Adventure pushes us out of our comfort zones and into a solution-based way of thinking. It helps us challenge our identity stories – those beliefs we hold about what we can and can’t do, what we are and are not capable of.

I went from being a complete non-sailor, to sailing 20,000 miles double-handed around the Atlantic. Convinced I was never capable of undertaking such a journey, I found myself plagued by self-doubt and questioning myself at every turn. But the further I sailed from England, the more I realised that no amount of evidence would make me believe in what I was capable of.
