Podcasts about all around adventure

As imperfect human beings, failures and setbacks are just an inevitable part of life. It sucks to fail, and we can't reverse the clock and change what has already been done. But we can look back on our failures and learn from them and seek to do better moving forward. In this first solocast for Season 4 of The All-Around Adventure Podcast, I talk about how I failed recently and what I'm doing to come back from my failure.

For this episode of The All-Around Adventure Podcast, I'm joined by world traveler and expatriate, Pelumi Nubi. Pelumi was born in Lagos, Nigeria, and at the age of 10, she moved to London with her family. While growing up, she spent a good amount of time in the library reading books on travel and faraway places. This inspired her to get out and explore the world one day. By the time she made it to university, she sought out ways to travel during her studies. Since then she has been to over 70 countries and currently resides in the city of Dubai. Which is a city that I really enjoyed visiting! Now Pelumi is helping others to get out and see the world with their friends by creating unique travel experiences through her travel agency, Oremi Travels. In this episode, Pelumi tells us about what it was like growing up in the UK and how she ended up settling in Dubai. She also tells us about some of her travel experiences along the way, including both the highlights as well as the misadventures. Furthermore, we also discuss some important topics for you to consider if you plan to go out and travel. Such as how to save money and finance your adventures and how to travel more safely. And in typical All-Around Adventure fashion, Pelumi shares some of the life lessons that she's learned from her travels!

For this episode of The All-Around Adventure Podcast, I'm joined by ultrarunner, backcountry bowhunter, and performance coach, Tyler Geiger. Tyler is the host and founder of the Nock Performance Podcast. A show that helps and encourages listeners to reach their full potential.

Some of which led to feelings of elation, and others disappointment. We also discuss him leaving the law enforcement profession to move on to helping men as a performance coach.

About a week ago, I went hog hunting in West Texas as part of High Caliber Hunts Hunting Camp 004. It was an awesome weekend spent with some high-caliber men who are crushing it in so many facets of life. I definitely took away some great life lessons from this camp. Though unfortunately, I wasn't able to bring home a kill. I missed my quarry the first time I went to the blind. Still, I went back out to try again! In this solocast, I talk about this experience and why you shouldn't let defeats, shortcomings, and setbacks keep you from moving forward. Check out my most recent conversation with Collin Cottrell, and go see what's going on at High Caliber Hunts! Thank you for listening! To hear more great episodes like this one, click here!

For this episode of The All-Around Adventure Podcast, I'm joined by thru-hiker, Brix. Brix is a fellow Michigander who has always found enjoyment out in nature. She got her start as a hiker with some trails in her local area. Though eventually she found herself wanting to go further and she began seeking out longer distance trails in Michigan, as well as other places around the country. Her and I have also traced some of each other's steps along Michigan's section of the North Country Trail.

We all have moments in our lives when darkness looms over us. This can lead to us feeling sad, angry, frustrated, wrathful, or some other negative emotion.

For this episode of The All-Around Adventure Podcast, I'm joined by Emily Wapshott; a Commercial Archaeologist at Southwest Archaeology and Co-Founder of Archaeologists Engage in the UK. Emily's tenure as an archaeologist started at a young age. Beginning with digging for, and finding, things in her own backyard. She also had the opportunity to do volunteer fieldwork alongside archaeologists from University College London when she was just eight years old. It was then that she knew that she wanted to eventually pursue a career in archaeology. This would lead her to the University of Exeter. Where she earned a double honors undergraduate degree in History and Archaeology, as well as a postgraduate degree in Experimental Archaeology. Throughout her career, Emily has conducted fieldwork in some amazing places abroad in countries like Greece and the US. Though now as a Commercial Archaeologist, much of her work is done primarily throughout Cornwall, Devon, and Somerset in the UK. In this episode, Emily tells us about her career as an archaeologist. Beginning with some of her earliest finds that she has kept up until this day. Emily also tells us about some of her current projects, as well as projects that she has coming up. One of them is Dig The Castle, a community dig scheduled for September and October. During this project, she will be leading a group of primary students to excavate the site of a Norman motte and bailey castle in Great Torrington in Devon. We also address some common questions that archaeologists are typically asked. Such as if real archaeology is the same as it's depicted in pop culture and other forms of media!

