Double Episode!
I’m super happy to round off this 2nd season of the podcast with a brilliant double episode with the women from “Yorkshire Rows” - Helen Butters, Frances Davies, Janette Benaddi, Niki Doeg - a team of formidable working mums who “dared to dream”.
In rowing the Atlantic and setting a world record for the oldest women to row any ocean they set out to put more challenge and adventure in their own lives and make some incredible and unique memories to look back on, but at the same time they knew that by challenging themselves with this particular adventure they would inspire women and men from all over to find their own ocean and dare to dream too.
I think you can hear from the interview how lovely and down to earth these women are but also how brilliant they are at understating their own achievements. I hope you enjoy hearing us talk in this first part about how they got to the start line, what it took to say yes to the idea, come up with the money and who they met along the way.
