We live in a modern day reality show, and I don’t mean the kind just for "entertainment" purposes. Our lives have become so wrapped up in social media, and capturing everything we do so that we can share it with the outside world.

We live for the acceptance of others, for likes, popularity and acceptance. We frequent social media as our outside source of inspiration, and can’t seem to understand just why in the hell we are living on a (daily) emotional roller coaster.

Today I feel great, “I’ve got this”, “I’m smashing goals, and feel like a bad ass...” Then the next day we are trying to get the energy to get out of bed, not to mention trying to complete everything else on the list, and when we throw in the towel and binge at lunch, or bypass the gym to go home to a bottle of wine we sink down in a self loathing nightmare.... shame, regret, self hate, and feeling defeated.

Let me tell you this snowball of mental garbage, comparison, not being "good enough", being a failure, and sucking at life, WILL NOT GET BETTER unless you make it your job and get real with where the heck you are leading yourself.

Are we not all, at least to some degree, battling with the NEVER ENDING roller coaster of validation, acceptance, and envy?

If you're ready to untangle the mess tune in, and learn how to retrain your mindset, and understand Perfection Is NOT Reality.

Having experienced major trauma on her last day of deployment of her second tour in Afghanistan Kirstie's entire life changed in the matter of moments.

In this episode Kirstie opens up about the challenges she has walked through and her endless desire to continue her life and mission by helping others. 

Kirstie has founded the Kirstie Ennis Foundation in order to help give back to not only veterans, but to the disabled, kids, and women - there are "no boundaries" in giving back. 

She is on a mission to show others they have the choice to make anything they want out of life, and how tapping into your potential makes all the difference.

On this episode we decide to roll with the punches and chase a few rabbit holes, which is always easy to do when we’re together. Kristy opens up about her life growing up, and the content in this podcast is so rich we’re going to have to plan another episode to follow up.

As women it can be hard to navigate the kitchen, keep a healthy perspective on food, and maintain balance with our bodies, and we all have struggles in this area. Sometimes hearing from other women, and listening to what they’ve gone through, and overcome can help us create and accomplish successes of our own.

Kristy opens up about her struggle with weight growing up, and how the experiences she had in her younger years has helped her develop a way of life that keeps her striving for her best life.

We also dig into our favorite nutritional supplements, give tips for finding health even in later years, and outline the Wilderness Athlete 28 Day Challenge.

We talk about her first love for the outdoors, building a bonding relationship and gaining confidence with her mules, and growing up in a family that took conservation seriously.

Kristy is a woman who pushes herself to always achieve more and holds herself to a high standard when it comes to following her dreams and living intentionally.

She is one hell of an elk caller, a bad ass hunter, a passionate mentor, and a strong leader. Dive into this episode and find bits of encouragement from nutrition to the backcountry.

I wanted to cover a few topics that are very important and commonly over looked or over thought. Steven has a long history of working with woman of all ages and has a very unique male perspective of some of the struggles we face as women.

We cover:

•How women tend to spread our “bandwidth” a bit thin and leave ourselves as last on the list.

•Advice for the fellas on how to “listen to your lady” instead of trying to fix all her problems.

•The trouble of not asking for help and the power that comes along with being a little vulnerable by asking for help.

•Having too much skin in the game and forgetting about our to do list and checking in with what really fills our cup.

With the sun shining and a cool spring breeze, Steven and I talk about all the unwritten and often unseen responsibilities of busy women and how we need to focus on taking over the world with some help rather than trying to do it alone.

No matter where you are on your journey of life you have goals, desires, and hopes for your future -- but whether you are making it to the finish line or not all relies on the decisions you make, the effort you put in, and the things you are willing to do. 

If you aren't making the final cut, chances are you are standing in your own way by making excuses, justifying your actions, or sabotaging yourself somewhere along the way. STOP! 

Today we bring it to you head on, and hope to be the catalyst in STOPPING THE EXCUSES, and doing things different. 

Tune in, and soak up these words of encouragement and start smashing goals for once.

Jessica Bond and I set aside time to chat about hunting, and the undeniable passion for the outdoors, family, raising kids, starting business, and finding ourselves through the process. 

There are times in life when we wade through the trenches, and often endure hardships that we can never fully understand, but it is in those times that soul searching, and figuring out what you're made of is so important for your future. 

From the first time that I ran across this woman's Instagram profile I knew there was a spark in her that would continually inspire me, and I was right. Whether she is out on a hunt, or raising her daughter to be strong, and courageous, Jessica seems to carry around an undimmed light that encourages, and empowers others.