I recently wrapped up a tough archaeological fieldwork project in Louisiana. This state is one of the most challenging places that I've worked in throughout my career. Much of the environment there can be described in one word... briers, and lots of them too! They get in the way of the results that I want to achieve in the field. Therefore, I have two options; find a way around them or make a way through them. In this solocast, I talk about these choices and how they can be applied to other areas of life.

It's been said that you're the average of the five people that you spend the most time with. The older I get, the more I find this to be the case. Therefore, I've made it a point to be deliberate and intentional with surrounding myself with high-caliber individuals. Because that is the type of person that I want to be. In this solocast, I talk about this idea and go over how you can align yourself with high-caliber individuals. Thank you for listening! To hear more great episodes like this one, click here!

For this episode of The All-Around Adventure Podcast, I'm joined by Collin Cottrell, owner and founder of High Caliber Hunts. Back in January of 2021, Collin was in a physical state that he was not happy with. He weighed almost 300 pounds and wasn't living to his full potential. He decided to make a change and embarked on a journey of health and wellness. Within two years time, he lost 100 pounds and began training to become an ultra-endurance runner. And just a little over a month ago, Collin successfully ran 100 miles in the Rocky Racoon 100 Trail Race at Huntsville State Park in Texas. Also, just before the release of this episode, he ran 100 kilometers in the Crazy Desert Trail Race at Texas' San Angelo State Park. Now he has his sights set on longer races in the future. I sat down with Collin just a few days after he completed the Rocky Racoon 100 to hear his story. Preparing for an endeavor like this definitely wasn't easy for him. Not only did he have to put in many grueling hours and miles during training. But he also had to make sure that he was putting in the work for his businesses. As well as being present as a husband and a father. In this episode, Collin tells us about how he prepared for the Rocky Raccoon 100 and how he made sure that he still showed up effectively in other areas of his life. He also tells us about what it was like during the race and the mindset that he had while going through it. Furthermore, he and I discuss the importance of utilizing focus, intentionality, and efficiency in order to accomplish amazing things in life.

I set a goal for myself at the beginning of this year. And that is to complete a Spartan Ultra obstacle course race! This race will consist of over 30 miles of running with about 60 obstacles to overcome along the way. I've done obstacle course races in the past, but never at this level before. In this solocast, I talk about why I decided to take on this challenge and how I'm preparing for it. Also, check out OCR Underground for OCR training programs! Thank you for listening!

For this episode of The All-Around Adventure Podcast, I'm joined by my cousin, Chris Kreiner. Chris, like me, grew up in rural Michigan and from an early age has spent a lot of time in the outdoors. Some of his earliest and fondest memories were spending time in the tree stand with his father and fishing for bluegills in nearby ponds. Since then he's made his way to many places around the country to go hunting. Including coyote hunting over in Nebraska and hog hunting down in Texas, among others. Along with that, he also writes articles and conducts filming for various publications, such as Tactical Life magazine. In this episode, Chris tells us about his journey as a hunter and an outdoorsman. Beginning with his time growing up in rural Michigan and how the outdoors influenced his development. We also discuss hunting controversies and our thoughts on them. Furthermore, we go over the personal benefits that one can gain from spending more time in the outdoors and spending less time on social media and other forms of technology that are constantly trying to hold on to our attention.

I like to think of myself as a versatile traveler and adventurer. I can spend days, or longer, out in the wild. And I can also be very diligent in the urban jungle. But if I had to pick between the two... I'd go with nature! Nature can certainly be beautiful, but it definitely has a savage side. A side that I've seen many times! In this solocast, I talk about why you should get out into nature, but not take it lightly. Thank you for listening! To hear more great episodes like this one, click here!

