Ever feel the urge to unplug and escape into the wilderness? Imagine sitting by a campfire, completely disconnected from the rush of modern life, and feeling a sense of peace emanating from your very core. This week, we're thrilled to have John Boe, the bushcraft expert from Wildway Bushcraft, joining us. John passionately shares his wisdom about embracing the wild and the manifold benefits it offers - physically, emotionally, and mentally. 

John helps us distinguish between bushcraft and survival, highlighting the skills and knowledge needed to truly relish the natural world. We talk about the courage it takes to be still and alone with our thoughts, and why it's crucial to live life on our own terms rather than chasing societal expectations. Whether you're nestled in the heart of the city or living on the edge of a forest, John shares insightful tips on how you can get started with bushcraft, opening a gateway to a life more attuned with nature.

As we wrap up, we delve into the importance of interacting and protecting our environment. We share actionable steps to conserve natural beauty, from volunteering for local conservation initiatives to simple walks in nature. We also take a moment to express our deep gratitude to you, our amazing listeners. We hope you find this episode as enlightening as we did, and that it inspires you to step outside, appreciate the beauty of the wild, and discover the joy of bushcraft.
