In this episode, we sit down with William Skipworth, a journalist who set out to hike the entire 2,000-mile Appalachian Trail and did it. William talks about what inspired him to take on the journey, the highs and lows of life on the trail, and the lessons that come from months spent in the wilderness. From unexpected wildlife encounters to the deep bonds formed with fellow hikers, his story is equal parts adventure and reflection. Tune in for an honest, down-to-earth look at what it takes to walk from Georgia to Maine and what you learn about yourself along the way.
