During my Tea Round a couple of weeks ago I bumped into this rather chatty lady at the top of Robinson (pretty sure she was trying to beat us to the top). We then had a fun conversation about quite a few things - voom bars, poles and some of the hills we were going to climb that day (sorry it was in the lakes - Fells)

It was a little while later that I realised I had been talking to a bit of a lakes legend and someone I had heard about in various online groups, including a poles course the day after the Tea Round.

Join me as I have a fun and energy-filled conversation with Nicky where we talk about:

• How she moved from the corporate life to a calling in the fells
• The way that she built her business around an outdoor lifestyle
• The fun challenges that she has planned over the next couple of years and so much more
• Here are the discount codes we talked about:
• For 20% off Silva: HIKING-HIGHS-SILVA-20
• For 20% off Voom (my fave) HIKING-HIGHS-VOOM-20
• For Leki: 10%, but you will need to contact Nicky, and she will sort you out and offer lots of advice on sizing, fit, etc.

The Hot Takes:

1. Are you just going through the motions in life, doing what you (and others) think you should do rather than what you want (or need) to do?
2. Take a minute and pause to see where you get your energy from
3. How can we be more present and 'at one' with the outdoors and nature - not as hippy/woowoo as it might sound
