Hailing from Golden, Colorado, Julieana shares her journey from childhood adventures in the mountains to her passion for skiing and its culture. Growing up in Colorado, it was easy for Julieana to fall in love with the outdoors at a young age. Not to mention, her family introduced her to the slopes at just three years old. After returning home from the East Coast post-college, she jumped back into the lifestyle of skiing, eventually becoming an instructor. There was something about the pure joy and excitement that skiing brought to people of all ages and skill levels. Inspired by this, Julieana challenged the notion that only elite athletes belong in ski films. The concept for "The Gnardashians" was born—a film celebrating the stoke, courage, and camaraderie found in everyday skiers. Julieana shares the evolution of the film's concept, from its origins as a girls' ski film to its representation of skiers of all abilities. With a focus on showcasing the thrill of trying something new, "The Gnardashians" aims to inspire viewers to embrace the joy of skiing, regardless of skill level.If you've ever wondered why every little thing's worth celebrating, or want a behind the scenes look at what it takes to make a ski film, then this one's for you!

Allie bought a fly rod and hit the road with her friend. A couple months later while sitting at a brewery in Bozeman they convinced themselves to start the account Ladies in Wadies. What began as a lighthearted space to share silly moments evolved into an inclusive community celebrating impromptu fishing trips, 9 am beers, and mustache selfies.

One day, she took her practice outdoors, and the experience changed everything. Erica's newfound appreciation for the outdoors led her to explore hiking. With each bend in the trail, she discovered new wonders and a growing sense of curiosity. Her adventurous spirit eventually led her on a backpacking journey in Alaska, an adventure that evolved into a search and rescue mission. Yet, even this experience failed to deter her passion for the outdoors. Driven by her insatiable curiosity, Erica delved into outdoor education, eventually discovering her love for fly fishing. Not only does she pursue this passion wholeheartedly, but she also shares it with others, particularly women, to ignite their own curiosity for the great outdoors. If you've ever wondered how leaning into your curiosity can lead to boundless adventures, then this one's for you! Life in Motion is brought to you by Actual Outdoors.

In this episode, we chat with Ron Lahout, a third-generation owner of Lahout's Ski Shop - an iconic store and America's oldest ski shop. The story of Lahout's is a journey through time and a testament to the enduring passion for the outdoors, skiing, and community. The legacy began in 1920 when Lahout's started as a modest general store. However, it was in 1935 that Joe Lahout, Ron's father, took the reins of the family business. Joe's deep love for skiing, the great outdoors, and, most importantly, his commitment to the local community became the driving forces behind the shop's success. By the 1980s, Ron, along with his brothers, took the helm of Lahout's, not only to manage the shop, but also to preserve their father's legacy. As the Lahout family expanded their shop's presence across New Hampshire, they remained rooted in their humble beginnings, while staying connected with their community and the world of outdoor enthusiasts. Whether you're an outdoor history junkie, an aspiring entrepreneur, or simply intrigued by tales of enduring family legacies, this episode's for you.

In this episode we interview Phebe Lahout, who grew up in America’s oldest ski shop and now oversees marketing at Seirus. During high school when Phebe wasn’t running around Lahout’s Ski Shop in New Hampshire, she could be found downhill skiing. Rather than following the family footsteps after graduating, she attended The University of San Diego. She was outside of her comfort zone, but was up for the challenge. Soon after college she found an opportunity with Seirus, which creates high quality gear for outdoor enthusiasts to enjoy cold weather. Being a brand that Lahout’s Ski Shop carries, there was familiarity, but that wasn't the only thing that attracted her. Seirus focuses their efforts on making the outdoors more accessible by partnering with nonprofits that provide opportunities for kids that might otherwise not have the chance - all while amplifying their voice.

In this episode we interview Laura Rodriguez (she/her) and Mary Traylor (they/she) of Justice Outside. Growing up in LA, Mary always loved the outdoor access it had to offer. They also enjoyed experiences at an immersive outdoor camp, which influenced their future. Prior to becoming the Director of Programs at Justice Outside, Mary was an educator. This opened their eyes to the lack of outdoor access kids of color had - even though it was in their own backyard. Laura grew up in rural California on a dairy farm, where she spent her childhood running around and exploring the outdoors. Even after all that, it wasn't until 29 that she started camping and truly took on outdoor recreational activities. Like Mary, Laura also noticed that people that looked like her weren't participating in these same adventures. For her it was about the duality of what is real about representation and lack of access to the many ways to participate in the outdoors. Now at Justice Outside, they're helping advance racial justice and equity in the outdoor and environmental movement.

