Host Baz Gray talks to Antarctica adventurer Wendy Searle about her epic solo expedition to the South Pole.

The world needs more adventurous women. Role models with the courage to pursue an idea. To see challenges not barriers. To say goodbye to their children for a while to go out into the world in search of the wind in their face, the mountain ahead, with broken nails and unwashed hair.

To show the next generation that you need to get out there, to take your slice of the action, write your name in the story.

And those women adventurers will show that you can do that at school, at work and at home; you can take risks, you can be responsible for your own destiny, you can choose your path.
