#034 Miriam Lancewood | How To Free Yourself From Society's Expectations

Hello beautiful people

On today’s podcast we have the powerful Miriam Lancewood. Miriam was born in the Netherlands. After completing her university degree, she worked for a year in Zimbabwe and then travelled to India where she met now husband Peter; a former university lecturer from New Zealand. Together they hiked over mountain ranges in the Himalaya, journeyed for years through South East Asia and eventually ended up in New Zealand. It was in New Zealand that they decided to give up all of their belongings and move into the mountains with a bow and arrow for 6 years, and subsequently in 2017 they left New Zealand to walk 2,000km through the forest of Europe, along the coast of Turkey and also ended up in the Australian desert. These incredible stories are shared in Miriam’s international bestselling books, ‘Woman In The Wilderness’ and ‘Wild At Heart’.

What I personally love about this conversation is Miriam’s energy and openness. I read both of Miriam’s books, which I genuinely recommend, and thoroughly enjoyed the depth and pure, raw storytelling that prevailed. I cried, I laughed and I reflected on some harder topics that as a society we tend to suppress and ignore. I speak with Miriam about the wave of emotion that certainly was felt surrounding her fear of doing nothing and of being alone, her experience of transforming from being a vegetarian to a hunter, the lessons of life and death that are learnt from being in a relationship with someone 30 years her senior, and of finding herself through the exploration of nature and connection with the wilderness.
