In today’s episode of Backpacker Radio presented by The Trek, brought to you by Topo Athletic, we are joined by Julia Sheehan, known on the path, as Rocket. Julia is through a hiker, former Trek Vlogger, Social Media Sensation, Nurse, and now an author published. Julia details how impulsive decision -making takes her to the wonderful world that is through the intention, inspired by the favorite Viking of all favorite walks. Rocket also shares how health problems finally forced her outside the trail, the unpleasant response she has received from some in the sphere of social networks in the light of «quitting smoking» and then publishing content that is not hole. Julia also shares the process in the publication of her new book, Shikking is the easy part, a memory of her walk in the AT.
We wrap the program with some news about the 2026 edition of Trail’s correspondents, the story of a hiker who was found alive in a popular Pectop PCT after getting lost in the field for weeks, how much weight people loses during a walk (and why it is generally not a good long -term weight loss strategy), Chaunce and I have an impossible coincidence impossible during today’s coast and the album of the album.
