In today's episode, we had the pleasure to speak with Jessica Waldock from The Waldock Way. Her curriculum for elementary-aged children is unique in that it is meant to accommodate varying ages and isn't prescriptive, but rather provides a "feast" of resources for your learners. We also talked about her homeschool life in rural Florida and her experience homeschooling an only child. This was a very fun and informative interview!

In our first episode on matrescence, we talked about continuing to carry a love for nature and time outside into pregnancy as we prepare for the major life change of becoming a parent. This episode continues into the next phase in the process, when the much-anticipated birth is over, and we step into this new role and all that it entails, indoors and out.From the tender early days of the fourth trimester, to integrating the outdoors into your little one's lives as they grow, the postpartum phase of matrescence is a complex period of healing, care-giving, bonding, learning and un-learning. It's a time that can simultaneously hold grief and ambivalence, and profound joy — all in the same hand.In this episode, we'll hear from Rukmini Halliwell and Rachel Barrett again, speaking about the early days with their children Zen and Lola, who are now 21 months and 9 months old, respectively. And we'll also be joined by Jessie Harrold, a coach and a doula who supports women through various rites of passage, including that of matresence. Listen to part 1, available on your feed now.Featured in this episode: Rukmini Halliwell, Rachel Barrett, & Jessie HarroldHosted & Produced by Hailey HirstEditing & production support by Gale StraubA production of Ravel MediaSponsored by Yonder, Danner, Goodr, & OrganifiJoin the She Explores Podcast community on FacebookVisit She-Explores.com & Follow Us on InstagramResourcesFeatured in this episode: Rukmini Halliwell: Instagram @rukminihalliwellRachel Barrett: Instagram @luminiousandwildJessie Harrold:  Instagram @jessie.es.harrold | Podcast | WebsiteSubmit Your Story of KindnessMatrescence--What is it?Ravel MediaSponsors and Discount CodesYonder: Get $100 off your first stay with the code SheExplores100 at checkout via Yonder.com.Goodr: Get 15% off your sunglasses order by using the code EXPLORE15 at checkout at Goodr.com.Danner: GO THERE in Danner's most iconic women's styles by visiting Danner.com.Organifi: Head to organifi.com/explore and use code EXPLORE for 20% off. Episodes air weekly on Wednesdays-- subscribe wherever you listen so you never miss an episode.

Welcome to the Hiking My Feelings Virtual Campfire. This 20-day event is a fundraiser for the Hiking My Feelings Wilderness Wellness Center, the American Diabetes Association, and RAINN - the nation's largest anti-sexual violence organization. Each night from May 26-June 14, 2020 we are going live at 5pm PT to bring inspiration, hope, and healing to the community in these uncertain times. If you find value in what we're sharing here, please consider making a contribution to our non-profit organization. You can get tickets to the Virtual Campfire at https://hikingmyfeelings.org/campfire and you can make a one-time donation at https://hikingmyfeelings.org/give /// When was the last time you played like a kid? No matter what your answer is, tonight you can remember how to play with Gary Ware around the Virtual Campfire. Gary is the founder of @breakthroughplay, an improvisor, and one of my favorite humans. In fact, Gary was my improv teacher at @finestcityimprov, and his Yoda-like wisdom straight up changed everything about how I see myself and move through the world. After Gary reminds us that it's okay to not take ourselves so seriously, we are chatting with Shanti Hodges, the founder of Hike It Baby. With the help of Jessica Carrillo Alatorre, she brought the organization from being a small hike group she founded in 2013, to a national non-profit supporting thousands of families to get on trails together. She founded the group after looking for a way to get outside with other parents in her area. We are also chatting with Marionette Audifferen! Marionette developed a heart for nature and the outdoors at an early age. She explored and played in the creek behind her home and was introduced to camping as a Girl Scout. Then life happened. Marriage, four children and 10 years living abroad resulted in less time in nature. After returning to the U.S. in 2013, Marionette picked up hiking. Earlier this year, she started the Nurtured by Nature Club to help African-American families explore and connect with nature. Marionette is also a GirlTrek Organizer and Adventure Squad Leader, encouraging African-American women to practice radical self-care through the simple act of walking. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/hikingmyfeelings/support

Autumn Cullen came on the Wealth Preservation Podcast and laid down the hammer: nobody has excuses! That’s right! When the mother of 4 high energy boys found out she was having a special needs “tubie” baby (term used for community of tube fed individuals), she made it her mission to raise her daughter in the highest of standards without compromising the upbringing of her boys. That is were she ran into issues. Commercial formula did not provide her daughter with the dietary stability that her and her boys enjoyed. It also made it impossible to take the boys on hiking and backpacking trips as her daughter (and her heavy formula) had to be packed in and packed out. So, what did Autumn do? Create an enteral formula alternative to the big commercial formula available which gave her daughter a more well-balanced diet AND afforded her an active life with a tubie! She then saw the bigger calling! So many lives could be improved if she just added “mompreneur” onto her resume. We explore the journey of creating a nutrient dense enteral formula, the struggles of creating something new, her experience as a single mother entrepreneur, and how she got the attention of Hike It Baby, Backpacker Magazine, and Merrell!

