Episode 12: Sophie Storm Roberts

Creative Career Change

It was back in 2012 when I discovered adventure athlete Sophie Storm Roberts. I read an article in a magazine about the Three Peaks Challenge that she had completed with fellow adventurer Sean Conway and I was totally hooked.

At that time, I was a super keen cyclist and reading about Sophie’s achievements contributed to inspiring me to complete a triathlon in 2013.

Since then I’ve followed Sophie’s journey on social media. She left a promising career in sales with a tech start-up in search of adventure and personal challenge.

Not long after starting this podcast series, I suddenly had a thought that Sophie would be a brilliant guest. We didn’t know each other, but I thought it was worth a shot to drop her an email and see if she might be interested in coming on the Chez Hanny podcast to share her inspiring story.

To my complete delight, she said yes and so here it is!
