The Less Trodden Path

What does it mean to take 'the less trodden path'?

Following your dreams can be scary. Taking the path not many others know can be unsettling. But if it's what feels right, if it's what you're craving more than anything else - why not?

This podcast is dedicated to untangling the world in a raw and honest way, to following your dreams and listening to your gut. Leave the fear & doubt behind, ignore the 'what ifs' and take the route you truly desire.

We speak with those who have both taken and/or are in full swing of their own less trodden path and hope to inspire you to do the same.

SEASON TWO, episode twenty-eight/nine/30/31 - THE FINAL

After a couple of weeks off due to the hectic nature that comes with something as life changing as MOVING TO A BRAND NEW PLACE(!), we've decided to jump back on to the podcast with a MINI-CAST e v e r y d a y throughout the month of August. This is a new chapter for The Less Trodden Path so we felt it necessary to document every day of our first full month living in Brighton (well, Hove actually).

These mini-cast's will be anything from 5 - 20 minutes long and you can expect to hear us update you on our daily going's on, raw and unedited!

Hopefully this will bring you up to speed with all things TLTP as well as inspire you to get outdoors, maybe do a hike, swim, run, make some oats and much more...

Enjoy hearing today's dose of The Less Trodden Path - THE FINAL EPISODE. We've been silent for the last 4 days of the month due to our festival fun and birthday celebrations so not only is this episode the final one of this months everyday mini-cast challenge, it's also a long overdue catch up of the final four days of August. We also discuss; how we feel about being at the end of the 'challenge', what we've gained and learnt from this challenge and what we plan on doing next (or at least for the month of September).

What a day too, all the fun with family! If you do anything today, tell those closest to you how much they mean to you :) 26th Minicast done and done!

Today's mini cast features some facts about chocolate and it's health benefits, the story of why we both don't drink alcohol as well as a little update of how our day's been.

Enjoy hearing today's dose of The Less Trodden Path - "All the answers are right in front of you." That's been the theme of today. What a day! We had a swim, a rad breakfast (of course) and then Benedict went busking. Putting yourself in the position of a busker is one of complete liberation, there's no hiding anything when performing on the street with nothing but your guitar and a microphone. Laura caught the scenes on camera and Benedict will be sure to be back at it every time the sun is shining and the wind ain't blowing. Enjoy our twentieth Minicast :)

Enjoy hearing today's dose of The Less Trodden Path - Just before a workout, the mind likes to play tricks. "This is going to be too hard, why not take it easy?" or "get ready for something too hard for you" - only, when you start the workout, you start to realise that although you're working hard - its totally achievable. You complete all 10 rounds and think, why did I think that was going to be so hard? Well, the same happens in life. We anticipate the future as stressful or difficult, only to find that it's a lot easier than we think. Even when times are tough, they soon pass. Today we go deep and philosophical, discussing how life happens in the moment. Just remember, the moment is never as tough as the mind thought it would be.

Enjoy hearing today's dose of The Less Trodden Path - "And they called it puppy love..." who else loves puppies? Hard not to eh! What's also hard not to love? Homemade granola of course. In today's mini cast we go through the recipe of Benedict's famous (kind of) homemade granola recipe. One of the simplest but most pleasing recipes, you'll never buy granola from a shop again. Simple, wholesome and nutritious. Puppy love indeed!

Enjoy hearing today's dose of The Less Trodden Path - On the 20th March 2020, Laura and Benedict went to their local pool and swam 2.5km. Until today, Benedict had not even been in a swimming pool but that all changed with a 2.5km swim with Laura V! A favourite thing of ours and actually where we met, the early morning lane swim is a natural habitat for both of us. Today we BOTH explored our local pool and swam 100 lengths together. We jumped straight onto the mini-cast as we walked home to record our post-swim thoughts!

