School Of The Forest Podcast Episode Eight; Representation In The Outdoors With Jackie Stratton Of Waterways Guiding

In the latest episode of the SOTF podcast, I'm joined by Jackie Stratton, a registered Maine Guide, and Maine master naturalist. We talked about everything from Jackie's passion for the outdoors and how it started, her path to becoming a Maine guide and hunter, and how she wants to build a guide service that specifically aims to provide guiding trips for women, families, queer and trans folks, and other groups that don't often get representation in the outdoor industry.  This is a great chat,  touching on a lot of topics that I think need more exposure in the Guiding/Outdoor Education conversations that are always occurring around campfires.

Jackie was a great host, and you can find her at the Waterways guiding website, as well as on Instagram, and Airbnb if you want a nice spot to enjoy a quiet weekend.
