2:28 - Amber shares how her passion for outdoor activities started. It began with fishing with her grandparents and expanded to kayaking and paddle boarding. Despite her love for summer, she ventured into deer hunting, a cold-weather activity, which introduced her to the challenge of staying warm while being stationary outdoors.
5:29 - She talks about how she discovered Heated Core. Their products, which provide direct warmth through battery-operated heating, transformed her outdoor experiences.
