“ Oh, the Places You’ll Go!

You’ll be on your way up!
You’ll be seeing great sights!
You’ll join the high fliers
who soar to high heights.

You’re off to Great Places!
Today is your day!
Your mountain is waiting.
So...get on your way! “
-Dr. Seuss

Most people fear heights, but what compels them to face their fears?
Them is you, even if you haven’t experienced it before.
A 300lb weight would be impossible or injurious to lift to the unpracticed.
By defining your baseline and incrementally pursuing discomfort, you will grow; you will improve. You might even achieve what was once impossible. So to with fear, but what else?

Selena Eon is an avid explorer of the impenetrable Cascade Mountains and a Naturopathic Doctor practicing at Origin Holistic.
There’s a list called the Bulger list which is a list of 100 summits in Washington that are mostly the highest peaks with a lot of prominence. Basically, really tall stuff that’s dramatic. However, not all of the peaks follow that theme. In addition to that, there’s a ton of other lists that inspire people to push themselves or explore the unknown. Selena is an exemplary figure of a modern day adventurer. Without specializing in adventure sports professionally, she has to find her own balance of adventuring in the wilds and working in her community as a Doctor.
In this episode, we discuss her entry into mountaineering, peak bagging, and trail running. I wish I could take you to these places and experience the challenges and rewards of the landscape. At the least, I hope you get to hear it through Selena.
