In this episode, survival specialist, expedition leader, adventurer and author Megan Hine chats to us about her life and career, behind and in front of the camera. From her childhood day’s mountain climbing with her geologist father to her journeys through the Amazon meeting undiscovered people and cultures, we find out how Megan’s life has been shaped by her adventures.

From her first forays into mountaineering, survival and bushcraft instruction she has been fascinated by the way the human mind deals with the hostile wilderness environment. Megan has become fascinated with exploring the psychology of Survival, building resilience and an understanding of mindfulness through extreme situations.

Megan is also a passionate promoter of diversity in the outdoors and talks to us about the changes she’s seen in the way women are portrayed and included in the outdoor sector, why it’s important attitudes are starting to change and what she feels can be done to make her particular career path open and inclusive to all.
