The podcast I don’t shut up about
You know those things in your life that you don’t shut up about because it brought so much joy, usefulness, help etc? Well this is my thing. Diaries of the Wild Ones helps fulfill my longing for a larger life and adventure in moments when I can’t be out adventuring. It also helps direct and inspire the adventures I do get to take while also helping to cultivate the lifestyle I want to have.
It’s wildly entertaining while also bringing so much perspective and knowledge on just how big and amazing our world is. It highlights just how capable us humans are and can be. I’ve laughed, learned and am pushing for a more wild lifestyle because I have been touched by the incredible stories Aaron has been able to share.
