The Shorts — Parking Lot Players

Parking Lot Players

[soundcloud url=”https://api.soundcloud.com/tracks/104310193″ params=”auto_play=false&hide_related=true&show_comments=false&show_user=false&show_reposts=false&visual=true” width=”300″ height=”300″ iframe=”true” /]Next time you’re out at a popular trailhead, take 30 minutes, crack a beer and take a look around the parking lot. You’ll start to see that there are a few distinct types of people you can meet in the parking lot. Each has their merits that can help you achieve a spectacular day. And each has its drawback too. It’s up to you to decide which player you want to be in the parking lot.

Stepping Stones

At the end of that list is medical doctor. And the director of the Soft Power Health Clinic in Uganda. She is a career shape shifter who followed her passions and ended up in an unexpected place. How do you know when it’s time to step out of the current and follow an alternative path? Trevor Clark traveled to Uganda to tell Jessie’s story.

The Shorts — 5 Types of B.O.

5 Types of B.O.

[soundcloud url=”https://api.soundcloud.com/tracks/104308983″ params=”auto_play=false&hide_related=true&show_comments=false&show_user=false&show_reposts=false&visual=true” width=”300″ height=”300″ iframe=”true” /]”If there are three types of fun, there should be five types of B.O.” It happens to all of us. You’re out camping for a few days, maybe more. Free from the hygienic shackles of society, you sniff and think, “I’m good.” Brendan Leonard’s been there. He’ll go multiple days without a shower, because one isn’t readily available, or he doesn’t want to find the soap buried in his car. It’s gotten bad. Really bad. Brendan breaks down the B.O. levels. What’s your rank?
