Shelby Stanger is an action sports journalist and founder of REI's Wild Ideas Worth Living and Vitamin Joy Podcast.

Shelby discusses growing up in San Diego and how she got into surfing. Her career path starting as a journalist having one of the coolest first jobs out of college ever as a writer for the Vans Warped Tour to getting a corporate job inside Vans, a VF Company as the Women's Marketing Manager and then Vans International Business & Marketing Manager. Shelby opens up about mental health and wanting to do her own thing in the action sports and adventure world and how she started the Wild Ideas Worth Living Podcast and her belief that a little adventure is life's antidote.

Food for thought:

• There's this confidence that you get from doing outdoor sports that you can't get anywhere else.
• The definition of adventure is pretty vast. Everybody has their own Everest to climb. 
• Eventually, if you get rejected enough times, you start succeeding. 

Enjoy and get rad!
