Ep79 - Dr. Nicole Apelian: Living Well in the Wild

Imagine leaving your comfortable life to survive in the wild. No modern day amenities. Barely more than the clothes on your back. But ask yourself this. If you were to leave it all behind to step into the wild, do you not only have the skills but the mindset to do so?
Dr. Nicole Apelian thrives in the wild. So much so that it's been documented twice during her time on the Alone TV Show. But just because this herbalist, biologist and anthropologist has a very special set of survival skills, doesn't mean living life in nature was void of challenges. Especially when a medical condition like Multiple Sclerosis comes into play
On this episode of HIListically Speaking Podcast, get to know Nicole Apelian as she explores the healing power of nature. What she learned from life in the wild. From deep in the woods of Victoria Island and Mongolia, to living among the Bushman and across the Kalahari Desert. How documenting her journey on television gave her more perspective about finding balance in her own backyard. Plus, she answers listeners questions about everything from medicinal mushrooms and loneliness to the power of connection and preserving cultural heritage.
