Taking the Classics Outside with Amy Bushatz (E24)
In today’s episode, I am chatting with Amy Bushatz. Amy is a reporter, editor, runner, Army wife and is the founder of Humans Outside. Humans Outside helps inspire us all to get outside for at least 20 minutes, every single day. She is also the host of her own podcast, Humans Outside.
Amy and I chatted about SO many books in this episode, you can check the show notes below to verify that. But I am convinced that is what happens when two people who love books come together to discuss…books. In this episode, Amy tells us all about the science of getting outside as well as practical tips to doing it and her energy is contagious. Her book flight focuses on classic books from our childhood reading days and is guaranteed to strike nostalgia into your hearts. This is an episode you will not want to miss. Happy listening!
