"Catch You On The Flip Side" - Podcast with Richard Parks



Richard is a word-record-setting athlete, leadership consultant, executive coach, and former Wales international rugby union player. For almost a decade, his pioneering expeditions and projects around the globe have each left a scientific, social, or charitable legacy serving his community and country. His passion is human progress and creating learning opportunities for both young people and business leaders.

A proud Welshman, Dad, fiancé, son, and self-confessed denim addict. He is an award-winning author, a BAFTA Cymru nominated television presenter, a Board Member of the Sports Council for Wales and an Honorary Colonel of Gwent and Powys Army Cadet Force.

Richard has an Adventure Mindset that drives him to seek out and succeed in some of the world’s most demanding expeditions and environments. Following the injury which ended his rugby career, Richard first made history in 2011, becoming the first person to climb the highest mountain on each of the world’s 7 continents and stand on all 3 poles (The North Pole, The South Pole, and the summit of Everest) within the same calendar year. He completed his world first expedition named The 737 Challenge in under 7 months. A feat which has been recognised by the Guinness World Records and broadcast internationally.

In 2014, Richard became the fastest Briton in history to ski solo and unsupported from the coast of Antarctica to the South Pole, taking 9 days off the previous British record and becoming the first Welshman to complete this iconic expedition. His journey was broadcast on Channel 5, the series since shown in over 14 countries.

Richard has been identified as one of Britain’s most promising leaders, having been selected for the inaugural Franco British Young Leaders Programme pioneered by the British and French governments.

Richard’s strength is bringing people together. When not on expedition, he enjoys working with his partners and clients helping them to develop their teams and achieve their goals.

"Catch You On The Flip Side" - Podcast with Tim Millikin



Tim Millikin set out in May 2015 to cycle from Jacksons Corner in Reading to Reading, USA. The three-year trip took him 46500 kilometres through 39 countries. On his trip he discovered that “the world is a really friendly place”.



Tim talks about the highs and lows, literally and metaphorically, of his adventure. As he set out across Europe leaving familiarity behind and traversed eastern Europe, he learnt how to accept the hospitality of the people he met en route who invited him into their homes to share meals and their celebrations.



After cycling through the mountains of Kyrgyzstan and across China he turned south to Vietnam and south east Asia. From Cambodia he sent the Whitley Pump a photograph of a village pump.



From Singapore he flew to Australia where he cycled across the red centre and continued his trip to New Zealand.



Following a break in New Zealand he flew to Ushaia on the southerly tip of Argentina to be greeted by the strong winds of Patagonia. In the Atacama Desert of Chile, he did not meet or speak to another soul for six days. That is, until he came to a police post where he paused to cook the last of his supplies and was presented with the “best cheese sandwich he had ever tasted” by the officer on duty.



Then it was onwards and upwards north to central America. In El Salvador he was hit by a pickup and cracked his head open. He ended up in hospital for 11 days and his bike frame was broken.



After he and his bicycle were repaired the journey continued through the USA to Reading, Pennsylvania and the finish line at the Pagoda on Mount Penn and an emotional reunion with his parents.



Before the trip Tim Millikin worked in a travel agent in Reading, but now works in outdoor activities. He has contributed to a book ‘The Bigger Book of Yes and has realised a book of his 3-year cycle named “Reading to Reading: A Bicycle Journey Around the World”.

"Catch You On The Flip Side" - Podcast with Mark Smith



Mark had been in the army for eight years when the accident happened in 2011. He was overseeing training for a regiment on how to clear buildings in a temporary training compound made of wood.

Shots were fired towards a wall Mark was standing behind and he was hit six times in his right leg and once in his arm.

While he was being airlifted to hospital Mark flatlined several times, the longest flatline lasted for five minutes.

He made it to a hospital in Calgary, Canada, where his leg was amputated above the knees two days after the incident.

After two weeks in the Canadian hospital he was taken to a military hospital in Birmingham where was surrounded by people who helped him to refocus.

With his military career over Mark became a personal trainer, but soon realised that he needed something that was going to challenge him physically and mentally.

He soon took up body building and relished the competitive nature of the sport.

While he enjoyed bodybuilding he soon decided to push his limits even further and set himself the goal of becoming Britain's strongest disabled man, a title he eventually won twice.

After his accident Mark lost a lot of weight, dropping down to just 61 kilograms. While training for strongman competitions he weighed 120 kilograms, far more than he had ever weighed even before losing a limb.

But this came with some problems, the weight he put on while he was competing put too much strain on his leg and by 2018 it made it hard to walk.

Mark had also become very close with one of the men who saved his life in 2011, but sadly he took his own life in 2016. The impact of this loss was also weighing heavily on him.

When all of this came to the surface Mark reached out to someone in his regiment for help and credits counselling sessions with helping him to rebuild his mental health.

Mark has noticed a big change in the attitude towards mental health amongst soldiers and veterans.

Mark also plays amputee football and has represented both Peterborough United and West Bromwich Albion.

At first this was a learning curve, but he soon realised he was good at it and was voted player of the season in his first season.

"Catch You On The Flip Side" - Podcast with Sebastian Terry

In 2007, after the tragic loss of a childhood friend, 24-year-old Sebastian Terry stopped everything in his life to consider - if today was his last day on earth, would he be happy with how he had lived his life? He quickly realized that he was not and decided to put pen to paper and create a list of 100 Things that he had always dreamed of doing, hoping it would allow him to smile more and live a life with no regrets. He then set out on his personal journey to bring the list to life.

Little did he know that not only would his adventure change his life, but his 100 Things journey would hit a chord with a global audience and inspire people around the world to pursue their own dreams. He wrote a book, starred in his own show, and began sharing his story on stages across the world, but more importantly, Sebastian had started to help other people reach their dreams.

Sebastian’s true mission came to light after answering a request for help from a quadriplegic man named Mark who dreamed of completing a half marathon. Sebastian helped him reach his dream to complete the race by pushing him in his wheelchair the entire way.

This simple action changed Sebastian’s entire perspective and purpose. The secret was not just completing his list of 100 Things, but in helping others along the way.