For this episode of The All-Around Adventure Podcast, I'm joined by my friend and fellow US Marine, Brie Burgett. Brie is the creator and author of the travel blog, The Brie Adventure, and she is one of the most versatile travelers and adventurers that I know! She's lived on three separate continents as an expatriate and has traveled to over 100 countries. Along with that, she is also a certified skydiver and SCUBA diver, and now she has her sights set on achieving amazing feats as a mountaineer. She's currently working towards her goal to reach the top of all Seven Summits. And as of the release of this episode, she's checked three off the list; Mount Kilimanjaro in Africa, Mount Elbrus in Russia, and just before the recording of this episode, Aconcagua in Argentina! In this episode, Brie tells us about the places that she's lived and traveled to along the way. We also discuss a vast array of different travel and adventure topics. Including travel safety, country recommendations for new travelers, and some of our shared experiences in certain places and during certain activities. Such as the amazing Christmas markets in Germany and having to wake up in a tent and sleeping bag with the snow and cold winds blowing outside! Furthermore, she tells us about her time preparing for her summit bid of Aconcagua and what it was like for her on the mountain. As well as where she plans to head to next on her quest to reach all Seven Summits! To watch the video of our conversation, head over to the All-Around Adventure YouTube channel!

A little over a year ago, I hiked nearly 1,200 miles across the entire state of Michigan. At first, I was very nervous to take on this endeavor. Even though I've always enjoyed hiking, I've never taken it to this level before. But I went out there and did it! In this solocast, I talk about how I became a hiker, and how you can too. Though what I have to say may not be what you're expecting! Thank you for listening! To hear more great episodes like this one, click here!

For this episode of The All-Around Adventure Podcast, I'm joined by #1 New York Times Bestselling Author, Kyle Mills. Kyle is the current author of the Mitch Rapp book series. And Mitch Rapp just so happens to be one of my most beloved fictional characters! The series was started by Vince Flynn back in the late 90s. Though sadly, Vince Flynn passed away in 2013 after writing 13 books in the series. Not long after, Kyle took up the mantle and continued writing more novels centered around the iconic character. And as of the release of this episode, Kyle's eighth book in the series, Oath of Loyalty, has been released! Though Kyle's own story goes well beyond just writing thrillers. While growing up, his father worked for the FBI, and he moved to different places in the US and the UK as a bureau kid. Along the way, he also took up rock climbing, which was an interest that led him to his current home in Wyoming. Now as a writer, he and his wife have become part-time expatriates living in both the US and Spain. In this episode, Kyle tells us about the places that he's lived along the way. We also discuss his journey as an author and what it's been like to continue writing a book series that has a very loyal fan base. As well as where he thinks he'll take the series moving forward!

It should go without saying that travel days can be quite stressful! I've certainly experienced this many times over. Especially now that I'm flying out of an airport at least once a week for my career as an archaeologist. Though along the way, I've found certain ways to help make my travel days go a bit smoother. In this solocast, I go over 7 tips that you can use to help make your travel days better! Thank you for listening! To hear more great episodes like this one, click here!

For this episode of The All-Around Adventure Podcast, I'm joined by thru-hiker, Aaron "Soda" Landon. About a week prior to the recording of this podcast episode, Aaron had just completed hiking all 4,800 miles of the North Country National Scenic Trail (NCT). It was an ordeal that took many months to complete. Though Aaron's tenure as a thru-hiker began well before the NCT. His first long-distance trail experience was the Florida Trail. Which is another national scenic trail that extends from Big Cypress National Preserve in South Florida, up to Gulf Islands National Seashore near Pensacola. That hike involved a lot of walking through waist-high water with many dangers lurking nearby! And it was a challenging way to kick off Aaron's hiking journey. However, the NCT was an entirely different animal that offered many incredible experiences, along with its own unique set of challenges! In this episode, Aaron tells us more of his hiking stories. Beginning with his time on the Florida Trail, and leading up to his time on the NCT. He and I also talk about some of our shared experiences during each of our own hikes of the NCT's Michigan section. One of them being the wonderful Trail Angels, Trail Chapter members, and other amazing people that we met on the trail. For it was the people that we met along the way that made our time on the NCT more than just being about getting miles hiked!

