Ep. 734: From Engineer to a Backpacking Career - Revisited - Jessica “Dixie” Mills

Originally aired June 3, 2019 When Jessica Mills, aka “Dixie”, quit her engineering job and began her first thru-hiking adventure of the Appalachian Trail, she never imagined her YouTube channel would grow into what it has become. Through her easy-going demeanor, matter-of-fact advice, and overall charming attitude, she has become one of the go-to sources of advice, inspiration,  and how-to channels to learn about all things backpacking. I hope you enjoy this look behind the scenes of the Homemade Wanderlust channel and the triple-crowner who hosts it. Be sure to check out Dixie’s weekly videos here, which include her most recent thru hike, The Florida Trail: www.YouTube.com/c/homemadewanderlust ( https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCQhqmV26773qZhzqJz4VFcw/featured ) Facebook: @HomemadeWanderlust ( http://www.facebook.com/homemadewanderlust ) Instagram: @HomemadeWanderlust ( https://www.instagram.com/homemadewanderlust/?hl=en ) Website/Blog: www.homemadewanderlust.com ( http://www.homemadewanderlust.com/ ) Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/adventure-sports-podcast/donations Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brands Privacy a Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy
