortably on packed dirt trails with steady momentum? Your stable life foundation makes you perfectly suited for ambitious multi-city tours or country exploration.Then there are those moments we find ourselves on autopilot, so overwhelmed we're just trying to survive each day. Surprisingly, these "paved pathway" phases call for wellness retreats or spa getaways—controlled environments that provide restoration without requiring you to make decisions. And those rocky paths demanding your constant attention? When life has you carefully navigating multiple challenges, cruises or organized group tours remove the burden of planning while still giving you the escape you desperately need.This isn't about running away from life's difficulties but gaining fresh perspectives that transform how we navigate them upon return. In my one-on-one travel coaching, we assess exactly where you are in life's journey and design travel experiences that meet you right where you stand. Whether you're trudging through sand or picking your way across rocks, there's a perfect travel experience waiting for you.Ready to discover what terrain you're walking and what type of travel would serve you best?
