Today we are going outside for the episode. She Explores is a podcast made by Ravel media and hosted by Gale Straub. She is exploring the world of outdoor sports, nature and wildlife through the eyes of women. This by doing heartwarming and inspiring interviews that show that the outdoors are for more than straight middle age men with beards. The episode we are going to listen to she will be interviewing Elyse Rylander who is the founder of "Out There Adventures" and the LGBTQ Outdoor Summit. She puts her effort into inspiring people of the LGBTQI+-community to experience the nature and the joys of outdoor adventures. World Pride Pod Stage will be a place where you can listen to all time favorites and discover new shows that you never heard of.  It will be a new podcast every day but the joint theme is that all episodes will have a queer theme, regardless if the show is queer or not in general.

In romantic comedies, the story always begins with a 'meet cute' — a charming first encounter that leads to a wonderfully cheesy romance. But do those really happen in our outdoor community? And after that initial meeting, what’s the reality of building off that first connection? In episode two of our Love Traverse mini series, Real Life Rom Com, climbers Annalissa Purdum and Kris Hampton revisit the beginning of their relationship.

Because love is not a movie — real life is much more romantic.  Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Just a few days before the 2019 Outdoor Retailer Snow Show in Denver I got my reporting assignments. Among the various topics I was tasked to report on was a human interest profile on a young man attending OR for the first time. Wyn Wiley is a professional photographer from Lincoln, Nebraska. He's also known as the drag queen Pattie Gonia. Photo courtesy Wyn Wiley I'll be honest I've  never interviewed a drag queen before and I have to say that I was a little nervous. I was more than a bit concerned about mixing up my male/female pronouns and appearing insensitive or even impolite. My goal in this interview was to create a safe space where Wiley could tell me all about his alter ego and share her story. Photo courtesy Wyn Wiley Coming on the scene only  a few months ago Pattie Gonia is an Internet sensation, with more than 117,000 followers on Instagram. In an industry that has more than its fair share of toxic masculinity this leggy dame in platform heels and trekking poles may just be the joyful expression of wilderness the business of outdoor retail  desperately needs. Photo courtesy Wyn Wiley In an interview last year Elyse Rylander, founder and executive director of Out There Adventures, an LGBTQ youth engagement organization, said something I will always remember. "There is nothing straight in nature." The outdoors is place where everyone is free to be themselves. Diversity is a sign of strength any natural environment. So get out there and find the best expression of who you really are. Look for Wiley's photographs and videos at instagram.com/pattiegonia.

The Joy Trip Project is made possible thanks to the partnership of Specialty News also known as SNEWS, the outdoor industry online trade magazine. You'll find my text profile with pictures of Wyn Wiley as Pattie Gonia at SNEWSNET.com. Thanks for listening!

The outdoors has a diversity problem, not with the landscapes or the weather, but with the people who participate.  Today's guest is changing that by getting people out, outside. Elyse Rylander is the executive director of OUT There Adventures, an organization that takes queer young people on outdoors adventures to help them develop positive identities and individual empowerment. In this episode, we chat about how the outdoors can serve as a safe space for queer youth and why it's important for everyone to care about the movement.
