Description

Sydney Williams (she/her/hers) is an author, adventurer and the CEO and founder of Hiking My Feelings. From their website, Hiking My Feelings is ‘on a mission to improve community health by creating opportunities for people to experience the healing power of nature.’ She is a bundle of amazing energy. In fact, we had so much fun that I texted her and asked her to be friends afterwards. And now we are. Cool stuff.

In this episode, we discuss:

• Sydney’s skydiving career
  
• Being diagnosed with Diabetes and how this impacted her life
  
• Why she stopped drinking after her diagnosis and how it helped her find clarity in her own thoughts
  
• Why the Trans-Catalina Trail is magical
  
• What hiking means to Sydney
  
• How we cannot truly heal but simply stopping drinking, we need to do the internal work to heal ourselves
