Through his unwavering connection to nature, Gareth found strength and healing—both physically and mentally. This profound experience not only transformed his life but also inspired his debut book, a heartfelt exploration of resilience, recovery, and the power of the Great Outdoors.

Join us as we delve into Gareth's story of adversity and triumph, his passion for writing, and how the the outdoors continues to be a source of inspiration and healing. Whether you're seeking motivation or simply enjoy tales of the human spirit, this episode is not to be missed!
