The Outdoor Adventure Series welcomes Lydia Beck, the Communications Chair for Reno Tahoe Territory and Marketing & PR Manager for Visit Carson City. Together, they dive into the vibrant, collaborative world of the Reno-Tahoe Territory—a unique, grant-funded organization of the Nevada Commission on Tourism that brings together six amazing Nevada destinations, including historic Carson City, Carson Valley, North Lake Tahoe, The Reno-Sparks region, South Lake Tahoe, and Virginia City.

Lydia shares how these communities work in unison to promote outdoor adventure, year-round activities, and authentic small-town charm. Lydia shares insider tips on curating incredible travel experiences, how film and television are driving a new wave of tourism known as "set jetting," and why the region is the perfect blend of natural beauty, history, and adventure.

In this episode of the Outdoor Adventure Series, we're chatting with two inspiring leaders in the world of coaching and the great outdoors: Ellie Lloyd-Jones, founder of Elevate with Ellie and Elevate Networking, and Jonathan Passmore, professor, award-winning psychologist, Master Coach, and author. Together, they share their journeys of bringing coaching outside the traditional office walls, exploring the powerful intersection of personal development, group dynamics, and nature.

Ellie talks about her transition from corporate life to leading group coaching sessions in England's lush landscapes, highlighting how the outdoor environment creates space for authentic connection and creativity. Jonathan Passmore reflects on his decades of experience coaching leaders and teams, revealing the moment he realized that moving conversations outdoors could unlock deeper growth by dismantling professional facades and tapping into our more natural selves.

They discuss their collaborative journey—how a chance meeting at a coaching conference blossomed into the completion of the Thames Path walking project and their latest book, "Outdoor Coaching: A Practical Guide for Coaches and Supervisors to Working with Clients, Teams and Groups using Blue Green Psychology."

This episode will inspire you to step outside, reconnect with nature, and discover the surprising benefits that await when we take our coaching out of the office and onto the trail.
