      <title>Goals with Elizabeth Irving</title>
      <description>From singing dreams to big-stage moments, in this episode we sit down with Elizabeth Irving to talk about goals. She shares what it feels like to perform under pressure — and how butterflies can become jet fuel. This conversation is about ambition, timing, resilience, and staying true to yourself while your goals evolve. 

We dive into:


  Remembering the little girl who first had the dream• Using nerves as energy instead of fear

      <title>Goals with Catherine Dorazio</title>
      <description>In this episode, we sit down with financial leader and former competitive snowboarder Catherine Dorazio to talk about goals that evolve with purpose.

We unpack:


  The mindset shift from sport to finance

  Proving yourself in new rooms

  Why community is your greatest asset

  Turning “I failed” into “I learned”

  Celebrating milestones instead of skipping past them


We also dive into resilience, finding your unique superpower, incremental progress you can control, and why reflection, sometimes just a quiet walk, is where real growth happens.

      <title>Goals with Olympic Champion Katie Vincent, OLY</title>
      <description>In this episode we sit down with one of the most dominant forces in women’s canoe sprint, Olympic Champion Katie Vincent. 

In this GOALS series conversation, we dive into:


  Building a development plan with coaches.

  Staying patient in a sport where races last under two minutes.

  Setting realistic goals while chasing big dreams.

  The technical and mental side of race-day execution.

  Why community and connection matter just as much as medals.

  And her reminder when goals feel far away: enjoy the journey.


We also talk about women entering the Olympic program, funding shifts, growth in the sport, mental health, and how celebrations matter just as much as the grind.

  Building a development plan with coaches.

  Staying patient in a sport where races last under two minutes.

  Setting realistic goals while chasing big dreams.

  The technical and mental side of race-day execution.

      <title> Goals with Olympic Champion Chandra Crawford, OLY</title>
      <description>In this episode we sit down with Olympic Champion Chandra Crawford, who stunned the 2006 Winter Games by winning gold in the women’s sprint in cross-country skiing. 

A three-time Olympian with multiple World Cup podiums, Chandra became known not only for her speed, but for her resilience, returning from surgery and setbacks with the same fire that first put her on top of the podium. But this conversation goes far beyond medals.

We talk about:


  Staying relaxed under Olympic pressure

  Journaling mental, physical, technical, and emotional goals

  Turning negative questions into powerful ones

  Evaluating “what went well” instead of what went wrong

  Finding joy in discomfort when goals feel far away

      <title> Goals with Dr. Michael Naraine</title>
      <description>In this GOALS series DROP IN, Mercedes sits down with Dr. Michael Naraine to talk about how goals are set, reset, and sometimes completely rewritten. 

From late nights and coffee-fuelled prep to boardrooms and classrooms, Mike shares how trusting the process helped him shift from a law-school path to becoming a professor, sport business leader, and board chair.

We unpack:


  Why preparation matters as much as performance

  How to deal with goal drift when life changes

  The balance between education and lived experience

  Letting go of what you can’t control—and doubling down on mindset

  Why goals should come after your why, values, and purpose

  At the heart of it all: growth, adaptability, and staying true to who you are over time.


Because sometimes the real win isn’t the original goal—it’s having the courage to rewrite it.

      <title>Goals with Author Candace MacPhie</title>
      <description>In this episode we sit down with Candace MacPhie, author and storyteller, to talk about goals. She opens up about the behind-the-scenes reality of writing books—daily discipline, staying accountable to readers, and learning how to grow without constantly needing feedback.

We talk about short-term goals like writing six pages a day, long-term vision, and why an “airy fairy attitude” doesn’t work when you’re serious about what you want. Candace also shares the importance of finding the right people in your corner—especially the ones who will give you real feedback, not just compliments.

This conversation is full of honesty, patience, vulnerability, and a reminder we all need: if a goal isn’t working, it’s okay to change it—without giving up on yourself.

Get ready to laugh, listen, and learn when you DROP IN!

      <title>Whistler Kids II: Intro with Mercedes Nicoll, OLY</title>
      <link>https://shows.acast.com/dropping-in/episodes/662568eaa5098900121e7443</link>
      <description>Take 2, this is the second series of Whistler kids!
Whistler gets a lot of visitors, but for those that don’t know we have almost 12,000 residents, two elementary schools, one private school, and one high school in this pretty sweet community we call Whistler.
Whistler does produce a lot of Olympians and athletes. I’m excited to share a second series of Whistler Kids with you.
I’ll be chatting with a diverse group of Whistler Kids who grew up in our small Canadian Mountain town, from writers to Olympians, Business leaders and all-round talented people who have come out of our town Whistler.
