You Are Capable of More (Than You Acknowledge to Yourself): Rebecca Sperry, Socked In Hikes (Part 1)
This week I’m doing something unprecedented in our short Guides Gone Wild history, I’m presenting a part one, and I’m going to keep you on the edge of your seats until Monday to hear the rest of the story.
My guest for the next two episodes is Rebecca Sperry, otherwise known as Socked In, from the phenomenal blog and Instagram account Socked In Hikes.
As you’ll hear in this conversation, Rebecca has gone through A LOT in the last 5 years. I’d originally set my sights on her for the podcast because of the inspiring, raw, truth-telling way she has been attacking a recent health crisis during COVID. But as I was editing our audio to prepare the episode, I realized that Rebecca’s ‘story before the story’ was just as compelling and inspiring.
Hearing Rebecca’s first-hand account of the mindset shifts and setbacks and cleared hurdles that led to her becoming a prolific solo hiker, the ways she has allowed her definition of achievement to evolve, is an amazing story in and of itself. And if you meet Rebecca this way, and then spend a few days letting some of the stuff she shares knock around in your brain, it’s going to make the stories she shares in Part 2 all that much more amazing and inspiring.
Listen in, let it marinate in your brain a bit, and be sure to come back on Monday for the rest of the story....
