Celebrate good times! December 5th 2023 marks five years since Seize Your Adventure - the podcast sharing stories of adventure and outdoor living with a focus on epilepsy - was launched. After a hiatus, to mark the show's fifth anniversary Fran is revisiting five monumental episodes.

Fran reflects on her interview with Becky Samson, who cycled across Australia while managing her epilepsy. She also recalls the episode where she handed over the reins to listener Frankie, who shared her own story about surfing with epilepsy. Fran also highlights the episode featuring Amanda Plomp, a long-distance runner with epilepsy, and her conversation with Jade Nelson, the show's first guest.

Lastly, Fran revisits the episode about the Outdoor Mindset Adventure Scholarship programme, which allowed her to travel to Colorado for their Summer Summit.

While the podcast's release schedule may be irregular, there are plans to continue producing episodes and sharing other relevant content.

I've delved deep into the archives for this one! Back in 2019, I had a taster session with Archery Fit as part of my 30 at 30 challenge. During the session, I learned the basics of using a bow, and afterwards I sat down with the co-owner, Roman. We had a little chat about archery, and in particular how it’s a very accessible sport for people with conditions such as epilepsy.
