We sat down with Shyanne Orvis to welcome her onto the team as a Backcountry athlete and talk about her career as a fly fishing guide. Shy discusses becoming a mother and the importance of continuing her guiding career despite her new responsibilities.
Our host, Nils Mindnich, connects with Shy on the comradery that she experienced while filming the latest Venture Beyond episode. (Be sure to check it out if you haven’t yet!) Shy also depicts how fly fishing anchored her through a troubling childhood and how it helps her process hardships in all aspects of life.
