Part 2:

The Route To Healing- Supporting Each Other & Ourselves

In the second installment of this two-part series, Laura McGladrey shares a range of practical tools for recognizing and managing stress injuries. Drawing from her extensive experience in mental health and wilderness medicine, McGladrey explores both personal strategies and broader systemic approaches that can be implemented within outdoor communities and workplaces. Her insights emphasize resilience, peer support, and the importance of creating a culture where stress injury awareness is normalized and actively addressed.
