In this episode, Elizabeth Klein, Executive Director of Wellness Within, and Patti Brown, LMFT and Founder, discuss the many forms of grief, highlighting that it's not limited to losing a loved one but extends to various types of loss. They explore society's limited understanding of grief and the need for spaces to express and honor it. Challenging a formulaic approach, they emphasize that recognizing and expressing grief is key to living fully. They also share personal experiences, offering insights on how rituals like storytelling and art can help navigate the grieving process and foster a sense of aliveness. Fear by Kahlil Gibran It is said that before entering the sea a river trembles with fear. She looks back at the path she has traveled, from the peaks of the mountains, the long winding road crossing forests and villages. And in front of her, she sees an ocean so vast, that to enter there seems nothing more than to disappear forever. But there is no other way. The river can not go back. Nobody can go back. To go back is impossible in existence. The river needs to take the risk of entering the ocean because only then will fear disappear, because that's where the river will know it's not about disappearing into the ocean, but of becoming the ocean.

Derrick spends 3 days with Jody Smith Guide Service hunting a blacktail deer deep in the logging country of Western Oregon just 4 miles from the Pacific Ocean. Jody's family moved to the area as German immigrants in the 1840s via the National Land Claim and he was born and raised hunting and loving firearms with his father and grandfather. Jody said he hosts a lot of clients who are trying to complete their hunting slams and still need a blacktail deer or a Roosevelt elk. He's a hunting or fishing guide year round based on the seasons and specializes in Roosevelt elk, blacktail deer, and Rio turkey as well as salmon, sturgeon and smallmouth fishing on the Umpqua River. Derrick and Jody talk about how times have changed just since the 1970s and how 5th grade Jody bought a rifle from an older fellow on the school bus for $25 and then had his principal hang onto it for him until he could pick it up for his school bus ride home. Towards the end and in true Oregon fashion, Derrick and Jody get rained on as Jody tells heartfelt and emotional stories about learning gun safety from his grandfather as well as his most memorable client who was dying from cancer and was blessed with a successful Roosevelt elk in the most perfect of circumstances. Derrick lived in western Oregon for 2.5 years and never had the chance to harvest a good representation of a blacktail buck. This trip fulfilled that dream and Jody and Derrick share the adventure. . . . . .On The Horizon episodes brought to you by:Horizon FirearmsTexas Ammunitioniota OutdoorsStiller22 Creedmoor Join us on InstagramJoin us on FacebookVideo version available on Horizon Firearm's YouTube Channel On The Horizon podcast: Founder of Horizon Firearms Derrick Ratliff gathers guests to share and discuss outdoor industry expertise and memorable hunting adventures.

An accomplished angler, Miller is well-versed in a variety of techniques including Euro Nymphing and Swinging Flies (more specifically - swinging flies for steelhead - a notably cold experience). A true student of the game, Russell is an excellent fly-fishing resource for anglers of any ilk. Russ, Rick, and Ivan talk about what they're looking forward to this winter on the water in Colorado. The gentlemen talk about strategies, editing your water, the merits of Euro Nymphing in the winter, winter dry fly fishing, building the ideal winter day of fishing, gear selection, fly choice, rigging, seasonality, and much more.
