Hand Adventures explores adventure as a way of living — not just something you do outdoors.
Led by Steve Hand, the Live Your Adventure podcast and content focus on choosing growth over comfort, living intentionally, and defining adventure in every season of life.
Adventure is personal.
It adapts to health, family, finances, and responsibility.
This is a space for reflection, growth, and stories of people who chose engagement over drift.
What happens when adventure stops being something you do and becomes part of who you are?
In this episode, Steve sits down with David Giarrizzo of Tag'N'Brag for a conversation about hunting, storytelling, community, and building a life around the things you're passionate about. They explore how adventure evolves over time, the experiences and people that shape us, and what happens when a passion becomes part of your everyday lifestyle.
Because adventure doesn't have to be an occasional escape from life. It can become part of how you choose to live it.

Momentum Beats Motivation
Motivation comes and goes—but momentum is what keeps you moving.
In this episode, Steve sits down with Tom Cochran to explore what it really takes to follow through on big decisions. From a career in tech and the U.S. State Department to relocating his family to Maine during the pandemic, Tom shares how action—not inspiration—drives meaningful change.
Together, they discuss the gap between deciding and doing, the role of consistency in building a life that aligns with your values, and how momentum is created through small, repeated choices over time. This isn’t about waiting to feel ready—it’s about moving forward, even when you don’t.
Because once you start, things begin to shift.
Adventure isn’t sustained by motivation.
It’s built through momentum.

The Stories We Tell Ourselves
The biggest barriers to adventure aren’t always external—they’re often the stories we tell ourselves.
In this episode, Steve sits down with author Wade Ellett to explore how our internal narratives shape the decisions we make, the risks we avoid, and the lives we ultimately live. Together, they unpack how identity, assumptions, and past experiences can quietly limit what we believe is possible.
This conversation isn’t about ignoring reality—it’s about recognizing where our thinking may be holding us back, and learning how to challenge the stories that no longer serve us.
Because once you begin to question those stories, you create space for something new.
Adventure starts with a decision.
But sometimes, the first step is changing the story.

Health as an Adventure
Adventure doesn’t start on a trail, a trip, or a big decision. It starts with your health.
In this episode, Steve sits down with his sister, Suzanne, for an honest conversation about what happens when health challenges force you to slow down, reassess, and choose a different path forward. Together, they talk about setbacks, resilience, and the quiet, daily decisions that shape what kind of adventure is possible.
This episode isn’t about extremes or perfection. It’s about awareness, responsibility, and recognizing that without health, every other adventure becomes harder—or impossible.
If you’ve ever pushed through when you should have paused, or struggled to balance ambition with well-being, this episode is a reminder that taking care of yourself is not stepping back from adventure—it’s choosing it.
