Sophie started out as any 22 year old graduating from uni and doing the 9-5 gig. She felt she was ready to take on the world, however struggled to find an outlet for it.

In this episode we are guided through Sophie's Kinabalu adventure race through the jungles of Borneo and how it was the standing point for a huge change in her life. She delves into her time spent in a team carrying out ultimate adventure challenges, including climbing the highest mountain in South East Asia and being helicoptered into the jungle with just a machete.

After a celebration party upon completion of the challenge, Sophie was absolutely buzzing from her newfound view on life and she just knew things would never be the same again.

We talk about all the many challenges that can come up when you battle in endurance elements and how to overcome the absolute lowest points that always inevitably surface. Sophie brings a courageous and heartwarming attitude and inspires us to truly create a life you love living every day.

Show notes

Extreme endurance adventurer Sean Conway is the first and only man in history to cycle, swim and run the length of Britain.

In 2015, Sean cycled 3,350 miles from Lulworth Cove to Scarborough on a bamboo bike. At Scarborough, Sean swapped his bike for running shoes and took 1.5 million steps to Brighton, where he did his final leg - a 390,000 stroke swim, across two intensive weeks, all the way back to where he started. The self-supported, 4000+ mile, continuous Ultra Triathlon was filmed by the Discovery Chanel and propelled Sean into the record books.

In this episode of the podcast Sean explains how he became an 'adventurer', how he remains focussed when competing, why he thinks high risk goals lead to success, how to make sure failure isn't an option and why accountability and proving the naysayers wrong fuels his motivation. This is a memorable and entertaining episode and Sean's message is powerful and provides a recipe for positive attitude and coping with setbacks. .