As a Girl Scout she enjoyed camping trips and learning survival tactics, but enjoyed being a leader while making a difference in her community the most. Then there was history. After finding an old box of family photos showing her Chinese American heritage, all she wanted was to learn more. This inspired her to become a history teacher and show her students that history doesn't have to happen to them, rather they can make history for themselves. Over the years Katherine's love for both history and the outdoors led her to transitioning away from the classroom and into the parks. Now as California's Deputy Secretary for Access, Katherine is helping expand equitable outdoor access to public lands, museums and historic spaces within the state.

As she got closer she saw they were down there because the children had disabilities. Kate realized she had taken for granted being able to proudly watch her own kids from the stands. Why couldn't those parents experience the same feeling? After rallying volunteers she kicked off their first program - Buddy Ball. It allowed parents to get off of the field and watch their kids from the stands. From there they grew to arts, social and even outdoor programs.

Always camping and exploring, his love for being outside continued to grow. He also had a love for Africa - with Nat Geo being to blame. Justin decided to start a nonprofit to support the children of Africa while combating Aids/HIV. Shortly after he 'came out', and while navigating his new journey came to a realization - there was an inherent lack of diversity present in the outdoor space for the LGBT+ community. This discovery inspired him to start LGBT+ Outdoors as a safe haven for others to share their love for the outdoors.

In this episode we interview Nicole Hamel who is a hiker, explorer and traveling nurse. Growing up in Massachusetts, getting outside to ski and snowboard on the White Mountains was a norm. She even hiked Mount Washington at only 6 years old. As Nicole got older, she lost interest in the outdoors - at least until college. A group of friends doing the New Hampshire 48 invited her on a hike. Uncomfortable, out of shape and slow - they didn't invite Nicole on another hike. Little did she know this would spark something within her. She soon found herself hiking regularly, building her strength and always in search of the next trail. Nicole couldn't get enough of how she felt both mentally and physically after a hike. The best part? Being a traveling nurse let her explore new cities, hike new trails and meet new people. The flexibility also allowed her to take months off at a time, which was perfect for her dream of hiking the Appalachian Trail; which she completed in 2022.

There was just something about getting his hands dirty. During summer break in college he decided to be a camp counselor and the experience transformed his lens on the power that nature has on youth. One day while chasing waterfalls (and jumping in them) Alex noticed there weren't any kids around that looked like him. He knew that needed to change, but saved that thought for another date. Later he joined Teach For America, where his memory of the waterfall was sparked. Alex needed to find a way to send kids of color to summer camps like he experienced. So what did he do?

The city changed his perspective of the outdoors, until one day he decided to walk the length of Africa. While training, he reconnected with nature, much as he did on the island with his brother. But what inspired him to take on such a feat? Mario had aspirations of becoming a track and field olympian and was competing at the highest level. That was until lack of funding and injuries put things on pause. He fell back on a 9 to 5, but as an olympian, that wasn't going to cut it. Mario missed the challenges of competition. He decided to rekindle his drive by exploring places others would only see in National Geographic - to entrench himself in their culture and stories while sharing them with the world. Mario spent 2 years trekking across Africa, an immersive experience that was more about the people than it was about the adventure. Now Mario searches for new places to travel to soak up moments and share with others.

In this episode we interview Berkeley Bryant of Blue Sky Funders Forum. Growing up in Texas, Berkeley spent a lot of time running around outside. In middle school she stumbled upon Sea Camp, which took her love for the outdoors to the next level. With her mind set on being a marine biologist, things took a turn when Berkeley realized she didn't want to study nature - she wanted to conserve it. That led her to earn a degree in environmental education and eventually became the social media manager at North Carolina State's College of Natural Resources. While Berkeley didn't see it at the time, this was the perfect opportunity to connect with others in the field. One recommended looking at environmental education through a different lens and suggested Blue Sky Funders Forum. It was an obvious fit for her love of the outdoors and educational background. Now as the program coordinator she's helping Blue Sky Funders Forum fulfill their mission of inspiring philanthropy that supports thriving communities by advancing equitable opportunities for meaningful outdoor experiences and connections to nature.

