In this month’s episode of Trail Tales WA, we sit down with Mikaela from Paddy Pallin to explore what it truly means to be values-led in the outdoor retail space.
Mikaela shares how connection, sustainability, and community sit at the heart of Paddy Pallin’s approach — from the way they support customers on their adventures, to how they show up for the broader outdoor community. We dive into why representation and diverse voices matter in adventure spaces, and how ambassadors play a vital role in creating a more inclusive and welcoming outdoor culture.
We also unpack the community projects and events Paddy Pallin is most proud to be part of — initiatives that go beyond gear and sales, and instead focus on building meaningful relationships, supporting people on the trails, and protecting the places we love.
This episode is about purpose-driven business, community connection, and the power of aligning values with action — on the trail and beyond.
