Don’t you just love those podcast episodes that make you rethink everything?
You’re in for a treat because that is exactly what April Vokey brought to the table in this conversation.
I had the privilege of meeting with her face to face at iCast recently and we got to sit down and record this one live.
She’s got a resume that any outdoor person would be impressed by:
- She’s a fly fishing guide in British Columbia
- She spends half the year in Canada and the other half in Australia
- She’s never had a 9-5 job (she hustled until she could make a living doing what she loves: fishing)
- She runs the podcast Anchored, which is one of the most popular fishing podcasts out there.
Oh yeah, and she does ALL of this while being a wife and a mom!
In this episode we cover some heavy-hitting stuff, including:
- Children and the future of fishing
- Conservation (and whether you should keep what you catch or not)
- Women in the fishing industry (and sexuality’s place in it)
- Why the outdoors is more than just about fishing (and things you can do to experience the outdoors without taking from it)
- Leaving a legacy for your kids
- And much more!
I hope you enjoy this conversation as much as I did!
