*10 Feb 2024 marks 5 years since the first episode of The Outdoors Fix podcast!*

To celebrate this milestone, I’ve got a NEW PODCAST EPISODE for you of some of my favourite moments from The Outdoors Fix recordings over the years!

I’ve loved speaking to every single one of my guests, but the moments I’ve picked are some of the snippets that have had the biggest impact on me and helped me to make the outdoors a bigger part of MY life.

So if you’d like to listen, head to your podcast platform and I hope you enjoy the episode!

I’d also love to hear what your favourite episode has been and why.

I remember 10 February 2019 very clearly – it was a grey, drizzly day. I shared my first episode and then went on a long walk on the Capital Ring in London with friends to distract and shake off the nerves.

It had taken me weeks to make fitting it around my job, I’d freaked out several times over the recording equipment, and I didn’t know whether anyone other than my family would listen to it…

But ever since my 10-week Te Araroa hike in New Zealand after burning out, and how much better the outdoors made me feel, I’d wanted to learn from the people who knew more about it than me, and share their knowledge.

I hoped that perhaps the podcast could help us motivate and equip EACH OTHER to get outside and experience nature’s power more often.

Via 50+ conversations and episodes recorded all over the British countryside (favourite location so far was hiding from the rain in a sheep barn…), I’ve learnt so much about the outdoors, and I hope you might have taken away something too.

But most of all, I think what I’ve found most valuable from these past 5 years was discovering something incredibly simple – that even just 10 minutes in nature can make things feel better. It’s a tool that I wished I’d known about much, much earlier.

I’ve also learnt that the people who love the outdoors are some of the kindest, most generous and inspirational people I’ve met.

So thank you for all the support for The Outdoors Fix podcast since 2019 and to all my wonderful guests. What a ride it’s been!
