Mountain Ready Year-Round: Fitness, Wild Game Cooking & Finding Purpose Through Pain27 Feb 202601:00:12

#103 - In this episode of the Reckoning Podcast, I'm sharing a real-life check-in on balancing motherhood, work, fitness, and staying mountain ready year-round.

We're talking:

• How I stay consistent with home workouts and strength training
• Why being "mountain ready" isn't about perfection
• Simple fitness routines for hunting season
• Our go-to wild game Philly cheesesteak recipe (elk, venison, or steak) A High-protein, family-friendly meals from field to table

Plus, I answer your most common questions about balancing kids, hunting, and work — and how to stay motivated when you're exhausted.

And then… I share a powerful submission from Hunter Rasmussen (1_legged_hunter), whose story of losing his leg in a hunting accident and finding purpose through faith will stop you in your tracks.

This episode is about resilience.
About preparation.
About faith.
About becoming stronger in body and spirit — no matter what season you're in.

57 Days in Canada: Elk, Moose, Bears & Whitetail with Trev Trifaux of Compass Grid Labradors11 Feb 202601:19:46

 #102: In this episode of Reckoning, Britt sits down with returning guest Trev Trifaux of Compass Grid Labradors for an incredible recap of his unforgettable fall hunting season in Canada.

Over 57 days in the field, Trev filled 8 tags across multiple species—including elk, moose, black bear, cinnamon bear, whitetail deer, and more—using both archery and rifle.

Trev shares the full story behind:

  • Bowhunting black bears at 17 yards

  • Taking a moose at 72 yards with his bow

  • Harvesting a cinnamon bear at 80 yards

  • Tagging his first whitetail

  • Pursuing elk and deer in remote terrain

  • Balancing long hunts, travel, and recovery

  • Preparing mentally and physically for extended seasons

  • Learning long-distance shooting later in life

  • Staying aligned with personal values in the hunting and outdoor industry

We also dive into how last year's experiences shaped this season's success, what techniques he changed, and how discipline, patience, and preparation helped him go farther and hunt longer than ever before.

This honest, real conversation also touches on brand alignment, content creation, and keeping the focus where it belongs—on ethical hunting, field care, and respect for the animal.

Plus, Britt and Trev catch up, reflect on past seasons, and share behind-the-scenes stories from life in the field.

If you love real hunting stories, bowhunting, western and Canadian big game adventures, and conversations about integrity in the outdoor space, this episode is for you.

Listener Q&A + Summer Real Talk: Outdoors, Beauty, Gardening & Behind the Podcast Scenes12 Jun 202501:08:12

#93: Summer's here—and we're catching up like friends around the fire. In this solo episode of Reckoning, I'm diving into listener grab-bag questions and sharing real-life updates from behind the scenes of running a podcast, growing a brand, and trying not to give up when the work gets hard.

We talk about the beauty products I swear by for outdoor adventures, the chaos and magic of gardening season, and how I'm finding balance between being present, being driven, and being okay with messy progress.

What we get into:
– Summer skincare + low-maintenance beauty that holds up outdoors
– Garden wins and fails (and what it's teaching me about growth)
– Podcasting behind the scenes: burnout, business, and bouncing back
– Listener questions on wellness, fitness programs, hunting, gear, mindset, and more
– Staying grounded and growing when things feel slow

For every woman who's building something wild, real, and worth it.

Britt's Utah Archery Bison Hunt ft. Nicole Martinez, Rendell Newman & Cody Long28 Nov 202402:21:18

The long awaited Utah Archery Bison Hunt episode. To share the story of Britt's unsusscessful Bison hunt. This one is a long episode but I decided to do this episode a little differently and bring on multiple friends: Nicole Martinez and Rendell Newman + my husband, Cody. Because hunting can sometimes be so much more than just the person who has the tag. "The Hunt" is often about the group, others who are willing to come spend their time to support you, put miles on their tires, boots and eyes. It's the wild encounters we each have and then coming back to camp to share them around the fire. 

I had a hell of a support system, especially my husband and sons: Kooper and Rivers, who grinded it out with me, rooted for me and gave me encouragement and those little/big hugs when I needed them most. My dad making me a the coolest freezer on a trailer ready to go at any moment and brining supplies. Then the hunting buddies that came along for this wild ride, to help me cover ground and locate Bison. I thought it would be cool to bring on their perspectives and experiences. Without their relentlessness I would have missed out on a few of the opportunities that came my way. 

Get ready to hear about some close encounters, bear hunts, making a stalk 8 yds away from bulls, adventures in getting our truck stuck, me getting to solo hunt for 3 days and lessons learned about Archery Bison Hunting. So without further ado. . . Here is the story of my Utah Archery Bison Hunt.
