On this episode I have SoCal based trekker, backpacker, writer, plus size outdoor explorer, diversity & inclusion advocate, hiking guide, and community leader, Anjelica Avella aka Adventures with Anjelica, join me on the show.

Kilimanjaro, unfortunate encounters on the trails, her special connection with Karla Amador & the 52 Hike Challenge, the transition from thru-hiking to settling back to everyday life, empowering women + men of all shapes and sizes to get outside, and the one outdoor experience she would re-live all over again.