After commenting that Caulin had the best job ever working on the water all day, they'd proceed to leave with their trash scattered everywhere. How could someone that calls the beach the greatest place ever just leave it to ruin when vacation was over? Rather than being stuck looking at it all day, he decided to do something about it - start a conversation online. His documentation of daily trash cleanups snowballed into similar cleanups by others.

In this episode we chat with Travis Overstreet, the Roanoke Programs Director at Beyond Boundaries. Born and raised in the beautiful landscapes of western Virginia, Travis developed a deep appreciation for nature from an early age. After high school, he decided to serve his country in the Marine Corps, where he gained an understanding and respect for the diverse lifestyles that shape America. Following his time in the Marines, Travis moved to Richmond, Virginia, immersing himself in veteran programs and finding fulfillment in giving back to his fellow service members. However, Travis wanted to provide even more support and sought to create a positive outlet for veterans through outdoor adventures. Recognizing the transformative power of nature in his own life, Travis invited fellow veterans to join him in activities such as rock climbing, paddling, and hiking, offering them an escape from the confines of traditional social scenes.

Sonya and Necota discovered their love for camping and overlanding during a difficult time in their marriage. Despite a less-than-ideal first camping experience, they realized that they could control their own happiness, and their outdoor adventures became a way to connect with each other and the natural world. Inspired by their new passion for the outdoors and a desire to promote inclusivity in outdoor spaces, they started Staples InTents. They wanted to show people of color that they not only belong in the outdoors but can thrive in it. They also recognized the need for education and community in helping others feel more confident and curious about outdoor adventure. This led to the creation of The Gathering, a welcoming and comfortable space where everyone can learn and grow. Sonya and Necota are not only inspiring others to get outside and connect with nature, but they're also building a supportive community where everyone can feel welcome.

Christina grew up in Colorado but surprisingly didn't enjoy the outdoors as a kid, even though her parents put her on skis before she could walk. It wasn't until college that she truly reconnected with nature, using hiking as a way to reset from the stresses of classes. It became more than just an escape when she decided to live in a cabin in the mountains by herself. Around this time Christina also noticed the two extremes for women in the outdoors. Either they were hitting fourteeners or they weren't. It seemed like a weird stigma to put on women in the outdoors. Why can't you have a full face of makeup out on the trail or not wear any at all? To change that, she started Girls Outdoors Club to bring that feminine energy to the outdoors while motivating and building community.

In this episode we chat with Nicole Llinas, the Executive Director of Current Problems. As a kid in Georgia, Nicole created miniature museums in her yard, charging neighbors and family to see her eclectic collections, ranging from dried snail shells to rocks and mud creations. Her move to Florida at the age of 10 only increased her love for the world's natural beauty, including freshwater springs and coastal beaches. During her time at the Alachua Conservation Trust, Nicole experienced something that stuck with her. One day the leader of their group, a botanist, suddenly stopped the truck they were in, stepped out, and sat down in a ditch to admire a single flower by the roadside. This seemingly insignificant moment left a mark on her, inspiring her to appreciate the small details in nature as a part of the greater work of conservation. Nicole realized that she wanted to be the kind of leader who could pause amidst the chaos to cherish the beauty of nature, no matter how tiny, in her journey to protect it. Now she's leading with action as the Executive Director of Current Problems. They're on a mission to address the alarming issue of marine debris originating from freshwater systems, with studies showing that a staggering 80% of marine debris can be traced back to these sources. Since 1993 they've removed over 1,068,102 pounds of waste, making a big impact.

