| EP 010 - Living The Hunt with Sarah Laughter | 20 Mar 2019 | 00:53:50 | |
Have you ever walked into an archery shop in need of new gear and been intimidated by what to choose? I know I have and for every one piece of gear you need there are so many options- it can easily make your head spin. In today’s episode I sit down with Sarah Laughter at the Western Hunt Expo in Salt Lake City to talk about choosing arrows, finding what works for you, growing up hunting, the Total Archery Challenge, and our favorite SITKA women’s pieces. Sarah is a long time hunter and still spends Fall in the mountains hunting along side her family. From hunting big game in Utah, to exotics in Texas, this girl get's it done. Sarah is immersed in the hunting world, works for Easton Archery HQ in Utah, and understands how choosing arrows can be intimidating, especially for a new archers. Growing up with only hand-me-downs, Sarah and I can definitely relate - always fighting too big, too baggy, bunched up, and never comfortable. SITKA listened to the needs and feedback of women in the field, and stepped up to tackle a solid, functional, and kick ass women’s camo line. From waterfowl to big game SITKA has us covered. We touch on several topics in this episode and I hope you find nuggets of helpful information, and confidence to make the beat decisions for your next hunt.

| From Archery Camp To Her First Archery Bull - Building Confidence with Paisley Wortman | 26 Oct 2022 | 01:04:11 | |
If you enjoy elk hunting then we have another guest you’ll love. In this episode of the Soul Summit Podcast, I sit down with a rad young woman from Prince of Wales island who now calls Oregon home. After meeting Paisley at my women’s Archery Camp early in 2022, I quickly became a fan of her hard working spirit, willingness to invest in herself, and the discipline she leans into to reach her goals! Not only do we get to hear Paisley tell the story behind her very first archery elk that happened just months after attending our Archery Camps, but we also get to hear how she has rebuilt confidence in herself. Seeing Paisley and other women from this year's camps form new friendships, make plans, and stay connected after this summer's events is such a treat for me and keeps me inspired to host more life changing women’s events! Tune in and soak up the positive vibes from Paisley Wortman!

| Using the Outdoors to Build Your Confidence | 18 Nov 2022 | 00:56:02 | |
I remember back when I would never hike, hunt, or camp solo. Now, I crave it! And you can too! Getting out and exploring by yourself, especially as a female, can be intimidating! Over the years I’ve talked to hundreds of women who would agree. In fact, one of the #1 things I hear is that ladies aren’t confident enough to hike, run, walk, camp, hunt, etc. by themselves! To each of us, building confidence looks different, but here are a few tips that helped give me the boost I needed to do things solo. Small - short or close to home adventures. Plan - go when you have plenty of daylight, good weather, know your route. Especially important to know where you’re going if you will be in areas without service. Prepare - take a pack with essentials, communication device, water, and sidearm (or some kind of pepper spray). Awareness - pay attention to where you are, be present, and don’t let yourself get distracted. Also, limit using earbuds or headphones so that you can stay in tune with your surroundings. Communicate - always let SOMEONE know where you are heading and when you’ll be back (and stick to that plan). Trust - listen to your instincts and trust your gut without giving into fear. Companion - take your favorite 4 legged friend or invite someone to come along. Maybe starting with a friend or two will be your gateway into more time outdoors!

| EP 011 - Pursue the Wild with Kristy Titus | 25 Mar 2019 | 01:06:24 | |
Do you ever look at a woman and think, “how the heck do you do it all?” That’s exactly what I wonder when I chat with my friend Kristy. This is truly a woman who is doing it all, and living a big life!
On this episode we decide to roll with the punches and chase a few rabbit holes, which is always easy to do when we’re together. Kristy opens up about her life growing up, and the content in this podcast is so rich we’re going to have to plan another episode to follow up.
As women it can be hard to navigate the kitchen, keep a healthy perspective on food, and maintain balance with our bodies, and we all have struggles in this area. Sometimes hearing from other women, and listening to what they’ve gone through, and overcome can help us create and accomplish successes of our own.
Kristy opens up about her struggle with weight growing up, and how the experiences she had in her younger years has helped her develop a way of life that keeps her striving for her best life.
We also dig into our favorite nutritional supplements, give tips for finding health even in later years, and outline the Wilderness Athlete 28 Day Challenge.
We talk about her first love for the outdoors, building a bonding relationship and gaining confidence with her mules, and growing up in a family that took conservation seriously.

| EP 012 - Battle The Burnout | 01 Apr 2019 | 01:11:48 | |
Today’s podcast is going to be about shifting gears and perspectives as I sit down in our backyard with my partner, and better half Steven Dahn. This show is a little more off the cuff, and carries some great food for thought. I wanted to cover a few topics that are very important and commonly over looked or over thought. Steven has a long history of working with woman of all ages and has a very unique male perspective of some of the struggles we face as women. We cover: •How women tend to spread our “bandwidth” a bit thin and leave ourselves as last on the list. •Advice for the fellas on how to “listen to your lady” instead of trying to fix all her problems. •The trouble of not asking for help and the power that comes along with being a little vulnerable by asking for help. •Having too much skin in the game and forgetting about our to do list and checking in with what really fills our cup. With the sun shining and a cool spring breeze, Steven and I talk about all the unwritten and often unseen responsibilities of busy women and how we need to focus on taking over the world with some help rather than trying to do it alone. | |||

In this episode of the Soul Summit podcast, host Courtney Prete joins Shanelle Riley, a dynamic wildlife photographer based in Montana. Shanelle's journey begins with stories of her humble beginnings, capturing the essence of Courtney's archery camps and embarking on solo adventures. These experiences ignited the flame of her passion for photography. Throughout the episode, a central theme of their conversation revolves around Shanelle's mantra: "Embrace Discomfort for Growth." She vividly describes moments of uncertainty and discomfort during her solo expeditions, moments that ultimately became pivotal for her personal and professional development. Shanelle eloquently explains how stepping outside of one's comfort zone is not just a challenge but an essential catalyst for growth, both as an artist and as an individual. Shanelle shines a light on the profound impact of mentorship in her journey. She speaks fondly of her own mentors, individuals whose guidance and wisdom helped navigate the complexities of wildlife photography. These mentors not only provided technical knowledge but also imparted invaluable lessons on patience, observation, and the art of storytelling through imagery. As the conversation deepens, Shanelle dives into the technical aspects of photography, emphasizing the importance of understanding camera settings and the nuances of natural light. Her passion for the craft is palpable as she shares tips and tricks, encouraging listeners to embark on their own photographic adventures with newfound confidence. One of the highlights of the episode is Shanelle's discussion of her photography retreats. These immersive experiences, set against the breathtaking backdrop of Montana's wilderness, are designed to not only teach photography skills but also to foster a deeper connection with nature. Shanelle's retreats are more than just workshops; they are transformative experiences where participants are encouraged to explore their creativity, overcome challenges, and forge lasting friendships. As the episode comes to an end, Shanelle leaves us with a powerful message: 'Every moment is an opportunity to capture the essence of life.'
