Pilgrim Lost

Kari Gale, the co-founder of Pilgrim Lost, returns to lead the conversation regarding the pilgriming life and all things Camino del Norte.

Tony is halfway on his second pilgrimage to Santiago de Compostela in Spain, this time on the Camino Del Norte. Join us as we catch up with Tony on this remarkable journey and discuss all the amazing things he's seeing and exploring along The Way.

One of our most impactful episodes ever.  Our guest, Dominik Parisien lives with constant pain and convulsive episodes and still he walked the entire Camino Santiago from St. Jean to Finisterre.  Here are just a few of the themes you will experience as you listen: Doing this walk was never about overcoming my physical challenges and my disability, it was about doing it WITH them. Choosing to live beyond the fear Modulating other people's fear Chronic Illness. Constant Pain. Camino Compromise I'm in Pain Every Minute of Every Day An extremely adaptive journey Santiago meant nothing to me And a stunning marriage story Thank you Dominik for getting lost with us.

Chemo Camino Don't judge yourself.  Cancer survivor, Cory Douglas, shares his pilgrimage story that includes overcoming illness, life transitions and painful loss.

This episode features a pilgrim named Victor Maldonado. He shares the miracles and sorrow he has experienced on and around the Camino de Santiago. Cancer took his wife and he walks to bring attention to her story.

"Solvitur ambulando" means "it is solved (saved) by walking. On today's episode, Tony talks with three pilgrims who have gone over 1000 days meeting their 10,000 daily step goal without missing a day.

Long walks, lost baggage, middle-aged sabbaticals and the challenge of mutuality. Tony talks to Dr. Bradley Swope in the days just following his first experience on the Camino de Santiago. Brad's memories are so fresh he can still smell the aromas. Please join the conversation.

Santiago is from Spain. Kaira is from the US. Both are pilgrims. They were pilgrims before they met each other on the Camino... but, just as with life, when your heart is open and your mind is curious, unexpected things can happen. This is their story. Today, they live and work in the Portland, Oregon area. Kaira West helps people fulfill their dreams of a new home: http://www.homesbykaira.com

From two-thirds into his trek along the distance of the Camino Frances, Producer Mark Portrait gives us his "in the moment" thoughts and feelings about being a pilgrim. This is his first time on a pilgrimage of this magnitude and he has much to share.

Today's guest is Bryson Guptill, an ambassador of the Island Walk on Prince Edward Island. Imagine a Camino experience in North America, walking around Prince Edward Island on marked paths, with views of the crashing surf, lighthouses and the land of Anne of Green Gables. Bryson has worked to create this experience for pilgrims like us. Listen and plan to add the Island Walk to your bucket list.

Join Tony and 3 special guests as they explore all the ins and outs of walking the Camino de Santiago from the perspective of peregrinos who are heading over many hills, but not quite over the hill. It's a lively conversation about preparation, trepidation and all out joy from this amazing experience

Meditation-in-motion, as in the case of long-distance trekking, is very much the process of moving in and out of discomfort, fear and resistance. Join the conversation with Dr. Jeremiah Gibbs of the University of Indianapolis who is a long-time journeyer along both the Camino de Santiago and the Appalachian Trail. A veteran of taking more than 100 first-time pilgrims on long treks and all the transformative themes therein. Dr. Gibbs is also an avid trainer of Camino pilgrims online through his practical teachings on packing, prepping and planning.

Dr, Douglas O'Heir, podiatrist and trekking from the French and Spanish Caminos and the Appalachian Trail, shares his expertise and studies on healthy trekking and specifically foot care: shoe selection, body knowledge, preparation exercises and insights into building a first aid kit. In addition to this conversation, he also provides some must-have reports for free for everyone in our community. This was a dialogue that I needed. I hope it is for you as well. Listen and learn.

On today's special episode, Cherokee descendant Dr. Randy Woodley, renowned author and scholar in the realms of culture, justice, theology, indigenous traditions and earth-care, joins Pilgrim Lost to share his encouragements on how we can engage and transform through connecting with the non-human world: plants, creatures and the soil. Our conversation covers numerous topics from walking practices, our non-human neighbors, earth greetings, mystical encounters and he even gives his perspectives on the historically problematic term "pilgrim".

Today's conversation is shared with Jeremy Vallerand, CEO of Rescue Freedom International. At PL we intertwine our pilgrim story with our friends and we discover that the strangers we pass along The Way are in fact characters in our story as well. Jeremy takes the time to show how our story can and does include strangers on the other side of the world: the marginalized, the oppressed and the enslaved. He also shares his passion for climbing/trekking adventures and how he founded an Adventure Philanthropy organization called Climb for Captives. Please join this rich conversation. Also, please follow the podcast and soon our YouTube page, share these conversations with friends, comment on posts and write us with your questions, pilgrim dreams and podcast ideas.

Kari and Tony return to catch up with each other and with all of you after a month of unforgettable life experiences. The discussion focuses on meaning and how the experience of meaning is as much a lifestyle as it is circumstantial. In this episode... HOME is more than a place you live, POST-PANDEMIC is more than a "get out of jail free" card and TRAVEL is more than an opportunity to fill a scrapbook.

Wanderlust: where does it come from? Why do some people have it and others seemingly do not? Is it the product of nature or nurture? Is it seasonal or a lifelong affection? Join the conversation as Kari and Tony explore the human experience of wanderlust, filled with their stories and their desires for a better world.

Kari and Tony ponder how a pilgrim engages reentry. Quarantine is coming to an end, masks are coming off and more and more places are opening up. Reentry can affect us in profound ways. If we are attentive to it, our understanding of ourselves, our space, our time, and our neighbors can increase and even be enriched.

Relationships are a pilgrimage and pilgrims cannot control who they encounter along the way. This week Kari and Tony discuss conversations with those who come from a markedly different political, cultural or spiritual perspective. How do we foster peacemaking? How do we experience wholeness both within ourselves as well as within the space we inhabit with the "other"?
