Hey, I’m Teresa! Part-time land roamer, part-time sea dweller, and full-time believer that midlife isn’t a deadline. It’s an open trail.
For years, I played by the book and did the “right” things. But somewhere along the way, I lost the plot. Life became a series of obligations, and adventure turned into something I’d “get back to someday.”
Then “someday” showed up, uninvited and impatient.
I started hiking again. Then biking. Then kayaking. Then in a moment of either boldness or temporary insanity…I bought a sailboat.
Spoiler: it wasn’t graceful. But it was real.
Why Teresa Uncharted?
Because the map they gave us in our 20s didn’t show the terrain of midlife.
No one warned us that adventure would feel different at 45. That your knees might click louder than your camera shutter. That you’d have to pack snacks for your metabolism, your hormones, and your dog, all at once!
Teresa Uncharted is where I share what comes next. The imperfect, slightly creaky, still-kind-of-badass version of outdoor adventure from hiking backwoods trails to sailing salty coastlines. Even if I now travel with a foam roller and extra magnesium.
Who this is for
- You’re in your 40s, 50s (or beyond) and wondering if it’s too late to shake things up. It’s not.
- You’ve felt burned out, boxed in, or invisible and want to feel alive again.
- You’re craving fresh air, honest stories, and maybe a little dog hair in your tent.
What to expect
Real talk. Practical tips. Coastal wanderings. Trail mishaps. Gear reviews that don’t assume you’re a 25-year-old influencer.
Whether I’m hiking, biking, kayaking, or sailing you’ll get the kind of content that makes you want to shut your laptop and get outside (just as soon as you finish your coffee and stretch your hamstrings).
Coming up…
→ A deep dive into hiking gear that actually works for midlife women
→ What it’s really like to sleep on a sailboat with a dog
→ Trail guides, trip mishaps, and honest reflections from BC’s backcountry and coastline
Thanks for being here.
If you’re looking for curated perfection, you’re in the wrong cove.
But if you’re craving a comeback? You’re already on the right path.
Let’s get uncharted.
