There are a lot of dirty words in the English language, some rightly so. In this episode Gord, Jessica and I explore the "C Word" and dive into why it is so misunderstood in aviation and how you can use it to better yourself. Jessica shares some very personal stories as we continue our on-going conversation on mental health in aviation.

It has been 8 months since our last episode but we are back. Hear about some of the big things that have happened in the past 8 months with Gord and I. We also discuss trusting yourself and your fellow crew members. Welcome back everyone
In this episode, three seasoned aviation professionals have a very real conversation about what life is like after their plans changed both by choice and circumstance. Metaphorically speaking, even the best flight plan using the preferred routes is subject to a reroute. It is what we do with that reroute that will determine if we get to our destination or alternate.

In this episode I end up in the hot seat as Steve and Gord take the reins and interview me about my past both personally and professionally as a Pilot and Air Traffic Controller. I had no idea what was coming and since I trust both these gentlemen, I share a little more than I had planned. If you enjoy the Audio Briefings then this episode may lend a little perspective on where it all came from. If you are a new listener, we'd recommend listening to a few of the 70 past episodes first.

In this episode we start off by talking about slowing down in the airplane and have an interesting conversation about how COVID has forced us to slow down and re-evaluate how we approach life whether we like it or not. We touch on how communication has changed and share some personal stories. This is an aviation podcast but aviators are also humans and Gord and I often discover interesting parallels that apply to both flying and life on a deeper level.

11/29/2020 Cardinal Aviation Audio Briefings Episode #58 (Gord Stevens: Everyone Is Doing Their Best)
This week we are joined by Gord Stevens for part 2 of our mindfulness series. This series takes on many of the topics that have not been traditionally acceptable to talk about in an effort to shine a light on the human side of aviation. After all, airplanes don't fly themselves, people do. We discuss the power of believing that everyone is doing their best at any given moment and tackle our friend's accident head-on. You have heard about it in our past conversations but today we intentionally dive in to hopefully bring some closure to the topic.
