What Happened to Hannah Moody? Hiking Influencer Passes Away
In an unfortunate turn of events, the Scottsdale Police Department has confirmed the death of popular hiking influencer, Hannah Moody. She was reportedly 31 years old. The social media personality, who documented her trekking expeditions for the internet while working at restaurants for a living, was found dead near the Gateway Trailhead of the McDowell Sonoran Preserve in Scottsdale.
Here's everything you need to know regarding the untimely passing of the hiking influencer.
On May 22, Scottsdale authorities issued an official press release to announce Hannah Moody's death, having located her lifeless body near the aforementioned Arizona hiking trail. Encapsulating what had happened, the statement, shared by the officials on Facebook, read, 'Hannah was first reported missing around 7:50 p.m. on May 21 by concerned friends who had not heard from her. Scottsdale officers responded to the trailhead where she was last seen and located her vehicle still in the parking lot. Efforts to reach her by phone or ping her cellphone were unsuccessful. Officers began search efforts on foot, with drones and assistance from a Phoenix Police Department helicopter.'
The search operation went on for over four hours before the Scottsdale personnel put a halt to the efforts for the day. However, they resumed their pursuit to locate the 31-year-old the next day by deploying as many as 20 officers, with the Maricopa County Sheriff's Office search and rescue team and air unit providing drone assistance.
They soon became aware of Hannah Moody's death, with the search party discovering 'Hannah's body around 12:05 p.m., about 600 yards off-trail.' While the Scottsdale detectives will be conducting a thorough investigation to uncover the truth behind Moody's passing, the authorities have not found any 'obvious signs of foul play or trauma at this point.'
Prior to her unexpected death, Hannah Moody had noted that she had recently switched jobs and was now working in the day shift. Despite stressing over the transition in the initial stages, Moody noted a change in perspective in her last Instagram video, where she thanked God for allowing her to go on sunset hikes.

Aussie influencer Sam Guggenheimer: Social media is a highlight reel
Influencer Sam Guggenheimer, who boasts hundreds of thousands of online followers, is urging people to protect their well-being by not comparing their lives to the 'highlight reels' we see on social media. The 23-year-old has opened up about the mental health struggles she has experienced since her early teens as part of New Corp Australia's Can We Talk? campaign, in partnership with Medibank. Advertisement 'From depression to anxiety and overcoming an aggressive eating disorder, mental health challenges have been a constant part of my journey,' Guggenheimer said. 'They've shaped me into the person I am today. 'Although some of the darkest days felt never-ending, there was always a part of me that knew there was light at the end of the tunnel.' In a job with no set hours, the popular podcaster who has more than 349,000 followers on TikTok said her mental lows could manifest as fatigue, where even simple tasks felt draining and overwhelming. Advertisement 'During these times, I struggle to focus, feel unmotivated, and notice a real dip in my creativity,' she said. Guggenheimer, who is based in Melbourne, said she could lose interest in usually joyful activities and sometimes felt 'stuck, just going through the motions without real purpose.' TikTok influencer Sam Guggenheimer, 23, tells her followers that to protect their well-being, they should not compare their lives to the 'highlight reels' we see on social media. Sam Guggenheimer/Instagram But she has been candid with her followers about her struggles — something she has found 'incredibly powerful.' Advertisement 'It not only helps me feel less alone but also provides other girls with the reassurance that life isn't perfect and polished all the time — and that's okay,' she said. Guggenheimer said she had worked 'really hard' to improve her mental health, and found that have a strong routine was 'crucial' for maintaining a stable mindset. 'I've fallen in love with the gym and working out, and being physically active every day has truly transformed my self-esteem and my belief in my ability to overcome challenges,' she explained. Guggenheimer said with so much access to people's 'curated lives online', it was easy to fall into the trap of comparison.

Sam Guggenheimer/Instagram 'This often leads to feelings of isolation and makes it harder to form real, meaningful connections, which can take a toll on self-esteem,' she said. Guggenheimer said she resonated deeply with the 'Can We Talk?' message because it encouraged tough, honest conversations. 'Being vulnerable, whether online or in real life, can feel daunting, but it also creates real connection and understanding,' she said. 'It reminds everyone that no one's life is perfect — and having these conversations can truly save lives.' Her advice to others struggling was 'be kind to yourself.' 'We are often our own worst critics and can be incredibly harsh on ourselves — in ways we would never treat another person,' she said. Advertisement 'Don't beat yourself up over mistakes or imperfections; show yourself the same care and compassion you would offer someone you love.' She encouraged people to build positive and sustainable habits for their well-being. 'Whether it's signing up for a new gym program, going for a walk to your local cafe every morning, or setting aside time for activities you love — physical movement … releases endorphins and boosts your mood naturally,' she said. Advertisement 'Lastly, lean on the people around you.' 'Build and nurture your real-life relationships.' 'Remember: what you see online is often just a highlight reel.'

Paige Spiranac Got 'Greatest Experience of my Life' with Tiger Woods
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Any golf fan would give almost anything for a lesson from the legendary Tiger Woods. Well, the equally famous Paige Spiranac had that opportunity, and naturally, it was unforgettable. Spiranac recounted the experience during a recent interview on the Vanity Index podcast by Skratch. The former pro player and current influencer also revealed what impressed her most about Woods—and it wasn't precisely his golf skills. "He gave me a chipping lesson once. It was like the greatest experience of my life," Spiranac said. "He smells so good, by the way... like that was the first thing I noticed." "I remember he hugged me, and he smelled so good, and I didn't take my jacket off or wash it for an embarrassingly long time because I was like, 'I feel and smell like a winner,'" she added. Of course, the moment also involved the highest quality of golf. Spiranac described the lesson she received from Tiger Woods just as you would expect from such an opportunity. "We were doing this low little spinny shot and so we opened the club up almost like on your back, open stance, narrow choke down, and you take it out and almost slice across it and it's you hit it with like a 54 [degree wedge] it comes out low and then checks on the second bounce. It's a really cool shot. He did [demonstrate it] and it was perfect." Paige Spiranac is the golf personality with the most followers on social media. She is currently followed by more than one million X users, more than four million on Instagram and more than 1.4 million on TikTok. Her YouTube channel has over 445,000 subscribers.

Man arrested after three police officers injured
A man has been arrested on suspicion of grievous bodily harm with intent after three police officers were seriously assaulted. Officers attended a property in Gossops Drive, Crawley, at about 14:30 BST on Saturday, to arrest a suspect in an ongoing investigation. The suspect resisted arrest and assaulted the officers, causing significant injuries, before fleeing to a nearby property, Sussex Police said. Following a negotiation, the suspect – a 43-year-old man from Crawley – was arrested and taken into custody, where he remains. All three officers have been taken to hospital for treatment, the force said. Det Supt Karrie Bohanna said: "Violence towards emergency workers is absolutely unacceptable and will not be tolerated. "Police officers put themselves at risk to protect the public, but they should not expect to be assaulted in the course of their duties. She commended the three officers for their "bravery" and said they would receive the "full support of our police service while they recover". Sussex Police is not seeking anyone else in connection to the incident. Anyone with further information or relevant video footage has been asked to share it with the force.
