Czech police vandalised car in Ostrava but it was on Andrej Babish Andrej Babiš request
https://ausertimes.blogspot.com/2020/09/czech-police-vandalized-car-in-ostrava.html
Andrej Babish Czech prime minster used police to vandalize rob my car and his psychological methods were indifferent from those seen at Polish landlords and employers who also claimed were destroying my property using directed energy weapons for my sake and would help me only if I would keep mouths shut.
At this point and time, truth is running through my brain about police involvement into MK Ultra - their promises on what they will do and uncertainty to what degree Babish was involved in this ordeal, but it becomes clear once in Slovenia(memories opened entirely about what I was promised and by whom) on who organized whole thing.
WHAT HAPPENED AT OSTRAVICA IN CZECH REPUBLIC HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH AMERICAN HOLLYWOOD OTHER THAN ANGER FROM HOLLYWOOD'S SIDE AGAINST CZECH POLITIC ONCE BOYS' TRIP ABROAD ENDED IN 2008 OR SO AND THEY LEARNED ABOUT WHAT TRUMP'S ASSSISTANS PREPARED FOR ME IN THERE AT THIS VERY DAM WHERE HOLLYWOODERS LEFT BEHIND TRACES OF PRESENCE IS HOW I WAS AT LEAST BRAINWASHED. THEY USED ONE INDIVIDUAL WHO PROBABLY WAS JUST AN EMITATION OF HOLLYWOOD ACTOR TO RAISE ANGER ISSUES IN ME AGAINST HOLLYWOOD.
HOLLYWOOD ACTORS I LEARNED FROM OSTRAVICA PROHIBITED FROM VISITING OR GETTING ANYWHERE NEAR ME BY US GOVERNMENT LITERALY. COUNTRY OF BRAVE AND FREE NOT SO FREE AFTERALL !!!
Trench Leadership: A Podcast From the Front. EP64 hosted by Simon Kardynal. Putting Fear Into Perspective featuring Richard Blank
HELPING EMERGING LEADERS BUILD UPON THEIR LEADERSHIP FOUNDATION.Emerging leaders carry the burden of leading ‘in the trenches’, often feeling overwhelmed as they travel along their new role as the leader. In Trench Leadership: A Podcast From the Front, I use my personal and professional experience, my education (Master of Arts in Leadership), and guests to provide advice, inspiration, and practical tools to help emerging leaders find their path right in the trenches, helping them be the leader they want to be.
Fear is the most basic of human instincts. We need it to tell us when to be cognizant of impending danger.
The challenge with fear is that it can, and wants to, take over. Fear wants to keep us inside our comfort zones, keep us safe, secure in the knowledge that if we don’t push ourselves, we can’t get hurt.
But the question is, how can we, as leaders, harness the power of fear to not only survive, but thrive?
And so, in this episode, you’ll hear from Richard Blank, CEO for Costa Rica’s Call Centre, who will talk about his experiences with fear in the workplace. Richard will use his personal and professional examples to talk about how emerging leaders can live with their fear, use it to create strong and powerful teams. Lastly, Richard will give practical advice to leaders so they can use their fear to help themselves and their teams thrive.

My Professional Background
I’m a Canadian, eh! who retired from the Canadian Armed Forces as an aircraft maintenance superintendent at the rank of Master Warrant Officer. I completed 26+ in the regular force, experiencing multiple postings, exercises, and domestic and international deployments.
I’ve since joined the RCAF Reserves, humbled to be the Squadron Warrant Officer with 412 (T) Sqn, located in Canada’s national capital city, Ottawa, Ontario.
I also work as a contract manager at a Canadian contracting company called Calian Group Inc., providing contract management services to contractors and clients.
I hold a Master of Arts in Leadership degree from Royal Roads University where I found my passion to help emerging leaders create strong foundations as they embark on their leadership journey.
About Me Personally
I’m a father and husband who lives in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada. My daughter is in university and she wants to become a veterinarian. Her intense dedication and passion for wanting to help animals is fuelling her, and she is on her way to achieving that goal.
My wife is a Senior Non-Commissioned Member in the Royal Canadian Air Force and has split her time between being a reservist and regular force member, and putting up with my non-stop ideas.
My passions include being a private pilot, runner, building custom poker tables, and riding my motorcycle.
I also enjoy speaking to anyone that will listen about the benefits of education (formal and informal) for leaders at all levels.
Formal Leadership Education - Royal Roads University and the Master of Arts in Leadership Degree Program
Listeners of the show will have heard, often, that my path to creating this podcast, my passion to help emerging leaders, started with my acceptance in the Master of Arts in Leadership program at Royal Roads University.
A fun fact is that many people have seen part of the Royal Roads campus without even knowing it. How so? If you are an MCU or Deadpool fan, then you have seen Royal Roads. The X-Men’s secret headquarters is none other Hatley castle, which is one of the centrepieces of the campus at RRU. Google it, you’ll see the castle, pretty neat, huh?
The International Society of Military Sciences (ISMS)
The purpose of this organisation is to build a network for the creation, development, exchange and diffusion of research and knowledge about war, conflict management and peace support efforts. The society hosts an annual conference, and one or more workshops per year.
The ISMS is helping to strengthen NCM corps, providing a means for international military academies to cooperate in the development of Non-Commissioned Members (NCM).
For me, the ISMS helps me continue to advocate for NCM, specifically within the Canadian Armed Forces.
Mindfulness Techniques
Listen, we get it. Everyone says that to be an effective leaders, we need to manage our stress. And ‘they’ aren’t wrong, but the missing component is that relieving that stress usually means a release long after the stressful moment has passed by.
Trench Leadership: A Podcast From the Front is humbled to have been listed as #8 for Canadian leadership-themed podcasts for 2022.
I have spent my professional career in the Canadian Armed Forces for over 26 years in the regular force. In 2020, I retired to take on a new role with the Calian Group as a Contract Manager. In 2022, I re-joined the CAF as a Primary Reservist, humbly taking the role as Squadron Warrant Officer at 412 (Transport) Squadron.
I joined the Canadian Armed Forces in 1994 as an infantry soldier; however, in 1999, I switched to the Royal Canadian Air Force as an Aircraft Structures Technician (think auto body for airplanes but much cooler). In 2021, I retired as an Aircraft Maintenance Superintendent with the rank of Master Warrant Officer, employed as a Career Manager. I was responsible for the career management of approximately 1,145 people. I was also responsible to ensure that the right people, with the right qualifications, were placed within the right squadrons at the right time.
Due to my organizational skills, I excel in high-stress environments where I thrive on the challenge of solving complex problems on time and within budget.
I am adept at drafting clear and concise documentation. I am a skilled orator who is often requested by my higher chain of command to deliver briefings and speeches to small and large groups of people.
I am officially bilingual (French and English). I hold a Government of Canada accredited second language profile (French) of C- Comprehension, B - Writing, B - Oral Interaction. I am able to easily converse in both languages and I can prepare comprehensive reports in either language.
I have experience as a program manager where I was responsible for budgetary requirements, project milestones and collaborating with stakeholders from many different organizations.
In 2021, I completed a Master of Arts in Leadership from Royal Roads University. It is this education, coupled with the extensive leadership experience that has made me the adaptable, clear thinking, reliable leader and father that I am today.

