Welcome to the inaugural episode of the peaks to Paradise Podcast! Hosted by Joe Alexander, founder of Alexander Adventures, this episode sets the tone for a series dedicated to inspiring and empowering listeners through the transformative power of adventure.
Joe kicks things off with a heartfelt introduction, sharing his journey from a lifelong love of the outdoors to a 20-year career as a professional scuba diver, where he discovered how adventures go beyond adrenaline—they shape lives, foster connections, and open doors to new possibilities. This realization inspired him to create Alexander Adventures, with a mission to make adventure accessible to everyone, regardless of experience.
In this episode, Joe delves into the origins of Alexander Adventures, the power of stepping outside your comfort zone, and the incredible trips coming up in 2025—from budget-friendly treks in Nepal to luxury Arctic expeditions and classic challenges closer to home. He also gives listeners an exciting preview of his upcoming extreme triathlon, a monumental journey involving Everest, Lhotse, white-water rapids, and high-altitude biking.
Wrapping up with an invitation to join the adventure, Joe reflects on why adventure is more than just a trip—it’s a way of life. With future episodes promising stories from the field and expert guest insights, Joe invites listeners to connect, dream big, and explore the world of adventure with Alexander Adventures.
