โIโm wanting to start hiking soon, but Iโm scared to go alone, any advice?โ
โIโm trying to pump myself up for my first solo backpacking trip. However, Iโm worried. Everyone Iโve told says itโs a bad idea, bad people will hurt me, itโs dangerous, I could fall off a cliff, etc.โ
โIโve been doing day hikes for a while now but have never been camping. My husband doesnโt really want me to because heโs scared something will happen to me but I really feel like I have to go!โ
Hey hiker, do you want to ditch fear and feel a little more like a badass?
But maybe you’re not quite sure exactly what steps you need to take or skills you need to know to get there.
Whether you have no hiking experience at all or have some day hikes under your belt, you can do this, and I can help!
I’m a Certified Professional Coach who fell in love with backpacking after walking over 1,300 miles of the Appalachian Trail and now help others experience the wonder of living and traveling in the great outdoors.
I genuinely believe the more savvy hikers there are out on the trails, the safer and better off weโll all be.
Dream big, hike far, Mallory
