In this first episode, I introduce Mermaid Mode — a podcast about women and water.

This is a space for women who feel called to the ocean, lakes, rivers, and cold plunges. Women who compete in watersports, build careers in the water industry, write about water, research it, teach it, protect it — or simply return to it again and again because it makes them feel alive.

In this episode, I share why I started this podcast, what “Mermaid Mode” means, and what you can expect from future conversations.

Different paths. Different disciplines. One shared current.

Dive deep. Stay wild.
