In this episode, Courtney talks with Akehia “H2O” Jerkins, mother of two young kids and avid hiker. They talk about the variety of trails in North Carolina, how she keeps her kids engaged during hikes and she answers a personal question - What kind of healing does hiking provide?

More about Akehia:

Akehia is a waterfall-chasing adventure seeker. As an unconventional homeschooling mom of 2, adventures with her girls are a major part of their education. Residing centrally in the North Carolina, Akehia enjoys the close proximity to both the mountains and beaches, and she has a goal to complete NC’s 1,175 mile Mountains-to-Sea Trail within the next 5 years.
