The Power of Pee, Possums & Possibility with Anastasia Allison of Kula Cloth

🏞️ Episode Summary:

Today’s episode is part inspiration, part hilarity, and all heart. Kelly sits down with Anastasia Allison—former park ranger, near-death-experience survivor, and the brilliant mind behind Kula Cloth, the revolutionary (and antimicrobial!) solution for anyone who’s ever squatted to pee in the wild.

But that’s not all…

Anastasia is also one half of The Musical Mountaineers, a backcountry concert duo that hikes into the mountains in formalwear carrying a piano and a violin. You heard that right.

✨ In this episode, you’ll hear:

• The near-death experience that completely changed Anastasia’s path
• Why she went from park ranger to pee cloth inventor
• What the heck a Kula Cloth is—and why it’s a total game-changer for outdoor adventures
• How a “goodbye email” turned into the funniest video Kelly’s ever seen
• The secret society of hikers (with clothes clipped to their packs and a wink of recognition)
• How Kula Cloth created not just cleaner trails, but a real sense of connection and freedom
• Daily dance parties (1,000+ days strong!) and finding joy in simple, present moments

Whether you’re new to the trails or a backcountry queen, this conversation is about more than just pee—it’s about permission. To live creatively, boldly, and with a little more sparkle (and a lot less shame).
