We meet Jesse Cody and Mike Rose today, and hear about their non-profit, Hike the Good Hike, an organization committed to enhance mental wellness through nature. They have partnered with several well-known outdoor brands to provide a path for a disparate cohort of people taking on US hikes in 2026. Jesse and Mike value the stories that hikers tell and this podcast will help tell some of those stories as we meet most, if not all, of the 2026 cohort in the coming weeks. I encourage you all to find out more about this deserving organization at their website, Hike The Good Hike and, should you wish to donate to the cause, you can do so here. Give Back with HTGH Also today, we meet Max Kiel from Hyperlite Mountain Gear, as he shares his knowledge about the four packs I wanted to learn about. I had my clear preference coming into the conversation, and he clarified my thinking. Here's the pack I chose. Finally today, my accountability blog records the hiatus I had in my training before picking up once more, earlier this week. I've also got gear, food and transportation issues to share with you all. I used my hike last year on the South West Coast Path in the UK to help raise money for my absolute favorite charity, Parenting Matters, on whose board I've been privileged to serve for over a decade. You can learn more about the hike and the organization–and donate–by visiting Hike with Steve - Empowering Parents, One Step at a Time | Parenting Matters %. I hope you want to support this critical mission. Don't forget. Our entire series of videos from our Woods Hole Weekend in 2022 is now FREE and available at my YouTube page at Woods Hole Weekend - Trailer There, you'll find all sorts of tips and tricks that our guests took away from the weekend that helped them with their own hikes this year. Check it out. I often ask listeners for ideas on who to interview, and I'm sure several of you say, "I could do that. I've got an awesome story to tell." You're the person we need to hear from. If you'd like to be interviewed on the podcast, just register as a guest on the link below, and I'll be in touch. Come on the show!

Welcome to the Find Your Fierce Podcast, where you will discover your fierce, unlock an unstoppable mindset, build unbreakable courage, and completely transform how you show up every single day. I'm your host, Jill Allen, and I'm so glad you're joining me today. In this powerful episode of Find Your Fierce, we're talking about the one thing that quietly shapes everything in your life—your beliefs. Not the ones you say out loud, but the ones running in the background… the ones that decide how you show up, what you go after, and what you talk yourself out of. Because here's the truth: most high-achieving women don't struggle because they're lazy or unmotivated. They struggle because something deep inside them is saying, "You can't," "You shouldn't," or "Who do you think you are?" And no amount of to-do lists or good intentions can overpower a belief that's working against you. From the dream job you never apply for… to the health habits you start on Monday and forget by Friday… to the goals you secretly wonder if you're even worthy of… —we talk about the real reason you feel stuck, and how to finally break free. This episode is your permission slip to trade fear for faith, comfort for courage, and self-doubt for the identity God already gave you. If you've ever said, "I know what to do, I just can't seem to do it," this is going to hit home. Here's a peek at what we cover: 1:33 — Why your subconscious beliefs—not your intentions—decide your habits, choices, and results. 3:28 — How fear and old stories keep you in jobs or situations you've outgrown. 4:22 — Why the way you see yourself directly affects your ability to stay consistent with your health. 5:01 — How one tiny action can build momentum and deepen your belief in what's possible. 5:46 — The sneaky ways comfort and fear work together to keep you playing small. 6:29 — Why your health is tied to what you believe about your worth—and how to take ownership of it. 8:28 — How seeing your body as a gift shifts the way you show up for it. 9:17 — The four big belief barriers: fear, self-doubt, comfort, and overwhelm—and how they keep you from trusting God fully. 14:27 — What actually happens when belief meets action, even when you're scared. 16:17 — Stepping into your God-given potential by replacing fear with His truth. 19:04 — Why taking one small step of faith can unlock your purpose and start the growth you've been waiting for. Key Takeaway: "Health is a choice. And that choice is deeply connected to how much you value yourself… When you start seeing your body as a gift, not just something to be fixed or to be managed, you start making healthier choices."-Jill Allen "God does not call us to comfort. He calls us to courage… Every major move of God in Scripture required someone to leave their comfort zone."-Jill Allen Check out my favorite health must-haves HERE!

This time instead of growing cannabis plants we're going to be exploring the world of ornamental cacti! In particular several cultivars of Trichocereus cacti!

Thank you all for sticking with this part of the journey of Terpene Therapy, the cannabis content will be back before you know it!Also this episode will be coming out on my mom's birthday, she would be 76 this year.

