Welcome to the Hiking My Feelings Virtual Campfire. This 20-day event is a fundraiser for the Hiking My Feelings Wilderness Wellness Center, the American Diabetes Association, and RAINN - the nation's largest anti-sexual violence organization.   

Each night from May 26-June 14, 2020 we are going live at 5pm PT to bring inspiration, hope, and healing to the community in these uncertain times.

Our guests tonight are:  

MELANIE + KALEO WASSMAN  When was the last time you tried something new for the first time? When we are kids, this is encouraged, but it can be scary to put ourselves out there as we get older. If you lack the confidence and self-trust to take risks, that doesn't have to be your story forever. If you ask Kaleo (vocals/guitar for @pepperlive), there's "nothing like a brand new day" to start putting one foot in front of the other toward your goals.   Our campfire chat tonight with Kaleo and Melanie Wassman was centered around exactly that - every day is a new opportunity. How do you find balance? How do you keep moving forward when it's hard? We are stoked to share that Kaleo has recorded a Hiking My Feelings-exclusive version of "Brand New Day" and "The Invite" that we will be sending out to all of our donors after the event. Whenever you need to tap into this inspirational energy, you'll have two songs to give you a boost. At the 36-minute mark, Kaleo shares the inspiration for the song.   Melanie is also the founder of Spell Botanicals, an all-natural skincare line that is on a mission to empower women from the inside out. For our VIP All Access pass holders, they're receiving some of the GLOW facial oil - check out http://spellbotanicals.com   

TYLER CURLEY - COMMUNITY MARKETING AT SALOMON Here's a pro-tip: wearing your hiking boots at your standing desk is not the same as breaking them in. In the chapter we shared tonight, I earned my first blister an hour into our six-day trek on the #TransCatalinaTrail. Luckily, Salomon isn't going to let you make the same mistakes I did, and Tyler Curley shared a bit about shoe selection, how to avoid blisters, and showcased some of their favorite products to help us hit the trail safely and in style.   

AMANDA DULONG Finally, meet #HikingMyFeelingsFamily member, Amanda DuLong. We met Amanda at our tour stop in Fort Worth last year. She kept hiking after we left and has cultivated a cool community of women who like hiking and have the same taste in music. We love seeing photos of her and the gals out for a hike - this is what this movement is all about! Amanda is also very passionate about educating women about implant-related illnesses, so if you have breast implants, we highly recommend watching this!
