Sometimes Glamp Queens just need to have a chat with the mountains to recenter, reflect and find our inspiration. This episode’s vibe is a little different than what we normally do! We wanted to take a moment to sit back and reflect on why we do what we do and our passion for Mother Nature. Are the mountains calling you? Do you really need to get away from your computer for more than five minutes? Grab your headphones and talk a walk with us as we listen in to the beautiful world around us.

In the aftermath of Winter Storm Uri, millions of Texans found themselves without safe drinking water, electricity and warmth during below freezing weather. In this episode, we reflect on the creative ways our fellow Texans found to survive by using their camp gear such as propane stoves, sleeping bags, lanterns, and other cold weather gear. The impact of this storm continues to leave its trace on Texas as broken pipes wait for repairs and grocery store shelves remain empty. Once again we are called to help each other through this difficult time. We encourage our listeners to donate to their local food bank. Check our links below for Food Banks in Dallas & Austin, TX.