Enjoy hearing today's dose of The Less Trodden Path - Everyday can sometimes feel the same but if you pay attention, you'll notice that every day is different. As far as Monday goes, this is one of those days where we don't need to pay attention to notice how different it is. Laura is spending longer in a pool today than she is not. The sun is shining here in Brighton and we sat down in the interim between Laura's shifts to talk about life, carrots and bicycles. What else would you want to do on a Monday afternoon?!

Enjoy hearing today's dose of The Less Trodden Path - Will Smith said 'the best things in life are on the other side of fear' and today Benedict has to face some fear to experience the better things in life. A good friend and his family came to visit us today and, upon waking up this morning before their arrival, one of the first things Laura said was 'do you think he'll want to go to the pier, or maybe even the rides at the end of the pier'... Benedict laughed and jokingly said he'd probably want to go on the biggest one. A few hours later, BOTH him and Benedict were sat on it, questioning A LOT. ENJOY :)

Enjoy hearing today's dose of The Less Trodden Path - a day filled with all sorts. It's the first beach day weather we've had since the move 3 weeks ago so we're appreciating it in all ways possible with a post HIIT and pancake breakfast bike ride followed by the beach for some sunbathing and ocean swims. As if this is our everyday life!

Enjoy hearing today's dose of The Less Trodden Path - Whilst walking to the pool this morning, Laura was listening to 'Goddess in Disguise' - a song from 50 Songs Written in 2021 by August Radio Project (you might know me as Benedict), she had the fantastic feeling that only occurs when everything in life is completely aligned. Happiness is when reality surpasses expectation, today that's where Laura V is at! So expect some positivity and uplifting vibes in today's mini cast, recorded whilst we prepped breakfast. May the good vibes resonate into your day. :)

Of course, there's another one of "Laura's Hot Take", listen in to find out what insight she has today. We're really enjoying these mini-casts and we hope you are too.

SEASON TWO, episode six.

After a couple of weeks off due to the hectic nature that comes with something as life changing as MOVING TO A BRAND NEW PLACE(!), we've decided to jump back on to the podcast with a MINI-CAST e v e r y d a y throughout the month of August. This is a new chapter for The Less Trodden Path so we felt it necessary to document every day of our first full month living in Brighton (well, Hove actually).

These mini-cast's will be anything from 5 - 20 minutes long and you can expect to hear us update you on our daily going's on, raw and unedited!

Hopefully this will bring you up to speed with all things TLTP as well as inspire you to get outdoors, maybe do a hike, swim, run, make some oats and much more...

Enjoy hearing today's dose of The Less Trodden Path - our first episode of not just this season but our whole podcast journey so far, that we've had to re-record... we had it connected to our bluetooth speaker, HOOLIO, meaning it didn't quite pick up our voices and made for a great 'aliens on the radio' broadcast instead. Either way, round 2 turned out to be a bit more fun with our first edition of 'Laura's Hot Take'... more to come!

Episode 25:

This week, Laura takes over the podcast with a good friend Liv who you may remember from episode 19 [https://anchor.fm/the-less-trodden-path/episodes/The-Less-Trodden-Path-Olivia-e113squ] to join her on speaking about and opening up on; VULNERABILITY, MENTAL HEALTH & BODY POSITIVITY. Three subjects that mean a lot to both, in their own separate way.

The Less Trodden Path is very much about inspiring others to follow their dreams... their mission... what they truly feel they are destined to do, no matter what that may be and what it may take. However, The Less Trodden Path is also very much about sharing the full raw and honest reality of the whole journey and what can be expected along the way - whatever the journey may be.

In this episode, Laura and Liv dive into their journey with vulnerability, mental health and body positivity, talking about their own struggles and how it's made them who they are today. Tune in to join their open discussion, and reach out to hear more, share yours or simply talk.

This week we speak with Mark & Sophie, also known as VanLife Eats, who share their journey from simple food lovers living in a van looking for recipes, to now food lovers living in a van who have created a much needed RAW, REAL & AUTHENTIC food blog and recipe platform for the van life community.

