KICPod

The wonderful Hugh van Cuylenburg is the only guest we've had 3 times on KICPOD, but it’s for good reason that we keep getting him back! As always, the founder of The Resilience Project provides some wonderful insights on how to protect your energy and say no to things you don't need to do, practicing what you preach and putting your learnings into every day life, and why it's important to choose truth over harmony. We also have a great giggle in today's episode about the amount of fangirling coming from one particular host, plus we put a spin on the 'Vulerabilitea House' segment that Hugh usually does on his podcast - we, instead, do the 'Hilaritea House'. * Check out Hugh's podcast 'The Imperfects' with Ryan Shelton here * Be sure to keep an eye out for Hugh's new show coming to Amazon next Feb called G.E.M.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

We thought Laura loved running… until we heard what Samantha Gash has taken part in! The endurance athlete and Survivor star was the first woman in the world and youngest person at the time to complete the Four Desert Grandslam – a series of 4 x 250km ultramarathons across 1 year in the world’s toughest climate deserts. She has also run 379km across Australia’s Simpson Desert, amongst many other incredibly challenging ultramarathons – so it’s no wonder Sam was once the subject of a documentary called Desert Runners. She is about to take part in another enormous feat, running 1600km from the West to the East of Nepal.
