The Wild Edge Podcast

Through conversations with humans pushing the limits of exploration and human performance, this podcast seeks powerful stories from the wild edges of the globe, while exploring the tools, tactics and mental strategies used in the trade of adventure. How can we fully commit to the boldest goals? How can we overcome gruelling situations in hostile places? How do we balance internal motivation with external rewards? What revelations can we draw from our extreme experiences? These are just some of the questions I endeavour to discuss on the podcast. The Wild Edge Podcast is hosted by Oli France, a professional expedition leader and adventurer who has built a career guiding groups through the world's wildest places. www.wildedge.co Hosted on Acast.