Recently reaching the business’ one year anniversary, Mark and Sophie share the process they have been through, alongside some ideas of what’s to come - including their first festival - the VanLife Eat’s big picnic, which is this August, and btw it is very nearly sold out so be sure to get your tickets! We also shared stories of our favourite van recipes, alongside cooking disasters for a bit of van life reality.

It was a huge pleasure speaking with Mark & Sophie, and we hope that you have a go at making some of the delicious recipes that don’t require huge amounts of space and equipment.

*A years worth of free yoga classes from his local yoga studio transformed Chris’ life from selling suits and €400 shoes in Sweden into barefoot hippie island life in Bali. It’s safe to say Chris has had an unexpected but magical journey so far.

After completing his teacher training in Bali, Chris never left and now has been teaching yoga and movement passionately ever since. Known for his fun, functional and challenging style with a focus on simplicity and curiosity, Chris has coined his custom style as the Fox Method. Applying his philosophies not just in yoga, but into his approach to life too. Sometimes life has you feeling set and ready, sometimes life has you in a mess, for Chris this is what it’s all about - Staying curious and asking questions without expectation of answers. This conversation was full of wisdom including a recommendation to ditch footwear all together…*

What would you do, if you were confronted with two men holding AK47s?

After speaking with Katy in our last episode, her partner Tom was super keen to share his journey and, after small talk of his 'hitchhiking with nothing but £3 experience’, we needed to hear more. Tom has mastered the ‘go-with-the-flow’’ vibe to what seems the max, making travel his life mission, embracing all the cultures the world has to offer alongside experiences that can only be found by throwing yourself into unique scenarios, ignoring the fear. Tom has only been stopping when money is low before setting off again once recharged. Now he’s taking on a new adventure in his and Katy’s van… next stop? Somewhere that makes a good story!

This week we spoke to Katy who reached out to us to share her journey in hope to inspire and help others. Katy opens up about her path so far, from her humble countryside upbringing to going through a relationship that she thought was normal, before finding out she was in fact experiencing abuse. Since finding the courage to take control of herself and her life, Katy has been on a continuous healing journey of reshaping her life; now finding herself living what she could only dream of all those years ago. Speaking with Katy was an eye-opening pleasure, shining light on a world we can so easily be unaware of.

Episode 20:

This week we came together for a raw and unedited talk about our journey's so far. This time last year we would never have guessed that we'd have done everything thats happened over the past 12 months. We can only equate it to taking chances and allowing the universe to work it's magic. However, it's important to remember that no journey is linear and there's ups and downs to everything; we are not here to paint a glossy picture, we wish to shine light on the whole story. There's been the highest of highs and there's been some lows but that's what it's all about! As well as us talking, Benedict got the guitar out to accompany the podcast with 4 songs he's written over the past year, all of which have a story behind them which he goes through on the podcast. We hope you enjoy this slightly different episode for podcast number 20 of the less trodden path!

This week we speak to Olivia, who is a kind and soulful spirit who came into our lives at the beginning of the year after taking up the offer of online yoga classes with Laura. Since then we have become close friends and shared many yoga practices, deep conversations and even had her Dad on to speak about his Less Trodden Path in last week’s episode. Liv’s unique upbringing has allowed her to see life in a different perspective which has led her to find a passion in massage therapy. She speaks of her journey on how she arrived here and how her past experiences have taught her that the unknown is nothing to be scared of. She goes by ‘liv in a van with matt’ on instagram because her and her partner have just finished building their home on wheels, which is nothing short of a master piece.

We had a magic conversation which left us feeling nothing but excited for Liv and her journey, especially that we seem to be involved somewhere in the plan. Here is Liv’s very own Less Trodden Path…

Daniel’s go-get, find-a-way attitude combined with his spontaneous go-with-the-flow nature made for an all impactful and energising podcast that we are sure will encourage you to expand beyond your comfort zone that little more.

