S1 E7 - Deb St Cyr

Show Notes: Join us at the Oat Hill Mine Trail with Deb St Cyr, an ardent trail advocate, whose personal journey of healing and growth has been deeply intertwined with the great outdoors. Our conversation reveals how the pandemic rekindled a widespread passion for nature, as seen through the vibrant tapestry of runners, hikers, equestrians, and mountain bikers sharing the paths. Deb's transition from bookkeeping to trail advocacy, spurred by the Valley Fire's impact on her local trails, showcases the profound role these spaces play in community healing and resilience.
