@backcountry Trail Breakers 2022!! This is my second year being part of this group and I am still in awe of all the people here. This program asks the question “what does it look like to sponsor advocates instead of ambassadors/influencers?” Each one of us is the founder of a non-profit doing work to make our spaces more inclusive and accessible. Backcountry and @pattiegonia said instead of reinventing the wheel internally, why don’t we provide a salary, reach and resources to these people already doing the work we want to see happening in the world. It has been so incredible to have access to the people like @sarahjeanneisme who was the CMO to people like @dirtbagdreamgirl (my girl Jess) who is HR and so much more to @katielasak @sunn.kim and so many others who give us their time, their energy and a seat at the @backcountry to bounce ideas and our thoughts on how they can be a better company. It’s very very cool. I’ve learned so much from @rongriswell @agnesvianzon @josebilingue @queernature @queerquechua @herhopness @jujumil @jaylyn.gough thank youuuuuu!!
