#23 - Journey Through the Appalachian Trail (Special Guest - Largo) - The WHY Matters Podcast

In this episode of the Why Matters podcast, hosts Jessica and Will welcome their son Largo, also known as Captain Sueiro, to discuss their extensive six-month hike on the Appalachian Trail. They delve into their experiences, from the reasons for undertaking the hike to the unique dynamics of hiking together as mother and son. The episode touches on schooling on the trail, the challenges and joys of daily vlogging while hiking, the impact of this journey on their perspectives, and dealing with the physical and mental trials along the trail. They also share some fun insights into trail culture and gear preferences, explore the concept of trail names and trail family, and offer reflections on life post-hike and its implications.

Welcome to 'The Why Matters Podcast,' where we explore life lessons, things we often take for granted, and everything in between, gathered from our decade-long full-time travel lifestyle. Each week, we'll delve deep into the 'why' behind the choices we humans make in life and the positive results that stem from a strong sense of purpose.
