I never watched You tube until my Wife passed. I listen to your channel Daily. Thank You for letting me a part of your Journey. Old Vet Here. Again Thank You 😊
I saw a short the other day with you and half-way through Wonderhussy leaned in and gave you a kiss on the cheek. Your smile after was absolutely angelic and you looked so happy. Proof that you are loved near and far by the KZread community. Just for being you.
I know the feeling. Nature definitely has a way with healing. I used drive in rural areas a lot in high school and college just to ‘get away’. Were like the saying: “not all who wander are lost”
Grew up in a group home myself, passed around from one to the other, never being good enough. Feel your pain and am thankful, grateful and lucky for a few good friends. Thank you for sharing. We love you ❤
Never forget who created that nature and beautiful scenery. We weren't created to live without him and he's very available to talk to. Then look forward as you put bad things in the rear view mirror as it fades aways. Embrace friendships and be outward giving to others.
I've said it before, and I'll say it again, Jeepsy your transformation has been nothing short of amazing! I remember seeing some of your first videos on You Tube...you could feel the sadness, and depression that was heavy on your heart. I know it sometimes gets to you. But take comfort in all of us subscribers/friends that are here for you at anytime.
Warms my heart to see how much happier you are today compared to a couple months ago. This is wonderful! Yes….many of us truly care about you! Stay true to you and you’ll be just fine!
Grandmother Earth is the BEST healer! Fast flowing water over loads me, but listening to the breeze blowing through the forest next to a quiet run little stream is heaven.
I don’t remember any of my childhood well most of it. I know my dad was a monster. We are here for you. I live my life through you. You can always talk to us. I agree everything you said is true. I went to Florida a few yrs ago. I didn’t have to take none of my inhalers or allergy meds. Something about the ocean. I could take a chair and lay by water all day every day.
You are doing exactly what I wanted to do 10 yrs ago..but my daughter in-law talked me out of it. Saying how much my grandkids would miss me. Well here it is 2024 and I only get to see them for an hour at Christmas time. We are only 50 miles apart but no one ever comes to see me.😢

mmm ya its time you do what you want,your never to old, so start by making plans and just go for it, don,t listen to anyone, and don,t tell your daughter in law, just do it, its never to late.

It's never, too late. And I agree with David. Don't tell your daughter-in-law. Until the morning you're leaving.
I hear that about all your 'friends' disappearing when you go through a tragic time. Most people are so shallow, it was a real eye opener after my daughter died. Grief is hard to handle. A person never 'gets over it', however, they can learn how to manage and cope with the pain.....if they face it. I'm so impressed with your strength to sell your home, quit your job and face all the trauma and injustices you have had in your life.
Nature is my happy place too Sarah and it makes perfect sense more than ever because nature provides the most honesty and authenticity than any other alternatives. Nature doesn't judge, it coexists if one allows it to.
Thanks for being my friend also.
I’m new to your channel and now I’m addicted! Your story and journey is truly inspirational. Thank you for sharing like you do - as openly, raw and honestly as you do. I think it helps a lot of people. You are such a sweet and genuine person. I wish only good tidings for you ✌️ blessings, my friend ❤ Keep on keepin on 🚐🐾
Hey Sarah & Lil one, thank u for taking all of us here on KZread on your beautiful journey. B save & save travels 👍✌️love u & lil one 🌺🌻🌺🌻🌺🌻
The very best choice you have made for you and for all of us. We get to share in your regeneration and your love for nature. It reminds us we are all alive and in this together. ❤ we are a world wide community. Keeping it real. Thank you.
Nature is incredible, beautiful and healing. I understand, when I’m in nature I’m at peace, my depression leaves me alone. Thank you for taking us along on your adventures, it means the world to me👍👍❤️❤️❤️❤️
From when I started watching you and now is a huge difference...especially your SMILE

❤ right we get to see the change first hand. ❤ Wonderhussy is the same way ❤. They both have so much to offer in this world 🌎 ❤. Much love to them both. I have Parkinson disease and it's hard to get out. And I will never see everything I want to in this life. But the two Sara help me so very much ❤

Thanks , you're taking me to places I'll never get to !!!!
I lived in Vegas from '01-'04 during a horrendous drought. The Virgin River never looked that beautiful, or I'd have stayed.
You are very smart to have a little one…we’ve traveled PA - AZ and back with 4 big ones (a border collie, a pit bull and 2 labs)in our Wrangler and it was tight!! Love your channel. ❤️

