114. Q&A with Meg
In episode 114 of the Outdoor Minimalist podcast, I am answering some listener questions. I sometimes get questions from listeners via DMs on Instagram; they’ll comment on a post or submit a question to my website contact box, or, more recently, I sent a form in the weekly newsletter asking what some listener questions may be.
If you ever have a question related to the show, please contact me! Some of my favorite interviews have come from listener questions because if I can’t answer the question, I am always willing to find an expert to answer it.
I’ll link the question submission form in the show notes, but the best way to stay in touch with me is to subscribe to our weekly newsletter at theoutdoorminimalist.com