Now that we're into 2023, many of you have probably been thinking about what you want to do and accomplish this year. It can all seem very exciting as the clock hits midnight on New Year's Eve.

For this episode of The All-Around Adventure Podcast, I'm joined by world traveler and forensic archaeologist, Julie Evo. Julie is an archaeologist that I respect and admire. And I've been fortunate to have worked alongside her on a couple of field projects in the past. Throughout her career, Julie has had the opportunity to conduct fieldwork all around the world! Though some of the locations that she's worked at have been quite challenging. Such as in central Illinois, where she had to walk through miles of dense ten-foot-tall fields of corn. Or western Louisiana, where she's had to inch her way through a ton of trees and thorn vines. And if that wasn't enough, Julie also enjoys traveling to extreme locations during her vacations. Her most recent was a trip to Norway to go trekking in the Arctic Circle! In this episode, Julie tells us about how she became an archaeologist, as well as some of the places that she's traveled to for fieldwork. She also shares some of her stories from her time in Norway and what she's learned from that experience. Furthermore, we also have a fun discussion on archaeology in pop culture and how it might influence the profession!

The year 2022 has come and gone! This has been a year of great adventures and personal development for me. I've been thrown in the fire a few times during my career as an archaeologist.

For this episode of The All-Around Adventure Podcast, I'm joined by Paige Du Bois, General Manager and Event Coordinator for Queen City Running Company in Marquette, Michigan. I first met Paige a little over a year ago while I was in the midst of Operation: Wolverine Walk. My 1,200-mile thru-hike across the entire state of Michigan. I faced footwear issues along the North Country Trail that led me to stop at her store. And she was there to provide me with the smoothest footwear-buying experience that I've ever had! She and I had stayed in touch since then. I would learn that she has traveled to many different cities to compete in, as well as pace for, various marathons. Or as I like to tell her... racin' and pacin'! She's also completed an ultra-marathon in some of the pristine wilderness of Michigan's Upper Peninsula. And soon she'll be running alongside the best long-distance runners in the world when she heads to the Boston Marathon! In this episode, Paige tells us about how she became a runner, as well as how running has benefited both her physical and mental health. She also shares some of her stories from her travels to race and pace. Furthermore, we discuss the importance of setting goals and focusing on them as you put in the work to achieve them!

About a year ago, I completed Operation: Wolverine Walk. Which was a 1,200-mile thru-hike across the entire state of Michigan to raise money for American Veterans Archaeological Recovery (AVAR). A non-profit that is on a mission to promote the well-being of US Veterans through field archaeology. By the end of the trek, I raised over $10,000 for them, as well as learned some valuable life lessons. In this episode of The All-Around Adventure Podcast, I reflect on the endeavor and discuss three key takeaways from it. Thank you for listening! To hear more great episodes like this one, click here!

For this episode of The All-Around Adventure Podcast, I'm joined by travel blogger and fiction novelist, Chris Oldfield. This will be Chris's third appearance on The All-Around Adventure Podcast! In his previous episodes, we got to hear about some of his early travel memories and his insights on sustainable travel. Though I decided to bring him back on the show because he just wrapped up a really cool project that I wanted to hear about and share with you all. And that he just released his first fiction novel! It's titled The Less Year, and it's a novel in the post-apocalyptic genre! As of the release of this episode, the book is now available on Amazon! In this episode, Chris tells us about what inspired him to become a writer, how he finds time to write while traveling, and his interest in the post-apocalyptic genre. Along with this, we take a deep dive into various aspects of humanity as we talk about his novel and other books in the genre. We also discuss pursuing creative outlets in life and utilizing strategy and discipline to follow through on what you set out to do.

In this day and age, so many of us are afraid to take risks that could potentially lead to something great. Even though, unlike hundreds of years ago, many risks that we face in this modern-day usually don't involve something catastrophic like death. Yet we still avoid taking them. In this episode of The All-Around Adventure Podcast, I get into this topic a bit and talk about a few risks that I took recently in both my personal and professional life. Thank you for listening!