That WOULD be a bit tight. One reason I don't travel as much anymore, don't want to leave anyone home.
Sarah, it takes a lot to bare your soul like this. You’re helping people you don’t even know. Like you I’m in love with the desert southwest. My career has me in Dallas a few more years then it’s look out Kingman AZ! But I also escape through music. Look up the Aztec Camera tune from 1990: Good Morning Britain. It’s a triumphant song about making peace with the past and taking on the future with joy. At least that’s what this burnt out engineer living with 5 cats gets out of it. Anyway, if you find it, crank it to 11! ‘The past is steeped in shame, but tomorrow’s fair game’ And thanks again for sharing. Both yourself and the beautiful desert 🏜️
I hear you, nature is so healing! When life gets to be too much for me, I head out and do some camping or hiking! Thanks for sharing your travels and imsights with us all! May the peace of nature heal us all!
When I wake up at 3:30 in the morning in new Zealand I watch you travelling around the states you help us as well as us helping you
It is so wonderful to know you have countless souls cheering you and Little One on! You are a shinning star Beautiful! You are Loved!❤
Princess! You are so much stronger than you will ever know. That's why you are loved. Wolfie. ♥🐺
Sarah, you are such an inspiration to so very many of us out here. I know from my time in Quartzsite and other times traveling and camping what a marvelous healing balm nature is to both body and soul and I cannot wait to get back on the road again. This meetup is just the kick in the butt I needed to get me out of my rut and focusing on what I need to do to make this happen. I hope your allergies are better and that Little One is continuing to heal as well. Thank you so much for your videos as they help us as much as they help you. I hope you know where you're going to keep that silver play button when you get to 100K! You are on your way, lady!
Taking short drives to a favorite respite nature area relieves my stress. 🙂
I bet you help other too, by showing a great way to heal
Home is where you are the happiest, not a structure. Thank you for sharing.
Wow❤ I wish I could do this ,❤This has really struck a cord with me so hard,and I just feel deep down than I do need to do something, I love my job,but my lifestyle is what is needing a huge change ❤. I have always felt alone and I'm always going to feel like that because like there's a saying, "know one is knocking on my door" to see if I'm okay and I'm just in that dark spot, thank you for helping me... I just wish I can figure it out soon,.❤
You got me I subscribed, I teared up a bit, I' am happy you found your peace. I understand the youtube part, lonelyness has really attacked and got my depression up. And going out in the deserts almost every weekend perks me up, I only have a few youtubers commenting on my tiny channel, But I just perk up reading the comments. I'd love to do the full time living in nature thing, I just don't know how, Without cash I belive i'd starve. Plus the lonelyness part of it scares me thinking the worst would come out of it. I want people in my life, people just don't want me in theirs.We all love you Sarah keep being you, Love the puppers so cute in the back pack

There are TONS of way to earn money online now, so don't let the fear of not having a job scare you - you can do this if you can run a KZread channel, that's for sure. You don't have to be lonely if you take the time to engage with people when you are in town. Talk to the people in stores, at gas stations, laundromats, etc. They are working thankless service jobs and are rarely acknowledged by anyone and often torn down by people who get their kicks venting their personal crap on the "little people." You can make their day with a kind word and you never know what may come of that. Ask for restaurant recommendations, trail recommendations...whatever.
Hello my friend, I will like to say thank you very much ,you are really such an inspiration, may the good lord continue to bless and keep you
"Spending time in nature is healing energy." Such a powerful statement😊
It is your real personality that people love, 😊and we do care you are not a phony 😊.that's why you have 50.000😊 subscriber AND GROWING ❤❤❤❤❤. ❤❤❤.