This month on Unpacked, we're diving into Afar's just-released Where to Go list—but this year's picks are different. In 2026, we want to lessen the burden on overtouristed destinations and expand visitation to other parts of the world. Our editors carefully selected 24 emerging regions and overlooked locales that will inspire your next great adventure. For Peru, that means looking beyond Machu Picchu and Cusco to discover what lies south—a region of white volcanic cities, canyons twice as deep as the Grand Canyon, and a food scene that rivals Lima's in flavor (if not fame). In this episode, host Aislyn Greene talks with Mark Johanson, a Chile-based travel writer and author of Mars on Earth: Wanderings in the World's Driest Desert. Mark recently explored southern Peru—from the gleaming colonial streets of Arequipa to the condor-filled skies above the Colca Canyon—and found a landscape rich with adventure, history, and some of the heartiest food in the Andes. Plan Your Southern Peru Getaway In Arequipa Stay at Cirqa—a luxury hotel in a 16th-century monastery Explore the Santa Catalina Monastery—a city-within-a-city with salmon-pink walls and centuries of history Eat at a traditional picanterías like La Nueva Palomino or the more modern Victoria Picantería Try the rocoto relleno (stuffed spicy pepper), chupe de camarones (river shrimp chowder), and adobo arequipeño (tangy pork stew) Wash it down with chicha de guiñapo—the original Andean purple corn beer served in huge glasses called "el caporal" Colca Canyon & Beyond Stay at Puquio—Peru's first safari-style adventure camp in Colca Canyon Watch dozens of Andean condors ride the thermals at sunrise Hike into the canyon and experience the climate shift from cold highlands to near-tropical canyon floor Mountain bike down a volcano (for the brave) or hike up one (for the rest of us) Cotahuasi & Toro Muerto Stay at Tinajani—a new tented camp in the Tinajani Canyon Explore pre-Inca ruins with very few other visitors Experience the wind-swept plains and golden seasonal landscapes Lake Titicaca Stay at Titilaka—with a new sister property coming in 2027 Visit the world's highest navigable lake at 12,500 feet Spot flamingos in high-altitude lagoons along the way Getting Around Belmond Andean Explorer—a luxury train connecting Arequipa to Lake Titicaca and Cusco SA Expeditions—for tailor-made trips and off-the-beaten-path Qhapaq Ñan (ancient Incan trail) adventures Resources Follow Mark's work on his website and pick up his book Mars on Earth Explore all 24 destinations on our Where to Go in 2026 list Follow us on Instagram: @afarmedia Stay Connected Sign up for our podcast newsletter, Behind the Mic, where we share upcoming news and behind-the-scenes details of each episode.

When the Canyon's main arteries close, adventure doesn't stop — it just shifts. In this episode, Brian teams up with Canyon veteran James Tenelshof for a day on the rugged Tanner Trail, one of the most rewarding and least-traveled routes on the South Rim. Together, they chase Escalante Peak, get cliffed out, dodge rain, and learn firsthand why off-corridor hiking demands equal parts respect, patience, and humility. Along the way, they discuss the growing push to reopen North Kaibab, the future of corridor maintenance, and what the Dragon Bravo Fire might mean for hikers in 2025.It's a raw, honest look at what happens when you step beyond the crowds — and discover that sometimes the best adventures are the ones that don't go to plan.*****Our new hiking packs are here!

His path shows how discipline, humility, and a deep respect for family history can reshape an entire trajectory.He brings us into recon life: brutal weather, relentless training, and the humor that kept both ROK and U.S. Marines pushing forward. The rations may have been questionable, but the standard never was.Off the battlefield, Minjoon reflects on leading with kindness, tuning out the noise, and why the strongest Marines never start with “I.” Legacy—Korea, Vietnam, Desert Storm—became his compass more than rank ever could.Stay unarmored, stay authentic, and stay mentally fit. And as always — I'm praying for you all. God bless.Key Takeaways

A Utah father, Micah Smith, took his three young children on what prosecutors now call a “not well planned,” “ill-prepared,” and “extremely dangerous” hike into Big Cottonwood Canyon. Hours later, two children are unconscious from hypothermia, one appears dead when rescuers arrive, and the story Micah Smith tells doesn't match what investigators later uncover. According to the indictment, Micah Smith pushed toward the top of Broads Fork despite rain, fog, wind, and kids who repeatedly begged to go home, and he taught his 8-year-old daughter CPR because he knew help was too far away. Let's examine the route, the behavior, the marital strains, the mental-health indicators, the previous suicide-related police encounter, and the troubling allegations prosecutors are laying out against Micah Smith.#MicahSmith #BigCottonwoodCanyon #BroadsForkTrail #SaltLakeCounty #UtahCrime #ChildTorture #ChildAbuse #TrueCrime #ProfilingEvil #MappingEvil #GIS #Esri #CourtTV #WasatchMountains #SearchAndRescue #Parenting #MentalHealth #DomesticStrain The Hike That Terrorized Micah Smith's Children | Profiling Evil=======================================Email your questions to: ProfilingEvil@gmail.com========================================LOOKING FOR WAYS TO SUPPORT PROFILING EVIL?

