WELCOME

Two decades into a high pressure tech career, I woke up one morning, sat down at my desk and burst into tears. I was burned out, stressed out, and suddenly aware that I had completely lost myself. The wild and free child I was growing up was buried and forgotten, and the truth of it was a raw wound. I had to shake things up. This working, paying bills and dying protocol wasn't it. I set my out of office reply, kissed my family goodbye and flew to Montana to disappear into the wilderness and learn survival skills from cast members of the popular show Alone. I came back with the spark of life back inside me, and wanted more. I'm now following my passion of embarking on wilderness adventures, learning survival and ancestral living skills and figuring out the basics of self-sufficient living on my small homestead in Idaho. Come along for the ride! I'd love to learn from you too!
