Adventure Mind
Adventure Mind with Tim Collins is a podcast exploring the intersection of outdoor adventure and mental health.
Each episode we explore how stepping into nature, facing discomfort, and embracing challenge can reshape the way we think, feel, and live. From hiking and backpacking to big personal hurdles, we dig into the mindset behind pushing forward when things get tough — and how the trail has a way of teaching us exactly what we need to hear.
Whether you're seeking more resilience, clarity, healing, or a deeper sense of purpose, this show is your companion on the path. Join Tim as he shares personal stories, explores the mental benefits of adventure, and talks with guests who’ve turned struggle into growth through the wild.
If you want to build a stronger mind, feel more grounded, and live a life defined by courage instead of comfort, Adventure Mind is where the journey begins.

Adventure isn’t a replacement for therapy—but for many of us, it can be a powerful part of healing. In this video, I talk about why adventure and time outdoors often feel therapeutic, especially during seasons of stress, burnout, or emotional overload. Through personal experience and reflection, I explore how movement, challenge, and being in nature create space to quiet the mind, process emotions, and reconnect with yourself in a way that everyday life rarely allows.
This episode isn’t about extreme trips or escaping responsibility—it’s about understanding why even small adventures can support mental health in meaningful ways. Whether it’s a solo hike, a quiet walk outside, or pushing yourself just beyond your comfort zone, adventure can help you reset, rebuild confidence, and feel grounded again. If you’ve ever felt stuck or overwhelmed, this conversation may help you see adventure as a practical tool for healing and growth.
