Summary

What does it take to break into an industry where very few people look like you? This week on the We Do This Too Outdoors Podcast, I sit down with Karissa of Countrified Glitz, an African American taxidermist from Oklahoma who is proving that passion and hard work can overcome stereotypes. We dive into how she first discovered taxidermy, what inspired her to turn it into a career, and the challenges she's faced as both a woman and an African American in a field that's traditionally dominated by men. Karissa shares the highs, the lows, and the lessons she's learned while building her business and staying true to herself. Whether you're a hunter, an outdoor enthusiast, an aspiring entrepreneur, or someone who enjoys hearing stories of perseverance, this episode is packed with inspiration, honest conversation, and plenty of laughs.
