Fran Chats: Adapting Adventures, Hiking in Wales and My Next Epilepsy Challenge...

Advocate for adventure and epilepsy awareness. Writer. Editor. Podcaster. Public Speaker. In this interview (of sorts) you get to hear more from me, Fran Turauskis. To celebrate the one-year anniversary for seizeyouradventure.com you asked me about my adventures, epilepsy, and more. I talk about: 

  • Finding the way when you’re lost 

  • Adapting adventures to your ability 

  • What having epilepsy has taught me 

  • The highs and lows of starting Seize Your Adventure 

  • Hiking the Camino 

  • Family hiking holidays 

  • What I say to those that tell me not to do something 

  • My next challenge - 30 Adventures in 1 year! 

And yes, I do say ‘three pikes’ instead of ‘three peaks’... I don’t know why. 

Questions: 

  • Dave Cornthwaite of Say Yes More 

  • Jade Nelson 

  • Christalle Bodiford 

  • Tiffany Webb 

  • Kathi Kamlietner 

  • Jordan Wylie

Seize Your Adventure
Seize Your Adventure
Seize Your Adventure is a multi-tool: a great adventure podcast that is also an epilepsy podcast.
From long-distance hikes in Europe to skiing in snowstorms, the storytelling episodes share life-changing journeys and the smaller moments spent between seizures.
The ‘chats’ with guests dive into the deeper stuff, the hidden aspects of taking on adventures with epilepsy - from carrying medication in a backpack, to assessing seizure risks in the wilderness and recognising limitations.
Plus we investigate the perceptions of epilepsy in society and the adventure community.
Hosted by Fran Turauskis Seize Your Adventure is part of the Tremula Network.
