Eleanor is training for the Grand Canyon rim-to-rim this May: a legendary hike that's 25 miles, 11,000 feet of elevation change, all in one day. But here's the thing: she's not doing this simply because she loves to hike. She's doing it because her business cannot afford anything less than a well-rested, deeply recovered CEO. This week, Eleanor is sharing why she's creating her body like a business operating system in 2026. This isn't a health journey episode - it's about what happens when a CEO becomes the weakest link in her own company. Tune in today to understand why your under-recovery might be the real reason your scale pathway isn't working. Eleanor shares her 2026 health plan, which mirrors exactly what she's building inside Jewel OS for her clients. Most importantly, you'll learn about deload weeks and get Eleanor's exact protocol that allows her to protect elite recovery while running a multi-seven-figure company.

The Grand Canyon has always been a magnet for the bold, the reckless, and the people who look at a mile-deep chasm and think... yeah, I can take that. In this episode, we race through a century of jaw-dropping stunts, from a 1922 biplane pilot who somehow landed inside the park's early boundaries to Nik Wallenda balancing across tribal land on a high-wire without a harness. Along the way we unravel how thrill-seekers dodged rules, rewrote them, or ignored them entirely in a quest to outdo nature itself.

Send us a textA simple plan to tackle Nevada's ET Highway turns into a cross-state quest for awe. We kick things off in Phoenix and climb toward Flagstaff, chasing a crisp horizon and a stop at a veterans memorial built to catch the sun at 11:11 on 11/11. The Grand Canyon delivers that familiar shock of scale from new South Rim overlooks, and then Route 66 starts pulling us back in time. Seligman feels like a living postcard, Kingman frames your car under an iconic sign, and Oatman steals the show with wooden storefronts, a daily shootout, and wild burros who wander the street like they own it.We veer into California for Joshua Tree National Park and watch the landscape morph into Dr. Seuss silhouettes and boulder gardens. Earthcaches push us off the road to touch geology, and the golden-hour light makes even the cholla glow. On the way back, a roadside cache under a giant Coke bottle and a plane casually landing for supplies remind us that desert highways never run out of surprises. Then it's Vegas for a quick reset, where budget-friendly beds come with steep fees and the food is pricey but memorable. We meet friends, pull the slot lever once, and wake up early for the main event.Nine cars. Thousands of caches. A system that replaces every container and turns a blank desert shoulder into a well-oiled route. The ET Highway demands patience, spare tires, and teamwork, but the payoff is huge: a full sweep logged and a convoy full of stories. Tonopah adds color with dinner at the Mizpah Hotel—said to be the most haunted in America—and a stroll past the Clown Motel and its neighboring historic cemetery, where hand-stamped plaques record how lives ended in stark detail. It's a raw counterpoint to the neon a few hours south.The finale is pure future: The Sphere and The Wizard of Oz in 16K. The tornado brings wind and cold across the seats. Snow drifts from the ceiling. Apples drop. And flying monkeys become drones circling overhead. It's the classic film, intact, surrounded by AI-extended worldbuilding that turns watching into inhabiting. If the Grand Canyon is a natural wonder that humbles, this is a man-made wonder that lifts your jaw and won't let go. Hit play for the full route, the geocaching tactics, the small-town gems, and a cinematic experience you'll be talking about for weeks.

