Becky Marcelliano understands very well what it means to embrace the outdoors in work and play, challenges and triumphs. About ten years ago, she began her health journey with chronic autoimmune disease, and she has since decided to open up about her own story after hearing other people share theirs. Becky is all about welcoming women of many different backgrounds and abilities to play outside, and she is redefining—or undefining—what it means to be a woman in the outdoors. In this episode, I chat with Becky about her deep-rooted love for the outdoors, what it is like to navigate an autoimmune diagnosis while dwelling on the positive things, the benefits of building each other up, and how women can take their first steps toward experiencing the outdoors for themselves.

Jenn Killian, co-founder and CEO of outdoor women’s collective AndShesDopeToo, talks about growing a community of outdoor women who gather for retreats, campouts, and meet-ups. Her popular Lady Wild Film Fest returns to Ogden, Utah on January 11.

This week we have the honor of introducing you to Taylor Killian! Taylor is the co-founder and creative director of And She’s Dope Too, a world-wide adventure collective of women that he and his wife Jenn started. Their mission is to connect people & planet with perspective & purpose. They’ve done this by completely stripping away the compare-and-compete culture that is so prevalent in our media today. ASDT encourages women from all walks of life and of every ability level to get out with them. They’ve created rendezvous & retreats that allow women to feel 100% comfortable in their own skin while trying new and exciting things.Taylor is also the father to four kids, a photographer & filmmaker and the Creative Director for And She’s Dope Too and Lady Wild Film Festival. We’ll dive into all the details of these endeavors in our conversation. Today’s episode may bring you to tears (as it did me), while Taylor shares how he balances family, business, community, and giving-back. He’s a true example of how to leave the world better than you found it & it’s an honor to have him on today’s show.In This Episode We Discuss:How Taylor (& wife, Jenn) balance adventure while raising 4 childrenWhy Taylor considers AndShesDopeToo to be his Phoenix RisingThe importance of having a true north in life and businessHow to create community that is truly welcoming to allHow to navigate outdoor adventures with your significant otherWhat ASDT is doing to support the mountain bike culture for women in NepalWhy you have to believe in yourself before others will believe in youTweetables:“I seek purpose so much more than happiness. Happiness is, in a lot of ways, fleeting and has so many attachments to it, but purpose is constant. And when you have that purpose and times are rough and nasty and nothing looks attractive, purpose is what gets you through.”“We know we have to stick to our true north and make sure we’re in alignment with what we set out to do in the beginning.““I’m hopeful that what it [long-form conversation] does more than anything is make us realize how similiar we really are. And maybe cut, not only ourselves, but other people a little slack.”“If you believe in what you’re doing, it may not come the way you expect it, it may not have come the way that you want it, but none of those lessons would have been learned through the hard if we wouldn’t have stuck with it.”Resources:www.AndShesDopeToo.comFollow ASDT accounts on Instagram!@AndShesDopeToo@ASDT_adventures@ASDT_media@ASDT_wasatchCheck out Taylor’s personal account @Killian_TaylorWatch their film Moksha - Freedom Through the Mountains on Vimeo!