In this episode we chat with Lucretia and Khalid, a dynamic duo with a shared dream of building a sustainable homestead from the ground up, all on a budget. Lucretia's journey into the world of herbal medicine, sparked by unforeseen events, led her on a path to embracing the healing power of nature. Khalid, on the other hand, leaned into art, initially grounded in writing and poetry. A chance meeting in Washington, D.C., with an inspiring artist from the Ivory Coast reshaped his perspective on visual art, and expanded his artistic journey. Serendipity played its part when a mutual friend introduced Lucretia and Khalid. With their shared passion for the natural world, driven by Lucretia's deep love for it and Khalid's romantic notions, it was a perfect match. Soon after they decided to leave the city behind and purchase a piece of land in Virginia, marking the beginning of a remarkable journey. The land they chose was a blank canvas, but brimming with untapped potential. They began clearing the land, setting the stage for their homestead. Their resourcefulness and determination shined through as they transformed a school bus into their very own home, a living testament to their creativity and tenacity. But their vision didn't stop there. The school bus soon turned into a greenhouse, to go along with rainwater collection and an expanding homestead. Their journey and passion even caught the attention of the show 'Homestead Rescue'. With the support of their families and friends, Lucretia and Khalid are now well on their way to realizing their dream of creating a solar and rain-powered homestead.

In this episode we chat with Nick Pearson of Sober Outdoors, a community-based organization dedicated to connecting sober and sober-curious individuals with the healing properties of nature, the backcountry, and all things outdoors. Growing up in Colorado, Nick quickly fell in love with the outdoors and had a dream of working in the outdoor industry. His dream came true as he climbed the ladder for various outdoor brands, while creating relationships across the country. As Nick's presence in the outdoor industry continued to grow, so did the parties, but one day he decided enough was enough. He dedicated his life to recovery, sobriety and healthy living, but he didn't give up on the outdoors industry. Rather, Nick used his adventures as a way to ground him and stay focused on sobriety. Now, with Sober Outdoors, he's helping others do the same. They're bridging the gap between recovery and the healing power of outdoor adventures. But Sober Outdoors is more than an organization; it's a community that offers invaluable resources, local outdoor events, and a place where lasting friendships are nurtured. If you've ever wondered why the great outdoors is more than just a breath of fresh air, or are sober-curious, then this one's for you! Life in Motion is brought to you by Actual Outdoors.

Growing up in a small Virginia town, James's love for the outdoors started in the woods, often accompanied by his trusty feline companion, Smokey. As he grew older, his passion for the outdoors remained steadfast, but it all changed while working at a dealership. A routine task of driving a customer's van to the service center opened up James' eyes to a new way to adventure. The fully converted van was decked out with a bed and living amenities. James thought to himself, "Oh the adventures I could take in this." He took his old basketball team's Astro Van, $500 and scrap wood from his parents remodeling project and created his own van that was ready for any adventure. But James's adventures are not solely about breathtaking landscapes; they are also a voyage into history. His travels serve as a gateway to discovering the often untold stories of African American heritage, elevating the impact of his expeditions. With each trip, he documents his experiences on YouTube, inviting others to join his mission of exploration and discovery. Through his platform, he seeks to inspire individuals to break free from their comfort zones, embrace vanlife, and engage with the world around them on a deeper level.

In this episode we chat with Sara and Morgan, the dynamic duo behind Wild & Free Mamas. Sara's love for the outdoors began in Pennsylvania, where she spent her days exploring the woods and enjoying summers at camp. On the other hand, Morgan, growing up in Georgia, discovered her passion for nature during high school. After becoming mothers, they both experienced a transformative moment when they gave themselves permission to embark on separate adventures out west. These journeys allowed them to step away from the demands of motherhood, reconnect with nature, and deepen their connection with God. Most importantly, it provided them with the opportunity to recharge and gain a fresh perspective when returning to their families. Inspired by their own experiences, Sara and Morgan realized that other moms could benefit from similar adventures and soul-nourishing moments. Thus, Wild & Free Mamas was born. What started as small meetups has evolved into exciting weekend adventures that impact moms from all walks of life. By drawing moms out of their comfort zones and into the realm of adventure, Wild & Free Mamas creates a space for deep connection and courage, fostering lasting growth in their identities and relationships with others and with God. Because after all, every mama needs periodic time to recharge, connect, and have fun.