Meet some of the Harrisburg area’s most fascinating people, and hear their own authentic stories, straight from every month’s issue—with a different twist—on TheBurg Podcast. Because there’s always “more to the story.” Hosted by Karen Hendricks. TheBurg is a monthly community magazine based in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania; Lawrance Binda, co-publisher/editor. Life as we know it is changed. The COVID-19 pandemic is the first national and international crisis most of us have ever experienced.

With that in mind, this month’s podcast reflects news from a variety of those perspectives. We’ll have an update on Central Pennsylvania’s small businesses and how they’re weathering this storm, featuring David Black, President and CEO, Harrisburg Regional Chamber and Capital Region Economic Development Corporation. We’ll also talk with a Harrisburg area musician, Xander Moppin of Yam Yam, about how the pandemic is affecting the arts. And enjoying a breath of fresh air, outdoors, has never sounded so good. We’ll explore hiking with reporter Maddie Conley. “Trailing Along,” in the April issue of TheBurg, explains how the organization Hike It Baby is introducing the next generation to nature. (https://theburgnews.com/sports-health/trailing-along-parents-kids-enjoy-nature-together-through-hike-it-baby-harrisburg) Plus Lawrance Binda, editor of TheBurg, will share TMHT, “the most Harrisburg thing,” amid the pandemic.

When Shanti Hodges had her son Mason, she knew she wanted to share her love of nature with him. She saw a lack of organized outdoor activities for families and decided to do something about it. She ended up helping thousands of families get outside and get active. Her organization Hike It Baby has grown from an informal gathering in Portland, OR, to a nation-wide network of parents and children hiking together and supporting each other. Shanti built this community from the ground up, but now she’s taking a step back to focus on her own family and her next professional adventure in Utah. In this episode, Shanti and Shelby talk about how Hike it Baby has changed lives, supporting amazing women and must-have tips to taking kids hiking and in the outdoors.Connect with Shanti:WebsiteFacebookTwitterInstagramResources:Hike It BabyMirna ValerioKatie Arnold Melody Forsyth on InstagramChris MacDougall - Running with ShermanAdventure MamasAdvertisement:REI Adventure TravelRelated episodes:Mirna ValerioChris MacDougall  

Wherever you are in the world I hope you had an amazing summer. I know I did. Over the last several months I've been on the road collecting stories for a broad new initiative to explore how people find their way into the outdoors. With grant funding from my partners at the nonprofits American Rivers and the National Forest Foundation along with Patagonia I made stops in the states of Georgia and Oregon to trace the routes of the great rivers that run through their biggest cities. From the Chattahoochee National Forest to Atlanta and the Willamette National Forest to Portland I went searching a direct connection between people in these urban centers and wilderness areas on Federally protected public land about 120 miles away. It didn't take long for me to realize that for many folks live in cities nature is closer than they think and with just a little bit of help they can find their own pathway to the outdoors. Along this journey I connected with an amazing organization based in the city of Portland called Hike It Baby. Created by my friend and colleague Shanti Hodges Hike It Baby connects families with children to wonderful outdoor experiences on short walks along easily accessible trails in cities across America and more than a few foreign countries. Like any great invention Shanti says the mother of her idea was necessity. "I just wanted to figure out a way to find people to get outside with. So I initially just built a website a Facebook group and a newsletter," she said in an interview.  "I went on looking for hiking groups in Portland with babies and I found nothing." Within a few weeks Shanti added about one hundred people to her newsletter list. She got texts every day wanting to know when she was hiking next. "I was leading four or five hikes a week and hundreds of people were texting me and calling me and Facebooking me. And then within a year we had a thousand and then people started writing me around the country," she said. "They started seeing pictures and asking how are you getting out with these groups of people to these amazing hikes? People started writing me and telling me they were lonely and they were looking for friends and could they start a group in their town. I'd pay to send them business cards. I'd have business cards made so they could hand them out so people could find the website, find the hikes and we built a little calendar and it just exploded!" Hike It Baby now has members numbering in the tens of thousands. And with hundreds of ambassadors around the world this remarkable organization brings families and children into the outdoors to become not only nature enthusiasts but also environmental stewards. There are Hike It Baby branches located in cities everywhere. If you can't find one near you, maybe you can start one. If you want to learn more about how you can get involved just visit them online at hikeitbaby.org.   New music this week by Michael Shynes and Paper Planes courtesy of Artlist.         The Joy Trip Project is made possible thanks to the generous support of American Rivers, The National Forest Foundation and Patagonia.

Shanti Hodges drops plenty of insight into starting and operating a non profit on this episode. Facebook Twitter Instagram   The Outdoor Biz Podcast   Please give us a rating and review HERE   Show Notes First Exposure to the Outdoors I think really, just from the very beginning, my parents were always outside. I grew up in rural Canada as a little kid and so we were outside a lot. And then as I got older I moved to Eugene, Oregon, and that's a very outdoorsy town. So, you know, I was around at the beginning of mountain biking and I had a mountain bike club that I started in my high school when I was 15. I always loved being outside and it was always something I felt like I could do and I didn't feel pressure like I felt with other sports.
