In this episode we have a conversation with Gina Atkinson, an amazing warrioress with a 14 year military career, currently embarked upon a 5200 mile walk to raise money for different charities in honor of her late brother. In this episode we delve deeply into:

 * How her time in the military shaped her physical and mental skills & toughness early on

 * Her grief journey through losing her brother at the beginning of COVID, and how she chose to process her grief and honor his memory and spirit
 * Her 300 mile solo journey last year across Scotland and her thoughts on how loneliness affects mental health
 * Her current 5200 mile journey which is focused on positive mental health and connection with others and nature
 * Experiences of connection with her late brother through her journey
 * Embracing and appreciating ourselves every day
