In today’s episode, we welcome Bonnie Hancock to discuss her fear of regret, paddling around Australia, the preparation before her journey, her work beyond competition, mentoring, supplements she consumed during her voyage, crossing borders during the COVID-19 pandemic, and breaking the 24-hour distance paddling record.

Recently, Bonnie became the fastest person to paddle a surf ski 12,700kms around the Australian coastline.
