In this recap episode, we meet Mark Agnew—Arctic rower, endurance adventurer, and advocate for mental health through nature. Mark takes us behind the oars of his record-breaking journey through the Northwest Passage, sharing what brought him there, what nearly broke him, and what continues to carry him forward.

As we reach the close of our conversation, Mark offers a powerful pay-it-forward: the Wilderness Foundation UK. It's a charity that creates structured, thoughtful access to the outdoors for people who’ve never had the chance—often with life-changing impact. Mark’s own recovery from deep personal struggle was shaped by nature, and this foundation echoes that belief: that green spaces can bring us back to ourselves.
Then comes the call to adventure—and it's a beautifully down-to-earth one. Whether it's the Pentlands, the Peak District, or the North Downs, Mark urges us to just begin. No perfect gear. No epic itinerary. Just go. A short walk. A few hours. A moment to reconnect. Because adventure doesn’t start with a summit—it starts with a step.
We also talk gear myths, London escapes, and the quiet resilience of starting small. And Mark leaves us with a teaser for his upcoming book There Will Be Headwinds—a blend of polar grit and inner reckoning, due out June 2025.
