Lia Evans | Storms, Setbacks, and a World Record: Rewriting Britain's Coastal History
In this episode of Helping Organisations Thrive, we sit down with Lia Evans, the world record holder who, alongside her team, accomplished the remarkable feat of rowing around Great Britain.
But the journey to success was far from smooth. Lia shares her story of resilience, starting with her first attempt at the challenge, which ended in a dramatic rescue. She talks about the physical and mental hurdles the team faced on that failed attempt, what went wrong, and the emotions of being pulled from the boat after giving it their all.
Lia also dives into the valuable lessons she learned from that first setback, from refining her skills to building mental toughness. She discusses how these experiences shaped her preparation for the second attempt and helped her approach the challenge with renewed determination. Lia shares insights on teamwork, endurance, and the importance of adapting to the unexpected when you’re up against the elements.
Throughout the episode, Lia reflects on the hard-earned lessons she’s taken away from both the failure and success, offering listeners advice on overcoming setbacks and staying focused on their goals, no matter how big or daunting.
