  • 2: #2: Kiko Matthews: Life changing challenges - overcoming illness and training to row the Atlantic solo (and break the world record!)

    Kiko Matthews shares her amazing story of training to break the world record for fastest Atlantic solo crossing by woman after overcoming serious illness. After suffering a pituitary tumour 7 years ago, Kiko decided to leave her job as a teacher, and start her her own SUP business before deciding to take up rowing in order to challenge the world record for fastest female Atlantic crossing. The path to training was not smooth sailing/rowing however - as you will hear in the intro. Kiko is a total powerhouse of ability and inspiration - choosing what seemed like a crazy goal, going out there and training to make it happen.

    Recorded in May 2017

  • 1: #1: Natural Yogi founder Eliza Coolsma: Career change and moving countries - training as a yoga teacher and creating your own business

    In the very first pod, Eliza talks about the process of changing career and moving countries. Eliza moved to Spain from the Netherlands via Denmark where she was working as a magazine journalist. In Madrid she created her own yoga, meditation (and now ayurveda)-based business, the Natural Yogi, and she speaks about process of becoming a teacher- from deciding she wanted to teach at age 21, to trying out her first classes with her friends to creating her own company. Eliza mentions how amazing it is to be part of the experience of watching people relax and feel good. She is passionate about helping us to connect back to our inner selves and to nature and its rhythms- which feels appropriate as we recorded this pod under a tree in Retiro park in Madrid!
