How the Outdoors Helped Overcome Trauma with Heidi Stout

In this episode of the Soul Summit Podcast I get to sit down with Heidi Stout as we chat about her new role as co-host on the show as well as how she has overcome trauma through the great outdoors. 

Although this episode covers some incredibly hard topics, Heidi and I share insight and encouragement on the power of wild places to help heal the soul and 'refind' yourself. 

Not only has Heidi worked to recover her life after sexual trauma, but she has moved on to start her own non-profit to help others overcome their own traumatic experiences. 

I am so thankful for the heart and mind of women like Heidi and I hope you leave encouraged and excited to tune into her new segment on the Soul Summit Podcast.

Heidi’s episodes will air on Wednesday’s and will be filled with some of the outdoor and hunting world’s most bad ass guests!
