In this episode, I’m joined by one of my incredible Backpacking Badass clients—Tiffany—whose story is a perfect example of what’s possible when you combine a dream with the right support and structure.

When Tiffany joined the Backpacking Badass Program in 2022, she had never been backpacking before. Fast forward to today—and she’s completed 33 backpacking trips, many of them solo, including a 6-day Grand Canyon adventure.

We talk about:

• What sparked her desire to start backpacking
• How she prepared for her very first trip (on a 2-week timeline!)
• What helped her feel confident enough to go solo just a few trips in
• The fears she still sometimes navigates on trail—and how she moves through them
• Why she calls the Backpacking Badass Program her “cheat code to backpacking”

This episode is packed with relatable insights, beginner wins, and empowering reminders that you don’t have to wait for someone else to join you—you can become a confident, self-sufficient backpacker who makes her own adventures happen.
