The Outdoorsman's MandateAuthor: Joshua Parvin
On The Outdoorsman's Mandate podcast, we will discuss our passion for the outdoors and share experiences that we have had in hopes of encouraging and inspiring listeners to get more out of life in all areas. For many, the lessons learned in the outdoors have completely shaped the way life is viewed. The idea of the "Outdoorsman's Mandate" is centered around the idea of taking a step. Everyone is somewhere on their journey, and the only way forward is to take a simple step. With that said, it goes even deeper than taking a step. The Mandate of an Outdoorsman is to find their purpose in life and make a difference. There is only one place to find purpose... so listen to the show and find out.
