Charissa Hipp reached out to Jester a few weeks ago with the idea of having some episodes centered around the topic of the power of healing in nature. After some thought, Jester decided why not bring Charissa on as a co-host!

So this week, Jester re-introduces us to Charissa to begin the co-hosting adventure! Charissa shares about her new job at the Appalachian Trail Conservancy in Harpers Ferry, WV, how the power of healing in nature has impacted her life, and that October is HIKE for Mental Health Month.

Thanks for listening and Happy Section Hiking!