In this episode we chat with Benjamin Morris, the Development Director at Outdoor Recreation Alliance Trails. Benjamin's love for spending time in nature was ingrained from an early age, with the great lakes and rivers of Michigan serving as his playground. Saving to buy his first kayak, he explored picturesque rivers and canals. Witnessing the revitalization of the Detroit River also instilled in him an appreciation for the importance of preserving and restoring natural spaces. During college, despite being a track runner, Benjamin often found himself drawn to camping and hiking, recognizing the therapeutic and transformative power of nature. Grad school allowed him to explore the Driftless area, study abroad in Germany, and learn from the wisdom of the Ojibwe People. After moving to Detroit, he experienced firsthand the impact of limited outdoor access. Then the opportunity to relocate to La Crosse, Wisconsin, arose, leading Benjamin to discover Outdoor Recreation Alliance (ORA). Never expecting to work for such an organization, he now serves as the Development Director, channeling his nonprofit leadership experience and passion for community building to propel ORA's incredible mission forward. They're building happy, healthy, and resilient communities by providing access to equitable and sustainable outdoor recreation experiences.

She was experiencing no sleep and mood swings, but the doctors said everything was fine. Kelsey decided enough was enough and went to the ER for a CT scan. The results showed her brain was bleeding which required emergency brain surgery. Kelsey's road to recovery wasn't an easy one, but she persevered.

In this episode we interview Tommy Corey who's an outdoor photographer, backpacker and storyteller. Growing up in California, Tommy had a natural love for the outdoors. At 12 his dad gave him a camera, but didn't know the impact it would have on his life. His photography evolved from casual outdoor photos with his friends to meaningful humanitarian projects. In his 20's Tommy felt that his creativity wasn't what it used to be and decided he needed to switch things up. How? By thru-hiking the 2,650 Pacific Crest Trail. It was exactly what he needed. Tommy even created a new project during the adventure, dubbed 'Hiker Trash Vogue' that featured fellow hikers he met along the way.

In fact, he started an online business as a kid back in the Yahoo days. Unfortunately it didn't take off, but that didn't kill his entrepreneurial spirit. Years later, while sitting by a campfire he thought there was a better way to enjoy coffee - without all the equipment. That's when the idea for Wildland Coffee - coffee in a tea bag came to life. Sure there were other similar products out there, but they either didn't taste very good or were positioned as an alternative to your home coffee pot. Zach aligned himself with the outdoor community - showing them just how easy it was to stay caffeinated during each adventure. Taking it a step further he created his business on the foundation of sustainable practices by eliminating waste.

He was immediately hooked and fell in love with the freestyle aspect. Next thing Nick knew, he was traveling all over the world competing professionally. Every minute he wasn't on the river, Nick immersed himself in the culture of the country he was visiting. By the time he and his wife were ready to have kids they decided they were going to take them along for the ride. Fast forward to now, where he's still competing, while also showing people the importance of sharing adventures together on The Great Family Adventure. If you've ever wondered why you should take every opportunity to explore with your kids, or what it's like to be a professional kayaker, then this one's for you!

For episode 100 John Holdmeier of Actual Outdoors takes over to interview Jeremy Lux - the founder of Illumine Collect and host of the Life in Motion Podcast. Jeremy grew up in a one stoplight town in Virginia. With not much to do, he fell in love with BMX and the friendships that came with it. Soon he was working at Camp Woodward, the largest action sports camp, where he met individuals from all over the world - including his wife. This opened up the opportunity to travel and see the world differently. Jeremy realized these experiences only came from his passion for BMX and he wanted to find a way to share it with others, no matter what their passion was. In 2017 he started Illumine Collect, a brand that makes adventure-inspiring apparel to build outdoor communities that give back. Each month they partner with nonprofits that are sharing outdoor experiences while making it more accessible, sustainable and welcoming.

In this episode we interview Barney 'Scout' Mann who is an author, adventurer and outdoor advocate. Even though his parents weren't the outdoors type, it didn't take long for Barney to fall in love with being in nature. At age 13 his Boy Scout Troop went on a 50 mile backpacking trip in the Sierra Nevada. Barney's pack weighed half as much as he did and it poured rain the entire time. You'd think that alone would discourage him from ever stepping on a trail again - but it was the exact opposite. In fact at age 63 he conquered the Continental Divide Trail, adding to his long list of accomplishments. Now he helps others find their love for the outdoors while also protecting the trails that he loves so much.

