290 Best Of: How to Use ‘Nearby Nature’ to Get You and Your Family Outside (Zenovia Stephens)

One of the most frequent questions I get when it comes to heading outside is whether my family goes with me and, if so, how I get them out there. While the truth is that my daily outdoor habit is my habit and my family isn’t always with me, they often are. And I’m working hard to make going outside a part of who my kids are, just like heading outside has become a part of who I am.

So how do I make that happen? I lean into what we like to call “nearby nature,” that outside space that’s just where you are. It’s not complicated. Isn’t not hard to get to. It’s right there. It’s nearby.

But going outside as a family means everyone needs to sometimes reframe their expectations. In this best of episode Zenovia Stephens the founder of Black Kids Adventure tells us about her nearby nature and how she works with her own family to help other families appreciate it.
