What do you learn after seven years on the road, traveling 20,000 miles on foot?

In this episode, host Kim Anderson sits down with Angela Maxwell, an inspirational speaker and global adventurer, who spent nearly seven years walking solo across four continents. Covering 20,000 miles and traveling through 16 countries, Angela shares the highs and lows of her journey—facing extreme weather, illness, and the challenges of sleeping in a tent wherever she could find shelter.

You’ll hear about:
✅ What inspired her to take her first steps on this life-changing journey
✅ The most difficult and rewarding moments of walking the world
✅ How solo travel reshaped her perspective on strength, resilience, and connection

Angela’s story has been featured in Lonely Planet, Outside, and BBC Travel, and her adventures continue—most recently, she became one of the first women to swim across the Caspian Sea in 2024!

If you’ve ever dreamed of long-term travel, solo adventures, or pushing past your comfort zone, this episode is packed with insights and inspiration.
