Description
Connect with us on our new Instagram: @adventuremindsetpodcast
This week’s guest is Abbie Barnes; an award-winning filmmaker, fellow YouTuber & podcaster as well as adventurer, thru-hiker, long-distance cyclist, a huge advocate for mental health, and all-around LEGEND!
Abbie runs the project ‘Spend more time in the Wild’ which aims to inspire and empower people to enjoy more quality time outside for the benefit of improving mental and physical health and wellbeing, whilst building meaningful connections with the natural world and each other.
In this conversation, we talk about:
Abbie’s upbringing, her mental health struggles, and how nature quite literally has saved her life.
Some of her epic adventures include the time that she cycled from the very top of the UK, down to the bottom, via all 15 National Parks and their highest peaks.
We also talk about her chronic illness and how she refuses to let the daily excruciating pain of this, come between her and her life mission to ‘spend more time in the Wild’
