EP 52 | From Drug Addiction & Prison to Becoming the First Person to Circumnavigate the World by Motorbike. Meet Steph Jeavons!
Description
This week we sit down to chat to the awe-inspiring, Steph Jeavons from Wales, who is the first person to circumnavigate the globe and ride a motorbike on all seven continents. She did it all on a relatively small motorbike ‘Rhoda the Honda’ and her adventure took her to 54 countries over 4 years.
In this conversation, Steph shares all about her personal journey that led her to be the kind of person that undertake such an impressive expedition… and it is not the path that most people would ever assume. It was her past of drug addiction and a jail sentence that ultimately led Steph to change her life around and pursue a life of freedom and adventure.
So of course, as well as speaking with her about her epic expedition, we talk about the mental fortitude that it took for her to change her life around and become the courageous woman she is today.
