Linley Lewis is the Co-Founder of Ticket to Ride, Wavelength Media and the Blue Earth Summit. 

Linley discusses how he came up with the idea of starting an action sports travel business with his best mate Will Hayler whilst studying at University. How they grew their travel company after their original launch with a 1000 mile road trip across South Africa combining surf coaching, community work and adventure. He talks about why they acquired Wavelength Surfing Magazine and how it became part of Wavelength Media and the pivot from his travel company during the global pandemic.

Food for thought:

• The value in travel is in unique trips and returning customers.
• Surfers, snowboarders, cyclists by nature care because it's the playground they’re living in. 
• Ultimately businesses are going to drive long lasting change.

Shelby Stanger is an action sports journalist and founder of REI's Wild Ideas Worth Living and Vitamin Joy Podcast.

Shelby discusses growing up in San Diego and how she got into surfing. Her career path starting as a journalist having one of the coolest first jobs out of college ever as a writer for the Vans Warped Tour to getting a corporate job inside Vans, a VF Company as the Women's Marketing Manager and then Vans International Business & Marketing Manager. Shelby opens up about mental health and wanting to do her own thing in the action sports and adventure world and how she started the Wild Ideas Worth Living Podcast and her belief that a little adventure is life's antidote.

Food for thought:

• There's this confidence that you get from doing outdoor sports that you can't get anywhere else.
• The definition of adventure is pretty vast. Everybody has their own Everest to climb. 
• Eventually, if you get rejected enough times, you start succeeding.
