When Anna started hiking solo, she never expected it would change how she saw herself — and the world. In this episode, we explore how solo hiking became her favorite form of travel, how nature helped her reset mentally and emotionally, and the small steps that helped her build confidence on the trail.
We talk about:
How to choose safe and fulfilling solo hikes
Why time in nature helps us tune back into ourselves
Memorable moments that took her breath away — from Banff to White Sands
The balance between solo and group travel (and how both shape us)
Safety tips every solo hiker should know
Whether you’re a seasoned hiker or just curious about going it alone, this one will leave you inspired to step outside — and tune in.
