Our identities are critical, yet unexplored when it comes to the context of being a Camp Director. Well you know we don’t shy away from unexplored things, and Heather Davidson is here to dive in with us.

Today we are talking about identities because we love talking about them, how do our identities interact with our personal and professional lives. 

Heather Davidson shares about her experiences openly and honestly, about her identity and how it has played a role in her life. Talking about tokenism, representation, and more, we dive in with her and discuss how we can better mirror various identities in camping and more. 

Tune in to this episode to hear about:

  • How Heather, Cassie and Rachel identify themselves.
  • Is there a feeling of ever needing to hide your identity?
  • As a leader do you feel responsibility or pressure to discuss your identity? How do you cope with that? 
  • Do you feel like you see yourself represented in the camping world?
  • What is your biggest take away from living through a Pandemic? Personal and/or Professional

Do you struggle with your identity in as a camp director? Tell us about it in the comments.

What is Beyond Camp?

Beyond Camp is a new summer Podcast brought to you by Go Camp Pro.

Cassie Bloy and Rachel Kent are here to explore the intersection of camp and our lives. As much as people like to talk about camp and ‘the real world’ as two separate entities, camp professionals know that this simply isn’t true. Beyond Camp dives into how different aspects of our lives affect our camp experience, effectively bursting the camp bubble and welcoming all parts of our lives into the conversation.

Go Camp Pro is excited to bring you this weekly podcast during the summer of 2020.
