In this episode, I chat with Patricia Doe from The Wilderness Group about the beauty of soft adventure travel — those immersive, outdoor experiences that blend nature, culture, and connection in the most meaningful way.Patricia shares her story (including what it was like growing up in a castle-turned-hotel!) and how The Wilderness Group designs soft adventure experiences across the British Isles — from the rugged Highlands of Scotland to the serene landscapes of Ireland, England, and Wales. I also share that I'm collaborating with The Wilderness Group (and why) to create the upcoming 2026 Wander Your Way Adventures to Scotland. And that I'll  be working with them again on future small group tours launching in 2027. Patricia and I dive into how soft adventure in Europe opens doors to local culture through gentle hikes, village walks, and authentic encounters that reveal the heart of a place. We also highlight hidden gems, underrated destinations, and easy ways to get outdoors that make travel both enriching and approachable.Hint: You don't have to be an über fit under 30!If you've ever wanted to experience Europe beyond the main tourist trail and embrace the outdoors, this episode is packed with inspiration and ideas for your next journey.Want to chat more about soft adventure travel?Email lynne at Lynne@WanderYourWay.comIn this episode:1:03: Intro and Introducing Patricia Doe4:27: Patricia's background7:01: The Wilderness Group10:54: Special place for Patricia14:06: Patricia's picks19:05: Trip expectations28:10: Cities vs Nature35:30: More of Patricia's favorite places39:13: Fitness level49:00: Final thoughts54:58: Soft adventures and Wander Your Way1:02:47: Wrapping it upImportant links:Wilderness ScotlandWilderness IrelandWilderness EnglandWander Your Way AdventuresSolo Traveler Tracey's ListWhy Europe Is an Amazing Destination for Nature LoversOutdoors Europe with Jackie NourseWander Your Way ResourcesWander Your Way ★ Support this podcast ★

Steve and I share our learnings (and laughs) from Scenic Sundays - a day once a month we set aside with no agenda, no plan, and no rush. Just faith, flow, and following what feels good.Scenic Sundays have brought us some of the greatest memories and moments in our relationship. They're the kind of days that remind you what presence actually feels like: deep chats in the car, spontaneous detours, belly laughs, and finding new places we never would've discovered if we'd stuck to a plan.We talk about:How Scenic Sundays began and what it's taught usLetting go of rigidity and trusting intuition to lead the wayThe balance between structure and spontaneityHow creating space for flow opens up new ideas and opportunitiesThis three year ritual we've committed to leans into our motto, 'adventure awaits'. It's probably one of my most favourite things in our relationship.Buy my book, Authentic - coming home to your true self - AUS, EUR, USACoach with me 1:1 - Book a 20-minute call nowThe Good Life - sign up nowSunday Meds - check it outWrite into us - let us know what you want to hearWelleCo - use code KAT15 for 15% off welleco.com.auwww.katjohn.com.auSupport the show

In this episode of the 10Adventures podcast, we are joined by Cassandra Overby, writer, traveler, and author of Home Base Hiking Europe. Cassandra challenges the traditional “see everything” approach to travel and introduces a more meaningful, grounded model: choosing a single village or valley as your base and exploring through daily hikes. Cassandra shares how her philosophy of slow travel grew out of a “travel breakup” in her twenties and evolved into a new way of moving through Europe — one that prioritizes connection, culture, and authentic local life. She explains why small villages offer richer experiences than tourist hotspots and how travelers can blend hiking, culture, food, and community simply by slowing down. From the Dolomites to the Somme, the Piedmont to Provence, Cassandra walks through some of her favorite home-base regions across Europe — and the unique stories, landscapes, and local interactions that make them come alive. This episode is full of practical insights and deep reflections on how to travel better, notice more, and build real connections along the way.

Send us a textCrossing into Washington state when you're on the northbound Pacific Crest Trail, or NOBO, is a milestone–a damn smile-stone. Crossing the Bridge of the Gods with no proper pedestrian path is akin to Frogger. But once across, you might have the urge to fling your arms up to the sky and shout a victory hoot. After replenishing your supplies in town you hit the trail again, and that's when Washington hits, and hits hard. The conditions and terrain change fast. Just when you're ready to call it quits, the next peak comes into view, coaxing you north. Alone in your tent? You wonder if you'll survive the cold that night, kicking yourself for not setting out a month earlier. You fall asleep imagining your trail family is camped out in tents beside yours. But some of them pulled the pin on the trail days earlier. And you're left missing them like a phantom limb.Let's get into it.Washington's nickname is the Evergreen State. Doesn't that sound inviting? Cozy even? Sweet, like a week at summer camp? Well, Washington is no laughing matter.Washington has serious weather, active volcanoes, not to mention creepy lore about UFOs, Bigfoot, globs raining down on towns, teen vampires and werewolves and the all-too-real-serial killers. This is where all that subreddit-binging catches up with you. What seemed entertaining in the safety of your bedroom, funny even, alone on the trail, far removed from population center, those stories flood your imagination. Add a little fog, the cries of an owl, not spotting another hiker for a few miles, and the trail can feel brutal and endless.  Show Sources and MaterialsI just hiked 90 miles of the Pacific Crest Trail on McDoubles, GorillaTaco, YouTubePacific Crest Trail Horror Stories 2024, HalfwayAnywhere.comDiscovering the Spooky Side of Washington: Haunted Hikes in the Pacific Northwest, Pacific Adventure ClubA 'haunted hike' brings a Washington disaster to life, Courtney Flatt, Northwest Public BroadcastingI don't accept sponsors and paid advertisers.

