A marketing consultant and leadership coach, Nailah never thought of herself as an outdoorsy person. But when she found herself dealing with the stresses of building a new business, being a new mother, and living in a new state away from all her family and friends, she and her husband started exploring local trails. It was an epiphany. The outdoors helped her slow down, listen to her heart, and reconnect with her passion. It also inspired her to start Color Outside, an organization dedicated to creating a safe place for women of color to come together and create unapologetic, soul-stirring lives through outdoor adventures. With Color Outside, Nailah offers day-long workshops and multi-day retreats designed to challenge, inspire, encourage, and build self-confidence and community support for all women, especially women of color. She wants the outdoors filled with people of all sizes, shapes, orientations, ethnicities, genders, and abilities.
