All Things Alone! With Callie Russell from Season 7 of Alone.

Callie and Kielyn dive deep into our experience alone and how we can relate to each other's story.

[@matthewlanglands6943]

Best season and show. You two girls did so well. Absolute legends. Keep being you.

[@foragingwildediblesinwisco4459]

You both were the winners in my eyes. You're both such an inspiration and truly amazing women. Truly incredible and down to earth. 🥰

[@buttah789]

Thank you for mentioning that it was a privledge to be there and that you both worked to not overuse the resources around you. While watching, that's something I thought about a lot and appreciate you recognizing it! As a novice outdoor enthusiast, I look up to both of you in terms of your physical/mental strength, the spiritual aspect you brought to the experience, and the care you had for all living things around you. Much respect and love to you both!

[@mindywong3839]

Both girls did so well, double the time of mark and Joe. I can't imagine 2 girls about the same age as 2 guys doubling their time out in the harsh and unforgiving wilderness. Not to mention having to deal with their monthly cycles 3 times. Are sanitary pads allowed or considered part of the 10 items? Kielyn lost mentally but 80 days is super amazing. I don't think I can last more than 20 days or perhaps I don't think I would ever summon up enough courage to take part. Callie lost due to her badly frostbitten toes but she was mentally so strong even on day 89. Callie would have won on earlier seasons where the longest was 87 days. Callie, I hope you can take part again and win the money. You deserve it. I cannot even imagine the tough days you girls went through. Well done, Callie and Kielyn. Well done is an understatement. I cried when the medical team told Callie she had to leave. 89 days. I swallowed my tears hard.

[@otomeza1991]

In my opinion strength isn't about denying certain aspects of ourselves. Strength is about having the inner resources and resilience to be whole in the face of adversity. It's not about not feeling it's about being able to hold those emotions so that we can carry on. To me Keilyn your display of emotion was both authentic and inspiring. Such a healthy way of being in this world x

[@scottrose3771]

I was rooting so hard for you both to make it and to see 3 checks handed out! Everyone was so deserving! I love how much you both respect nature and living in balance. I’m glad I decided to watch this because I did have the completely wrong idea with Kielyn pulling the snares. I’m so happy to see a show on the air like this. Big challenges for mankind ahead with the grand solar minimum. I’m currently living on 62 acres and growing about 10% of my food. These lost skill are critical. I think about what it would be like to take it to 100% on a short term basis all the time. Lots and lots of respect!

[@swilliam81]

Both well deserving of the win. Two very powerful and impressive women!!! Much respect!

[@michellelabelle2570]

Awesome bunch of ladies right here!!! So inspiring...so beautiful.. so strong!! I aspire to be more like you both!! You both won!!! Xoxo Keep inspiring woman and girls across the world. Its so important for us to be more confident in the bush and more independent! Xox So much love for you both!

Oh..... Hi Hank❤❤❤

[@charleygordonFFA]

You were both so inspiring. Kielyn, I was really rooting for you as a Canadian! I loved the elation you had whenever you caught a fish :)

[@jerrysmith7251]

Season 7 is my absolute favorite season yet and I must say that you two young ladies IMHO are bad asses ! I really thought one of you had this in the bag, but you guys made it so much fun for me to watch this season. I just hope that alone the show can keep up the good work in picking the contestants for the show because they were spot on for this season 7. I love the fact that the show was 1 1/2 hours long this year with the questions and answer and from listening to you guys there was so much more footage that could have been shown and times that by ten contestants they could have a two hour show every week and I would absolutely watch all two hours of it. I also love how you keep us posted on your lives as you move forward in your lives, it really is cool how you two mesh together, and your right you two are winners in my book to. Thanks for the updates and please keep them going !! Love you guys and God bless both of you !!

[@sherryjohnson3804]

Crying is very important, you get out those emotions and can move on, you both did incredibly well... Should be very very proud

[@RPRIMICI]

I agree with Callie being unflappable. Always calm and with a calm attitude and voice. She quickly became a favourite of the season 7. What I remember most is her always being cheerful and optimistic. I never saw her get too down to the point of tears. I was rooting for Callie to get a big animal to keep her fed and stay in the running for the win but despite not having the luck to get a big animal, she did quite well.

[@sarahbe1]

Powerful, humble, caring women like you two are the FUTURE of the wild, nature and earth!!!! And thank you so much for sharing the broken snare stories! I live in the wild and hunting is my next thing to learn, but I have not like the idea of snares for this very reason. I don’t want to torture animals. Bless you both!!!

