Ep. 1023: Playing Soccer on Kilimanjaro - Revisited - Laura Youngson

You're probably familiar with John's name and work but do you know about his journey from not being able to get a single company to publish his books to now being on countless coffee tables and walls around the world? Pursuing your dreams is not always a cakewalk. In fact, sometimes it's a downright nightmare but every once in a while, if you're lucky, your hard work lands in the hands of the Pope himself. Listen to the episode to learn what that's about! I hope you enjoy this honest conversation from one of America's most iconic photographers.  www.johnfielder.com His new black and white book: https://www.johnfielder.com/product/colorado-black-on-white-available-september-7/ Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/adventure-sports-podcast/donations Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brands Privacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

At some point in the pursuit of our adventure sports, we will have an injury. As we get older those injuries and the slowing of our bodies can compile to limit our abilities drastically. Who are you as a person if you couldn't do your adventure sport(s) anymore? Are you willing to think about how much of your identity is wrapped in what you can achieve athletically?  Today's episode discusses the challenges and beauty that limitations can bring if we're willing to remain positive and look for opportunities to discover new passions. I hope you enjoy Bart's story about reshaping his identity and discovering new adventure sports as his body "directs" him.  B2buildingscience.com Crookedarrow28.com Poetry Book: stories he told.

After college, Joe Jimenez thru-hiked the Appalachian Trail.  When he returned home he found himself not really looking forward to the daily responsibilities of “normal life.”  This led Joe and his wife to some radical changes in their lives.  First, they decided to move into an RV.  Second, they budgeted to save as much money as possible.  Third, they have built a life that allows them the freedom to do the jobs they want as well as have the money they need to stay healthy, keep active, and ultimately chase adventure.  Now Joe is extremely passionate about sharing his ideas and life/travel-hacking principles.  I hope you learn something from today’s episode!

Free Soloing is definitely stupid in a lot of ways. We don't condone the sport. However, Austin Howell struck me as particularly calculated and contemplative in his approach to soloing. Listen in on what goes on in the mind of a free soloist and Austin's thoughts on why the danger is not his forte nor his focus.   DreamingOfGnar.com https://www.instagram.com/freesoloist/ https://vimeo.com/freesoloist Www.TheFreeSoloist.com Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/adventure-sports-podcast/donations Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brands Privacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy
