This week, Karla Pound - better known as Karla in the Wild - joins Jake and Callan for a raw and adventurous chat about living off the land, expedition guiding, and finding freedom in simplicity. Karla shares her journey from growing up in Sydney to becoming a zoologist, camel handler, survival guide, and National Geographic expedition leader. 

They dive into her experiences traveling solo through remote Australia, her deep connection to indigenous knowledge, and wild stories from working in places like Papua New Guinea, Antarctica, and the Kimberley. Karla also opens up about gut health struggles, the impact of antibiotics, and why she leans into carnivore-style eating to stay strong during demanding expeditions. 

She even shares her next big challenge - rowing 4800km across the Atlantic Ocean with three friends, testing her physical and mental limits once again.