Send us a textThis week we are talking about our life lines. I ask you to consider — who's your lifeline?Not the metaphorical one, but the real, human connection that keeps you afloat when life gets heavy.We'll dig into the interesting history of the word “lifeline,” what research says about how connection affects our health and habits, and how you can create your own H-Factor system of support.It's practical and deeply human —you'll leave reminded that you were never meant to do this alone. Quote of the week“My humanity is bound up in yours, for we can only be human together.

This episode of the Tactical Living Podcast, hosted by Coach Ashlie Walton and Sergeant Clint Walton, explores what happens when the job that once gave you purpose, structure, belonging, and identity (Amazon Affiliate) is suddenly gone. Whether retirement was planned, forced, medical, or accelerated by burnout — the emotional fallout can feel like a quiet identity collapse. Many officers describe the transition not as relief, but as loss. Loss of routine. Loss of brotherhood. Loss of purpose. Loss of who they believed they were. This episode helps make sense of that experience — and offers a path to rebuild identity that isn't dependent on the uniform.

Lisa Laidlow came to the trail when she became an empty-nester. She had always been an outdoor girl–often along with her father–yet it was only fairly recently that she returned to hiking and discovered the idea of a thru-hike. As a black woman on the trail, she was embraced by hikers, though had a few uncomfortable encounters along the way. Despite these rare occasions, Lisa is a strong advocate of getting people of whatever color into the woods and on trails. You can follow Lisa on various social media platforms; on Facebook at Breathe:AdventuresoftheSoul | Baltimore MD , on Instagram at Lisa Laidlow (@breathe_adventuresofthesoul) , and on her YouTube channel at Breathe:Adventures of The Soul(HighViz) . Also this week, Bobby Campbell, or Sloggy, shared his knowledge of the International Appalachian Trail (IAT). Bobby has done the Maine section of this vast, transcontinental trail and share his experience both here and on his YouTube channel at Hiking the Maine section of the International Appalachian Trail . 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 %.

From encounters with mountain lions to moments of prayer and ceremony in nature, I open up about how this year has become a symbolic journey of release, renewal, and awakening. We explore what it truly means to let go of outdated beliefs, relationships, and versions of ourselves that no longer align with our soul's truth. If you've been feeling big shifts or the call to clean out the corners of your life, this conversation will remind you that you are not alone in your shedding process.I also talk about the power of honest communication, the courage to express what you truly desire, and the importance of slowing down to be fully present, especially as we move into the holiday season. Transformation doesn't always feel comfortable, but it always leads us closer to our most authentic selves. Tune in to reconnect with your intuition, trust the timing of your life, and honor the season of shedding you are in, knowing that what awaits on the other side is a deeper sense of freedom, clarity, and creation.IN THIS EPISODE:(0:00) Welcome to The Danette May Show and today's mountain hike(0:21) Hiking adventures, nature's wisdom, and wild animal encounters(1:47) A powerful mountain lion story and lessons from the wilderness(5:13) Embracing change, shedding old layers, and trusting transformation(10:52) Releasing scarcity and opening your mind to abundance(12:59) The power of honest communication and speaking your truth(15:20) The healing gift of friendship and how to attract your soul tribe(19:49) Reflecting on the holidays, slowing down, and being fully present(23:20) Final thoughts, gratitude, and an invitation to share your journey

I recently spent time hiking the Four Corners (you know, the area in the US where the states of Utah, Arizona, Colorado, and New Mexico form corners). After pushing my body to its limits, I ended up on a massage table where an unexpected mantra changed my perspective. This mantra made me ask: if we have mantras for meditation and our bodies, why not for our creative practice? We, as creatives, spend so much time battling imposter syndrome and the endless feelings of "not enough". Why not use mantras to help us dip into the springwell of our creativity.

