Episode 20 - What is the point of Bushcraft?

What makes us leave our modern conveniences behind, pack a rucksack and go live like a (well-equipped) homeless person in the woods? What is the unique value behind the teaching and learning of traditional skills? How do we market ourselves effectively as woodland leaders? I answer all of these questions and more as I unravel my thoughts on what the actual point of bushcraft is. The Bracken Outdoors Podcast is designed for Woodland Leaders from bushcraft instructors to Forest School practitioners, helping you build a life in the great outdoors. With weekly short episodes on all aspects of life as a freelance Woodland Leader, from business tips and advice to philosophy of outdoor education, as well as monthly deep dives into larger topics or interviews with inspirational professionals and leaders in the outdoor education space.Take the struggle out of setting up tarps with the Essential Tarps and Knots Course for Forest School Leaders, find out more at: https://brackenoutdoors.com/essentialtarpsFree Resources: + How to choose a tarp guide+ Forest School Activity Ideas PDF + The complete guide to setting your rates as an outdoor leaderTo find out more about my mission to help people Belong Outside, head to https://brackenoutdoors.com/
