It’s Always a Good Time to Take Some Action
Serena Ryan, Summits in Solidarity
How is my fear of not knowing what to say, or my guilt or my despair, and depression about these tough issues - how is that serving the BIPOC community? It's not, that's actually all about me.
Share Your Passions, Hold Your Breath, and Watch Them Go
Charlotte & Georgia Clews
So when I had kids, I totally had this vision of taking them out in the stroller on the Pacific Crest Trail, you know, the rugged stroller. That’s not realistic, by the way.
Discover Your Backyard Backcountry
Lindsey Lapointe, Seacoast Hikes
You need to know if there’s going to be a bathroom there, if it’s stroller friendly, if you can bring your dog, if there’s a playground, if there’s a picnic table, how long it’s going to be... Because otherwise it’s too scary for you to take two babies there by yourself.
Connect With Your Mind, Body, and Spirit (and Get Your Goat!)
Ashley Flowers, Ashley Flowers Yoga
Connection with another human is scary. Staring into the eyes of a little baby goat, on the other hand, is just not scary… they’re so funny and ridiculous.
Create (and Celebrate) the 'Aha!' Moments
Alice Bean Andrenyak, Alice's Awesome Adventures
If I can have two ‘aha!’ moments from the people that I’ve had out that day, that fuels me for the next day.
Ditch the Excuses and Do Yourself a (Rock) Solid
Anyssa Lucena, Genuine Climbing
It’s so cliched, but it’s really true. It’s about your connection with the rock, and how your body talks to the rock, and how it talks back to you. All you need is to have a soul in order to do that, you don’t need anything more than that.
Fuel Your Fun
Hillary Pride, Eats with Pride
I usually try to do some greens [in my smoothie] because I go through phases with salads… I’m not like, ‘I can’t wait to go home and eat kale’ in January. I don’t usually feel that way.
Live a 'No Drop' Life
Cail Casserly, Brewer, Rider and Poet
If we’re out there enjoying a thing, I try to be conscious of, who am I not seeing? If this was hard for me, who’s it harder for? And I hope that that thought continues to foster other things, in terms of my activism, my work and my passions.
Pack a Pencil and Have a 'Plan B' (and Other Smart Travel Strategies)
Tiff Soukup, VagabondWay
If we had ever let the fear of what could happen stop us, then we would have missed out on a lot of things.
If You Love It, Someone Else Will Too
Jana Olenio, SUP Yo Adventures
That was the point at which all of my passions came together, my travel experience and my passion for yoga and nature… and I was so thrilled, because I was sharing what I loved and was passionate about with other people.
Becoming a DoryWoman
Nicolle Littrell, DoryWoman Rowing
It was this fantastic feeling of, like, this is my boat. And it was a feeling of freedom… this is what I’m looking for, that freedom.
Become the Person You're Interested in Being
Jackie Lastinger, The Girls Trip Adventure Co.
I’m just trying to inspire other women to get out there with other women and not be scared, and just get out of their comfort zones. And go do this cool shit you know you can do.
