    2. Ep2 Yugen Project - Jamie Miranda - Extreme challenges, adventure variety and mental health struggles

    In the second Yugen project podcast Yugen founder Grace chats to Jamie Miranda about his crazy challenges, having adventure variety in your life and his mental health struggles.  We chat about the crazy challenges Jamie has done both in the UK and overseas and what he has planned for the future. These include hiking, expeditions, running... and who knows what else! He also talks about being really strict and hard on himself and how he can't do things by half.  Jamie is an advocate for trying new things and gets obsessed with new hobbies but talks about how it's useful to have variety when he is recovering from injury.  We also discuss his mental health struggles over the years. Chatting about how he has coped during lockdown after being furloughed and trying to stay motivated and make the most of the year. He says how the outdoors has been his saviour and we discuss the extremely dark place he found himself in previously... Jamie is hoping that by being open about the topic, he might just help other men suffering from poor mental health and depression. What an awesome guy!   Jamie is such a genuine and lovely guy who wears his heart on his sleeve, which is why he is a Yugen ambassador! He has some epic achievements under his belt and we would definitely recommend giving this episode a listen.  You can find Jamie at https://www.instagram.com/jamiemiranda1/  Follow Yugen at https://www.instagram.com/yugenexplore/ or look out for new podcast episodes at https://www.yugenexplore.com/podcasts/ •• Please note there are sensitive mental health issues discussed in this podcast so please be aware if it may be a trigger for you.

    1. Ep1 Yugen Project - Marie Cheng - Diversity in the outdoors, sustainability and what it's like for an adventurer in lockdown

    In the first Yugen project podcast Yugen founder Grace chats to Marie Cheng about current topics.  We talk about Black Lives Matter and how we can diversify the outdoors and make it more accessible to all.  We also talk about sustainability and how as travel and adventure brands encouraging travel, we can promote sustainability and encourage people to think about their footprint more whilst still inspiring adventure.  You might be sick of hearing about it but we touch on Covid-19, lockdown and how being an avid adventure lover Marie has made the most of the last few months.  Finally we talk about Marie's favourite adventures, being a dog mum and what's next for her and Peaks Adventurers.  You can find Marie at https://www.instagram.com/mariecheng27/ or follow her brand at https://www.instagram.com/threepeaksadventures/ Follow Yugen at https://www.instagram.com/yugenexplore/ or look out for new podcast episodes at https://www.yugenexplore.com/podcasts/