At least another 400 since Friday's live! Woohoo! Let's go people - 60K is NEXT!
You make such good videos, seeing this big beautiful country that Mother Nature made for us should not get one depressed . Good weather would also help. So keep up the good work in your videos. It’s always hard to understand some people and remember you now have over 50K people who care for you and worry about you.
I agree, nothing better than nature. So peaceful. I can’t drive now and hardly get togo anywhere. I loved walking in woods and creeks. My sons and I live it. When they were little we spent at campground longer than home.
You are awesome!! I'm happy you found what makes you happy. May the wind be always at your back and the sun shine gently on your shoulders.
Goodmorning wandering spirit 😁 You and I have a regular Sunday morning coffee date so thanks for the company. Hope little one is feeling better. See ya out there
For me traveling jeep trails is the best therapy ... Was my retirement dream ... One problem, my daughters won't let me leave FLORIDA... But, I did get them to agree to two months ... July & Aug ... Those two months are way too HOT... Live in my Pro 4 X in the Rockies until it gets too cold then back to Florida....Florida has great winters ... What you're doing makes a lot of sense...keep doing what you're doing 😊😊
Sarah you are also helping many of us I’ve said it before your videos calm me and keep me company you are an amazing soul You are loved by many of us ! ❤️☮️
Nature is wonderful. We take the good weather and the ruff weather. Keep up the fantastic videos. 50,000 & climbing. 🐕🙏
Used to drive The gorge everyday from Mesquite to St George for work
WJ, thank you for this video. I have been dealing with depression for over 10 years now. I live vicariously through you. Other than work 30 miles away, 3 days a week, I rarely leave my house. I live alone & prefer it that way, however, I wish I could get myself to go out in nature to possibly start healing, but, I can't get myself to leave the house other than work or when it gets to the point when I need necessities which is very stressful to me. Again, thank you for showing there is always hope. Much love & peace.❤✌️

I'm dealing with a situation similar to yours. I took an early retirement after working full time for many years. For 11 of those years I had my fur baby with me. But I lost her last year and can't bring myself to get another. Life is not the same now.
Thank you for taken me with you on your journy throu that beutiful contry! I am new here and I am from Sweden. Lite has make you strong brave and independent. You can take care of yourself. Everything has a meaning. When lite is tough you learn and grow. You have so mutch to give to help others. Life will be better and better for you! Gud bless you ❤❤❤
Travelling and nature are great therapy Jeepsy, and I'm sure your videos are helping a lot of people who can't make it out to all these beautiful, remote areas you love to visit!
If you ever get the chance, try to stay a couple of days at a place that backs to the Virgin River just outside the entrance to Zion National Park in Utah. October is a good time as the leaves are changing and most of the crowds are gone. There are gentle, green slopes that would also be great for your dog.
I soo envy you ! as I am bed bound with depression etc.! I wish I had the guts to do what you are doing ! New fan from Nova Scotia ,Canada

Get outside, however you can. KZread has the ReWilding and Earthing videos (free with ads) to watch, which I highly recommend. Nature is such a marvelous healer and I too know from personal experience the joy and utter peace this lifestyle brings (minus the KZread part). Nomads in general are incredibly giving and forgiving and will help you in any way they possibly can. MANY nomads are dealing with depression, anxiety, PTSD, and similar issues and find that this is the only thing that helps. Going for a walk in nature, wherever you can find it, will also lift your spirits and lead to better thinking. If you can't walk, go out in a wheelchair (as I don't know what else ails you). If walking is difficult, use hiking poles (preferable), a cane, or a nice walking stick. You will feel better as soon as you are away from other people, traffic, noise... Even if you have to go to a city park, find as quiet and secluded a spot as possible. Stand, walk, or even lie down on the earth and allow it to heal you.

Virgin river gorge is gorgeous....cedar pocket is a good place to take a break.
Hey young lady, understand perfectly,after Vietnam I stopped smiling, ruined a great marriage. Now I seek solitude, VA says not good, but now I smile. 👍❤️

As the daughter of a social worker at the VA (now deceased), I can tell you that he always said if they spent as much time trying to help the patients as they did with their stupid politics, they would help a lot more people. Nature is a far better healer than most of what they have to offer at the VA, despite the fact that they do have some good people who try. Just make sure your solitude is the healing type, in nature, and not self-isolation someplace unhealthy.
So good to see Sarah..makes me happy to watch you..I really think ur alright...thanks for the great video..

