About Your Host:
Samantha Scheff is a musician and nature based educator. She loves connecting the dots between the outdoors and music while helping people develop a closer relationship with nature. When she's not exploring, you can find her training for a triathlon, reading a romance novel, or snuggling her two black cats.
Audrey is a self proclaimed nature nerd, who can identify over 200 plants. She feels renewed by wandering in the woods, reading in a hammock, gardening, and dancing. She has created this group modeled after an AMAZING group she was a part of in Austin, TX called Women Empowering Women in Nature. She emulates that group's mission to bring women together and cocreate a supportive, creative, and uplifting space while leaning into the healing powers of the outdoors.