In today's episode, I'm walking you through our full five-day Scottsdale and Grand Canyon trip... what we did, what we loved, the things that surprised us, and why this trip ended up being exactly what our family needed.We are typically beach vacation people, but this one slowed us down and reminded me that sometimes the best memories are made when you choose the unfamiliar.Mentioned in this episode:
In today's episode of Ordinarily Extraordinary – Conversations with Women in STEM, Kathy and Linda sit down with environmental engineer and river guide Mishael Umlor — a woman who pressed pause on her engineering career to live a year of adventure, intention, and joy.Kathy first met Mishael this summer while rowing through the Grand Canyon on a 14-day paddle trip. What began as a passing “Wait… you're an engineer?” moment turned into months of wanting to learn more about her unconventional, intentional path. Today, you'll hear that full story.About Mishael UmlorMishael holds both bachelor's and master's degrees in environmental engineering and worked for the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers on hydrology, water quality, and river systems modeling. After earning her PE, she made the bold decision to step away for a year to travel, guide rivers, reconnect with family, and build a life that aligns with her values.During her year away she:Guided rafting trips in the Grand CanyonTraveled for six weeks in Belize — where she and her husband had their wedding attire custom-designedRode motorcycles through Central AmericaSpent months backcountry camping in BajaCompleted a five-week ski tour using a DIY truck camperVisited family across the MidwestGot marriedAnd reconnected with the outdoors in ways that shape the next chapter of her engineering careerHer story is a powerful example of designing a life with intentionality, courage, and creativity.In This Episode, We Talk About:How Mishael discovered environmental engineering through community college and a love of mathHer experience working for the U.S. Army Corps of EngineersTaking a year off after earning her PE — what she learned and how she made it possibleThe logistics and finances of long-term travel and seasonal livingRiver guiding, safety stories, and what it's really like flipping a fully loaded kitchen boat in the Grand CanyonFinding balance between a technical career and a passion-driven outdoor lifestyleWhat she wants her engineering career to look like next — and how she plans to blend contract work and river-based fieldworkThe beauty of creating a life you actually want (even when it doesn't look like the traditional path)Why You'll Love This EpisodeMishael's story is a refreshing and inspiring look at the many ways women in STEM can shape careers that don't fit into boxes. Her honesty about fear, joy, logistics, and dreams makes this a conversation that will resonate with anyone rethinking their own path — whether early, mid, or late career.Connect & FollowIf you enjoyed this episode, please rate and review the podcast on Apple Podcasts or Spotify — it helps others discover these stories.Follow the podcast so you never miss an episode, and share with a friend, colleague, or fellow adventurer.Have a question or comment?Email us at OrdinarilyExtraordinaryPod@gmail.comor leave a voicemail at Ordinarily-Extraordinary.comSupport the show
AP correspondent Ed Donahue reports it's not easy getting hydrated at the Grand Canyon right now.
Should the U.S. Government sell off some federal land? The mere suggestion of such a proposal will draw accusations that you are trying to pave over the Grand Canyon and grind Half Dome down to sell for gravel. However, what if we could sell unused, barren federal land in order to pay down some of our debt, or balance our budget?Dr. Alex Tokarev joins the Gwartney Institute for an interesting discussion about a proposal that he's defended in print: let's sell off some federal land!
Eric and Bruce are back after a Thanksgiving break. On Sunday Night Football, the Broncos pulled out another win, this time on the road in OT vs. the Commanders, 27-26. Are the Broncos a team of destiny or walking the tight rope over the Grand Canyon? Why can't the offense show more consistency? Since J.K. Dobbins was lost to injury, the running game hasn't been the same. Can this be fixed? Marcus Mariota played well and may have shown the rest of the league some insight on how to beat the Broncos defense. Plus, the Colorado Buffaloes finished their 2025 season at 3-9. Eric and Bruce give their overall take on the season and look ahead to what the future might hold in Boulder. Catch a Victory Monday edition of Hot Takes with Eric Goodman and Bruce Haertl!

This is a Thanksgiving special episode of the Free Outside Podcast, a mix of long-run thoughts, unpopular opinions, and one of the most meaningful adventures of my life, the Great Western Loop.I talk about why I think we are historically illiterate, why it is okay to chase goals even if they feel pointless to other people, whether turkey trots have gotten too serious, and my very important theory on whether drones killed the blimp. I also get into why self-supported FKTs matter so much to me and why I think they deserve more respect than they get.Then I rewind eight years to finishing the Great Western Loop on Thanksgiving. I break down what the Loop actually is, how I planned the massive cross-country connector from the Grand Canyon back to the PCT, why self-supported style creates better adventure, and some of the wildest moments from the entire 7,000-mile journey. From cowbell mornings on the Pacific Northwest Trail, to getting all the bikers in Yaak, Montana in trouble for cooking 20 pounds of bacon, to freezing on the CDT, navigating by map and compass on the Grand Enchantment Trail, sleeping in the bottom of the Grand Canyon, and finishing on Thanksgiving near Parker, Arizona.This adventure changed the entire direction of my life and planted the seed for every FKT that followed.This episode is brought to you by Janji at janji.com.