Send us a textThis week on Project Weight Loss, we're diving into something that doesn't get nearly enough credit — fun. Not the kind that just happens when everything's perfect, but the kind you can choose, plan for, and use as strategy.In this episode, I talk about why laughter, joy, and connection aren't distractions from your goals — they're essential to reaching them. From a weekend in San Francisco that reminded me how powerful community can be, to research that shows fun lowers stress and builds resilience, we're exploring how to hold both the hard and the happy, the serious and the silly.So tune in and let's talk about what it means to laugh deeply, live intentionally, and see fun as fuel — for your body, your mind, and your Project Weight Loss journey.Because laughter isn't just a feeling — it's a strategy.Quote of the Week:“Live in the sunshine, swim the sea, drink the wild air.”— Ralph Waldo EmersonDisclaimer:The information shared in this podcast is for educational and inspirational purposes only.

Kilimanjaro, hiked the Grand Canyon, rim to rim, multiple times and has swam out to Alcatraz Island and back. Did we mention he's not in his 30s? Or his 40s? Or even his 50s? Brad is a good reminder it's never too late, we are never too old, and yes, my good friends, we still have time to go on some adventures.

In this Friday Rant, I dive into one of my favorite metaphors — life's wave. Some days I'm cruising on a motorboat, other days I'm hanging on to a dinghy — and that's okay. Life and business aren't meant to be smooth or predictable; they're meant to be lived. Too often we get stuck reacting to every dip and crash of the wave instead of learning how to ride — or even better, getting in front of it.I talk about how our expectations of perfection are what create most of our stress, how we've forgotten how to play the game, and why the real win is found in showing up every day and doing the work — even when the ride gets rough. This one's a reminder to stop fighting the current and start surfing it.Key Highlights:- Life's wave metaphor: Why some days you're flying high and others you're paddling for dear life — and why both are normal.- From reaction to preparation: Stop letting life's ups and downs control you; start doing the work now to be ahead of the next wave.- The illusion of perfection: How expecting a flawless life creates more pain than the problems themselves.- Rediscovering play: Why we quit playing the game of life — and how to bring that curiosity and resilience back.- The video game mindset: Remember staying up all night to beat the next level? That's the energy you need for your goals.- Hiking for perspective: Don't stop before the best view — sometimes the reward is one turn away.- Mindset shift: Life isn't happening to you — it's happening for you. The challenge is the game.Life's supposed to be unpredictable. That's what makes it beautiful. So grab the joystick, stop complaining about the color of the game, and play. Stay curious, stay moving, and get yourself in front of the wave — because that's where the fun really starts.If this one hit home, share it with someone who needs a reminder that life isn't something to survive — it's something to ride.

On this episode of The Outdoor Adventure Lifestyle Podcast, host Rick Saez sits down with Tyler Pierce—a lifelong outdoorsman, mountaineer, and bowhunter whose love for adventure began early among the Colorado Rockies. From summiting his first 14er at age twelve and surviving eight knee surgeries to building his own supplement brand, Panglossian, Tyler shares how the outdoors shaped his resilience, his gratitude, and his drive to keep getting after it. Show Notes What Happened Back when I was 16, I applied for this obscure leadership scholarship—$5K to go live in the backcountry for two months with a bunch of strangers and a couple maps. No phone. No GPS. No “check engine” light for your soul. After 58 days navigating the Rockies, came the solo. Three days. No guides. No group. Just a tarp, a sleeping bag, and a goal: find my way 18 miles across unknown terrain using only coordinates and instinct. I had no idea what I was doing—but I also had no way out. There were no excuses. No parents. No bail-out plan. Just me, some snow-packed passes, and the quiet echo of, “figure it out.” That trip gave me something I couldn't have gotten anywhere else. Gratitude. Grit. And the unshakeable belief that I could handle hard things—even if my boots were frozen solid. Principle We don't grow when things are comfortable. We grow when the path is unclear, the gear is minimal, and the only option is to keep going anyway. The world tells us we need the perfect setup, the best equipment, or the ideal timing. But the truth is—those who succeed in the wild (and in business, and in life) are the ones who move forward even when none of those boxes are checked. Transition Too many folks wait. Wait for more money. More time. The right gear. The perfect plan. But what if the reason you feel stuck isn't a lack of resources—it's the belief that you need them in the first place? That belief is what holds most adventurers, creatives, and would-be founders back. That's Why… That's why this week's episode of the Outdoor Adventure Lifestyle Podcast with Tyler Pierce isn't just a story—it's a callout. A challenge. A reminder that the wild doesn't reward perfection. It rewards persistence. Tyler went from food stamps to founder, from Columbine survivor to elite bowhunter, from frozen boots to building arrows from animals he harvested himself. And through it all? He never waited to feel “ready.” He just kept moving. Call to Action If you've been waiting for the “right time” to chase the thing calling your name—stop. Waiting only gets you older and more frustrated. Listen to this episode and remember what it means to move with purpose, even when the path is hard.
