Our final guest on this series of The Escape Artists podcast is Alastair Humphreys, professional adventurer, author, and motivational speaker. From cycling around the world to an early foray into teaching, Alastair soon realised that making his passion into a career was possible. 

Alastair shares his lessons of accepting that change is not failing, the risk of eternal restfulness, and finding ways of bringing adventure into everyday life.

The next guest to join Dom and Skye is Meera Moynihan, corporate Escapee and Director of Operations at education start-up Now Teach. Meera’s journey began in the world of corporate consulting, followed by a move into government where she ran as a member of parliament, and to where she is today – helping others pursue a more meaningful career through teaching.

Meera talks about the value of enjoying the work you do and being proud of the organisation you work for. It’s a thought-provoking listen, packed with inspiration and ideas for using skills and knowledge learnt in previous roles and applying them to a purposeful mission.
