Cristina Schooler (@rootedmethod) is an entrepreneur, outdoorswoman, and adventure junky.

Cristina is the owner of a small business called Rooted Method, a service providing transformative outdoor retreats to national parks like Zion, Big Bend and Desolation Wilderness in California while also operating locally here in Austin, Texas.

Led by Cristina’s fiery passion, we discuss being honest with our attachments, thriving in a childlike manner, the challenges of starting a business, and her time soloing through the Alaskan backcountry. Cristina also has some refreshing advice when it comes to sleep and using the outdoors to cultivate calmness and contentedness. I'm super excited to share this conversation you and want to thank Cristina for giving her time to come indoors and chat with us. Hiker trash warning! :)

May we allow our hearts and minds to be filled by Cristina's endless supply of energy and wisdom! Without further adieu, please welcome to the podcast, the sage hiker, Cristina Schooler!

Love,David
