Wyoming Adventures with Laci Martoglio: Breaking Stereotypes, Embracing Passion, and Finding Community on Women's Guided Packing Trips

In this episode of the Soul Summit Podcast, co-host Kelly Reynolds joins Laci Martoglio from Wyoming. Together, they dive into a profound exploration of breaking stereotypes and challenging the notion that women must set aside their passions after having children.

They explore how pursuing one's dreams sets a powerful example for children, instilling courage and ambition to chase their own aspirations. Engaging in the activities you love not only enriches your own life but also enables you to better invest in and positively impact the lives of others around you. Ultimately, the conversation seeks to challenge the misconception that parenthood necessitates bidding farewell to personal pursuits.

Emphasizing the significance of being present, they advocate for quality over quantity in time spent with loved ones. Laci expresses a sentiment of seizing life's opportunities, urging listeners to embrace their passions wholeheartedly. 

The conversation shifts to social media's impact, emphasizing its role in connecting women in the outdoor community while cautioning against comparison. Laci shares personal anecdotes of forming meaningful friendships through social platforms and highlights its ability to be a useful tool.

Kelly and Laci then explore Laci's pack trips, offering insights into the transformative experiences these mountain excursions provide for women, fostering confidence and connection with nature. They provide details on accessing these guided pack trips and resources for those interested.

Reflecting on her journey, Laci offers advice to her past self, acknowledging struggles with mental health and advocating for self-compassion and physical activity as pathways to healing. She leaves listeners with profound takeaways, encouraging them to pursue their aspirations, embrace failure as a stepping stone to success, and bravely embrace growth, even in the face of fear.
