    158. Changing Cultural Perceptions of Mental Health with Drew Petersen

    Today's episode discusses sensitive topics related to mental health and suicide. If you or someone you know is struggling, we encourage you to reach out for help. Remember, you are not alone, and resources are available to support you. If you are in the United States, you can contact the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline at 988. For those outside the U.S., please contact local mental health services or helplines. We hope this conversation sheds light on the importance of mental health awareness and encourages open dialogue within our communities. Mental Health First Aid Resources: https://www.mentalhealthfirstaid.org/mental-health-resources/ In episode 158, we have a powerful conversation about mental health in the outdoor community with, Drew Petersen, the creator of Feel It All, a film that explores the intersection of mental health struggles and ultramarathon running.  We’ll hear about the personal journey behind the film, the challenges facing mountain communities, and the critical role outdoor athletes can play in changing the stigma around mental health.  Drew Petersen is a professional skier and passionate ultrarunner who is on a mission to change our culture surrounding mental health. He blends his athletic adventures—ranging from skiing peaks in the backcountry to running 100 miles—with his storytelling as a writer, filmmaker, and speaker in order to bring others along for the ride and to advocate for what he cares most about. As a skier, he has graced magazine covers and starred in dozens of award-winning ski films. His writing has appeared in Outside Magazine, Powder Magazine, SKI Magazine, and more publications. In 2022, Drew produced, co-directed, and starred in Ups and Downs a mold-breaking film that mirrors the mountains and valleys of ski touring with his own mental health journey. His newest film Feel It All chronicles running the Leadville 100, one of the most iconic 100-mile ultramarathons in the world, through the peaks he has skied surrounding the course and the deep, mental health goal that drives him to pursue both audacious athletic goals and a full life.

    Trump Wins, and the Climate Loses: Thoughts on the 2024 Election Results

    We know the climate fight specifically just got a whole lot harder. Trump’s back in the White House, and with Republicans holding the Senate, we’re facing a serious uphill battle.  We’re talking about a president who’s called climate change a "hoax," pulled the U.S. out of the Paris Agreement, and rolled back major environmental protections like the Clean Air Act.  He’s promised to open up more drilling, and he’s even said he’ll stop offshore wind energy projects on day one. Add to that his plan to gut the EPA and pull funding from clean energy programs... it's not looking good for the climate. But here’s the thing—we can’t afford to tap out.  So, take a breath. Remember your why. Get outside, take in some fresh air, and give yourself space to process. Don’t forget to check in on your people. Some folks might be struggling more than others right now, and that’s where community comes in. We might not agree on everything, but we’re in this together. And lastly, don’t disengage. The fight isn’t over—it’s just going to look a little different right now.

    156. Why ISLE Paddle Boards is Saying No to PVC with Jimmy Blakeney

    Unfortunately, we use a lot of toxic materials in the outdoor industry and have for some time.  This reliance on synthetic and sometimes harmful materials has seen some major shifts due to regulations, but there are always some brands at the forefront of big changes.  One change we're seeing in the watersports industry is the phase-out or move away from using PVC.  In episode 156 of the Outdoor Minimalist podcast, we explore what PVC is, why it's been a popular choice for inflatable paddle boards, and the environmental concerns associated with its production and use.  To help break down these talking points and share a behind-the-scenes look at what it takes for a brand to make these types of material changes, I sat down to chat with Jimmy Blakeney. Jimmy has stayed true to his passion for board sports and paddle sports for his entire life, even when it meant living in a van down by the river and budgeting $10 a day for food just to spend more time on board and in boat. His stubbornness led to full time sponsored athlete status for 10 years and a US National Championship title, interspersed with gigs in every facet of the business side of things, from marketing and branding to product design, sales, logistics, customer service and more. He's currently President and product designer at ISLE, where he tries to balance his brain's inability to stop focusing on new product ideas and customers needs with running one of the industry's top brands.  ISLE believes life is better in balance and that creating balance can be as simple as taking your first paddle strokes or catching your first wave.  Established in San Diego, CA, ISLE is the original surf and SUP company manufacturing products and accessories to keep you balanced, equipped, and inspired for adventures on the water. Since its inception in 2004, the brand has expanded its watersports offerings to include variations of hardtop and inflatable paddleboards, surfboards, hybrid kayaks, paddles, bags, and accessories.

