    Feeling angry in 2025? Join the club. (No, seriously, we have some important things to discuss!) In this episode we sit down with Kallie Klug from KaliSomatics to discuss all things anger: what it really is, what it does in the body, and what the hell to do with it once it's here. So many of us shy away from anger and even couple it with shame. Why? Suppressed anger can express itself as stomach issues, jaw and shoulder pain, and irritating chronic symptoms. In this episode Kallie teaches us how to have conversation with tension in our body, process full body rage and interpersonal rage, and tune into safety in difficult times — necessary skills for improving physical and mental health. With studies showing that the prefrontal cortex shuts down during conflict, knowing how to take space and listen to your body is so important for effective communication and community building. This episode is for anyone who wants to improve their life by learning somatic exercises for anger, with specific tips for travelers and activists. - Email the new travel segment at hellounrulytravel@gmail.com - Episode #71 on people pleasing: https://wanderwoman.online/index.php/2024/08/09/how-to-stop-people-pleasing-somatics-kallie-klug/ - KaliSomatics: https://kalisomatics.com - Unruly Travel & Living Blog: unrulytravel.com - Unruly email newsletter: buff.ly/4a1bPwT

    An anti-diet dietitian sounds like an oxymoron, but when it comes to true health, nutrition, and healing it's exactly what the world needs. Enter: Taylor Wolfram. After becoming disenchanted with standard Western ways of helping clients, Taylor Wolfram set out to create her own weight neutral, anti-diet practice that considers how body politics affect us all, human or beyond. Though we usually connect food with just fullness and hunger, Taylor explains how food impacts our focus, mood stability, brain function, motivation, and nervous system regulation. In this episode we not only discuss the impacts of restricting food, but ways to heal your relationship with it and your body. We dive into the difference of subjectively vs objectively being with your body, unpack why an unnourished brain can't do the deeper healing work, and untangle veganism vs a plant-based, health-focused diet. “If you don't currently feel connected to your body or like you can trust your body, know that you can get there. We are all born embodied, intuitive creatures — we're just conditioned out of it.” - Unruly Italy guides: https://wanderwoman.online/index.php/tag/italy/ - Unruly Tunisia guides: https://wanderwoman.online/index.php/tag/tunisia/ - Taylor Wolfram's website: taylorwolfram.com - Befriending Your Body book: https://prf.hn/l/p3jnyZQ/ - Befriending Your Body card deck: https://prf.hn/l/kVkz132/ - Ginny Kisch Messina: theveganrd.com - veganhealth.org - Unruly Travel & Living Blog: unrulytravel.com - Unruly email newsletter: buff.ly/4a1bPwT

    Is foraging legal? Is it bad for the environment? Is foraging innate or learned? These are the top questions being asked on Google around foraging, a regulating activity that our ancestors depended on to sustain life. Here today to answer our questions and go beyond the technicalities of foraging is Alan Muskat, the founder of the largest foraging education company in the world. In this episode Alan touches on the essence of foraging: feeling safe, feeling provided for, and feeling at home in the world. (And you thought it was just about food!) We also discuss how artificial scarcity pushes us to pay for food rather than collect it for free ourselves, why societal boxes are deadly, and how cities are actually some of the best places to practice foraging.

    Ken Ilgunas, author of 3 books including “Walden On Wheels,” has been called many things: a wanderer, pro-hitchhiker, journalist, and Alaskan back country ranger. Now, he's taken on new titles like “husband” and “dad.” This leads us to ask: What happens to the most adventurous of our society when we enter a phase that calls for settling down, growing roots, and re-entering institutions? It's a life transition that can feel tricky and hard to navigate. Luckily, Ken candidly shares what he's learned while walking down this uncertain road that comes with no playbook. In this episode he takes us into the company of strangers by telling stories made of hitchhike magic, ex-cons, and religious hallucinations while thumbing his way thousands of miles across the US. He then pulls us behind the scenes of the writing process where he transforms these gritty life experiences into something worthy of being page-bound. Listen in as we ponder the sacredness of books; how writers risk damaging relationships in the name of creating good art; and how writing changes the narrative about our own lives. “I think to be a good artist, a small percentage of you has to be a sociopath. You have to be willing to sacrifice something in the name of the art.” Ken's Substack: https://kenilgunas.substack.com/ Second Gear / Podcast Sponsor: https://secondgearwnc.com *Let them know the Unruly Podcast sent you for 10% off! - Unruly Travel & Living Blog: wanderwoman.online

