Fly Fishing, Female Fun & Getting Women Outdoors with Meg Graham | Go Wildly Podcast

Fly Fishing, Female Fun & Getting Women Outdoors with Meg GrahamEpisode 38 | Go Wildly Podcast She came to Southern Oregon for the rivers. The rivers gave her a lot more than she expected. Meg Graham moved to Southern Oregon in 2016, found whitewater, then picked up fly fishing — and fell completely in love with it. She's also the President and Co-Founder of Southern Oregon Women Outdoors, built to help women get outside with confidence and find their people while they're at it. ⚠ This episode contains a discussion of a river fatality. Please listen with care. We talk about: how her family found Oregon and the outdoors, whitewater to fly fishing, nymphing and dry flies and swinging for steelhead, losing her kayaking mentor to the river, that one time Meg and her Instagram friend stole her new boyfriend's boat, where the confidence to start a nonprofit came from, female fun vs. male fun, work-life balance in corrections and courts, being a participant in your own life, being a woman of the water, and her favorite gear (Kula Cloth).
