Inner Expeditions
Conversations about mindset, health and adventure. Delving a bit deeper with special guests to help us re-connect with ourselves and the outdoors. We'll also try and discover alternative methods to aid in our wellbeing. The show aligns with my own experiences after I started running to lose weight and resulted in me changing careers to simplify my life and overcome severe anxiety. Since then I've discovered that all round health is more than just physical fitness. I'll share with you stories and experiences with selected guests to inspire and motivate you to step outside your boundaries and try something new.

S2 E8 Andrew Strunk On De Stressing In A Busy World
I'm so glad to finally get Andrew in to record this episode. Andrew lives a pretty incredible life between being a full time firefighter, fitness instructor and (pre-covid) travelling extensively to experiences of all types from free diving in Raja Ampat to marathon running in the polar ice region.
On top of all of this he still makes time to volunteer as a member of the BackPacker Medics Disaster Response Group. BackPacker Medics are a non for profit organisation which has deployed to natural disaster areas such as Indonesia and Nepal to give aid in remote areas. It takes a special person to give their own time and money to help people wherever they are, without asking anything in return let alone be able to cope with such a busy and demanding workload.
Andrew has learnt over the years how to separate and give himself time to recover and stay relatively at ease, even after returning home from volunteering abroad in not so ideal conditions. What he has learned and developed now helps him every day and life in general as he negotiates life and work in todays's modern age.
I'm always grateful to catch up and spend time with 'Strunky' and I hope you enjoy and find time to relax listening to this one as well.
