In this episode of Through the Gates, we sit down with Jessica Whitaker, a young female hunter who proves that you don’t have to be “born into it” to make an impact. From her first hunts to becoming an outspoken advocate at rallies, banquets, and wildlife commission meetings, Jessica’s journey shows how new hunters—especially women—are reshaping the future of conservation.

Jessica shares candidly about the hurdles she faced starting out, the misconceptions fueled by social media, and why it’s critical for more women and young people to step into the outdoors. Her story is about self-sufficiency, community, and protecting the North American Model of Wildlife Conservation against ballot-box biology and animal rights extremism.

If you’re curious about hunting, conservation, or simply overcoming barriers to entry, this conversation will inspire you to take that first step.
