Welcome to the 1000 Hours Outside Podcast.

My name is Ginny Urich, and I have a guest here today.

I kind of would have never imagined the CEO for 15 years of Outward Bound. Ginger Nailer, welcome.

Thank you, Jenny. It's so good to be here. The CEO of Outward Bound. Outward Bound is like everybody knows about outward Bound. Such an incredible program. Well, I in my mind had sort of equated it with

teens, but when I went and looked further, I mean, you're offering things for corporations and for schools. Like, you know, it's like you had said anyone who's human, let's get them outside. Can you give us a little bit of your backstory of how you ended up at outward bound? And then I want to dive into all the different things you offer. We're going to really specifically be focusing on, though,

this reset day, a nationwide reset day that's coming in January. But kick us off with, how did you get involved with Outward Bound? Well, so Outer Bound has a long story history, and I swear, every time I'm in the airport, somebody sees the logo on my shirt and they're like, Outward Bound. Yeah.

I, however, grew up as a kid that didn't know anything about Outer Bound.

So I grew up in a really rural community, middle class kid.

Camp was not a thing, but I was completely a feral outdoor child.

That was the values of my family, my community, my place. And so as I became an adult

and moved to an urban location and was looking for how do I get my kids outside? How do I get

involved? I was actually on a board that did an outward bound day. We did a team building day as

adult. So that was my first experience with it was coming to it and saying like,

hey, we're going to show up for this day. I remember it was raining that day. And they were like,

nope, we're doing this anyway. But it was such a game changer for me and that board that I sat on

that I kept my eye on them. And I was like, these are my people. They're the people who are trying to get folks outside.

They're trying to create adventure in the sense of freedom and ability to learn and experience

outdoors and learn about who you are through the outdoors.