[@Seed833]

Two beauties right there! Great job 🙌🏻🙌🏻ladies🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻💫💫💫🐇🦔🦈❄️🌬❤️

[@FireflyOnTheMoon]

Certainly the best season of all. I've just watched it (UK). I'm in cancer treatment and in a low - and you both were just rivetting to watch and have given me a big lift through your power, strength and resilience. People who criticise you for crying haven't last three months in the arctic with no food. Rest assured, they wouldn't last eight minutes.

[@SenpaiKai888]

These are some of the only "celebrities" I have huge respect & interest in. Beyond beautiful.

[@MrsTracyGuichard]

My favorite scene was when you caught the fish and laughed for joy. I couldn’t stop laughing with you. I could totally relate to that scene as sometimes I am holding in so much emotion and I do not realize it till a release happens.. then I am Wow.. I did not realized all that was held inside of me.

[@kmusgrat]

Just finished season 7. Great job! Really was cheering for both of you. don't worry about the portrayal in my opinion both of your stories were inspiring , great perseverance and attitude by both of you!!

[@kennedy6923]

I learned some good and reaffirming things about myself today. I appreciated hearing about this time from another female perspective. Loved seeing Sensitivity and empathy a well. From a happy homesteader and alone sort of dreamer.

[@CaptainAiryca]

This was an amazing conversation. Thank you so much for posting this up to KZbin too!! I have a hard time catching live streams because I've got two little kiddos. I love the discussion about emotions. I related to Kai and I totally enjoyed hearing Callie's perspective and you two discussing them!

[@littlebeebs1]

[@judeevolves3347]

Oh how I adore you two! My favorite contestants of my favorite show but also just for the people you are. Kei I just want to punch anyone who would dare call you a cry baby! You process your grief in the moment and that is beautiful. It's how its supposed to be done. If more people could figure that out the world would be a better place. Thanks for sharing your experiences with us. I look forward to hearing more! ❣❣❣

[@suzannaj3834]

New subscriber and Kailynn I’m a crybaby too❣️I’ve been binge watching Alone for the first time this week! I finished S7 this morning and you rock girl. You and Callie both. I cried when you cried. I’m an empath as well and I felt what you went through. You have inspired me in so many ways. I’m on my own journey of sorts and God brought you to me for a reason because I don’t have cable nor am I a TV watcher. My mom loves the History channel and was watching Alone last week so I downloaded the app on my phone. Best thing I ever did. ❤ Congratulations on your accomplishments from being who you are now as well as a former Olympic hopeful to the guns on your arms! Lol😂I was so impressed by you. I rooted for girl power. I so wanted you to win. You did win…❤

[@FourLoopMedia]

I’m so proud of both of you. Kai you were so tough and inspiring, Callie you are an amazing unique soul. I was rooting for you two the whole season. I cried when you came so close. I especially was moved by how kind and loving you were to the animals, something we don’t always get from the other contestants.

[@lureofthenorth]

Thank you so much! :)

[@apeacefulwolfretirement1984]

So good to hear that kind of shearing experience, live with us... what I appreciate the most is that you Kielyn, you are to me an authentic woman with the wisdom and sensitivity that every man would like to find in their spouse like your lucky Dave did find 😀. Being able to express your feelings and mental issues while challenged to survive by your own personal confidence and knowledge and struggling to stand over your vulnerabilities for a period of time such as these, is a lesson that you're teaching us with grace. Be proud of yourself, "amazing strong woman" 💪 💖, and receive all my respect "beautiful soul" and Lady...🧙‍♂️congratulations 👏 for this season 7 participation and the way you've been emotionally involve so much into. 🙏💖.

[@Erated78]

[@JMnyJohns]

You were both so inspiring. Thank you Kie for sharing your life and emotions with us like that. I haven't seen all the seasons, but in some, some of the participants seem to be kind of posing or selling a certain story. At least that is how it felt. What makes the show feel unique is that there aren't producers creating false drama between the participants or trying to create something out of nothing like on every other reality tv show. Well, at least not too much ;). You were real, that's why people respond. I hope you are able to continue to be in front of the camera in some fashion in a similar manner - just without starvation. :) Take care.

[@susanthursdays5008]

These women are so damn 💪 strong, and so intelligent - in every way!; on every level!! What great role models and powers! I am obviously discovering them later on than many, but look forward to following them, going forward. - Also, must say, is really precious to listen to them share about their POV & perspective & responses “in the moment” - to their decisions & actions; and that they were ‘conscious and contemplative’ on higher levels than I have ever heard someone express their conscious awareness of “values” for self and the life that sustain them regarding hunting, harvesting, ‘’living off the land’’ whilst in survival mode, none the less. 🙏 What a life altering experience .. Callie is right in that ‘money cant buy what these women won’. But also understand how bad Kie wanted to win ... however, NOT an ‘any cost’, and that’s the beauty, strength & intelligence of these women.

