Imagine having to part ways with your dream truck and bus project, and feeling trapped in a job you resent, all while struggling with burnout. That was my reality not so long ago. As we celebrate the three-year anniversary of the Trail Connection podcast, I take a heartfelt walk down memory lane, recounting the trials, tribulations, and triumphs that have shaped my journey. Opening up about my darkest moments, the challenges I faced, and the toll it all took on my mental health, I also share how I found the courage to seek help and reignite my passion for the outdoors. Tune in for an episode filled with reflection, learning, growth, and finding peace in chaos.
