#30 - Open Minds, Wild Lives | Karla Pound [Karla_inthewild]
This episode we are back on location at the Brisbane Mount Coot-tha Botanical Gardens to meet Karla Pound, a survivalist, bowhunter, adventure guide and all round amazing woman.We spoke about why saying YES can help build you a life that you love, full of adventure and new experiences. What it was like being alone in the wilderness for over a month, and how being open minded lead to becoming a guide for national geographic!“A master in the art of living draws no sharp distinction between his work and his play, his labour and his leisure, his mind and his body, his education and his reaction. He hardly knows which is which. He simply pursues his vision of excellence through whatever he is doing and leaves others to determine if he is working or playing. To himself he always seems to be doing both. Enough for him that he does it well.”- L.P JacksFollow Karla HERE:https://www.instagram.com/karla_inthewild/https://www.instagram.com/collectivepursuit__NEW Intermediate Organic Growers Guide:https://www.theshedorganics.com.au/product-page/ultimate-intermediate-guide-to-growing-organicFull Q&A series:https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL8JLrNZ6--BptTzH5xrU4cU1RWk4HMQQFCheck out the CHILLI Side by Side series:https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL8JLrNZ6--BqQJ9423StG_qo_VDANQwkD#1 Blend Fertiliser:https://www.theshedorganics.com.au/product-page/1-blend-complete-organic-fertiliser-mixFREE Beginners Organic Growers Guide:https://www.theshedorganics.com.au/product-page/ultimate-beginner-s-guide-to-growing-organic __________________________________________________________Follow The Shed Organics HERE!Website: https://www.theshedorganics.com.auFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/theshedorganicsInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/theshedorganicsYoutube: https://www.youtube.com/@TheShedOrganicsTiktok: https://www.tiktok.com/@theshedorganicsTwitter/X: https://twitter.com/theshedorganicsLinkedIn: https://au.linkedin.com/in/jordan-alexander-794469333
