Julia "Rocket" Sheehan: AZT Thru Hiker | The Hiker Podcast S2E21

41 minutes

This week I'm excited to bring back Julia "Rocket" Sheehan, after completing her thru hike of the Arizona Trail.

Julia is a veteran thru-hiker who still feels like she has no idea what she is doing in life and trail. As a military veteran, nurse and outdoor adventure lover Julia has learned to take life one step at a time. After spending years taking care of others, Julie set out on a journey and trajectory that would have her life head down a path she had never dreamed of. Now she juggles half her life in the real world and half as hiker trash. Julia hikes in hopes of spreading love and information about how healing the outdoors can be!