    155. Why Anglers Should Be Concerned About Climate Change with Rick Crawford

    We started our climate month by asking listeners if they were voting for the climate this November.  In what may be the most historic election in my lifetime, we need everyone to use their voice and get out to the polls.  I saw a post on Instagram from Protect Our Winters, and the photos said, "Vote like your home mountain is on fire" – swipe a couple of times, "Vote like your backyard is underwater." Their caption stated that 8 million environmental voters didn't show up in 2020, but if we are not standing up for the planet, who will?  We need everyone to get to the polls this year more than ever. It is crunch time for the climate, so let's vote like it. So, to close out our first climate month, we will bring things home and see how climate change impacts activities that we love. That's why I sat down with Rick Crawford this week to learn how climate change affects our favorite fishing spots and how anglers can advocate for cleaner waters and a more stable climate.  Rick is the President of Emerger Strategies, a sustainable business consultancy whose mission is to measure and improve your company's sustainability performance, all while boosting profits. Emerger Strategies assesses the environmental and social impact of your company's operations, products and packaging; and helps your company make the business case for sustainability.  After graduating with an MBA in Sustainable Business from Marylhurst University in 2011, and spending several years in the renewable energy and green building industries, Rick decided to marry his passion for fly fishing and sustainability by launching Emerger Strategies in 2016, and today Emerger Strategies works with companies of all sizes in a variety of industries. Rick is also the host of the award-winning podcast, The Sustainable Angler, and is also the founder of the Fly Fishing Climate Alliance.  Rick was named one of the "fifteen people, places, and ideas forging the South of tomorrow" by Garden & Gun Magazine, has been featured in the Patagonia film DROP, and named one of "Charleston's 50 Most Influential People" by Charleston Business Magazine. Rick proudly serves on the board of The Sustainability Institute and enjoys spending time with his family on the water.

    154. The Importance of Outdoor Advocacy in the Climate Movement with Bill Barron

    We are halfway through our first climate month on the Outdoor Minimalist podcast, and in episode 154, we explore the intersection of outdoor advocacy and climate action.  To me, loving the outdoors means more than just enjoying nature– it means standing up for it in all aspects of my life.  In a polarizing political climate, it can be difficult to know how to use your voice and if it will be heard at all. But that’s why we’re discussing how outdoor enthusiasts can amplify their voices in policy discussion and why action across all levels of government is necessary for achieving climate solutions.  The outdoor industry can step up its role in climate advocacy. And whether you’re a seasoned activist or just starting out, my guest, Bill Barron, provides actionable steps to engage in the climate movement because, after all, we are all in this to create a better outdoor space as we recreate.  Bill Barron an Alta ski patroller of 24 years, has blended his passion for the outdoors with advocating for meaningful bi-partisan action on climate change- including 5 climate advocacy bike tours. Bill is a three time single-issue federal climate candidate, founded the first Utah Citizens’ Climate Lobby (CCL) Chapter in Salt Lake City 2010, and has been the Mountain West Regional Director for CCL since 2013 covering MT, WY, UT, CO, NM, AZ and NV. Citizens' Climate Lobby- is a nonprofit, nonpartisan, grassroots advocacy climate change organization with 231K volunteers organized into over 375 chapters around the country, focused on national policies to address the national and global climate crisis. Our consistently respectful, nonpartisan approach to climate education is designed to create a broad, sustainable foundation to drive climate action across all geographic regions and political inclinations. By building upon shared values rather than partisan divides, and empowering individuals to work in keeping with the concerns of their local communities, we advocate for the adoption of fair, effective, and sustainable climate change solutions.

    153. How Brands Can Play a More Active Role in the Climate Change Conversation with Ali Wines

    What is the role that brands should play in our climate change conversations?  We see some brands being consistent champions for the planet in their marketing campaigns, even beyond Earth Day, but is it enough? As consumer concern about climate change grows, so does the demand for brands to take an active role—not just in marketing but in genuine engagement with policy development and community dialogue.  Yet, many companies still hesitate to make their voices heard. Why is that? What do consumers genuinely want from brands?  In episode 153 of the Outdoor Minimalist podcast, we explore how brands can have more meaningful conversations, the importance of aligning actions with values, and how to break through the fear that might be holding some brands back. To help us challenge the status quo and uncover how brands can better connect with consumers who care deeply about the future of our planet, I sat down to chat with Ali Wines.  Ali is a communications strategist who helps companies talk about sustainability and climate change. She runs Uncommon Ground Communications, where she works with clients from the ski and outdoor industry to nonprofits and construction companies to tell their sustainability stories with authenticity and courage. Before starting Uncommon Ground, Ali was the Executive Director of Protect Our Winters Canada. She’s a skier, a dog person, and a mum to two daughters who are faster than her on a mountain bike.
