My guest is Summer Michaud-Skog author and founder of Fat Girls Hiking. Summer talks about how she fell in love with hiking and how she inadvertently started a community just by sharing about the thing she loves to do. Summer is a wonderful photographer and writer and I've followed her Instagram account for some time now. She's written a beautiful book also called Fat Girls Hiking-which I have been thoroughly enjoying. Summer shares about some of the barriers that plus-size people face in accessing the outdoors and some things that we can do to make it a more welcoming experience.

Oftentimes, stereotypes portray outdoor adventurers to look a certain way or have a specific background. But access to the outdoors is meant for everyone to enjoy, even if you didn't grow up exploring all corners of the forest. Even if summiting mountains at record speeds isn't your thing. For so many, just getting outside and having a good time is a huge accomplishment. On this week's episode of Peak Northwest, we talk with Summer Michaud-Skog, founder of Fat Girls Hiking movement and author of “Fat Girls Hiking: An Inclusive Guide to Getting Outdoors at Any Size or Ability.” Here are some highlights from this week's show: Summer discusses how Fat Girls Hiking got started. We ask Summer about some of her favorite hikes. Summer tells us about her book and what she hopes people get from it. How you can join in on a Fat Girls Hiking trip. Learn more about your ad choices.

That there is such beauty in deciding that you want to do something and going after it. And you are allowed to do that, you are allowed to try, and you are allowed to fail while you do it as well. You don't always have to succeed and that's ok. You're allowed to fail and to try again, and try again. And it doesn't mean that you, aren't good enough and you are not worthy, it just means you are a beginner and it's ok to be a beginner, so you are allowed to fail.” Social Media Find Sam on Instagram @SamOrtizPhoto At Climb Big, we're interested in making rock climbing and the outdoors more accessible to fat folx. The barriers for plus size adventurers are huge, including a lack of representation and access, not to mention an incredibly limited selection of the gear and clothing that are necessary for safety in the outdoors.

Beth Bradley can confidently say that hiking changed her life. Call it her hobby, her love, her self-care. Doing the 52 Hike Challenge has changed the voice in her head from one that says "I'm too fat" to one that believes, without a doubt, that we need to change who we think of when we think of a hiker. We interviewed Beth live at No Man's Land Film Festival on March 8th PLUS Gale checked in with Beth this past Monday over the phone because a lot has changed in the world since they met up in Denver.Featured in this episode: Beth BradleyHosted by Gale StraubA production of Ravel MediaSponsored by Deuter, Appalachian Gear Company, and South Dakota TourismJoin the She Explores Podcast community on FacebookVisit She-Explores.com & Follow Us on InstagramResourcesBeth Bradley: InstagramBeth's First Moth Grandslam StoryNo Man's Land Film Festival: Website & Instagram52 Hike ChallengeUnlikely HIkers: InstagramFat Girls Hiking: InstagramDown With Adventure: Instagram & FilmCurvy Kili Crew: Instagram & She Explores EpisodeA Moment of Growth: She Explores Podcast EpisodeJenny Bruso on She ExploresLeave No Trace Guidelines: Outdoors & COVID-19She Explores Landing PageRavel MediaSponsors and Discount CodesDeuter: Learn more about Deuter's outdoor and travel bags at Deuter.com.Appalachian Gear Company: Learn more about the All-Paca Fleece Hoodie.South Dakota Tourism - Get your FREE South Dakota vacation guide at travelsouthdakota.comEpisodes air weekly on Wednesdays-- subscribe wherever you listen so you never miss an episode.Music is by Kai Engel, Josh Woodward, and Lee Rosevere using a Creative Commons Attribution License

Sam Ortiz has gone from a beginner to a hiker to a climber to a mountaineer to a plus-size outdoor model in under five years. Her progression has happened in part due to curiosity, timely mentors, and the best kind of fear: the kind you move up and over and end up a little bit changed on the other side. Woman featured in this episode: Sam Ortiz Hosted by Gale Straub Sponsored by Merrell Continue the conversation and join us in our She Explores Podcast Facebook Group! In this episode, you'll hear: How Sam didn't necessarily feel like the outdoors and climbing were for her growing up, but how she found herself drawn to them anyway How an outdoor mentor helped Sam navigate new activities when she worked for Americorps in Alaska Why climbing Mount Juneau in Alaska taught her she could "do hard things" and opened the door to learning new outdoor activities like climbing and mountaineering How fear has been a positive (for the most part) driver in Sam's life That Sam lacked role models growing up as a plus-size, Latinx woman and why she's determined to change that for others How finding her voice as a climber and mountaineer has created many unexpected opportunities, including being an outdoor model for brands like REI and Eddie Bauer Why being closer to outdoor brands has made her want to speak out for more and better plus size apparel and equipment What it's like being an INFJ when you're connecting with so many people Why Sam loves seeing other plus size women on the trail Who have been Sam's role models in her advocacy work Resources Sam Ortiz: Instagram & Portfolio Jenny Bruso & Unlikely Hikers - Her episode is called 'Fat & Outdoorsy' Mirna Valerio - Her episode is called: "How to be a Role Model" Fat Girls Hiking: Instagram and Website PNW Outdoor Women Sponsor Websites and Codes Merrell: Learn more by visiting to Merrell.com!

