Sometimes you just have to take a deep breath, spread your wings and just do it. It's scary. The unknown is staring you in the face, but the regret of not trying is greater than the regret of actually going for it. Brandy Schultz, founder of Adventure Nannies, and Shenandoah Davis, cofounder and CEO, took a chance on themselves; they pivoted as they built and scaled the Adventure Nannies. Their story is one of trial-and-error, courage, letting things go and figuring it out as they went along. More about Brandy: Brandy founded Adventure Nannies after 8 years of working as a travel nanny herself—cliff diving with kids in Italy, farming in Southern France, attending Burning Man, and learning survival skills in the Rocky Mountain wilderness. These experiences, combined with Brandy's background in education reform and gender studies, led her to create Adventure Nannies. Her passion for active families and dynamic visionary leadership has propelled our agency from its infancy into the high-touch boutique nanny agency it is today. When Brandy isn't at home with her son and two dogs, she's out on the road with her husband's band, The Lumineers. More about Shenandoah: Originally brought in as a small business consultant, Shenandoah joined Adventure Nannies in 2016 as Chief Operations Officer and transitioned to CEO in 2018. Shenandoah holds a Bachelor's degree in opera performance and English and, as a touring musician, has performed in 12 countries spanning 4 continents. She volunteers with Rain City Rock Camp in her free time and loves reading and preparing meals for family and friends. Shenandoah lives with her puppies Pawlina and Batman and rabbit Meatball.

Music has been a tool for expression for a long time, a way to communicate opinions, emotions and express identity.  In some cases, music has helped us rally against oppression, uniting us under and anthem of advocacy and empowerment.  Music can encourage us, motivate us, and help to transform us.  It can help us discover our voice, exercise our creativity and build confidence in ourselves and others. That is what Natalie Walker, Executive Director of Rain City Rock Camp, and her team strive to do.  Rain City Rock Camp uses music to empower girls, women, and gender non-conforming individuals to engage their creative potential through music, champion equity, and thrive in a community of allies and activists. Fin out more at www.raincityrockcamp.org or visit them on Facebook, Instagram and Twitter  Follow me on Social Media for up to date information.  You can find me on Facebook (@nonprofitluminaries), Instagram (@npluminaries), Twitter (@npluminaries),  and LinkedIn (@Nonprofit Luminaries)

Emily talks about her new pedal steel and Andrew makes fun of her. Then Andrew talks Ikea pedal board hacks, Emily talks about building guitars from kits and parts, and they say they're not going to talk for an hour, and then end up talking for an hour anyway. Whoops! Also, Emily expressed her love for firm, thick picks. And the Pavement song "Date With Ikea" was stuck in her head THE ENTIRE EPISODE.
