Podcasts about Winging

On this episode, we chat with Zara Rozeboom, a driven young IQ Foiler from Curaçao now based in the Netherlands, chasing her Olympic dreams alongside her brother. From barefoot beach days in the Caribbean to mastering extreme winds in Europe, Zara opens up about her wind sports journey, the technical world of IQ Foiling, high-adrenaline races, and the family-fueled grind of elite training. She shares hilarious culture shocks, boundary-pushing sessions in 45-knot gales, and the mental edge needed for Olympic qualification. Whether you're into windsurfing, foiling, or stories of resilience and global adventure, this conversation captures the passion, strategy, and supportive vibe of the sport's rising stars.Island Upbringing to Global Racing: Growing up in Curaçao with school-to-beach routines, starting wind sports at age 8 with her brother, and adapting to Dutch winters, public transport, and wetsuits after moving at 16.IQ Foiling Essentials: A deep dive into the Olympic one-design class, including 7.3m sails for women, foils on 95cm masts, racing formats like upwind courses, downwind slaloms, and new upwind slaloms in winds from 6 to 45 knots—hitting speeds up to 50 km/h.Extreme Race Experiences: Thrilling recaps of events like Kiel with massive winds, waves, rain, and crashes; strategic racing at 80% effort to avoid time-sucking falls; and the chaos of 45-knot blasts where everyone swims but laughs about it later.Olympic Aspirations and Prep: Path to 2028 via upcoming Panam Junior Games in Paraguay (light winds on a current-filled lake); visualizing medals; recent wins for confidence; and competing in fleets of 25–79 girls against top Olympians.Training Grind and Family Bond: Daily routines of gym sessions, biking, rowing, and on-water practice; balancing university studies; traveling and pushing limits with her brother (who just scored a race win at Worlds); and the supportive, fun women's fleet that bonds off-water but competes fiercely on it.Life Lessons and Thrills: Reflections on pushing fear boundaries for growth, the excitement of high-stakes racing, how sport builds bonds and changes perspectives, and embracing the "easy" surf life amid hard work.Follow Zara on Instagram at: https://www.instagram.com/zara_surf/ for more of her foiling adventures, training updates, and Olympic journey.Looking to learn about new gear at AWSI?

Fresh off the summer racing season in Hawaii, Steve shares his firsthand experiences from high-stakes downwind foil races, gear tweaks, and the mental grit required to conquer challenging ocean channels. From hilarious mishaps to profound insights on personal growth in the sport, this conversation dives deep into the world of foiling, para-winging, and the evolving landscape of ocean racing.

Singer Nina Ljeti, from L.A.'s power quadrophonic band Kills Birds, tweets about the time a producer responded to his unrequited love for her by erasing the band's entire album; what Sonic Youth's Kim Gordon said about their song “Worthy Girl”; and opening for the Foo Fighters at what would be Taylor Hawkins' final show with the band. In this short VIDEO, Nina describes how a post-Foo Fighters show taco binge in Mexico City led to two of her bandmates unwittingly becoming "poo fighters."

If your subscription box planning feels chaotic, rushed, or downright stressful, this episode is for you. I know what it's like to be stuck in a cycle of packing this month's box while still scrambling to figure out what's going in next month's. But it doesn't have to be that way. In this Friday Fuel episode of The Launch Your Box Podcast, I'm sharing how I went from winging it to planning six months of boxes in just one hour. And how you can do it too. You'll hear the story behind my 6 in 60 Workshop, why this system works, and five simple habits that will help you plan ahead and curate with confidence. Five actionable steps to help you plan and curate your subscription boxes: • Theme First – Map out 6 clear themes or anchor ideas. • Product Partners – Make a running list of your favorite wholesalers, handmade makers, or past vendors. Revisit this list every time you plan. • Budget Guardrails – Know what you can spend per box – product cost, shipping, packaging – so you're not scrambling later. • Lead Times Matter – Give yourself 8–12 weeks to order. Custom items take longer. • Marketing – Think about how you'll tease the box. Each theme should have a built-in story you can share on social media. Join me for this episode and learn how planning ahead makes everything feel easier – from sourcing products and teasing themes to delivering a box your subscribers can't stop talking about. Ready to plan your next 6 boxes in just 60 minutes? Grab the free replay of the 6 in 60 Workshop and start curating with confidence: 6in60workshop.com You don't have to wing it anymore.

In real estate, we're expected to connect with every personality type under the sun. That usually means working really hard to match how someone else communicates. Most of us are doing it on the fly. Winging it. Pivoting mid-conversation and crossing our fingers that our style clicks with theirs. That might have cut it back in the day, but now it's a liability. What if you could walk into every client meeting already knowing how to win them over? That's exactly what myYenta gives you: the blueprint to connect, build trust, and close the deal, by aligning with your client's psychology from the start. Jay Groah knows this world inside out. He's been a practitioner, flipper, and coach for nearly two decades.  But it was one mismatched homebuying experience that sparked the idea for a tool that's now boosting conversion rates for teams, brokerages, and even MLS boards. In this episode, Jay breaks down how top agents are using personality data to reduce friction, cut dead weight, and close more deals with less time wasted on people who were never a match to begin with.   In real estate, we literally deal with 100% of the world's population. People discount our intelligence, but we expertly communicate with absolutely every personality type out there. -Jay Groah   Things You'll Learn In This Episode  The referral-killing mistake agents don't see coming You matched your client with a top-producing agent, but the deal fizzled. How do personality mismatches kill great referrals? The conversion advantage you're probably ignoring Teams using myYenta's personality alignment tool are seeing 15%+ increases in conversion. What are they doing differently, and why does it work before you ever meet the client? The truth about being a real estate chameleon We've been taught to mold ourselves to every client. But what if some personalities just aren't a good fit? Could knowing that early make you more money, not less?   Guest Bio Dr. Jay Groah is the CEO of myYenta, award-winning Realtor, serial house-flipper, and the only tech founder you'll ever meet who moonlights as Eufegenia Housefire, a divine little old lady with a flair for matchmaking (and mischief). When he's not revolutionizing how professionals connect with clients—think more referrals, more loyalty, and a lot less boring using the brilliance of AI and Personality Analysis—he's probably building wild epoxy furniture, puffing on a good cigar, or nerding out over classic cars using his metric ton of academic degrees. Serious about results, never about himself, Dr Jay lives by one rule: if it's not fun, it's not worth doing. Whether he's teaching, speaking, or just living out loud, he brings joy, curiosity, and a dash of eccentricity to everything he touches.
