Ep 013. Planning Your Most Adventurous Year EVER with Donna Pezzullo
In this episode, I’m so excited to introduce you to someone who has become such a special part of our Backpacking Badass community—Donna Pezzullo!
Donna isn’t just a Backpacking Badass alumni; she’s also an ambassador in our community, which means she helps support and guide other women on their outdoor journeys in our Backpacking Badass Program.
What’s so inspiring about Donna is that even though she’s been adventuring in the outdoors for over 25 years, she’s always looking for ways to grow, build her skills, and empower others.
In this episode, we’ll dive into Donna’s journey—how she first fell in love with backpacking, what brought her into our world through the Backpacking Badass Program, and how she’s stepped into leadership both on and off the trail.
We’ll also talk about how she uses tools like our “Your Adventure Era Challenge” event to make a focused plan for her adventurous years, and she’ll share a sneak peek at some of her 2025 goals.
Whether you’re just starting out or you’ve been adventuring for years, Donna’s story is such a great reminder of how the outdoors is a lifelong journey of learning, growth, and connection.
