Their conversation covers a range of topics, including Joy's passion for the outdoors, the challenges women face in the adventure space, risk mitigation and outdoor education, a few common mistakes in backpacking, and tips for staying warm and comfortable in the outdoors. As a certified NOLS instructor, Joy shares some of her wild experiences and adventures and the importance of education and mentorship in outdoor pursuits.
