Meet your coaches
Hi, I’m Allison Boyle!
I’m the founder of the popular outdoor adventure blog, She Dreams of Alpine, and the creator of the Become an Outdoor Backpacking Badass® Coaching Program where I teach women+ how to be safe, confident & self-sufficient outdoor backpackers.
I started my business in 2018 on the side of my full-time engineering job (about 4 years ago). I went full-time with my business in 2019, traveled in my van with my husband for 3 years, and have grown SDA to a multiple 6-figure business with a small team of 3 women and over 1,400 students in my signature program.
…and I’m Marie-Pier Tremblay!
I’m a certified life coach who lives in Montreal, Canada. After thru-hiking the Pacific Crest Trail in 2019, I started transitioning from freelance graphic designer and illustrator to full-time business owner.
In 2021, I launched my podcast Self-Growth Nerds and my Brave & Bold coaching program, in which I guide my clients to go wholeheartedly in the direction of their dream (like I did!)
Together we'll help you rally behind your dream and make a game plan to turn it into a reality.

Here’s the path we’re taking you on
Let’s get to work and give your ideas a real chance to grow.
