Alec is joined by Jess Caldwell, founder of Wildkind Outdoors, to explore the shift from fear-based prepping to empowered self-reliance through nature-based survival skills. They discuss how wilderness immersion, solo experiences, and confronting fear reshape our relationship with challenge, simplicity, and self-trust. Jess shares the importance of seeing nature as a partner, the fundamentals of short- and long-term survival, and how rewilding reconnects us to our human spirit.
