Episode Description: Asia Bright, of Black Girls Hike, joins the podcast for Episode 2 to talk about the founding of Black Girls Hike and speaking lifers into existence.

In her own words: Born and raised in Baltimore MD, Asia has always had a passion for nature and outdoor adventure. Originally starting with a small group of friends, Asia often led guided hiking tours throughout the DMV to explore its natural parks/attractions, eventually extending to the northeast region and westward to the Pacific Northwest region of the United States. What started as a grassroots effort to bring more black people in her community outdoors to enjoy and participate in outdoor adventures, sparked the Black Girls Hike movement.

Black Girls Hike showcases the adventures of black women hiking throughout all areas of the world. Through storytelling content and curated hiking & travel experiences, Black Girls Hike creates a community of black and brown outdoor enthusiasts while diversifying the outdoors.
