Are you honoring your inner adventurer?

Today we explore that question in a powerful conversation with Ted Jackson — endurance athlete, director of the North Pole Marathon, and philanthropist known for his passion for extreme adventure.

Ted has run seven marathons on seven continents in seven days. He’s rowed across the Atlantic Ocean — twice. He’s crossed the deserts of Chile, raced through the streets of Sydney, and raised significant awareness for Multiple Sclerosis.

But despite these incredible achievements, Ted struggled to feel that he was truly enough. His journey through addiction, self-reflection, and healing eventually helped him realize that adventure isn’t just about the challenge — it’s about growth, resilience, and stepping outside our comfort zones.

This conversation reminds us of the importance of pushing ourselves, embracing discomfort, and recognizing that the spirit of adventure is deeply wired into all of us. I hope it sparks something in you too!

On a personal note — things are shifting a bit in my world. It’s summer, which means I’m spending more time outdoors, unplugging, and filling my creative cup. So podcast episodes may be a little less frequent.

Hello & Welcome to the Living Big Mindfully Podcast. I'm your host Kate Champion...

I am excited to share another inspirational conversation with you today!

Julie Lewis is a woman with a huge, fearless heart! Julie is an explorer, resilience expert, and bestselling author, with a passion for helping people thrive through connection with nature, awesome adventures, and mindful living.

From the UK originally, Julie now lives in the Middle East, where she runs an outdoor adventure company. She has led 70 global expeditions, and she has a particular love of the water…

Of course, we’ll dive into all that and more…

After connecting with Julie, having an adventure with her is now at the top of my wish list. I am so inspired by her energy, her wisdom, and her mission. I hope this conversation will spark something in you as well!

Quick announcement!

Things are shifting a bit here in my world. In a positive way. It’s summer, which means I am spending lots of time outdoors, filling my creative cup, and having my own adventures.

This means less time on social media, and our podcast episodes will be less regular…

This week, I have the pleasure of talking with sister duo Elora (aka Cal Grant-Smith) Canne & Jude Kurten. Elora is an author. Jude is an energy healer. Together they shared a sacred adventure in the Australian Outback and wrote a book: Sisters in the Outback: An Uluru Adventure.

They start out by discussing the significance of Uluru as an energy vortex, a living breathing, landscape, and its cultural and spiritual importance - and Jude reminds us to expect magic!

Then we dive in and chat about:

• The importance of grounding oneself by walking barefoot and the connection they felt with nature.
• Being open to learning and leaning in to absorb the energy of the natural world.
• How we can begin to let go of the small, everyday irritations and be open to the flow of life…

Elora and Jude also stress the importance of being intentional, slowing down, and taking our time as we move through the natural world.

This episode is full of wisdom, practical strategies, and sage advice to help us all connect with the magic that’s all around us!

Fun announcement!