Rewind to a couple weeks ago when a random snow storm moved into Colorado and delayed my 6am flight out of the Denver International Airport. With so many travelers stuck at the airport, getting home 'soon' didn't look too promising.

Turns out Wes and Trent (fellow Oregon natives) from the Born and Raised Outdoors crew were also stuck in DIA on their way to hunt Wisconsin turkeys. So, great minds find some open space among the crowed and podcast.

Settled somewhere amongst displaced passengers, a few random birds in the terminal, and smudge prints on the glass overlooking the runway, we caught up on life, hunting, upcoming projects, and making the most out of ALL we are given.

Tune in and enjoy this episode.

One of the things I love the most about this episode is how different every one of us grew up, and the experiences we've had. From those who grew up in the outdoors to those who are just starting in the last year or two, I think that this will be a very relatable, and fun podcast to listen in on.

I am joined on this episode by my badass friend and hunting sister, Gina Shively of Wild and Well Fed. This woman is a master in the kitchen and I was super excited when she called to tell me she would be joining us for the weekend.

As always she shared her knowledge and passion for food, and DIY Dehydrated Backcountry Meals -- we even got to do some hands-on meal prep, yum!

As we sit down in the backyard we chat about how we balance out mom life, while still pursuing our need for the wild things, and the great outdoors. 

It can be hard to find the time to get out on a hunt, and it can be even more difficult to decide who gets to go out while the other parent stays home to take care of the family. Not to mention, getting through the occasional resentment and jealousy it can spark isn't always easy to do. We cover all of it and talk about ways to get kids involved, and excited about new outdoor experiences.

I had the honor of meeting Jessica and her family early in 2019 at the Oregon Train To Hunt event in Ashland and I was quickly impressed by her go-getter attitude and willingness to improve in her weaknesses. 

I got home and then next week got a text from her say, "I want to get stronger, and shoot better. Where do I start?" Since that day I have been lucky to bring her on as an online fitness training client and begin a friendship with her. 

Listen in as she replays the story of how she capitalized on this opportunity and how this awesome moment has built her self confidence. 

Connect with Jessica on Instagram and of course, shoot her a CONGRATS message on a job well done. You can also head over to her collaborative blog to read her story and see more pictures from the hunt at doeandarrow.com

Or maybe you go strong with new HEALTHY habits for a week or two and then "like always" you fall off track and sabotage yourself. 

In this episode, Steven and I are talking about:

Why new habits die off fast and what you can do to change the outcome.

Why people fall back into old habits so quickly and often.

How to rewrite the way you make decisions and follow-through.

Making a plan and not taking on too much too soon.

Understanding “YOUR WHY” BEFORE you do anything else.

I also include a challenge for you to help you discover what your BIG GOAL is, your driving force to achieve it, and how to stay committed. 

If you want to dig in start with this accountability challenge.

Get out a piece of paper and THOROUGHLY answer these questions:

-WHAT IS YOUR GOAL?

- WHY DO YOU WANT TO ACHIEVE IT?

-THEN DISSECT YOUR WHY, BREAKING IT DOWN AND GETTING CLOSER AND CLOSER TO THE ROOT OF IT BY ASKING YOURSELF WHY YOU WANT EACH OF THE THINGS YOU STATE.

For example: I want to feel good about my body. Why? Because I want to be more confident. Why? So that I can get out more and have a social life. Why? So that I can meet the man of my dreams. (that example may or may not apply to you, but I think that you get the idea).

-WHAT ARE THE POTENTIAL HURDLES THAT MAY ARISE WHILE YOU WORK TO ACHIEVE THIS GOAL?

-WRITE DOWN 1-2 IDEAS OF HOW YOU CAN PREVENT OR OVERCOME THOSE HURDLES/EXCUSES.

Last summer, Lora found herself circling through a new routine stateside after the dreaded COVID hit and closed down many of our international borders and forcing her to head back home to North Carolina. 

Lora shifted and decided to head out to complete some more sections of the Appalachian Trail near her home. Along the way, Lora soaked up the trail, hiked for weeks, did some soul searching, and found something that would change her life forever. 

What was meant to be a summer of exploration in the great outdoors turned to a cancer diagnosis, chemo, surgery, and life-altering moments that came when she least suspected it. 

Listen in as Lora and I talk about the moments she was diagnosed with breast cancer, how she deals with the process, mentally and physically, and what’s next for her.

TRIGGER WARNING: The stories shared in this episode stem from enduring a decade in an abusive marriage. Talk of domestic violence, physical harm, sexual assault, and other abuse is discussed.

