Brackish - S6 E6 Juliet Bennett & Yes, after Adrian Mitchell


Listen Later

In this episode, Katie speaks with Juliet Bennett, to explore how wild swimming, coaching, and nature combine to create powerful, transformative experiences. From the clarity of lake water to coaching on windswept beaches, Juliet shares her journey into blue health, her love for cold water immersion, and how outdoor coaching is opening up new ways for people to find purpose, hope, and connection.

"I added the word 'broken' to my brand because I needed people to know that there was space for them, however they arrived." – Amy Wilson

What we cover:

- Juliet’s first magical evening river swim

- Why lake swimming is her non-negotiable weekly ritual

- How volunteering as a water safety guide helped sharpen Juliet’s intuition

- What “blue health coaching” is and how it changes the coaching dynamic

- Real stories of coaching breakthroughs using natural landscapes

- The link between hope, purpose, and taking action in uncertain times

If you’re craving more meaning and connection in your life, this episode offers a refreshing perspective on the power of nature to ground us, shift our thinking, and bring us back to what matters.

A Poem For Every Night of The Year by Allie Esiri

What next?

If all this talk of defiant hope has got you wondering where you can find some, I have something for you. Cultivating Hope is my three-part mini-course and it’s the three steps I move through whenever I start to feel despair tugging at my edges.

You will move out of ‘fight, flight or freeze’ mode and into a calm and connected state, reconnect with nature, and find aligned actions that you can take now to keep you to remind you that you can make a difference.

In the current climate, hope is an act of defiance, and it’s one I hope you’ll take with me.
