    EP.038 - Deciphering First Aid in Bushcraft with Joe Price

    Apologies for the delay in getting this episode out! This file got corrupted on the Adobe servers and was kindly recovered by the technical team (Huge thanks to Harmony & Alex!) & to keep continuity between episodes I delayed the release of anything else until it was ready. In this episode, Liam sits down with Joe Price from In Forest and Lands to dig into the practical side of first aid in a bushcraft and outdoor context in a grounded discussion aimed at helping people build a sensible first aid mindset for the outdoors. Be prepared, but not paranoid. Be capable, but not overwhelmed. Rather than focusing on worst-case scenarios or highly advanced trauma interventions straight away, the conversation centres on building confidence and competence in the basics so that you can actually enjoy time outside without being paralysed by what ifs. We break down how a lot of people get caught up worrying about specialist gear like tourniquets, chest seals, or major trauma kits, when in reality most outdoor incidents start much smaller: cuts, burns, sprains, blisters, dehydration, or minor infections. The emphasis of this conversation is on understanding proportional response knowing what is likely to happen in the woods versus what is possible but rare, and preparing accordingly without overloading your kit or your mind. We also connect this mindset directly to bushcraft skills. For example, while you're practicing something like firelighting, shelter building, or knife work, the real safety gains come from good habits: controlled cutting techniques, situational awareness, proper tool handling, and staying calm when things don’t go perfectly. First aid, in this framing, isn’t a separate “emergency mode” skillset it’s part of how you move and work in the outdoors. Please Find the First Aid Kit Document⁠ here⁠!