Not only because it was fun, but because it was also budget friendly.

This made it an easy choice for any family trip - even with a budget for a 5 star hotel. Now Teresa's using her passion to help other women get outside as the Eastern Missouri chapter leader at Girl Camper. She helps inspire others by offering local tips, tricks and events to build a women focused camping community.

In this episode we interview Joe Stone who is the Director of Mission at Teton Adaptive Sports. Growing up in Minneapolis, Joe's love for the outdoors came from camping with his family in Northern Minnesota. However, when he was back home he explored the concrete jungle on roller blades. This passion drove him for years, but in his 20's he moved to Montana. There he found something new - paragliding. For Joe there was no better feeling than flying. Unfortunately soon after, a tragic accident left him paralyzed. Months later, Joe remembered the sense of curiosity that led him there in the first place. He shifted his mindset and decided not to let his limitations define him. From there his adventures only got better, and his smile only got bigger. Now as the Director of Mission at Teton Adaptive Sports he's helping hundreds of others reignite their passions by showing them what is possible.

Soon those afternoon sessions turned into weekend road trips. What he loved most about those adventures was the friendships and community that came with it. Next thing Luke knew, he was traveling across Europe and even made it to Camp Woodward in the summer of 2012, giving him the opportunity to make friends across the world. Unfortunately that all came to a halt after a couple of knee injuries. The doctor suggested that Luke take a step back from BMX and try road cycling instead. Turns out he traded one addiction for another and was surprised how similar the communities were. Now he's creating new memories on a different pair of wheels.

In this episode we interview Brandon 'Horsepower' Weis. Growing up in Ohio, Brandon didn't see much of the outdoors - at least not in the sense that he does now. That all changed when Ohio State offered him a stipend to perform a transformational experience. He was immediately interested in a month-long backpacking trip in the High Sierras - but not because it was outdoors. He wanted to do it for the challenge. After his trip he was hooked and began planning longer thru hikes to finish before he headed to grad school. Only one problem. There was a global shutdown soon after those plans were made. Rather than ditching the idea - he decided to pack all of the hikes into one year. In 2021 he hiked the Appalachian Trail, Pacific Crest Trail, Continental Divide Trail, and Arizona Trail. The best part? He's adding more to his list. If you've ever wondered about the mental and physical challenges that come along with so many hikes in so little time, then this one's for you!

By completing adventure challenges to raise awareness for things like leadership education in Uganda and retreats for sexual assault survivors.

As a former City Councilman in Long Beach Mike heard it all, but one day he got the call - 'Mike there's these pesky skateboarders riding in front of my house and I don't know what to do!'. Given the man's reaction he was expecting vandalism or maybe even a fight. Mike paid them a visit and none of that was true. The kids were simply riding their skateboards in the neighborhood with their friends. This began the process to open the first public skatepark in Long Beach, it was uncharted territory, but he got it done. Since that day he's helped open 8 other skateparks and has seen violent crimes and drug related incidents drop significantly along the way. In 2011 he founded Action Sports Kids Foundation to provide auxiliary services to at-risk youth and empower them through community involvement. Skateboarding allows ASK to meet the kids where they are - the skatepark. Their program allows kids to be themselves, encouraging them to be their best, while also giving back to their community. ASK leads by example and is even used as a model across the country by the Tony Hawk Foundation. If you've ever wondered how powerful something like a skateboard can be then this one's for you!

It wasn't too long ago that Lindsey found herself on the first season of the hit show 'Survivor'. She loved the challenges and adventure that came with it, but it wasn't all roses. Unfortunately she was cast in a bad light, not because she was bad, but because of the way the producers portrayed her. The last thing Lindsey was going to do was let the negativity get the best of her, which is when she turned to mountain biking. As her love for the sport grew she was introduced to many aspects of it - from competing to securing sponsorships. Along the way she noticed there weren't many ladies on the trail. She had to change that. Now at Ladies AllRide she's providing women with the resources to get on the trail and test the waters. For her it's more than just getting them on a bike, it's about sharing her story while showing that anything is possible - no matter what you've been through.
