O baby do we have a special guest for you today! Skylar always dreamed of running across Canada and never let the doubters win. The only thing more inspirational than him accomplishing this goal is the awareness raised for mental health as well as a sizeable charitable donation. After experiencing his own battles with mental health as well as losing multiple friends to suicide, Skylar had an unstoppable "Why" behind him that pushed him through when’s times got tough along the way. Come hear about cougar encounters, wolf sightings, RV troubles, insane elevations and the variable Canadian weather not mention all the amazing Canadians he met along the way.
We discuss a ton about the run itself, mental health, future goals and a whole bunch more. Skylar is a super inspirational person and this conversation could not have come at a more perfect time for myself. How open and confident we were able to talk about our own mental health journeys and the tools we have found along the way was so much more needed than I realized.