Hi WJ, Little One strapped in a bag with a satellite dish around her neck being carried around the desert, "This is Living" and loving every second😂❤
First time commenting and love your prescript. Thank you for sharing. I’m in a job now that is toxic and watching your videos and other nomads inspires and keeps me grounded as I make my path towards a life where I can wonder and be in nature. Thank you for taking me along and for being real and sharing your truth. ❤
Thanks , you're taking me to places I'll never get to !!!!
Understand something Sara, you are helping many of us dealing with loneliness just like you. I personally watch you because I was born in Nevada and I miss being able to do what you do. I live in Pahrump now and take care 88 year old mother and I'm 70 now so my roaming days are over but I can still work and do, you furnish the rest. Your purpose in life may well be to take care of us old fuks. Thank you
We all have a battle going on. I think it's fantastic you have the courage to talk about it. Your truly a lovely lady who makes this planet a better place.
Thank you for sharing, I can't even imagine what you have gone thru. I can relate to the so called friends bailing on you when you need them the most. 62 and getting ready to retire and am looking forward to hitting the road with my 2 puppers and healing my soul. So happy you found what makes you happy. ❤
You are probably helping so many people especially young people to get through the anxieties of life by telling your story and sharing beautiful Mother Nature. I’m a firm believer that we can become grounded and find peace when we are one with nature. Safe travels and hugs to you and lil one 😊❤ 🤗
Travelling and seeing the world is a life worth living 🎈🌸
Your ending - Moonlight sonata while walking off into the chaparral was just a perfect ending to the calm but profound memories and feelings you shared with us. It personally struck a chord that transported/transended off to a peaceful/spiritual connection
Wonderful video from start to finish, both the words and the scenery! I'm sure many of us can relate to at least some of the things you spoke about. Thank you for your honesty and for being so open and for sharing. Stay positive! Peace! 🌈🌵🌼🌞
You are a Survivor & an inspiration for many! I’ve been watching your channel for several months and I can say this: you’re a very sweet kind woman ❤! Many Blessings on all your endeavors ❤… Your healing ❤️🩹 all your Generational curses & being in nature is the best form of energy & therapy for All… Being at peace 🕊️ is the best place to be and living through our heart center is the absolute Best!!
Sarah you are very special 🥰 God dosen’t make mistakes… God Bless you and Little One 🙏🥰🤗🇨🇦
Sarah. I can totally relate. I teared watching this video, it was as if you were telling my story 😢 continue on your journey & God Bless you 🙏🏼
Absolutely. I'm proud of you. You found the meaning of life, living in the moment
The best therapy I've ever had was also the outdoors, but in the last few months I have not been able to get out and hike as much as I used to. You and your videos are such a calming presence, I also love that you have the courage to share about your depression depression. I'm also 46 and I've had a good life so I feel like nobody understands my depression. You are one of two of my absolute favorite you tubers who inspire me and keep me going. Thank you. ❤
When I’d start feeling the pressure of my life at the time, I’d get into my truck, get as much change together as I could and I’d take off down the road. I’d feel the same as you once I was out in the open! There wasn’t GPS, or any technical stuff, I was lucky to have my cell phone. But I had to escape. Whatever the issues were at the time, getting out and just exploring gave me some peace to face whatever was going on. So I get it Sarah truly. Isn’t it beautiful out in nature?!! Fascinating things happen in nature. ❤️❤️ travel safe girl. 🥰
Hi you two from England you and the little one have made my world a happier place with your most enjoyable travels thank you X
Awesome video! Sounds like u were pushed to the crossroad & u took the high road 🤙🏽 All on your own 🏆 So brave & heroic🙏 Thx for sharing Sara , your awesome.
The race is long and in the end it’s only a race with ourselves. Service to others is the best therapy and you serve many people you don’t know❤
I feel just like you. I understand you . But we are still alive , we have today to make it wonderfull and peaceful . ❤
Thank you for sharing , I found your channel when you first started because of your Jeep and I watch every week. I am happy your finally feeling some peace in your like, weather you believe or not the Lord Jesus is silently by your side! 🙏🏻❤️
Stay on the move .thank you for letting us join you and little one . i am sure you words help many . enjoy you journey.
Thank you for sharing
I've been watching your video's for awhile. And relate to quite a bit of tragedy's myself. Not comparing in any way what you have. I'm an old man now and can't hike and keep up with you now. But I woulda loved to have met you 20 years ago.💙 Your life and what your doing is awesome young lady. Thumbs up!😎👍
Hi, your channel is fascinating to me. I also have found nature to be healing. I spent a lot of my childhood life gold mining with my father and siblings in the wilderness of northern California. We spent days on the rivers mining and swimming. A young girl, I remember thinking, how can people work all the time for a week vacation? when this was a vacation every day? I would love to connect with you on our journey. You are real. ❤
We find out who our true friends are in a crisis situation. I, too, have lost many so called go friends. I'm better for it once I learned to set boundaries. You're great and don't let anyone tell you any different. I love your content. Keep on keeping on. Amy
I loved the being and all that rock you were driving thru. I think that why I fell in love with Arizona. The scenery is some different from California. And I breath a lot better out there.
My son has bad anxiety when it gets bad, he goes walking. Here we have trails you can walk. Mostly wooded area. I found out two summers ago( I’m allergic to mold. It’s outside here with all the trees and dead stuff laying around.
I feel you Sister life sucks a lot. I struggle myself. Thank you for sharing your story sincerely…🌻🌻🌻
I'm right there with you Girl! Nature is Healing! Full Time Nomad Living in the Wilderness in my Van - 7yrs Times I've Paid for Camping - 0

