About this listen

Fascinating interviews with people who work or play in the great outdoors. In this climate of depressing reports (Starving polar bears! Plastic in the oceans!) I want to turn from the tsunami of negative news and focus on what’s wonderful about our world. My aim is for you to fall in love with this gorgeous world of ours. I want you to notice the infinite storm of beauty that surrounds us. I want you to pause as you scurry out to your car and notice the bird song around you. I want you to step outside and step into wonder. I want you to fall in love with this outside life. If this sounds like you then these are your people and this is your tribe.

  • Healing with Horses
    Nov 20 2025

    Join me at Shining Hope Farms as we learn how horses can help children with developmental delays or physical limitations. Their stories are mini miracles as to how horses can help children (and adults) cope with life and gain skills.

    You'll learn the difference between the terms, "horse therapy, equine therapy and hippotherapy," as well as what breed of horses make the best equine staff.

    To see photos and links, head over to the website, ThisOutsideLife.com/healingwithhorses.

  • Seaweed Foraging
    Jul 10 2023

    The sea is full of free, nutritious food. And you don't have to go scuba diving to get it. I interview Tanya Stiller who leads foraging classes with forageSF based out of San Francisco. We learned about the types of seaweed, how to harvest it, local laws, and the health benefits. Be sure to visit the website to see photos of all the seaweed and demonstrations, plus pictures of books and links to buy them. www.ThisOutsideLife.com/seaweed.