This week is a very special episode. She’s the main voice of The Less Trodden Path podcast and she’s the very reason for its existence, Episode 15 is Laura’s story! From an early age, Laura was in water more than she was on dry land. She was the child who kicked and screamed about leaving the swimming pool instead of being too scared to get in. Her childhood was spent training to compete in swimming; training 6 days week sometimes twice per day - Laura could not get enough. Although youthful antics got in the way of taking her pool competition days further, she soon found herself sharing her passion for the sport to kids and adults alike. Then, upon meeting Benedict, ended up confronting her fear of open water by not only taking part in open water swimming events but coming in as fastest lady! Despite her love for teaching and sharing swimming, she found herself burned out and broken down due to years of an unsustainable work schedule and mental health struggles, so in summer 2019 she took control and decided to quit the job, listen to her body and take her own path. After being a little lost, she found some healing in travel and going completely offline from social media, taking time to figure out her next steps. The universe gave her the signs through a yoga class she was attending; after becoming a regular to a not-so-local studio, she realised that same love and passion she had for swimming in yoga itself - within no time at all Laura found herself in Bali on a 200 hour Yoga Teacher Training. Although the pandemic has thrown some barriers in the way, Laura is now on her journey to achieve her goal of working for herself, offering Yoga and Swimming Teaching - here is Laura’s very own ‘less trodden path’…

This week we speak with two of the brightest most energising souls we’ve ever had the pleasure of connecting with - Rita & Anthony. Not only did their bright yellow converted school bus grab our attention, but their positivity and sunshine vibes left us wanting to know more. Rita and Anthony share their less trodden path journey of leaving uni without much of an idea of what they wanted to do… other than not the jobs they had just qualified in, and avoiding the 9-5 life as much as possible. 6 years on, they’ve found themselves travelling the globe, finding jobs as and when needed to keep themselves afloat, and taking life ‘as it comes’, literally. To the max. They are yet to work that 9-5 life

It was a pleasure and such fun speaking with Rita & Anthony and hearing their very own less trodden path.

This week is a special episode. For our 10th Episode, Benedict dives into his very own 'less trodden path' story about his career as a musician. At age 11, Benedict took up electric guitar. After performing at his primary school's talent contest just 3 weeks after getting the guitar, having learned a very basic version of 'A Little Respect', he knew from that moment onwards that he wanted to perform and play for the rest of his life. Benedict made it his mission to tour the world through music and after growing up playing the local area, he moved to London to make the dream happen. From stories of playing the small London venues with crooked promoters to flying half way around the world to play festivals in different continents, this is a story of how putting yourself out there combined with a do-it-yourself attitude can make the wildest of dreams come true, and also how even if the dreams happen in a way that you perhaps didn't expect, that in the end what matters most are the stories that are made... here is Benedict's very own less trodden path.

We decided to reach out to Courts & Meeks to find out more about their journey to finical freedom from full time 9-5 work life in the Leeds and Newcastle cities, to living alternatively and travelling around in their self converted van. They share their roadmap advice from taking whatever steps necessary to live the life they wanted over the life that’s supposedly known as the norm, alongside their lockdown experience in Spain, extra voluntary work on top of their own work, rescuing their dog Sally and the return to the UK lockdown for Van build 2.0. It was a pleasure hearing yet again such an inspiring story into taking the leap to living life to the max, rather than work to the max and a little bit of life… here is Courts and Meeks very own less trodden path.

You may have heard about this hike before, however here is an upfront raw and honest story from Pascale herself, who took on this life dream challenge of hers in full swing, alone, with no stopping until the finish line, no matter what was thrown in her way.

As well as her story in these 4months, Pascale shares the effects of her journey once home and the main outcome she gained from the whole experience: you are loved, always. & everything you need, you already have.

Despite having solid foundations and a safety net around her back home such as work, a pet and a newly bought house, upon returning from Cambodia she simply could not shift the holiday blues and knew there was more there for her than a simple trip.
