    Climbing & Canadian Van Life | ft. Georgia Broderick

    In today's episode, I sat down with with Australian climber and newly solo female van lifer, Georgia Broderick. Just over a year and a half ago, Georgia moved into her 2016 Ram Promaster with her boyfriend on a unique adventure. Though she has dreams of traveling to far away climbing destinations, for now she is stationed in Squamish while working as a climbing guide and music teacher. We discussed her journey to van life, unique aspects of her build (no solar panels or fridge?!), and her and her partners plans for the future. It was incredible to hear how different her experience has been from some of the mainstream posts that often grace social media, and her take on what you truly "need" to live in a van was nothing short of refreshing.

    Facing the Fear of Failure | Mental Health & Main Character Realizations

    In today's episode, I open up about my fear of failure, and how that has been affecting my online presence for the past few weeks. Although my confidence has grown substantially over the past year, there are still days (or even weeks) where I feel as though nothing has changed. After stuffing these feelings down for the past few weeks, I finally felt ready to share what I have been going through and how I plan on moving forward both in real-life and online. Don't worry, I'm not going anywhere - things are just going to look a little bit different as I begin sharing from my authentic self as opposed to a curated image of who I thought people wanted me to be. I'm so excited for the journey that lies ahead, and hope that you are willing to take this leap of faith with me.

    Living Authentically & Taking a Stand Against Capitalism with Kalen and Bennie

    In today's episode, I got deep with a new friend and solo female van lifer, Kalen Breland from @kalenandbennie. Kalen purchased her van shortly after graduating from a Masters program, and only two weeks after receiving a medical diagnosis that changed her life. The word "strong" doesn't do her justice. We discussed her journey to van life, white privilege on the road and the need to diversify the van life community and outdoor spaces, as well as her upcoming travel plans once her build is completed. All of this and more to come! If you're enjoying the show, make sure to subscribe to listen to new episodes every other Tuesday. Looking for resources mentioned in the show?
