Motivated by a desire to explore and connect with people and wild places, Israh Goodall is a qualified Mountain Leader who is trained in Outdoor Environmental Education and who has travelled and hosted programmes all over the world. This has included travelling the Silk Road, trekking in New Zealand, the Middle East, Central America and Europe, and the Pacific Crest Trial (from Mexico to Canada). Israh has particular interests in Rites of Passage work and runs a nature-based mentoring programme for teenage girls. As a trained midwife she has worked with remote tribes in the Afar region of Ethiopia and in Zanzibar’s government and bush hospitals.
In this episode, Israh shares her passion for adventures and how they lead us to feeling awake and present in our lives. We discuss her work around rites of passage, in particular for teenage girls and how we can support them in transition from child to adult - and what we can learn from them too.
This episode is part of the a mini series with Adventure Mind - a collaboration of researchers, practitioners and organisations in the outdoor adventure space. Adventure Mind offers a grant, an annual conference and access to resources and evidence to support adventure practice.
Each episode shines a light on a current/ former speaker at the Adventure Mind Conference, their reasons for being involved and the benefits they have personally experienced from living life adventurously.