Microsoft has announced a price increase for its Office productivity software subscriptions, set to take effect on July 1, 2026. The Microsoft 365 Business Basic subscription will rise from $6 to $7 per user per month, while the Business Standard subscription will increase from $12.50 to $14. Additionally, the Microsoft 365 E3 enterprise subscription will see a 13% hike from $23 to $26. This adjustment follows a period of infrequent price changes since the launch of Office 365 in 2011 and reflects Microsoft's significant investment in its platform, which has introduced over 1,100 new features in the past year. Managed Service Providers (MSPs) should prepare for customer pushback regarding these increases, as clients may direct their frustrations toward their service providers rather than Microsoft.In related developments, several companies have announced product updates aimed at simplifying user experiences. Nerdio has enhanced its enterprise platform to support Azure Virtual Desktop in hybrid environments, while Coro has released version 3.7 of its cybersecurity platform, which features a redesigned interface for improved management. Comcast Business has also upgraded its internet services for small businesses, offering faster speeds and enhanced reliability. These updates indicate a broader trend toward simplifying technology solutions, but they also introduce new governance risks that MSPs must address.The episode also highlights a shift in educational trends, with an increasing number of college students opting for artificial intelligence majors over traditional computer science degrees. This change is driven by concerns over job market prospects for computer science graduates. As universities adapt their curricula to meet the demand for AI skills, MSPs may face challenges in finding candidates who possess the necessary infrastructure knowledge to support business operations effectively.For MSPs and IT service leaders, these developments underscore the importance of proactive communication with clients regarding price changes and the value of technology investments. As tools become more automated and user-friendly, the need for robust governance and security measures becomes paramount. MSPs should focus on ensuring that their clients understand the implications of these changes and the necessity of maintaining foundational IT practices, particularly as the talent pipeline shifts toward AI-focused education. Four Things to Know Today:00:00 Microsoft's 2026 M365 Price Hike Highlights Its Market Power—and Forces MSPs to Reframe Value With Customers03:14 Automation and Simplified Dashboards Dominate New Releases, but Experts Say MSPs Still Shoulder the Governance Burden06:54 AI Majors Surge as Computer Science Enrollment Falls, Reshaping the Tech Talent Pipeline08:55 MCP's Rapid Adoption Outpaces Governance, Creating Opportunity—and Risk—for MSPs Managing AI Integration Sponsored by: https://scalepad.com/dave/https://getflexpoint.com/msp-radio/
Mighty Blue On The Appalachian Trail: The Ultimate Mid-Life Crisis
Emily Manzon, or Tic Tac, is our guest this week. Emily was looking for an epic way to celebrate her 40th birthday this year, so the Appalachian Trail certainly checked that box. Along the way, Emily gained a respect for the trail and the impact it had upon her, using mantras to reflect her attitude along the way. Missing 200 miles partway through, she could have been content as a 2,000-miler, yet returned to the trail for a more solitary experience as she filled in those miles, heading south. Also this week, I welcomed Dan Durston from Durston Gear to help me with my tent choice for next year's hike. Dan answered all my questions, and I settled on this little beauty below. I'm so looking forward to using the X-Dome 2 next March. In my accountability blog, I share a bit of bad news on the physical prep front, while explaining why I chose the X-Dome 2 as my tent for 2026. I used my hike last year on the South West Coast Path in the UK to help raise money for my absolute favorite charity, Parenting Matters, on whose board I've been privileged to serve for over a decade. You can learn more about the hike and the organization–and donate–by visiting Hike with Steve - Empowering Parents, One Step at a Time | Parenting Matters %. I hope you want to support this critical mission. Don't forget. Our entire series of videos from our Woods Hole Weekend in 2022 is now FREE and available at my YouTube page at Woods Hole Weekend - Trailer There, you'll find all sorts of tips and tricks that our guests took away from the weekend that helped them with their own hikes this year.

In this reflective episode with, Patrick Kelly he shares how the Water for All Hike with BLUE Missions and Continental Fresh reshaped his perspective on something most of us never think twice about: water. After walking the same paths families in the Dominican Republic travel daily to access clean water, Patrick describes the weight of their stories, the resilience of the communities he met, and the realization that water isn't a convenience — it's life, opportunity, and the foundation for a thriving future.Patrick then connects this experience back to the produce industry, reminding his listeners that water is the starting point of everything we grow, ship, and serve. Clean water doesn't just hydrate people — it activates communities, powering local agriculture, entrepreneurship, and economic stability.

Tom Margaria, a retired FDNY firefighter, set out on January 1st from Key West to hike the 5700 mile Eastern Continental Trail. On the way, Tom met up with–and joined–the "Over the Hill Gang," the group including Dave Santi, one of my Mighty Blue Class of 25 this year. Tom, a man of deep faith, would ask people he met along the way how he could pray for them. This kind request came with a variety of answers, though Tom always saw the positives. He made it to the end, and reflects upon his mammoth journey with Steve. Also on the show today, is Tayson Whittaker, owner of Outdoor Vitals, an interesting gear company with an impressive business model and an equally impressive boss.
