Originally released January 23, 2024.
New Kindred episodes will drop starting in April 2025.
In this week’s episode, we speak with long-haul hiker and adventurer Melanie Vogel.
Melanie is the first woman to walk the Trans Canada Trail, the longest recreational trail in the world. She walked from the Atlantic Ocean across and up to the Arctic Ocean, then down and over to the Pacific Ocean. Nearly 21,000 kilometers. Solo.
Melanie’s story is one of unexpected connections, harrowing experiences, brutal weather, stunning beauty, finding a soul mate, finding oneself, and the slow and emerging awareness of what it is to be human.
We were spellbound by her story of letting go of fear, anxiety, and control that we carry in our daily lives, and emerging as her true self - more than she had ever felt before. And this story holds, to date, my most favorite meet-cute. Cary Grant and Katharine Hepburn have nothing on this one.
Please rate and review us! And share this episode with your people. It’s an incredible story for so many reasons and we’d love to hear what you loved about it.
Lots of Love.
