#57 - Oli Broom: He Quit Corporate Life To Cycle The World

Oli Broom left a corporate career at 29 to cycle from England to Australia following the Ashes, ran a charity in Rwanda, and went on to found The Slow Cyclist, a business taking people on journeys through some of the most remote landscapes on earth.


In this conversation, we talk about:


- Quitting a corporate job at 29 with no guarantee it would work out

- Cycling across the world on £5 to £10 a day

- Building a business that survived Ebola, COVID and a war in Ukraine

- How he dealt with the mental and physical impact of serious injury

- Why your twenties are the decade to embrace uncertainty
