    Audrey Wikan on Drake Waterfowl, Faith and Hunting

    EP 55: Today’s guest is someone I’ve been really excited to sit down with. She’s the kind of woman who leads with heart, faith and grit. She’s the owner of DNA Social, a marketing agency that’s doing incredible work elevating blue-collar and outdoor brands and she’s also a spokeswoman for Drake Waterfowl — a role that fits her authenticity perfectly. Beyond the business and the brand partnerships, she is someone who’s deeply grounded in her faith and intentional about leading by His word, whether that’s in how she runs her company, shows up for her community, or lives her everyday life. She’s thoughtful, driven, and genuinely one of the sweetest souls you’ll meet — with the work ethic to match. I’m really excited for you to hear her story, her perspective, and the wisdom she brings to both business and the outdoors. Audrey, welcome to the show.

    Courtney Prete on Her Outdoor Journey + Soul Summit Podcast

    EP 52: Today’s episode is for the women who feel most alive with dirt on their boots, wind on their face, and a calling to something bigger than themselves. I’m sitting down with a woman who didn’t just fall in love with the outdoors — she built a movement around it. My guest is the founder of Her Outdoor Journey, a community that has become a home for women who want to learn, grow, challenge themselves, and feel empowered outside — whether that’s in the mountains, the field, the woods, or simply reconnecting with who they are when they step away from the noise. In this episode, we unpack the story behind how Her Outdoor Journey began, the purpose that fueled it, and the moments that made it all worth it. We talk about building a brand rooted in values, creating spaces where women feel capable and confident, and what it really takes to grow something meaningful from the ground up. We also dive into our guest’s podcast, Soul Summit — a space for intentional outdoor storytelling, deep conversations, and grounding perspectives that leave you feeling more connected than when you pressed play. This conversation is honest, thoughtful, and powerful. If you’ve ever felt the pull toward the outdoors, community, or living a life aligned with purpose — this one is for you. Please welcome the woman behind it all, Courtney Prete. Connect with Courtney: @courtney__prete @heroutdoorjourney_ @soulsummitpod_ Connect with Victoria: @shegoesbeyondthe8 @victoriafriedges

    EP 48: Samantha Nicoletta on a Life in the Outdoors with TWO Under TWO

    Motherhood didn’t pull today's guest out of the woods—it pushed her deeper into them. She is redefining what motherhood in the outdoors looks like. Refusing to let motherhood slow her down, she’s letting it fuel her. With two girls under two years old, she’s hiking, hunting, and building a thriving business while showing her daughters that the outdoors belongs to them too. We talk about how she makes it happen, scent control, her 2025 archery buck, and what it really looks like to live an entrepreneurial life in the woods and at home.
