Mental health is not talked about as much as it should. This podcast is to have nuance discussions over the matter while tying in the outdoors, cooking and other elements as ways to better deal with ones struggles. By having these discussions and showing real people going through life and the outdoors, we hope to shed some light on this issue. All while showing how fun the outdoors and other hobbies can be.
