People Are F***ing AwesomeA series of illuminating conversations between pe Author: Jake Tyler
A series of illuminating conversations between people who have achieved something momentous. My name's Jake, and I recently completed a 3000 mile lap of the UK on foot, following a major depressive episode. Since my challenge ended I've become interested to explore the idea of how experiencing times of adversity can drive ordinary people to achieve extraordinary things.

EPISODE 4 - Pip Stewart
Monday, 18 June, 2018
My guest this episode is a writer, adventurer and broadcaster – essentially all things I want to be when I grow up (she is one year my senior). Pip Stewart has seen some serious SHIT! She cycled 10,000 miles from Malaysia to Britain, and has just completed kayaking the Essequibo River, the largest river in Guyana, with fellow adventurers Laura Bingham and Ness Knight; a world first! Pip, you don’t ‘half fit the bill... you are F***ing Awesome! Unlike my previous guests, Pip’s thirst for adventure and endurance wasn’t one born out of a personal crisis, it’s just in her blood! However the questions she puts to herself and those around her in her ‘Search For Happiness’ are very similar to the ones I put to myself, and after spending a fair bit of time scrolling through her socials I was compelled to make contact with her and invite her onto my podcast. In our conversation we discuss her time living wild in the jungle, how she was nearly bitten by a big old snake, and we delve into what it is to be human. We’re occasionally sidetracked by some local squirrels, but if anything they offer a bit of respite and comic relief between some topics that some would probably consider to be a bit deep. Not me, obviously, deep convos are my bread and butter. Anyway, I hope you enjoy this episode. Apologies again for the slightly sub-par sound quality, I can’t wait for the day when I know how to properly work audio equipment but until that day comes this is just how it is I’m afraid. If you’re enjoying this series then please subscribe, rate the pod and leave a stonking review on itunes, I’d really appreciate it! Thanks for listening, enjoy Episode 4!
