Episode #14: The Future is Bright

from The Grassroots Podcast Hosted by Dana Howe

In this episode of the Grassroots Podcast, host Dana Howe is joined by Hannah Mathews, of the Futurists Project, and Peyton Short, a recent Futurists grad. Together, we dive into how the Futurists Project is reshaping professional development in the outdoor industry by fostering purpose-driven leadership, mentorship, and cross-sector collaboration. We explore the importance of including small business retailers in these conversations, the “ah-ha” moments that happen when retailers and brands come together, and how mentorship is planting passionate specialty retail advocates throughout the outdoor industry. Plus, we share how you can support the next generation of leaders through scholarships, mentorship, and more. Whether you’re an industry veteran or just starting your journey, this episode is packed with insights, inspiration, and ways to get involved.
