Exploring Resilience: Mindfulness, Connection, and Adventure Through RV Living.

Welcome to another episode of the Outdoor Adventure Series. Carrie-Ann Tkaczyk is our guest today.

Together, they embarked on a transformative journey across the western United States, living in their trailer and deeply connecting with nature.
