Beyond the Nest

Get ready for a great guest outdoor adventure guide: Whitney Kavanaugh! We laughed our way through this episode where we cover some sensitive topics about outdoor adventures, challenges with humor.

It all starts with Whitney's personal journey where she developed her love with nature starting when she was in college and switch her major from music to outdoor leadership. She was directionless up until that point and then she discovered nature. She had a lot of mentors along the way that encouraged her to venture into nature from the Carolinas, Colorado and now Utah. 

We talked about overcoming barriers and fears in outdoor adventures and how it was a significant aspect of Whitney's journey. Recognizing the unique leveling nature of the outdoors, where shared experiences transcend gender or background, she embraced the challenges. 

• Sexism
• Fear and Uncertainty
• Finding supporting individuals
• Peeing and pooping in the woods

We also delved into having respect for nature: Nature is a delicate masterpiece, and Whitney knows it. She's on a mission to preserve its splendor and protect it from harm. No etching names on trees or carving initials into rocks here!  Together, we'll appreciate the fragility of nature and become stewards of the wild, ensuring its magnificence for generations to come.
