In this episode, I sit down with Michael Pitts, renowned outdoorsman and personality from REALTREE, for a conversation that goes far deeper than the woods. We dive into the world of turkeys, archery, and the passion that keeps us heading back into the field—and we also open up about the side of the outdoors that isn’t always talked about: mental health.

Michael shares stories from the hunt, his approach to mastering archery, and what drives his love for conservation and the wild places we cherish. But we also shift gears to discuss the importance of mental resilience, the value of community, and how the outdoors has shaped the way we each process stress, pressure, and personal challenges.

This is a grounded, honest conversation about the traditions we love and the mindsets that keep us moving forward. Whether you’re a hunter, an archery enthusiast, or someone looking for a real discussion on mental wellness, this episode has something special for you.

Tune in, and let’s talk turkeys, bows, and becoming better humans—one step at a time.
