Meet Michael Beacham

Today we’d like to introduce you to Michael Beacham. 

Hi Michael, so excited to have you on the platform. So, before we get into questions about your work-life, maybe you can bring our readers up to speed on your story and how you got to where you are today.
I grew up spending most of my free time in the outdoors. Hunting, fishing, foraging, and hiking were all a part of the repertoire. It has translated into my podcast and outdoor media company, Mountain and Marsh. We do podcasts and video work on YouTube, Facebook, TikTok, and Instagram. 

Alright, so let’s dig a little deeper into the story – has it been an easy path overall, and if not, what were the challenges you’ve had to overcome?
It has been a struggle at times chasing a dream. I have spent a lot of time learning the ins and outs of media development. From recording and editing to quality control and social media growth tactics. There’s nothing easy about learning a whole new world. The end results and little wins make it worth it. 

As you know, we’re big fans of you and your work. For our readers who might not be as familiar, what can you tell them about what you do?
Aside from being a stormwater management foreman in the Baltimore/D.C. region, I am known for the media company. Mountain and Marsh has grown into a small yet successful outdoor podcast and YouTube page. We are duck and deer hunters first and foremost. I’m most proud of the organic growth I’ve experienced throughout the past year since the podcast started. I made it a point to make real connections with other people in the outdoor industry so that I built a solid foundation. Though it isn’t as easy as playing algorithms and buying followers, it means more to me to be authentic for both my listeners and the people I connect with in the industry. I’d like to think that my work ethic and dense knowledge of the outdoors sets me apart from others in this field. 

What quality or characteristic do you feel is most important to your success?
A prominent work ethic. I don’t take days off between my day job and Mountain and Marsh. I’m always scheduling, recording, editing, writing blogs, recording and editing videos, and setting up social media posts.