Ever wondered the secret to marriages that last 60 years? I heard about an elderly couple celebrating their diamond anniversary who shared their story: On their honeymoon at the Grand Canyon, the wife's mule stumbled, and she said calmly to the animal, “That's once.” When it stumbled again, she said, “That's twice.” The third time, she got off and shot the mule right between the eyes. When her husband asked why, she looked him in the eyes and said, “That's once”—and they never had another major disagreement! While there's humor in that story, the truth is that God desires for everyone who gets married to truly live happily ever after. When two people get married, it's God's will for that marriage to be a happy union instead of a civil war. He wants every marriage to end in celebration, not separation, enjoying marriage, not enduring it. That's why God's Word gives us a marriage example through an old love song: It's King Solomon's Song of Songs. In this book, you find the four essential keys to building a marriage that lasts.

This week: National parks reopen after the government shutdown — but not before one of them gets hit with a rash of graffiti. Winter closures are rolling in across the park system, including some big changes at Yellowstone and the Grand Canyon. The Park Service is trying to hire 500 new law enforcement rangers with an eye-popping $70,000 bonus… while a new academic study shows national parks are still some of the safest places you can visit. We'll also look at the Justice Department's renewed crackdown on marijuana use on federal land, the controversy surrounding the nominee to lead the Bureau of Land Management. Plus — a presidential pardon for a record-setting trail runner, and the unbelievable moment a man walked straight toward a pack of wolves in Yellowstone.

So, you know, keep me posted. I would say sorry to hear that the government isn't really working where you are, but if there's one thing I like about this world, it's that there's no government. I mean, there's no conflict really, other than me and Harry squabbling over things day to day. But still, I was never a huge fan. But if you've been listening to me for a while, then you know that that's the case. You know that I was never one to, um, avoid breaking the law. There are definitely government agencies that I was more afraid of than others back in the world, but the FCC definitely was not one of them. Not that I ever had any reason to encounter them, but a bunch of pencil pushers, I imagine. So let me be the devil on your shoulder saying to just break those rules. Whatever it is that's holding you back, it doesn't sound like anybody's going to get in your way now. And life is short, so you might as well take whatever risk you want to while you can.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

(00:00-20:32) A classic Rogers and Hammerstein piece. It took Harrison's Brother Master 48 minutes to go back on his word about texting in. Movie Boi gives one current film that must be seen. Reads Nancy Drew books, hates documentaries. Shrewsbury Seminary Student on the phone lines. Question about the TMA Reddit. Finally cleared to swim again after his snipping. Does Doug wanna hit the sauna with him? Protein bar talk. Municipality warfare.(20:40-30:10) This doesn't sound like South Pacific to me. There's a fight brewing in the YouTube chat between Cucky and Jake in St. Gen. Roll Tide is on the phone lines with a question about fandom. Do you have to have gone to a school to be a fan? There's that sinister laugh again.(30:20-53:02) This is a Detroit Pistons town. Billikens coach Josh Schertz checks in with us on the phone line. Working his way around the dais. Coach's thoughts on his team's 3-0 start. Trying to play as many big time opponents as possible. Good opportunity against Grand Canyon. Things he wants to see to drive good offense.

I never thought this was how getting my radio license back in my college days would come in handy. I didn't really use it much before because I was always scared of accidentally breaking some FCC rule and getting chased down by the government. Of course, there isn't really much of a government to enforce anything now so... here I am. I'm sure they had better things to do than go after a college student anyway, but I've always been one to avoid jumping into things without first being reasonably certain of the outcome. I often wonder how much I've missed out on because of that: the things I could have done, places I could've seen, people I could have talked to. What does alternate timeline me look like? We can't change the past and I don't want to, but that doesn't stop us from wondering, does it? I'm kind of inspired by your trip to try out a bit of travel myself though. I've never gone on a solo road trip anywhere, but from the transmissions I caught the Grand Canyon sounded nice. And I'm pretty sure it still exists in this timeline, so maybe that'd a be a good first stop.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

