Sometimes people ask me how my life came to involve so much time adventuring outside and doing work that I really love.

The answer is multi-faceted:

Some helpful factors were outside my control. I have a lot of privilege as a white woman and a safety net coming from a middle class family. I’m able-bodied and healthy. I also had a lot of luck in finding a husband who shares my love of the outdoors and can carry many of our financial burdens.

And some of it I had a big part in creating. I had a clear vision for what I wanted. I made choices that supported my desires even when it meant difficult conversations, uncertainty, embarrassment, or failure. Most of all, I gave myself space to be a beginner. To be the weakest, most scared, or least knowledgeable person in the room.

But with consistency, I grew out of the beginner phase and built a strong foundation for my life out of things I truly like and enjoy.

Life design is often many of these things…luck, opportunity, clarity, intention, a crap ton of trial & error…It is focusing on your strengths, finding solutions to fair or unfair barriers, and not being afraid to speak up for what you want.

and and I started Outwild to bring together any folks interested in designing their life to be more energizing. People who want to get outside more (however that looks!) and start making choices that bring them more joy.

If this sounds like you (or someone you know), then you should check out the two awesome experiences we have coming up this summer. Tickets go on sale in one week on Monday, May 16th at 9am PST and more info is at the link in my bio ♥️

What a year it’s been! In the first half I was the strongest and most confident I’ve ever been in my climbing. I sent some of my hardest boulders, my first 5.13, and got the big wall clinic of my life while spending four days on the Nose on El Cap. The most gratifying part however was that I was feeling far less fear and had endless stoke! And then in June we found out I was pregnant and to be honest, the first half of my pregnancy was rough. I had terrible morning sickness and what was likely perinatal depression (not to mention all the shame and anxiety that comes with that). But my friends and family took care of me while Alex was in Europe for the summer. They checked in regularly and let me voice my doubts and fears without judgement. Alex showed me endless patience, love, and support from afar and even more so when he got home. Then I got to experience the immense joy of Outwild events in person again and working alongside Courtney and Jeremy. By fall I was feeling mostly myself again. Feeling the baby start to kick helped me process and get excited for the changes to come. We went to Italy. We renewed our vows with all our friends and family. And now as the year closes, things are really slowing down. My exercise is mostly quiet walks and my attention is turning towards giving birth, motherhood, and the transition that lies ahead. Looking back I can’t help but notice the extreme difference in my activities, energy, and being from the opening of the year to its closing. But on this quiet New Year’s Eve (after many hours of guided reflection led by 😂 😉) I’m seeing the beautiful Yin and Yang of it. How what might seem opposite and contrary is actually complimentary. I have experienced all sides of my body physically and my mind mentally over the course of just 365 days and I’m even stronger for it.

So here’s to 2022 and the beautiful, opposite, and contrary balance that surely awaits.

Happy one year wedding anniversary, Alex! We've gotten into the habit of having a massive, exciting, and challenging life change every year….so this year we thought we’d continue the tradition with a BABY. Haha, oh baby! A little girl expected in February :)

I have a lot to say about pregnancy…that I’ll hold onto for another day.

But for now I want to say, I’m really freaking excited that there will be more of you in this world, Alex. I hope she gets your unwavering calm, your psych for life, your never-ending motivation, and your ridiculous sense of humor. I hope she has your disarming smile and tremendous ability to consume cheerios. I hope she has your big eyes and your forever bed head. (Okay… maybe just the eyes).

I think becoming a parent is perhaps the scariest and most exciting journey I’ve ever embarked on and let me just say I’m so glad you’re right here by my side for it. I couldn’t do it without you…. in more ways than one.

Meet Renan & Taylor. They are storytellers, filmmakers, photo journalists, explorers, and passionate defenders of this planet. They are a fascinating, hardworking duo who have made names for themselves both independently & together. Their work has been featured by National Geographic and celebrated around the world.

While my husband knows them quite well (and is currently working on a project with Renan so he’ll be at our house 😂) I have only met them briefly and I am so excited to spend some time with them tomorrow night to hear their crazy story :) I’ll be interviewing them to discuss how they’ve designed their lives in a way that embodies their values, the hardships and joys of working and adventuring with your partner, and the art of great storytelling.

This is part of Outwild’s monthly online event series where we get to hear from athletes, coaches, wellness experts, adventurers, and more! You can get the zoom link for $15 at the link in my bio or on the Outwild website. The event is Wed (TOMORROW) at 5:30pm PST. 60 min with a Q&A to follow. Outwild members join for free! Recording available after purchase.

I’m pinching myself looking at these photos :) Last week we wrapped Outwild for the Entrepreneur - our first in person .co event in over 1.5 years. I remembered how much I LOVE facilitating groups and workshops in person. I remembered how happy it makes me to see people make friends and feel empowered. I remembered the exhaustion that comes on day 3 after 4-5 days of running around nonstop making sure everything is where it needs to be 😂😅 and I got to see my cofounders and in their truest element killing it! Anyway, it was so much fun and such a successful retreat. Thank you to everyone who helped in some way, to all the amazing participants, for the insane food, and for the great photos!!

Oh and thank you for letting us stay at your beautiful property!!

Creating .co has led me, , and to spend a lot of time digging into what truly brings people joy when they finally give themselves a break from work. We study it. We experiment on it. We host events. We ask for feedback. And we iterate.

We have learned that there are those of us who are ready to rough it in the wilderness, those of us who want a beach in Cabo, and those of us who want a very special in-between…adventure and live music with a drink in hand. Community and a private cabin. Farm-to-table meals and bonfire s’mores ;)

Yep. Adult summer camp.

Well our research has paid off and this summer we’re finally hosting our very own adult summer camp, ROAM Wild. It is taking place next month, August 15th-19th, in Montana! It is shaping up to be a pretty spectacular event.

Take a look at all the awesome things to expect:

🔹Outdoor activity options like hiking in Glacier National Park and rock climbing with
🔹Amazing, fresh, locally-sourced meals from
🔹Dinners by local chefs like
🔹Wine tasting by
🔹Yoga with , polar plunges, and fishing
🔹Photography 101 class with
🔹Workshops by me and
🔹A keynote by
🔹An incredible property and private cabin by

We’ve done all the hard work ;) now you just have to show up.

As an outdoor-focused transition coach, I often work with clients who have set the goal to make adventure a bigger part of their life. In those conversations, lots of different mental, emotional or physical barriers come up. But one in particular has always stood out to me: fear of hiking alone when we don’t know who else is out on the trails with us. I think this is especially a common fear for women but obviously is not exclusive to that group. I consider myself lucky in that I’ve never had a bad trail experience or been given reason to fear another hiker. But I know that is not the case for everyone, and depending on where you live it may be more of less of an issue.

That’s why I was really excited when told me about Nicole Snell () and her work at . She’s leading self-defense classes specifically for those of us in the outdoors!

If you’re outside a lot, I really urge you to attend her workshop through .co THIS WEDNESDAY at 5:30pm PST. You never know when you’re going to be glad you know how to protect yourself and while most likely (and hopefully) you will never have to use those skills, it might feel really good just to know them. Plus I bet you can use them in cities too!

It’s been an interesting time to be an entrepreneur. A true bonafide emotional rollercoaster. BUT, the feeling of things beginning to gain speed again is making it all worth it. I even read an interesting article the other day that 2021 is actually a great time to start a business. There’s less competition, more access to consumers, and you’ve probably spent the last year and a half daydreaming and planning what your company look like…