For this episode of The All-Around Adventure Podcast, I'm joined by Marine Corps Veteran, podcast host, and standup comedian, Chris Palmitessa. This is Chris's second appearance on The All-Around Adventure Podcast. He joined me a couple of years ago and we had a great discussion on how to cultivate your warrior soul. Though much has changed since he last came on the show. Back in 2020, he moved over 3,000 miles across the country from Los Angeles, California to South Florida. He also began pursuing standup comedy. And has appeared in, as well as hosted, several shows in the Miami metro area. I've had the opportunity to see him, along with other Veteran comedians, perform in Miami a few months back and they were really funny! Along with doing standup comedy, Chris is also the host of the Warrior Soul Podcast. A show committed to helping the US Veteran community, and anyone else willing to listen, to live their best lives. In this episode, Chris tells us about his decision to move across the country and how he's adapted to the change. He also talks about his transition to comedy and some of the dark humor that is utilized by much of the Veteran community. And we also have a discussion on taking risks in life and how to express yourself creatively.

For this episode of The All-Around Adventure Podcast, I'm joined by Naval officer, Anthony Waite. Along with being a career Navy man. Anthony is also a speaker, trainer, and coach who specializes in high-performance leadership and development. To many people, Anthony has been viewed as a man who has it all figured out and was groomed for success his whole life. However, this couldn't be further from the truth. Anthony grew up in poverty, he didn't excel in school, he was in and out of different homes, and he was told by many Naval leaders that he'd never amount to anything. Though instead of listening to the naysayers and dwelling on his upbringing. Anthony sought out solid leaders and mentors and took whatever opportunity that he could to better himself and further his career in the Navy. Anthony now serves as an officer and seeks to take what he's learned to coach and lead others. All while going by his philosophy: “A position doesn't make the leader, it merely reveals their discipline to cultivate the character necessary to lead by example.” In this episode, Anthony tells us more of his story. Starting with the trouble that he faced in his youth, making the transition to the military, where he's deployed to, and becoming an officer and a leader. We also discuss leadership strategies and tactics that can be implemented in any area of life and how to lead from the front!

For this episode of The All-Around Adventure Podcast, I'm joined by my brother and returned guest, Zach Guerrero. Zach has had several amazing adventures throughout his life! He lived and worked in Michigan's Upper Peninsula, where he got to explore some amazing places. Such as Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore and Isle Royale National Park. He also had the opportunity to spend four months studying abroad in Costa Rica. While also traveling to a few other Central American countries. Furthermore, Zach has made it across the oceans for even more daring endeavors! Including riding into the Sahara Desert on the back of a camel, hopping between islands in the Philippines, and much more! Though things have changed for Zach during these past few years! Back in the summer of 2020, he became a husband. Not long after that, he and his wife bought their first home. And most recently, at the start of this year, the two welcomed their daughter into the world! Despite these changes, Zach still finds ways to heed the call for adventure. Albeit, in a different way than what he has done before. And he hopes to share his adventurous spirit with his daughter as she gets older. In this episode, Zach tells us about how he's adapted his travel style to the changes in his life. He also shares tips and ideas for other parents on how to travel with children, and his thoughts on the future and traveling with his daughter! Thank you for listening!

As of the release of this podcast episode, I've been working as a professional archaeologist for about five years. And throughout my career, I've had the opportunity to conduct fieldwork at a variety of different locations. Both overseas as well as here in the US. Some of these locations I enjoyed working at, though others not so much. And there are a few that I would consider to be my favorite. In this third episode of my solocast series, Archaeolife. I talk about my favorite places that I've worked at so far, and what made them my favorite. Thank you for listening! To hear more great episodes like this one, click here!

