60. How Does Technology Impact Our Experience Outdoors? with Garrett Stevens
In episode 60 of the Outdoor Minimalist podcast, we are talking about the impact technology has had on outdoor recreation and how we experience outdoor adventures. There are both positives and negatives to technology in the outdoor industry, and just like technology, the industry is always growing and changing. To help me dive into the outdoor impacts of technology, I welcomed Garrett Stevens to the show. Garrett has taken a winding path, from a career in marketing and advertising to pursuing a passion for the high and wild places of the world as a mountain guide. He grew up in North Carolina, and discovered a love for the mountains while in college. He moved to Montana to live and play in the incredible landscapes there, and has traveled and worked throughout the US, Europe, and South America. Currently working as a marketer for a software company, Garrett enjoys backpacking, hiking, hunting, skiing, and all things outdoors.

59. 2022 Election Resources for Environmentally Minded Voters
Bill Nye the Science Guy said it best, “the main thing you can do about climate change isn’t recycling– it’s voting.” That’s why in episode 59 of the Outdoor Minimalist podcast, I am going to discuss a few of the ways you can use your voice to vote for the environment. Now, I want to be clear, since politics can often be polarizing, I am not going to tell you who to vote for or who I support. I am simply going to overview a few of the standout environmental issues to pay attention to and how to identify candidates in your state that support important environmental policies and ideas.

55. What Does Good Stewardship Marketing Look Like? with Becky Marcelliano
In episode 55 of the Outdoor Minimalist podcast, we talk about stewardship marketing, public land access for varying user groups, and how we can use our strengths to make a collective impact for good. Any type of branding and brand marketing is always super interesting to me, and I was really excited when the idea for this episode was brought to my attention by Becky Marcelliano. Becky is the Senior Access and Stewardship Marketing Manager for OnX. Her love of the outdoors started in the hills of New Jersey, but bigger mountains drew her to the Mountain West, where she’s spent the last two decades doing a multitude of things, including teaching environmental education, guiding wilderness travel trips, and managing marketing teams for various outdoor brands in the industry. She’s driven by human connection, our wild places, and purpose-driven initiatives. She’s a Jane-of-all-trades adventurer, master of none. Find her hiking, mountain biking, backpacking, off-roading, or throwing a fly rod on any given day.

54. Why We Need Nature with Kenny Peavy
In episode 54 of the Outdoor Minimalist podcast, we get to discuss the topic of outdoor education and the importance of spending time outdoors not only for our physical health but for our mental health. We are diving into some of the ways that a lack of access to outdoor play can especially impact young children, how access to nature stunts learning, and how a fear of nature has grown into a more common learned behavior. To help us dive into this topic, I had the pleasure of hosting Kenny Peavy. Kenny is a science teacher and outdoor educator originally from the USA. He's been living in Southeast Asia for the last 20+ years exploring the rainforests of Malaysia, Indonesia & Thailand. He's ridden a bamboo bicycle from Thailand to Bali to raise awareness for sustainability and he's published an illustrated children's book entitled The Box People with the message to get out of the boxes of our daily lives and get outside to connect with Nature!
