In this episode, I’m joined by Paul Holle—a wilderness medicine instructor, mountain athlete, and the founder of Idaho Rescue Training. Paul’s work and passion have taken him to 18 countries, climbing some of the world’s most iconic peaks and leading wilderness medicine courses in remote, high-stakes environments.
We dive into his journey from the Colorado Rockies to the mountains of Nepal, how he built a wilderness training company from the ground up, and what it takes to teach life-saving skills in some of the most unforgiving terrain on earth. Whether he’s soloing Idaho’s 12,000-foot peaks, running 30+ courses a year, or guiding treks with his two young sons, Paul brings the mindset of resilience, curiosity, and service to everything he does.
