In this episode, I speak to Liezl Gericke about her remarkable weight loss journey and unleashing her adventurous side during the COVID lockdown period. Liezl details how she lost almost over 60kg's from exercise, running events like the Cape Town marathon, and hiking in some of South Africa's beautiful trails. We discuss how she was inspired by Marie Kondo to unclutter her lifestyle, finances, and family life to live more intentionally. We unpack the Map Of Life Tool to help you plan and declutter your life so you can do the things that bring you joy. Closing off with some lessons that stuck with Liezl for life, she speaks about having their firstborn in her early 20s and having to reset their lives before her and her husband's careers took off and we learn about her philosophy on leadership and inspiration from Patrick Lencioni's books.   In this show we cover: 01:29  - Fitness and weightloss and becoming an extreme adventurer,  06:17  - Highlights from Cape Town marathon,07:57  - Going from running to hiking and discovering South Africa,  17:04  - Adopting Marie Kondo strategies to all areas of life, 20:40 - How to Marie Kondo your finances,22:45 - Planning techniques and tools to help declutter your life, 25:00  - Map For Life tool and steps to help you find purpose,   33:52 - Favourite failure and lesson that stuck for life, 39:45 - Key gems and philosophy around leadership shared with teams,  43:40 - My life's philosophy - Live Your Adventure, Did you enjoy the podcast?