What does it take to build one of the world's top-rated social media management platforms—without a single dollar of outside funding? This week on On Brand, Emeric Ernoult, founder and CEO of Agorapulse, shares how he bootstrapped the company to over $20 million in revenue, pioneered ROI-tracking tools for social, and carved out a powerful niche in a crowded market. We talk scaling smart, making social media actually measurable, and where attribution is headed next. What You'll Learn How Agorapulse bootstrapped its way to $20M+ in revenue without outside funding Why most startups chasing VC money miss what matters most for sustainable growth How attribution has evolved—and why measuring ROI on social is harder than ever The three ways marketers can actually track what's working (and what's not) Why the future isn't social media—it's “interest media” Episode Chapters (00:00) Intro (00:45) Bootstrapping Agorapulse the Hard Way (03:40) The Realities of Going Without Funding (07:20) Reinventing Through Growth and Churn (08:50) From Social Media to Interest Media (10:20) Why Attribution Is Broken (17:50) Three Ways to Track ROI That Actually Work (23:20) How Brands Can Win at Interest Media (29:00) The Brand That Made Emeric Smile About Emeric Ernoult Emeric Ernoult is the founder and CEO of Agorapulse, one of the world's top-rated social media management platforms. Bootstrapped from the ground up, Agorapulse has grown to more than $20 million in annual revenue—without taking a single dollar of outside funding. A pioneer in ROI-tracking for social media, Emeric has built his career around helping brands not just manage their social presence, but measure its real business impact. He's a frequent speaker and writer on marketing measurement, leadership, and scaling companies the sustainable way. What Brand Has Made Emeric Smile Recently? Emeric shared that Alex Hormozi—the entrepreneur and content creator—made him smile recently. After attending Hormozi's workshop in Las Vegas, Emeric was struck by his unfiltered mix of humor and humility. Hormozi's perspective—that we're all small in the grand scheme of things, so we might as well do good and enjoy the work—resonated deeply, especially after Emeric's trip to the Grand Canyon and Zion National Park reminded him of life's scale and simplicity.

According to Bix Weir of Road to Roota, the United States has been on a covert path back to the constitutional gold and silver standard since the 1981 Gold Commission, a secret initiative under Ronald Reagan to dismantle the fiat money scam and restore sound money as mandated by the Constitution. Weir decodes the Federal Reserve's cryptic 1981 comic "Wishes and Rainbows," re-released in 2007, as a roadmap—"The Road to Roota"—outlining the transition from "Grey Flowers" (fiat currency) to "Colorland" (a redeemable gold-backed system), complete with hidden U.S. gold reserves in places like the Grand Canyon to fuel the reset. He argues this plan accelerates under figures like Donald Trump, who is leveraging massive undisclosed gold stashes to collapse the manipulated markets and implement a new gold/silver coin standard via the U.S. Mint, where silver could skyrocket to match gold at a 1:1 ratio, freeing Americans from endless inflation and debt slavery. Central to this liberation is abolishing the Federal Reserve, the "BIG player" Weir identifies as the root of global economic hatred toward the West, with its computer-driven manipulations since Alan Greenspan's era propping up a dying fiat blip; Trump, per Weir, is crashing the [CB] system through engineered chaos, paving the way for constitutional money where every citizen can redeem notes for physical gold and silver, ending the Fed's reign and restoring true freedom. Weir's scathing exposés paint JP Morgan Chase as the epicenter of silver market rigging, with CEO Jamie Dimon—derisively dubbed "Jamie Demon" for his demonic role in financial crimes—leading a cabal that has suppressed silver prices through massive COMEX shorts and derivative slams, all while cashing out ahead of the inevitable squeeze that could drain their "house silver" vaults dry. This manipulation ties directly to Epstein Island scandals, where Weir reveals JP Morgan and Deutsche Bank facilitated the financier's criminal network, enabling cash flows for trafficking that intertwined elite bankers like Dimon with the island's depravities; exposing Epstein's client list, including Dimon's inner circle, would unleash uncontrollable silver demand as the rigged system's veils tear away, crushing the bullion banks and vindicating Weir's long-warned "Silver Alert" for a monetary rebellion.