Peter Wright:
As co-host of The Yakking Show audio and video podcast, for our business channel, I interview guests to provide actionable business tips and ideas for our audience of SME owners and entrepreneurs.
On the Harmony: Your Path To Wholeness channel, we interview guests for tips and ideas about healthy living, alternate health, holistic health, wellness and fitness.
In my public speaking and writing roles, I speak and write about life, health, and overcoming adversity.
My life has been an amazing adventure, living in 3 countries in Southern Africa, traveling to and doing business in many more.
My working career has included marketing management in small and large corporations, starting and running several of my own businesses before returning to Zimbabwe to farm for 10 years.
I suffered 3 years of intimidation and death threats during the Zimbabwe government's illegal farm takeovers, eventually being unlawfully arrested, rigorously interrogated, and detained by police.
After being released I was prevented from returning to my farm. I left Zimbabwe in 2004 with only 2 suitcases to start over in Canada.
Specialties: My challenging and often dangerous experiences in Africa have given me a unique ability for survival and recovery. It has given me a wealth of experiences to enrich my writing and weave compelling stories
It's not what happens to you in life, it's what you do about it that counts.

Kathleen Beauvais
Podcast host that is guiding you on your path to wholeness.
I am a co-host of The Yakking Show along with my wonderful colleague, Peter Wright. This is a captivating podcast with a keen interest in all things health-related.
Peter and I are thrilled to co-host alongside experts in health, fitness, alternate health, holistic living, meditation, and mindfulness. This is a platform for thought-provoking conversations and valuable insights, empowering our listeners to enhance their overall well-being and achieve harmony in their lives.
If you are passionate about holistic living and personal growth, I invite you to connect with me and join the conversation on The Yakking Show. Let's inspire and empower each other to reach new heights of health and well-being.
Peter Wright:
As co-host of The Yakking Show audio and video podcast, for our business channel, I interview guests to provide actionable business tips and ideas for our audience of SME owners and entrepreneurs.
On the Harmony: Your Path To Wholeness channel, we interview guests for tips and ideas about healthy living, alternate health, holistic health, wellness and fitness.
In my public speaking and writing roles, I speak and write about life, health, and overcoming adversity.
My life has been an amazing adventure, living in 3 countries in Southern Africa, traveling to and doing business in many more.
My working career has included marketing management in small and large corporations, starting and running several of my own businesses before returning to Zimbabwe to farm for 10 years.
I suffered 3 years of intimidation and death threats during the Zimbabwe government's illegal farm takeovers, eventually being unlawfully arrested, rigorously interrogated, and detained by police.
After being released I was prevented from returning to my farm. I left Zimbabwe in 2004 with only 2 suitcases to start over in Canada.
Specialties: My challenging and often dangerous experiences in Africa have given me a unique ability for survival and recovery. It has given me a wealth of experiences to enrich my writing and weave compelling stories
It's not what happens to you in life, it's what you do about it that counts.

It's about navigating this crazy thing called life and finding out what is possible for yourself--in business AND in personal development! You deserve everything good anyway so why not make sure it happens through taking charge of YOUR compass path?
Having conversations with others that are productive involve more than just speaking, asking questions and providing answers. It’s even more than just listening and asking more questions.
It’s about providing a sense of knowing that you hear and understand what the other person is saying, and whether or not you can provide a real solution or assistance.

Hi, I'm James, an engineer working for an electric car company. My job is to help make vehicles as efficient as possible by making their shape travel through the air more easily.
My journey into becoming more sustainable and conscious grew out of my experience as an engineer. I often look for the best ways to get the most out of everything I use and not waste anything. This grew into a passion for reducing waste in my life and trying to reduce my contribution to the global climate crisis.
I started this blog during the global pandemic in 2020 - I love to travel and explore but I also love the planet we live on, and want to leave it in a better state than I found it. No easy feat I know, but without trying we have no hope!
Please join me on my journey; in growing, learning from mistakes and discovering some great ways to reduce my impact, whilst finding joy and adventure from the experiences.
