Hi everyone it's Gail I've got to say it's hard to believe that it's been so long since I've said hello

I'm sitting here looking back on a full summer for me and my teammates

Haley had her second daughter in May. Noelle's been leading marketing for a startup,

and I've been getting more podcasting experience.

For one, I got to help produce season two of a show called About the Journey,

a show from Mary out Bonvoy Traveler that's hosted by

O'Nika Raymond. It's all about the different ways we can travel better through taking time to

connect with locals on our travels.

You'll even notice a familiar voice in episode two, Beth Bradley,

who I interviewed about her hiking journey a couple years ago

on No Man's Land Film Festival.

I also make a couple of brief cameos, I guess you could say.

It's a fun listen and I've been able to go behind the scenes in ways that I find really fulfilling.

We'll be back in your feed next week

here on She Explorers with a brand new episode

featuring Michaela Bauer, a mountaineer turned sailor

who's planning a circumnavigation next year.

It felt really good to be back in conversation again. In the meantime I'm really

excited to share another project that I've been working on with my good friend Anna Broness, who's been on the show a few times now.

It's a brand new podcast called Creative Fuel, and it's all about creativity and how it overlaps with her every day.

She's the host and takes a research-based approach

to digging into the science of creativity