For this episode of The All-Around Adventure Podcast, I'm joined by Buck Hough, owner and builder of Bin-Walkin. During my thru-hike across Michigan for Operation: Wolverine Walk. I had many people graciously offer me aid along the way. I had people give me rides, welcome me into their homes, cook me meals, bring me supplies, and much more. These people we're Trail Angels of the North Country Trail. And Buck was one of those Trail Angels that I met when I made it further south in Michigan's lower peninsula. Before I arrived, he had told me that he had just finished building a shelter on his property out of an old grain bin that he had salvaged. And that I would get to stay in it! This shelter became known as Bin-Walkin. As a hiker himself, Buck understands how nice a warm and comfy dwelling can be after hiking many miles on Michigan's trails. And he sought a way to create such a safe haven for his fellow hikers. This led him to build Bin-Walkin, a shelter with electricity, a wood stove, a sink, a legitimate outhouse, and much more! Now he and his wife Jenny have hosted many hikers that have made their way through along the North Country Trail. And each hiker leaves behind their stories and other memorabilia to help and inspire more hikers that come through. In this episode, Buck tells us some of his own hiking stories and shares what it's been like to build Bin-Walkin and host his fellow hikers.

Oftentimes, when I tell someone that I'm an archaeologist. The questions that I usually get asked have nothing to do with my job! And sometimes I'll have people sending me articles that they think pertain to my work. But, once again, has nothing to do with my role as an archaeologist. So for this second episode of my solocast series, Archaeolife. I thought that I'd share some general things about archaeology, by going over what it is NOT! Thank you for listening!

For this episode of The All-Around Adventure Podcast, I'm joined by Collin Cottrell, owner and founder of High Caliber Hunts. High Caliber Hunts is a brand that seeks to connect like-minded individuals and build camaraderie through hunting. I recently had the chance to participate on a hog hunt near Dallas, Texas that Collin led. During which I made my first successful wild game kill and had the chance to get to know some incredible men. Hunting is something that Collin has been doing his entire life. While growing up in rural Minnesota, he spent much time outdoors learning the craft and leveling up his life. Now he has his sights set on providing those same opportunities to others. Though there were times in his life when he wasn't living up to his full-potential. And he knew that he had to make changes and put in the work for the sake of his health and his relationships. Now he's on a path of fitness and self-development and coaches others who are on that path as well. In this episode, Collin tells us about his journey as a hunter and how he came to development High Caliber Hunts. He also opens up about the lower points in his life, and how he took action to make the changes that he needed to better himself. He and I also discuss how others can seek change and level up in their own lives! To watch the video of our conversation, head over to the All-Around Adventure YouTube channel!

During a recent poll that I put in my Instagram stories. I asked my followers to choose from a list of topics that they'd like for me to talk about in a solocast about my career as an archaeologist. Now the responses were pretty evenly split. Therefore, I've decided to address each of them in a series of solocasts that I've called Archaeolife! For this first episode of the series, I'll be talking about one of the most voted-for topics in the poll. And that is the toughest fieldwork projects that I've worked on so far!

For this episode of The All-Around Adventure Podcast, I'm joined by Rue McKenrick; originator and Executive Director of the American Perimeter Trail. Rue has walked many miles through America's trail systems! He grew up in western Pennsylvania, with the Appalachian Trail running through his backyard. Back in 2003, he walked the entire length Appalachian Trail to complete his first thru-hike. Afterward, he sought out conservation and educational work through several non-profit organizations. Such as the Appalachian Trail Conservancy, Outward Bound, the Appalachian Mountain Club, and Ameri-Corp. Over the next several years he would go on to backpack the Triple Crown. Having already completed the Appalachian Trail, the two remaining trails were the Pacific Crest Trail and the Continental Divide Trail. Not long after completing the Triple Crown, Rue came up with the idea of the American Perimeter Trail and its respective conference. Rue started his scouting trek for the trail in Bend, Oregon back in 2019. And has now completed the 12,000 mile loop around the country! In this episode, Rue shares his experiences from his time doing the Triple Crown and while scouting the American Perimeter Trail. He talks about some of the highlights and challenges that he faced while doing long-distance hikes like these. As well as what's in store for the American Perimeter Trail moving forward!