Welcome to the fifth episode of Matter of Fat: a body positive podcast with Midwest sensibilities! Co-hosts Cat Polivoda and Saraya Boghani highlight community voices with a lens on body size, body positivity, & fat liberation. This episode, Cat and Saraya update each other on what's happening in the Twin Cities and their lives during The Fat Dish, talk with their guest Andy Kuhlmann about their story as a matter of fat, and dive into the Dirt and Discourse. This episode was originally released on October 17th 2018. In the Fat Dish, Cat chats upcoming Pollen Midwest events, her shop Cake Plus-Size Resale’s birthday, seeing Nicole Byer, and being part of a panel for Matriarch Digital Media during Twin Cities Startup Week. Saraya tells us about her recent trip to Colorado, seeing Rupi Kaur perform, and being on a panel about Body Positivity & Fat Liberation. Upcoming local events include: The Big Fat Super Swap on October 20th from 1-3PM at the Nokomis Community Center in South Minneapolis. Also on Saturday, October 20th, the local chapter of Fat Girls Hiking is hosting a hike at Elm Creek Park Reserve. This episode’s interview is with Andy Kuhlman. Andy recounts the beginnings of their personal fat activism and co-founding the Big Fat Super Swap, shares a bit about their comedic background, expresses the woes of finding clothing to fit their body and sense of style as a non-binary, superfat person, and shares their love of Sumo on Japanese Public Television and The Adventure Zone podcast. In Dirt + Discourse, Cat and Saraya discuss Weight Watcher’s recent rebrand to WW ( or, “Wellness” that “Works” - quotes ours, not theirs). Saraya’s got questions about what identity they’re trying to sell with this rebrand and why. She encourages us to “follow the money”! Cat questions their true commitment to wellness and challenges us to recognize that if diets worked for most people WW wouldn’t be in business. (It’s truly one heck of a business model.)

Summer did not grow up hiking....in fact, it was pretty near the top of things she 'would just rather not do!' The mosquitoes and cold of Minnesota, combined with her speed and discomfort kept her off the trails and safely ensconced in the world of writing and photography. However, one day she moved to Portland and found herself venturing outside. At first, she still hated it, but it wasn't long before the beauty around her began calling her to the trails. In her own words, "she fell in love with the air, the moss, the views, the waterfalls, and most of all, the strength that she felt whenever she hiked." As she grew to love the outdoors, she also realized, more and more, that she was not represented at all out there. A self-proclaimed fat, queer woman, she never saw anyone like herself on the trails. So she decided to create a community where people like her could come together. Her goal was to make a safe place for folks that are under-represented in the outdoors, and she did just that by creating Fat Girls Hiking. Now, Summer not only leads hikes and outings in the Portland area but also has extended her reach to include chapters in Minnesota and Tennessee. And don't let the name of the group fool you, everyone is welcome in Fat Girl's Hiking! Summer has reached out to every person who is looking for a place to fall in love with the outdoors, themselves, and life. She has taken body-positivism, outreach, and acceptance to a whole new level and has created something truly special. Whether it be hiking, boxing, accessibility outings, or yoga, Summer is reaching out and making a difference by creating a place in the outdoors for everyone. After I talk to Summer, join me as I share my own Appalachian Trail Adventures. As I start my thru-hike attempt, I encounter giants, gunfire, and spiritual renewal in the form of red and green soda cans. Special thanks to Huthmaker Violins, Dixie Huthmaker in particular, The Burns Sisters, and the Hiking Radio Network for making this episode possible.
The best part about the internet? Real communities and businesses are built there. It's one place that movements can be made visible. While the "outdoors" and "online" can seem like an oxymoron, social media and other online platforms have enabled women to ignite change within the outdoor space. Even in the wilderness, we are never too far from technology. And while that can be a negative thing, this episode explores the positives that spring from women outdoors, online. We talk with Heather Balogh Rochfort aka "Just A Colorado Gal"; Nicole Brown, co-founder of @WomenWhoHike; Deanne Buck, executive director of Camber Outdoors; and hear from Summer Michaud-Skog of "Fat Girls Hiking", Zoe Balaconis of "Misadventures Magazine", Hatie Parameter of "Whoa Mag", and Jainee Dial, cofounder of "Wylder Goods".
