Ep. 17: Ellen Falterman - Adventure Traveler
This episode's guest is Ellen Falterman, also known as Ellen Magellen. I can’t quite describe who she is in this short intro, but I’ll try, and hopefully I’ll do her some justice. I guess I would call her an expeditionist. Ellen embarks on multi-month expeditions. The most recent of which involved paddling a canoe over 2,000 miles. She is a true adventure traveller, and every experience leads her to dream bigger. In this episode, we talk a lot about her expeditions, we chat about the loss of a family member and how it spurred her to set off on a solo adventure, and we discuss the next big expedition she has in the works. Ellen drops some knowledge bombs throughout this episode as well. Trust me when I say you don’t want to miss out on the 3 D’s.

Ep. 19: Emily Keddie
Emily is an endurance athlete with a proclivity for adrenaline-packed adventures. You can find her free-soloing rock of somewhat questionable quality, running 100-mile races, or taking off on lengthy and extremely remote backpacking trips involving the need for navigational prowess.
Emily is rarely without her furry best friend, Jolly, a golden retriever who loves adventuring just as much as Emily does.
In this episode, we dive into Emily’s adventures, but also discuss our tendency as humans to compare ourselves to others, and managing the negative feelings that come from this.
She's candid, kind, so much fun, and truly inspiring.