Hi Sarah 👋 such a beautiful place!! If that place doesn't do it for ya, nothing will. Enough said!! 👍 It's nature at its finest! Plus you get healed up and feeling wonderful...I say it's a win...win! Your inspiration to those of us who can't get out there in nature, and do what you do. See all of the beautiful great outdoors that's out there to explore. We live vicariously through you, and loving every minute that your out there! For those folks, we thank you so much, and for those who can....get out there and see it up close for yourselves! God bless you Sarah 🙏 and keep on jeeping and stay healthy always, and Lil One too! Happy & safe travels 🚙 On to your next! 👍 😎 ❤️🐕

Enjoy watching your journey. You are a special person. Thanks for being so honest during your filming.
Thank you for sharing your adventures. I travelled the southwest years ago and i fell in love with it. Watching your videos brings me back.
Everyone finds their own way through life. No two paths are the same. What a wonderful remedy you’ve found for a wonderful woman! Thanks for taking us along on your journey and may God watch over you and lil’ one. Safe travels and good vibes only.
We have been watching you for some time now. This episode where you open up about your feelings really touched me. You are awesome, and yes many people genuinely care about you. Please know that I do, and I appreciate you very much!
21:45 I sooo wanted to give you hugs. And crazy as it sounds, you brought tears to my eyes. ❤
Sarah, so happy to hear you're feeling better about YOU. Been along for the journey since before you went to Moab a few years back, and you sound so more at peace for now. You and little one enjoy your travels, and you know there are MANY of us who love and support you, partially because your vids add to our lives as well. Love, CoDino
Nice walking with you.🌵🌹🙏
Sarah (or Sara?), your strength and determination is so uplifting to me. You have helped me so much. I just want to let You know this. I appreciate you and your videos and I am and always will be in your corner! Sending you and little One much love and prayers! Safe travels my friend! 😊❤
Hello wandering jeepsy , you are an example of two of the most beautiful things in this world we live , one is You , as a human being as a woman , and the other is this planet , the places You travel , and even more so that You have come back to live for both , You and our mother earth .Thanks for being the inspiration...!!👍😊👍
Loved you sharing! Lifting you up girl, if you ever come to NW Arkansas, we have a spot for you🙏🏻.
Sarah…what an amazing video! I love that road through the virgin river…such beauty! My cousin lives in Mesquite…there is a great dispensary there as well😉I so admire you and how you are living your best life! You are truly blessed!! I was out in Lancaster (Pennsylvania) area today and thought of you. We were riding free on our Harley ….my Jeep was home in the garage. I’ll take her out to Lancaster to the farm stands soon when we can buy farm fresh produce. Keep on keeping on girl! ❤
I have been watching your videos for a while now. I'm enjoying the nature you're sharing. This video had a cool driving scene with awesome music! I think you're a pretty cool human and I genuinely care about you. Giant hugs to you. And your little dog too!

I have to say that your videos are very interesting.To hear about your tragedy…and healing yourself in this way.
I care about you! and I love this vid! Nothing like walking, hiking, paddling or just sitting on a river! That is my cup of tea!
Thank you for sharing the beauty of nature with us. Hugs to you & Lil One 🤗 P.S. I think about my good fortune in that I was to be able attend your meetup at the dog park area next to the RTR in January this year …you are such a warm & kind spirited person. It was a joy to meet you & Lil One.
