Podcast #9: Central Asia Calling With Dr. Kate Leeming

Dr. Kate Leeming isn’t just an accomplished explorer; she’s also a passionate advocate for sustainability and education.

You might know her from her groundbreaking cycling expeditions across some of the toughest terrains on Earth—think Russia, Antarctica, Africa, and of course, Australia.

But there’s more. Kate is also deeply invested in improving prospects for female education, especially in some of the poorest regions of the world. She actively supports initiatives that empower girls through education because she sees it as a vital way to enhance community well-being and promote sustainable development.

So, join me as we dive into her incredible stories of exploration, including the ups and downs she’s faced along the way. Plus, we’ll lift the veil on her upcoming expedition into Central Asia, which has the thrilling promise of a world-first geographic discovery.