[@davecurtis1468]

Love you both so much and was really hoping one of you would be the winner. I agree you both won so much more. On a side not what kind of pack did you bring and where can I buy a pair of boots like you have? Thanks again Dave

[@daveb5540]

This was so great seeing you both after the show. You two are amazing :). You brought a dynamic to the show that made it special. I really enjoyed the show when it got down to the three of you, as a viewer it seemed like all three of you were deserving of winning. Some of the other contestants you just knew when the cold weather set in they would drop out, from lack of preparation. I wish you both a happy and healthy continuation of your journey in life :) .

[@lureofthenorth]

Thanks very much for your kind words!

[@johhnypop34]

[@fisherus]

I know that, after I was severely frostbitten over 45 years ago, my feet, toes, fingers and cheeks get to the point of aching painfully when exposed to the cold. I have been to many Doctors who told me that this is a very common anomaly with people who have suffered from severe frostbite. I sincerely hope that in Callie's case it isn't but, to this day when freezing temperatures hit my cheeks they crack and bleed.

[@cbaldo2368]

My two favorite contestants!

[@morto6876]

Huge love and respect for both of you. We live in day and time of no respect or consideration. You two are breath of fresh air too my taurine soul. In a time of no thanks my heart is howling freedom and it echos in very fiber of my shivering soul, too point it's making me sick I'm 52, serious health issues... Wish I had stats on number of fat males watching you two while turning the dial to stay warm. I've been 2wks w/o food. How I thanked the Lord for those 2 trout... LoL, retrain to not look for food.... ain't no getting normal.😅

[@arielhuang2535]

Kielyn you are awesome! When I saw you catch a fish on the ice, I am so happy for you. I am a crying person, it's work for me to release emotions. :)

[@littlebeebs1]

Kielyn, it’s a shame that anyone considered to you as a crybaby at all . I wonder if the critics could have handled half of what you endured. It’s also a shame that they left out some of your brighter moments and accomplishments. I see you as a hero ! You were one of the last three left . And I think it’s so cool that two of the last three were women ❤️

[@Pack.Leader]

Wow. I am so happy to have found this video and your channel. I have watched a number of seasons of Alone and none even come close to season 7, which is currently on Netflix. I've watched it a bunch of times but listening to you two ladies, I realize what a skewed impression we were given of each of the contestants. I'm sorry for thinking you were a crybaby, Kei! I was like, "Why is she screaming when she's pulling in a fish?" Now I know! Cause you hadn't even caught one in several days, probably. I wish they would have shown more of your high points so we could have seen much more than you gassing yourself in the shelter. They showed more of that than they really needed to. Now I feel like we were robbed of some really great footage of every one of you. And to imagine all your footage was ultimately cut down to ONE HOUR??? Madness. I love goats so I was really distracted by Callie's friend but it was cool that he wanted to be a part of the show. I hope you did do another video like this one, or if not, hope you will have one soon. Subscribing!

[@stonew1927]

Just finished watching the show.... I have a question: What do you ladies think about Roland? First of all, you ladies are such an inspiration, not only to women but also men! But I so appreciate how you both were so conscientious about not taking advantage of the animal and flora resources in your areas, only taking what you needed while trying to minimize your impacts. You always demonstrated respect for all the animals and the overall environment in your areas. Not the case for Roland. Regardless of how it was edited, Roland made it clear that he wasn't interested in any kind of spiritual connection out there. He took what he wanted with little regard for his impact on the surrounding environment, and even seemed to take more than what he needed, especially after having killed the ox (his excuse that it was too lean). Anyway, I know you are too kind to want to say anything negative about any of the other contestants, but I am curious what you each truly think about him and/or his methods of survival. In the end, his goal was to win a million dollars, no matter what it took. But does the means justify the ends? Congratulations on embarking on this spiritual quest, not only on the show, but in life. Thank you . . . !!

[@lureofthenorth]

Thank you for your comment and your acknowledgement that Callie and I had a deep respect for all of the resources and animals we took. You're right, it's not my place to comment on Roland's journey. I will say, that winning the million dollars was not my main reason for being out there (although it helped push me a few times!). I gained a much better understanding of who I am and who I want to be so for that I believe I won! All the best to you,

I know that you're not allowed to cut up the 10x10 tarp, but why not cut up the 20x20 tarp? You only need a small piece of it for shelter. It can be used to make a poncho, leggings, booties, mittens. Stuff them with debris. Why would you not take the tarp and the sleeping bag out with you when ice-fishing? Why would you not take debris on the ice to sit on and put your feet upon, so as to reduce your heat loss to the ice?
