About the Book
Will to Wild is a practical guide to getting out there and going on your own adventure. Drawing on years of covering adventurers, Shelby shares stories, lessons and tactics from world-class climbers, ultra-runners, thru-hikers, surfers, everyday desk jockeys and even a suburban mom who started ice climbing in her fifties.
Learn how to get unstuck, notice the signs pointing you toward adventure, face fear and handle the moments when everything goes sideways. Whether you’re an experienced adventurer or have never pitched a tent, there’s something here for you.

In addition to creating Wild Ideas Worth Living—which she launched in 2016 and later licensed and sold to REI Co-op in 2020, where she continues to serve as host, Shelby was selected to host Lufthansa’s Life Changing Places podcast and created Vitamin Joy, which debuted in June 2020. Her audio work centers on people who choose the path less traveled and stories that inspire listeners to pursue their own goals through health, wellness, and adventure.
