Each of us has a unique sense of adventure. What does yours feel like?
In this episode of The Gentle Rebel Podcast, I speak with Sarah Lister, who runs About The Adventure, a career and life coaching business that helps people connect with what brings them to life as they navigate change.
I love Sarah’s approach to this topic and how she holds each person’s needs within their unique spirit of adventure.
A Sense of Adventure
Use this episode as an opportunity to reflect on the distinct elements that make up your personal sense of adventure.
We explored the potential characteristics of adventure. For Sarah, it involves nature, spontaneity, a sense of challenge, and being somewhere out of the ordinary. But it also carries the openness to pause and breathe, to have the courage to stop walking and respond to the invitation of a particular moment.
Whether it’s stopping for a cup of tea with strangers or delaying a trek to photograph an unexpected deer on the hillside. There are a lot of juicy metaphors for life in this conversation and stuff worth reflecting on if you want to live a meaningful life.
Recognising Our Sense of Adventure
We might think of the “sense of adventure” as we think about a “sense of humour“. While it’s not a direct physical sense like touch, taste, sight, smell, and hearing, it’s something personal that keeps us in touch with what it means to feel alive and be ourselves.
Adventure is not simply about the thrill of the unknown but also about our relationship with perceived possibilities, obstacles, and the creative potential we see in the path ahead. It’s a key ingredient in living with a compelling sense of meaning.
In our conversation, Sarah and I talk about:
- How to find adventure in the landscapes and environments around us
- Sarah’s relationship with adventure and times in her life when her adventurous spirit shrunk
- The threads between imagination, daydreaming, and adventure
- When Sarah thought she was having fun but really was lost, and how she found her sense of self again
- Why adventure doesn’t need an end goal, destination, or quest attached to it
- The role of safety in a successful adventure (and how we can increase confidence amid uncertainty by carrying the right resources with us)
- How to keep the adventure going even when the particular journey ends
- And more…
