Description
"In the wild we remember who we are." Every episode is packed with inspiration, courage, passion, vulnerability, and a pure celebration of wild places. These conversations are about connection, and I promise they’ll ignite that fire in your belly for adventure.
If you love the outdoors, planning adventures, and that buzz of excitement of the flat lay the night before, pouring over maps, the joy of the road trip, celebrating the summits, scaling walls, the burn of the ice cold water or simply just being outdoors to breathe in the air with pals, this podcast is for you! I want to create that same feeling for you through each listen.
Think of Adventure Unfiltered as another step in your planning process for your next adventure, or simply just a way to connect with the outdoors when it’s blowing a hoolie outside and you’re grounded by the weather but still craving the wild and the feeling that brings.

Send a text In this episode of Adventure Unfiltered, Lorna Bray speaks with outdoor guide, former elite skier and entrepreneur Emma Norton about finding grounding through adventure and real life. Emma’s journey has taken her off-piste, off-road and, at times, fully on fire — from competitive skiing to building a successful outdoor guiding business, while balancing family, responsibility and life beyond sport. But beneath the speed and energy lies something deeper: connection, perspective and...

Send a text This episode of Adventure Unfiltered feels a little different. Rather than sitting down with a new guest, Lorna takes time to step back - revisiting the conversations that have shaped Season One and reflecting on what they’ve left behind. From the very beginning, Adventure Unfiltered set out to explore the human side of adventure - not the headlines or the achievements, but the quieter moments beneath them. Across Season One, those conversations unfolded in deeply personal ways. W...
Send a text In this quietly powerful episode of Adventure Unfiltered, Lorna sits down once again with adventurer and polar explorer Mollie Hughes - this time to talk about her solo, unassisted journey across Antarctica. When Mollie joined the podcast previously, the focus was Everest: fear, exposure, altitude and the constant external risk of the world’s most mythologised mountain. Antarctica is different. Flatter. Whiter. Quieter. And - in many ways - harder. Lorna knew the headline before t...
Send a text In this revealing episode of Adventure Unfiltered, Lorna sits down with adventurer and mountaineer Mollie Hughes - who was the first British woman to summit Mount Everest from both the south and the north sides. Lorna knew the headlines before they recorded: the records, the photos, the iconic summit shots. But she didn’t know the deeper story behind the climbs - the fear, the mindset, the exposure, and the quiet, determined psychology that carried a 21-year-old through one ...

Lorna didn’t know Sean before hitting record. She knew the headlines - the photos, the BBC feature, the vast Sc...
Send a text In the very first episode of Adventure Unfiltered, Lorna is joined by her friend and “everyday adventurer” Iona (@iona.adventuring) for a conversation that’s warm, honest and full of laughter - recorded after a sea swim and sauna on Scotland’s Moray coast. Together they look back at how their friendship began: from early hikes to a frozen sunrise camp in the Pentlands (complete with a John Lewis pillow stuffed into a tiny two-man tent), to Iona accidentally building an onlin...

From the quiet moments in nature to the bold journeys that push human limits, this is where the truth behind adventure finally gets told.
