概要

 Why do we think adventure has to be big to count?In this episode, I’m joined by Alistair Humphreys, one of the world’s most well-known adventurers, to challenge that idea. Alistair has cycled around the world, rowed oceans, and crossed some of the toughest landscapes on earth… but it’s not those big expeditions that have shaped how he thinks about adventure today.We explore what adventure really means in the modern world. Why it often feels out of reach, and how that perception might be the very thing holding us back. And why curiosity, not distance, is the real starting point.We also get into the difference between an explorer and an adventurer. The role of discomfort, risk, and uncertainty, and why those elements might matter more than we realise. Plus, how modern life has changed our relationship with adventure altogether.Alistair shares a simple idea you can try this week too. No flights. No gear. No complicated planning. Just a map, a random place, and a willingness to see things differently.If you’ve ever felt like adventure isn’t for you, this episode might just change your mind.In this Episode, We Explore: Adventure is shaped by mindset, not scale – it’s less about distance or difficulty, and more about curiosity and a willingness to see things differently.The biggest barriers are often self-imposed – time, money, and expectations can hold us back, but “microadventures” remove those excuses entirely.Discomfort is part of the experience – uncertainty, risk, and even a bit of misery are what separate adventure from a comfortable holiday.Less planning creates more possibility – when you loosen control, you open the door to surprise, serendipity, and the moments you couldn’t have predicted.Episode Timestamps: 02:14 - Microadventures Mindset04:33 - Modern Adventure Meaning07:38 - Misery Versus Holiday10:01 - Gratitude and Home11:44 - From Masochism to Curiosity14:29 - Plan Less Discover More17:23 - Serendipity Ice Cream Story20:05 - Try This Local Map Challenge22:10 - Books That Sparked ItLinks Referenced in This Episode:Alistair's WebsiteGot a Story Idea?If you have a mystery, legend, or adventure you’d like me to explore, drop a comment or email me at hello@lukerichardsonauthor.com.
