Today’s episode of the Take Me Outdoors podcast again focuses on sharing insights into the incredible programming of SHIFT’s Festival. In this episode, you’ll meet TWO amazing leaders who will be part of the SHIFT for the Planet program, which takes place Nov. 1, Day 1 of SHIFT, from 3-5 pm at Snow King Resort. SHIFT for the Planet is a very innovative platform connecting some of the most innovative and impactful examples of outdoor recreation and conservation in the country with funders seeking to catalyze just such organizations. SHIFT for the Planet was designed in partnership with 1% for the Planet, Silicon Couloir, George B. Storer Foundation and Blue Sky Funders Forum. Today, we are sitting down with Jainee Dial, co-founder of Wylder Goods.com, and Gavin Noyes of UtahDineBikeyah.org. Jainee and Gavin are two of the EIGHT presenters participating in this year’s first-annual SHIFT for the Planet event. Download this episode today to learn more about Wyldergoods.com and Utahdinebikeyah.org, two amazing organizations with a mission to protect and serve public lands and wild landscapes. This is an incredible conversation that highlights the perspective of a female-founded Benefit Corporation and a non-profit that exists to amplify the Native voice in the conservation conversation. It’s a perspective you will hear much more of, and the conversation will catalyze at this year’s 2017 SHIFT Festival.

Grief and death are such a taboo subject and Jainee speaks about it so beautifully. Wow, what a powerful chat this was. There were many moments where I had tears in my eyes and my heart was full of emotion. My heart feels full and warm after connecting with Jainee. Her experience of working with grief and the unique way she embraced it, is a powerful offering for all of us. She speaks of her most used practice of writing as a tool for healing, ceremony as what is sacred to you and a necessary way of honoring who and what has passed. The chapters, as Jainee says, of grief, are a way of measuring what how far you have come on a path and that path does not have a goal or a destination. We do not forget those we have lost and wake up one day saying I am done with this, but we do wake up as time goes, and find a deeper acceptance of what is. Here is the link for the B-Rad foundation. The foundation that was created in the loving memory of her partner Brad.

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".

Have you ever had a business idea that you were immediately passionate about and felt on the most guttural level, an incredibly strong need to create? You're about to meet two outdoor founders who have gone through just that and emerged – somewhat - on the other side, successful Kickstarter campaign in hand. What doesn't kill you makes you stronger, my Intrepid Entrepreneurs. Lindsey Elliott and Jainee Dial, the co-founders of Wyldergoods.com, are alive to share this story in podcast form with you today. Lindsey and Jainee personify a modern outdoorswoman. It's an archetype who they're intent to serve with a new formula that's not retail or storytelling – it's both and it doesn't fall under either. Wyldergoods.com is an online marketplace, community and network hub for today's outdoor adventure-ess. Lindsey and Jainee didn't stop with just the concept – they focused on creating a Benefit Corporation (B-Corp), and use their sustainability and give-back mission to screen potential brand partners on their platform. You're about to hear first-hand what it's like to do a Kickstarter campaign. First of all, it's really ((*&%$#) nerve-wracking. As Jainee says: You're putting yourself and your ideas out there, and people judge and vote for your work with their money. But Kickstarter is, above all, a storytelling platform, and Lindsey says it needs to treat it as one to be successful. Let people know the story of your business and how that story is relevant to their lives. In her words, “If you believe in it fully, and you're telling an authentic story, the people who align with that will find you.” You won't want to miss what else Lindsey and Jainee have to say about getting this company started, serving the greater good, and how their love for the outdoors affects their professional lives! Bravery in Business Quote “How can we serve a greater good, outside of a basic consumer model, and bigger than business as usual?” - Lindsey Elliott (click to tweet) The Cliff Notes Focus on products that can meet a diversity of needs Kickstarter is a storytelling platform, and should be treated as such if you want to be successful on it Kickstarter gives potential customers an opportunity to vote with their dollars, showing their true commitment to the idea There is something really nerve-wracking of putting yourself and your work out on kickstarter, with how much people judge you based on the response the dollar number Find time to get away. You have to clear your mind, and find the activity that will do that for you Keep the question “how can we serve the greater good?” in mind all the time As money cycles through hands in the economy, businesses need to drive the economy to be more responsible B-Corp: Benefit corporation. Corporations that are vetted and analyzed for the amount of good that they are doing in the world. Wilder Goods is working toward that certification “If you believe in it fully, and you're telling an authentic story, the people who align with that will find you.” - Lindsey Elliott (click to tweet) Habit for Success Find whatever it is that recharges you, gives you renewed energy, strength and purpose, and make sure that you make time for that activity!
