Did you know our primitive ancestors sat under dark, starry nights with faces lit by an open fire — kind of like a fireside chat? They would share inspiration, lore, battle decompressions, adventures, and most importantly... they would gain connection to one another. Creating cohesion and bonding is what builds the strongest of communities. I can’t wait to share my personal adventures (the good, the bad, the ugly with some humor and a dash of sass). There will also be some Norse mythological lore, education about fiercely navigating the great outdoors, and tips on how to level up your badass points in everyday life! So bring a horn of mead, a cozy blanket, and your wild ass heart! That fiery passion for life is about to get relit. I’ll meet you every Friday or shall I say Freyja's Day for that much needed big kid escapism right by the fire. After all, we need to slow down, be present, and have more fun!-Andrea, The Untamed Dame

Looking forward to more
Andrea has a “go get ‘em” mentality that’s contagious and inspiring. Her emotional intelligence is alluring and refreshing and you can tell that she puts the work in to her physical, mental and spiritual health and wants to share that with the world. I think it’s worth a listen if you’re into, or getting into, the the great outdoors or just want to listen to a gal pal share her story and listen to others share theirs too. The explicit content of this podcast is the cherry on top for me, hahaha keep it up!
Good stuff to come!
Can’t wait to see how this podcast develops!
Can’t wait for more!
Thanks for always being so inspiring! I can’t wait to hear more!
