The Co-Host Takes the Chair: Meet Heather White | Go Wildly Podcast

The Co-Host Takes the Chair: Meet Heather White Episode 32 | Season 2 Ep 14 | Go Wildly Podcast She's been on this podcast since day one. Today she's the guest. Heather White grew up in Grants Pass with dirt under her feet and a dad who treated the outdoors like a classroom. Hunting, fishing, foraging, rafting the Rogue, backpacking into places without trails — that was just childhood. Today she's raising two wild boys, co-owns BikeKraft, works as a Rogue Valley real estate agent, and co-hosts this podcast. We talk about: growing up in Grants Pass, adventures with her dad, working off-grid at Marial Lodge, becoming a mom, public lands and Leave No Trace, faith and belief, and why Southern Oregon is the best place on Earth.
