Unveiling adventure athlete, artist and children' book author, Emma Timmis.
Emma is this week's guest on the How Good Are Humans podcast. Emma has an awesome story, made up of many unexpected twists and turns. As an adventure athlete, Emma has completed a number of journeys that not only vary by location and discipline, but also by their levels of quirkiness. Included among them are two cross-continent runs in Africa, a roller skating journey in the Netherlands, and an ElliptiGo adventure across Australia. Her journeys typically go for months at a time, and she completes them not only for personal achievement, but also to raise awareness for charities and social causes along the way. After suffering an injurious setback, Emma has had to leverage different skills in order to exercise and satiate her ambitious psyche. As a talented artist, she has taken up the challenge of illustrating, authoring and starring in her own book for children; her goal is to inspire them to fulfil their potential and believe that they can chase after their dreams.
Among these topics, we talk about the practical and logistical nature to her adventures, and she shares some funny anecdotes as we go. We also speak about how her injury has not only impeded her physically, but also impinged upon her mental wellbeing also.
Emma is funny, energetic and thoughtful, and was a lot of fun to speak with. We hope you enjoy this episode!
