Episode Details

We've got a couple of free spirits on the show today, who happen to be mother and son. Jessica and Largo Sueiro, went on a big adventure this year; taking on the Appalachian Trail.

As a family, they have lived unconventional lives, yet this half-year of mother and son bonding must have been precious to them both, combining their hiking, Largo's school work, and his Dungeons & Dragons business along the way. Both are great conversationalists, so sit back and enjoy their story.

If you'd like to see more of their journey, you can check out their YouTube channel at World Towning and see them on Instagram at Instagram (@worldtowning) . Or, if you like the idea of traveling with the family and being introduced by them to various international cultures, check out their travel website at Full-Time Travelers Leading You To Local Experiences.

Our new book reading, Happy Hiking, by my friend, Emily Leonard is–of course–written from a woman's POV and a woman's voice. I hope you enjoy listening to my reading of it. If you'd like to buy the book, you can find it on Amazon at Happy Hiking: Falling in love on the Appalachian Trail, or on Emily's website, at Happy Hiking.

I used my recent hike in the UK on the South West Coast Path to help raise money for my absolute favorite charity, Parenting Matters, on whose board I've been privileged to serve for over a decade. You can learn more about the hike and the organization–and donate–by visiting Hike with Steve - Empowering Parents, One Step at a Time | Parenting Matters %. I hope you want to support this critical mission.
