S13 Ep10: LUCY SHEPHERD ON HER NEW DOCUMENTARY AND THE ADDICTIVE ELEMENT OF EXPLORING

Monday Mile with Aimee Fuller

For the final episode in this series of the @Monday_mile_series, I’m linking up with a lady who is hardcore, from expedition to exploration, she has taken adventure to a whole new level… it’s @lucysheps

From the mountains, to the arctic, to the jungle, Lucy has quite literally done it all. We chat about her incredible adventures, why she does what she does and some of the amazing things she’s seen along the way.

We discuss her new @channel4 documentary series, ‘Secret Amazon: Into the Wild’ which sees Lucy and an indigenous team embark on an unprecedented Amazon expedition. The series tries to highlight the destruction of our planet due to global warming. Lucy and I chat about her passion for creating change, insisting that we need to do something NOW, in order to save the planet.

We also chat about the ‘addictive’ element of exploring and Lucy opens up about how vulnerable you have to be with your team mates and yourself, but also that it shows you just how strong you can be when pushed to your limit.

It was great chatting to Lucy this week, an incredibly strong woman with an even stronger mission…
