Get a Plan and Do the Work with Kristin Retterath

Thanks for joining us in another Her Inspired Journey Podcast! We’re excited to share today's show with you, as we sit down with our guest Kristin Retterath and talk about top ways to save money in the household. 

Kristin is a busy momma, a hunter, gatherer, and entrepreneur. I’ve looked up to Kristin for her tips on saving money in the home and her wholesome lifestyle.

A Woman, Her Bow, and a Muskox

Imagine what it would feel like to draw a true once-in-a-lifetime tag? Maybe you have been lucky enough to do so already, but if you’re like most of us, then you’re still waiting for that stroke of luck that points to you. In episode 72 of the Her Inspired Journey podcast, I am joined by guest Britt Lueck of Alaska. 

 

Not only did Britt get chosen to be one of the 45 people allocated a harvest tag for a Muskox but it was her first year applying for the opportunity! 

 

After the excitement of the DRAWING the tag, Britt went to work getting everything planned out, transportation to Nunivak Island arranged, gear carefully selected, and her bow/ rifle dialed in and ready. 

 

Tune in to the full episode here to listen in as we hear just how this went down, the end result, and what happened after she belly crawled for nearly an hour across the frigid tundra!

It's Not Nothing

Let me forewarn you, this episode is an emotional one. I was lucky enough to cross paths with Lora Young, a hunter, hiker, adventurer, and total badass, a couple of years ago at the Hunt Expo in SLC. Through the process of getting to know Lora, we chatted a lot about hunting stories, our shared passions, and the mountains of New Zealand, a bucket list hunt for me! 

Last summer, Lora found herself circling through a new routine stateside after the dreaded COVID hit and closed down many of our international borders and forcing her to head back home to North Carolina. 

Lora shifted and decided to head out to complete some more sections of the Appalachian Trail near her home. Along the way, Lora soaked up the trail, hiked for weeks, did some soul searching, and found something that would change her life forever. 

What was meant to be a summer of exploration in the great outdoors turned to a cancer diagnosis, chemo, surgery, and life-altering moments that came when she least suspected it. 

Listen in as Lora and I talk about the moments she was diagnosed with breast cancer, how she deals with the process, mentally and physically, and what’s next for her. 

You can also head over to our blog to see our exclusive interview with her and soak up more of her positive and faith-filled outlook.
