Shawn James of My Self Reliance Shares His Secrets while in Baird Country (Podcast Ep.#1)

Welcome to episode 1 of Baird Country, my new podcast. For the audio versions of my podcasts, head over to Spotify, Apple and wherever you get your podcasts.

In this one, I ask Shawn how he got into the outdoors, what his journey was like and when he decided he just had to make his passion for the outdoors his life. We're talking about a guy with an extremely good work ethic here. As a long time friend of Shawn's I tried to get to the bottom of his mid set and asked him what goes through his head when he manages to get outside in temps as low as -30 to work at the physically demanding job of hauling large logs around to build the remote cabin he lives at for much of the year.

Shawn shares some insights into what motivates him and also talks about some of the intricacies and challenges of building a cabin using all hand tools. Naturally, we talk about the outdoors, Hunting, Fishing, Canoeing and camping too, and share some skills and tips that will amp up your next trip.

Enjoy, and please stay tuned for weekly podcast uploads every Monday evening right here on my YouTube channel. I have a bunch more exciting guests in coming up.