During a recent archaeology fieldwork project, I was tasked with being a team leader. During this time, I was reminded that being a leader isn't all that it's cracked up to be. And that it can be lonely at the top. Regardless, as a leader, I knew that I had to do the best that I could to better myself, look after my team, and accomplish the mission. In this solocast, I talk about my recent experiences as an archaeology team leader, why leadership is a lonely place to be, and how to improve as a leader.

Memento Mori. Latin for... "remember you must die." Death is something that many of us would rather not think about. But there reality is that death eventually comes for all of us. And nothing can be done to change that. Recently, I had a moment while traveling that reminded me of this fact. In this episode of The All-Around Adventure Podcast, I talk about that moment and what I decided to do in the midst of it. Thank you for listening!

For this episode of The All-Around Adventure Podcast, I'm joined by Nick Palacios; archer, bowhunter, and Co-founder of DNA Archery. When I started taking up hunting, Nick was one of the first people that I connected with in that community. He's a first generation bowhunter who found a passion for archery later on in his life. Now he's made his way out into the wild on numerous occasions to hunt down different, and sometimes dangerous, game with his bow. He's also one of the three men who've founded DNA Archery. A brand that seeks to inform and inspire new and up-and-coming archers and bowhunters. Along with archery and bowhunting, Nick also has a passion for fitness and self-development. This led him to take on, and complete, the mental toughness challenge known as 75 Hard. In this episode, Nick tells us about his journey as an archer and a bowhunter. We talk about some of the tough game that he has hunted. What it was like doing 75 Hard and the results that he obtained. As well as how archery fundamentals can be applied to so many other areas of life. To watch the video of our conversation, head over to the All-Around Adventure YouTube channel!

Last year I took a hiatus from podcasting because I set out on a grand adventure! I decided to do a thru-hike across my home state of Michigan! Which was a total distance of about 1,200 miles, and it took me over three months to complete. There were many moments on the trail where I felt overwhelmed. When the thought of how much further that I had to go crushed my spirit. So I had to remind myself that I wasn't going to finish it in a day. And that I shouldn't focus on later parts of the trail, but rather the part that I was currently on and just take it one step at a time. I've also had to tell this to myself again on a recent archaeological project. Where there was so much work that was coming up. But I dialed things in to deal with the immediate tasks at hand and left tomorrow's problems to tomorrow's me. In this episode, I break this idea down and talk about how you can implement it into other areas of your life! Thank you for listening! To hear more great episodes like this one, click here!

For this episode of The All-Around Adventure Podcast, I'm joined by Magpie & Constantine, thru-hikers and the owners of Eleven Skys. I first met these two while I was in the midst of my thru-hike across Michigan for Operation: Wolverine Walk. We had crossed paths deep in the woods in the Upper Peninsula. They told me that they were attempting to hike the entire length of the North Country Trail. A total distance of about 4,800 miles! But what I didn't know, was that they were attempting to complete it in record time. A feat that they ultimately achieved! And even now after their 4,800 mile journey on the North Country Trail. They're still finding other amazing trails around the US to hike and explore. In this episode, Magpie and Constantine tell us more about their journey as hikers. They tell about their early hiking memories, including how they met on the trail. We also share some of the highlights and challenges that we've experienced while on the North Country Trail. As well as some of the takeaways and life lessons that our time on the trail has taught us! To watch the video of our conversation, head over to the All-Around Adventure YouTube channel!

Recently I traveled to Kentucky for an archaeological fieldwork project. This project took place at Cumberland Gap National Park and involved trekking deep in the wilderness. Steep slopes, dense vegetation, trip hazards, and freezing temperatures were constant companions. Some days were challenging, and there were moments when I doubted myself out there. However, I told myself a certain phrase in my head to help me change my mindset. And that was, "This is the type of shit that legends are made of!" I've also adopted a similar mindset when I sought out other intense challenges in my life. Such as Marine Corps boot camp, an MMA fight, a Spartan Race, among others.