Cindy’s journey goes way above and beyond those dark pieces of her past. She shares her recovery and how she went from being a non-hunter, to a woman whose hand is in many areas of hunting education, mentorship, and conservation. 

I believe that her mission to be a steward to the land will encourage others to think about the bigger picture when it comes to what it means to be a hunter. 

Enjoy this powerful conversation!

From her first time with a bow in her hand to starting her own archery business, Mel pours her heart out and shares her story. We also listen in as she walks us through the trial and error process of her archery journey. She even shares about how someone’s bad advice in the archery shop put her on the shooting sidelines with an injury. 

Although Mel shares many of the hurdles she has faced in her life, her openness and vulnerability are inspiring.

While social media isn’t for everyone, it is a must for some, especially when sharing your outdoor-based business, connecting with like-minded friends, and building community. 

Jon and I have not only personally been canceled from SM platforms, but we’ve also seen a big decline in engagement and exposure for some of our friends and marketing clients. 

Jon and I also unpack the hot topic, “Are there too many hunters out there?” and share more about his backstory in getting into hunting, why he and his wife just moved to Montana, and how you can step up your game as an elk hunter! (hint hint: there’s an online tool at your fingertips you can tap into and learn from the best of the best).

After meeting Paisley at my women’s Archery Camp early in 2022, I quickly became a fan of her hard working spirit, willingness to invest in herself, and the discipline she leans into to reach her goals!

Not only do we get to hear Paisley tell the story behind her very first archery elk that happened just months after attending our Archery Camps, but we also get to hear how she has rebuilt confidence in herself. 

Seeing Paisley and other women from this year's camps form new friendships, make plans, and stay connected after this summer's events is such a treat for me and keeps me inspired to host more life changing women’s events! 

Tune in and soak up the positive vibes from Paisley Wortman!

Getting out and exploring by yourself, especially as a female, can be intimidating!

Over the years I’ve talked to hundreds of women who would agree. In fact, one of the #1 things I hear is that ladies aren’t confident enough to hike, run, walk, camp, hunt, etc. by themselves!

To each of us, building confidence looks different, but here are a few tips that helped give me the boost I needed to do things solo.

Small - short or close to home adventures.

Plan - go when you have plenty of daylight, good weather, know your route. Especially important to know where you’re going if you will be in areas without service.

Prepare - take a pack with essentials, communication device, water, and sidearm (or some kind of pepper spray).

Awareness - pay attention to where you are, be present, and don’t let yourself get distracted. Also, limit using earbuds or headphones so that you can stay in tune with your surroundings.

Communicate - always let SOMEONE know where you are heading and when you’ll be back (and stick to that plan).

Trust - listen to your instincts and trust your gut without giving into fear.

Companion - take your favorite 4 legged friend or invite someone to come along. Maybe starting with a friend or two will be your gateway into more time outdoors!

DM me at heroutdoorjourney and tell me what helps you feel confident in the outdoors

Throughout the episode, a central theme of their conversation revolves around Shanelle's mantra: "Embrace Discomfort for Growth." She vividly describes moments of uncertainty and discomfort during her solo expeditions, moments that ultimately became pivotal for her personal and professional development. Shanelle eloquently explains how stepping outside of one's comfort zone is not just a challenge but an essential catalyst for growth, both as an artist and as an individual.

Shanelle shines a light on the profound impact of mentorship in her journey. She speaks fondly of her own mentors, individuals whose guidance and wisdom helped navigate the complexities of wildlife photography. These mentors not only provided technical knowledge but also imparted invaluable lessons on patience, observation, and the art of storytelling through imagery.

As the conversation deepens, Shanelle dives into the technical aspects of photography, emphasizing the importance of understanding camera settings and the nuances of natural light. Her passion for the craft is palpable as she shares tips and tricks, encouraging listeners to embark on their own photographic adventures with newfound confidence.

One of the highlights of the episode is Shanelle's discussion of her photography retreats. These immersive experiences, set against the breathtaking backdrop of Montana's wilderness, are designed to not only teach photography skills but also to foster a deeper connection with nature. Shanelle's retreats are more than just workshops; they are transformative experiences where participants are encouraged to explore their creativity, overcome challenges, and forge lasting friendships.

As the episode comes to an end, Shanelle leaves us with a powerful message: 'Every moment is an opportunity to capture the essence of life.' Her words encourage us to embrace discomfort, seek mentorship, and embark on our creative journeys with passion and purpose. But Shanelle goes beyond inspiration; she offers practical tools for photographers, sharing her '5 Key Elements To Composition' and a 'Photography Cheat Sheet.'
