007: Road to a Million, Reality TV, Medical Career, and Life on the Edge with Jen Dorward

In this episode, we sit down with Jen Dorward, a fascinating guest who takes us on a journey through her experiences as an Advanced Nurse Practitioner and a reality TV star. Jen shares insights into her time on the show 007: Road to a Million, where she and her partner Beth underwent intense challenges and high-stakes pressure. From her military background to her resilience in the face of health challenges, Jen's story is one of inspiration and determination. Join us as we delve into Jen's incredible journey and learn about the life-changing impact she hopes to have on others facing similar obstacles.

Jen became a Nurse Practitioner to work towards her goal of being involved in expeditions, but after she finished studying, the Pandemic put all that on hold until she went to work in Guyana for International SOS.

Jen is currently working part time as an Advanced Nurse Practitioner in Urgent Care in a GP surgery, and also in Minor Injury Units and remotely for out of hours service, doing phone consultations. Jen is enjoying a little downtime before she finds another adventure.

Jen's career has largely been Primary Care based with Urgent Care, having worked in several roles with limited access to resources in emergencies - Prisons, Asylum Seeker Detention Centres, Christmas Island, in Afghanistan and on various aircraft doing Aeromed transfers. This is where Jen is at her best, having to think on your feet and deal with a situation with what resources you have available.
