  • 08 Frankie Dewar on The Confidence to Start, Overcoming Challenges on Day One, Coping with Severe PMT and Lessons from the Journey
    Aug 17 2021

    Frankie Dewar  joins me to share her experience from her 3000+ km cycling journey around the UK on a second hand bike after only having cycled a few times during lockdown. In this journey, Frankie interviews 51 Hikers, Swimmers, Horse Riders, Climbers, Mountaineers, Doorstep Adventurers, Stand Up Paddle Boarders and everyone inbetween. These interviews which she features on her own podcast: 'Extraordinary Ordinary You' covers the life journeys and antics of the people she interviews, hearing how they got into the outdoors and what it means to them, as well as big life questions. 

     We chat about the confidence and courage to get started, overcoming challenges on day one, coping with severe PMT and PMS, dealing with impostor syndrome and lessons from her journey.  ***

  • 07 Samantha Kendall on Growth Mindset and Facing Fears, and Breaking Stereotypes in Outdoor Leadership
    Mar 29 2021

    Samantha Kendall Bye joins me to chat about growth mindset, mountaineering and resilience, transitioning into freelancing, Female Leadership in the Outdoors,  the effect on Outdoor Expeditions during lockdown, anxiety management and more.
    Note: In this episode anxiety management is mentioned, I want to add here: Everyone's experiences and needs are different. What may resonate with one may not resonate with another. Selfcare also means: connecting with someone and you are not weak for needing support. Lockdown has hit a toll on many people's mental health and support systems have been cut off. We're all going through something, and it's okay to ask for help. You never have to struggle in silence. ---

  • 06 Roshan Daryanani on the Power of the Simple Joys, Dealing with Uncertainty/Intrusive Thoughts, Curiosity, and Reaching Out for Help
    Feb 22 2021
    We live in a society where we constantly feel we should be doing more, this idea of 'follow your passion' and 'find your purpose' which actually may encourage us to lose sight of the present moment and what really matters in life. We search for a purpose like we don't have one, when we already do. Roshan Daryanani joins me to talk about those meaningful moments that make life so fulfilling. Roshan is a maths tutor and writer. She loves chocolate chip-cookies, figuring out ways to have adventures every day and singing to herself. We will be talking about life in lockdown, the power of curiosity, how acts of kindness have more impact than you might think, and how easy it is to lose yourself when you focus too much on the end result and making a bigger impact. We also have the hard conversations: Dealing with uncertainty and intrusive thoughts, realignment, how to really empathetically listen to someone and reaching out for help.  Get your tea ready, buckle up, or get ready for your walk, and join us for this heartwarming conversation.
