Random Act of Kindness Day 2024. A Harvard and Yale study found the effects of kindness to be infectious. So much so that ONE random act of kindness goes on to impact 125 people.
And how it works - the recipient of the act of kindness is more likely to go on and be kind or kinder to someone else because of how you made them feel. And so the ripple effect begins. Improving wellbeing for all 💖
This is especially important when four people are living in very close proximity in an ocean rowing boat for days and weeks on end. 🌟
What random acts of kindness have you experienced or given to others?

Starting 2024 on a real high with the exciting news today that dryrobe® will be supporting us on our journey to the row the Indian Ocean in April 2025 🙂🌊 🚣
Not only will we be kept warm and dry as we start to build our training but dryrobe® like us believe that outdoor adventures should be accessible to everyone and will be helping us raise funds for the Wild + Brave Foundation, giving women the opportunity to take on incredible challenges that they ordinarily wouldn’t have been able to.
📸 Thank you to Emily Endean Photography, Great Pacific Race and Gretchen Powers Film for all the beautiful photography.

Community, connection and collaboration 🌟
Thinking of the .toughest.row fleet preparing to cross the Atlantic Ocean in a few days time and how when the odds were stacked against some of them, they have managed to overcome so much in this past week.

Some things in life don’t always go to plan first time round and there are some things out of your control. 🙃
Recognising these, adjusting the plan, regrouping and knowing we have it within us to come back stronger, more determined, better prepared and even more connected as a team is why we have chosen to delay our world record attempt to row across the Indian Ocean until April 2025. 🚣♀️
With the support from our family and friends and our incredible community of partners and supporters we have some exciting plans to share with you in the coming weeks that might just involve you! 🌟
Community, Courage and Connection are at the heart of what we believe in, it’s so much more than rowing across an ocean, it’s so much more than a world record, we want to help change lives and that is our mission to achieve ❤️

Spending 20 minutes in green spaces lowers cortisol levels, heart rate & blood pressure. 🌳
Being near or in water triggers our parasympathetic nervous system which reduces stress, anxiety and improves mood and creativity. 🌊
With 51% of Long Term sick leave, due to stress, anxiety or depression, we’re passionate about encouraging everyone to spend as much time outdoors in nature to boost your wellbeing. Whatever the weather, whatever time of year 🙌
It’s why we looked a million dollars after our Pacific crossing despite sleep deprivation, fatigue, exhaustion rowing 2 hours on, 2 hours off for 35 days! We were in the majority living stress free! 🌟
