about
The Mission
I believe that all those days that you’ve spent dreaming about how crazy your life could be if you just went for it - means something. I founded Wild Grit on the belief that we’re all made for an adventurous life and we owe it to ourselves to make it happen.
No matter what your “adventure” is, from learning to mountain bike to starting your own business, you have a purpose that is being blocked by fear. It’s time to live it.
I created Wild Grit to help others break out of their self-imposed cages and start living a wild, adventurous life. No matter what adventure you’re after, Wild Grit provides outdoor inspiration and tangible skills that’ll keep you stoked on your journey.
Wild is what we aspire to be. Grit is what we use to get there.
About Me
My name is Callie Waldschmidt and I'm the creator behind Wild Grit! I'm a mountain biker, hiker, skier, mechanic, survival expert, entrepreneur, author, and fitness enthusiast. There's nothing I love more than getting out into the wilderness for hours on end.
Wild Grit is my passion project and I aim to help every viewer and reader live their own most adventurous life through my videos and courses. In addition to working on Wild Grit full time, I'm also the owner of Grit Cycles, a mountain bike focused online bike shop.
