Summary

A Route to Resilience: Recognizing and Supporting Psychological Stress Injuries in Outdoor Culture A LIVE Sharp End Podcast with Responder Alliance Founder Laura McGladrey Part 2: The Route To Healing- Supporting Each Other & Ourselves In the second installment of this two-part series, Laura McGladrey shares a range of practical tools for recognizing and managing stress injuries. Drawing from her extensive experience in mental health and wilderness medicine, McGladrey explores both personal strategies and broader systemic approaches that can be implemented within outdoor communities and workplaces. Her insights emphasize resilience, peer support, and the importance of creating a culture where stress injury awareness is normalized and actively addressed. Episodes to listen to before this one: --> Ep 111 - Big Fall from Bad Comms with Manny and Tyler --> Ep 114 - Part I - Route to Resilience We reference Episode 111 several times throughout this conversation, so we encourage you to give that one a listen first. Then, be sure to check out Episode 114, which is Part 1 of the Route to Resilience series. That episode focuses on psychological stress injuries in outdoor culture and lays the groundwork for the tools and strategies discussed here in Part 2.