    Is Morocco safe? What about for solo female travelers? How strict is the dress code for women? While the Unruly Podcast usually supplies the sound waves with tales of inspiration and bravery, today we sit down by the crackling wood stove with Calen and their partner Tim to answer all of these questions, and more. In this episode they discuss how to get to Morocco from Spain, dish out all you need to know if you decide to rent a car, and highlight some of their favorite destinations that they hit along the way. Additionally, they get real about what they would have done differently, what they wish they would have known before hand, and what it was like traveling as vegans in Morocco. 
A big take-away is that both Calen and Tim wish they would have listened to the internet less before traveling Morocco because it left them lots of unnecessary anxieties.

Did you know that with just 3 mature cactus leaves you can create one linear meter of plant-based leather? Incredibly, cacti collect water from the air overnight and can be grown in their native space, organically, with no pesticides or herbicides. In addition to sharing epic facts, Jimena breaks down myths about leather production (like, “Isn't it sustainable because it's a byproduct of meat and dairy?”), speaks to what going vegan 14 years ago in Mexico was like, and shares her thoughts on superficiality, style, and sustainability.

We take a walk back in time to learn about what Robbie's childhood was like growing up in Zimbabwe with their beloved rat named Mushroom, discuss the moment that Robbie got fired from their job for practicing individuality, and hear why Plant Based News was such a needed source of information in today's world. Robbie also shares with us their profound experience that they had while using psilocybin, and what that intense and beautiful moment taught them about climate grief. Robbie offers up a remedy and way for dealing with grief that is important of us all: finding, building, and passing on courage whenever possible. “Grief and sorrow are natural parts of life. Whether the beauty and majesty of this world lasts another day or another six centuries, the fact that it has existed at all is a gift.

    If you've watched films, read books, or even experienced riding horses yourself, you may have felt or heard that the feeling of flying through the air on the back of a magnificent animal is one of “true freedom”. But what does “freedom” really mean when the power dynamic in a relationship allows us to exploit someone through captive dependency? Today we sit down with Red Hurst who spent almost 20 years as a professional in the horse industry specializing in hoof car, holistic management, and horse training. She brings us along for her journey of going from riding horses and profiting off of their bodies to advocating for their autonomy. She talks to us about what trauma really is and its relationship to capitalism, why using horses for therapy doesn't make sense, and how to set non-verbal boundaries with horses, dogs, and other animals. But don't be fooled - this epode isn't just about horses. It is a powerful examination of why we feel the need to dominate other animals in the first places, the insidious effects of emotional exploitation, and how, through Ren's inescapable hunger for truth, Sanctuary 13 is holding humans radically accountable for their own healing.

Who we are is power. The only reason that we don't know that is because we've been sucked into a false narrative, and we've bought into it hook line and sinker. We've allowed ourselves to be completely and utterly polluted. As soon as you pull that pollution away, wow, there you are: a powerful creative being who, with the planet, can create miracles.” Atulya's blog: https://www.themudhome.com/earthwhispering Atulya's Earth Whispering Exploration course : https://the-mud-home-courses.teachable.com/p/earth-whispering-exploration Atulya's books: https://www.themudhome.com/books.html Buy the Art of Unruly Travel on a Budget: http://wanderwoman.online/index.php/unrulystore/ "A Building Style From The Past May Be A Solution For The Future" by Calen Otto: http://wanderwoman.online/index.php/2021/09/20/cob-building/ Calen's book recommendations: https://www.instagram.com/p/CW537KFDpce/ Sign up for Unruly email alerts: landing.mailerlite.com/webforms/landing/x2y0l9

    Join us this week as we begin to tear down harmful stigmas about periods, free bleeding, body hair, and sex. In this episode we hear personal stories from listeners... as well as even more personal ones from our Unruly podcast host. Why are words and topics like m@sturbstion, sex, body hair, and menstruation so uncomfortable for our society? Why can't we openly talk about them and express our needs? How does travel force us to examine our beliefs on these issues and inspire us to change?
