WARNING: Listener discretion is advised.

This episode contains the harrowing details of  a traumatic grizzly bear attack and mentions a suicide attempt. 

When the wilderness speaks, Jeremy Evans listens—but nothing could have prepared him for the day nature's ferocity answered back. In a candid and gripping conversation, Jeremy, a seasoned outdoorsman turned author, recounts the visceral terror of a bear attack during a remote sheep hunting trip in Alberta's mountains.

Jeremy describes the violent clash that pitted him against a grizzly's rage. Beyond the physical ordeal, he delves into the psychological aftermath, laying bare the complexities of mental health and the arduous journey of recovery.

His story is not just a chilling survival saga—it's a powerful testament to the resilience of the human spirit, the healing power of humor, and the strength found in family bonds.

His narrative is punctuated by moments of unexpected levity, like the echo of "Baby Shark" that propelled him forward, and leads into his purpose-driven initiatives, like the Grizzly Dude Fund.

Jeremy transforms his pain into advocacy, inspiring us all to rise from adversity. His journey is not merely about enduring the wild—it's about transforming trauma into a beacon of hope for others.
