Keep walking with me

Today’s guest is someone who took a path many people dream about, but very few actually dare to follow.After graduating from the Sorbonne University, Ruta spent more than a decade inside the corporate world, working in business management and sales for major international companies. Our guest reached a turning point. What started as a simple hike during a difficult moment in life became something much bigger: a profound reconnection with Nature.Since 2013, the outdoors has become not only a refuge but a teacher. Climbing mountains, hiking through forests, sleeping under the stars, and walking for hours in silence gradually transformed the way she looked at life, well-being, and human potential.In 2021, Ruta made the bold decision to leave the corporate world behind and dedicate herself fully to helping others reconnect with Nature, with themselves, and with what truly matters.Through the creation of Be Outside Coaching, Ruta combines two powerful worlds: human development and immersive experiences in Nature. Her retreats and programs, developed across Switzerland and Lithuania, integrate neuroscience, coaching, and research-based nature connection practices to create transformational experiences for individuals and teams.But perhaps what makes this story so compelling is the simplicity of the realization behind it all: sometimes the healing, the clarity, and the answers we are searching for don’t arrive inside an office, a screen, or even a therapist’s room; sometimes they arrive while walking quietly through a forest trail.Today, we explore the healing power of Nature, the courage to reinvent one’s life, and why walking outside may be one of the most important practices for modern human beings.

Embark on a unique journey through history, wisdom, and music as you listen to our new podcast episode with Phil Cousineau. Phil is an award-winning writer and filmmaker, story consultant and editor, travel leader and inspirational speaker on myth in the modern world. His life-long fascination with the art, literature, and history of culture has taken him on many journeys in many realms. He lectures frequently on a wide range of topics--from mythology, film, and writing, to beauty, travel, sports, and creativity. He has published more than 40 books and has earned 25 scriptwriting credits. Born at an army hospital in Columbia, South Carolina, in the 1950s, Phil Cousineau grew up just outside of Detroit, once known as the "Paris of the Midwest." While moonlighting in a steel factory he studied journalism at the University of Detroit. Before turning to writing books and films full-time in the 1980s, Cousineau’s peripatetic career included stints as a sportswriter, playing semi-professional basketball in Europe, harvesting date trees on an Israeli kibbutz, painting 44 Victorian houses in San Francisco, and teaching screenwriting at the American Film Institute in Los Angeles. Phil is an extraordinary human being.

A beautiful moment is waiting for you outside. It is time to pick up your headphones and walking shoes to listen to our new podcast episode. Join us in a conversation with inspiring music with Nipun Mehta. Nipun Mehta is the founder of ServiceSpace, a global community working at the intersection of technology, volunteerism and a gift culture. As a designer of large-scale social movements that are rooted in small acts of service and powered by micro moments of inner transformation, his work has uniquely catalyzed "many to many" networks of community builders grounded in their localities and rooted in practices of cultivating deeper connection -- with oneself, each other and our systems. Today, ServiceSpace reaches millions every month, is powered by thousands of volunteers, and blossoms into ever-expanding local and virtual service projects that aim to ignite a "whole great than the sum of its parts". Nipun was honored as an "unsung hero of compassion" by the Dalai Lama, not long before former U.S. President Obama appointed him to a council for addressing poverty and inequality in the US. Yet the core of what strikes anyone who meets him is the way his life is an attempt to bring smiles in the world and silence in his heart: "I want to live simply, love purely, and give fearlessly. That's me." + Nipun Mehta - https://nipun.servicespace.org/about/ + Service Space - https://www.servicespace.org/ + Walking Mentorship - ⁠⁠https://walkingmentorship.com/⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠#walkingmentorship⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠#mentoring⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠#nature⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠#mentoringprogram⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠#teamdevelopment⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠#selfdevelopment⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠#servicespace
