LQ Unscripted

SHOW LESSThis is a story of inspiration, hope and courage about one man's healing journey to overcome adversity, during a time when you have many different paths to take in life. Often times, you have the option to "give up" or see the silver lining and push through to victory. We hope Wendell's story will aide others that may be battling with their own healing journey. The Outdoor Healing Spirit Today we talk to my guest, Wendell Hall, about his love for nature and his intense understanding of the outdoors from both a passion and technical perspective. This link to the outdoors helped him work through a medical convalescence period in his life. Wendell speaks to how the outdoors was an innate calling from the time he was a kid in urban Indianapolis where there was little access, alternately to a life as an adult where the outdoors became a true passion which drove him to became very skilled in multiple natural environments like California coastal, maintain forests, deserts, and alpine terrain. He had no idea just how pivotal the outdoors would become to help him through the toughest period of his life, that threatened life itself. According to Wendell, he said, “the outdoors became both my motivation and my muse to creatively return to health”. This served as an engine to push him through his recovery, as well as act as the carrot to pull him back to prior levels of functional fitness.
