From Midwest Roots to Wild Adventures Around the World

In this episode of Life in Motion, we chat with Kurt Belding, the force behind Western Obsession TV, about how a childhood spent outdoors in rural Nebraska grew into a life built around adventure, storytelling, and wild places. Kurt shares how moving to Colorado reignited his passion for elk season and backcountry pursuits, why the mountains challenged him in a completely new way, and what led him to walk away from business as usual to start chasing bigger experiences around the world. They also talk about filming in the field, building a brand around authentic outdoor storytelling, and what it takes to turn passion into a real path forward. It’s a conversation about risk, grit, and creating a life that actually feels like your own.Life in Motion is brought to you by Actual Outdoors.
