Episode Four with Julia Goodfellow Smith: from bank manager to environmentalist, author and adventurer

Julia Goodfellow Smith is a self-confessed adventurer, speaker, writer, and author of best-selling books. But that’s not how she started out.

Originally a management scientist born in the era of Thatcherism, she became a small business banker but found the constraints of working in the corporate world made her feel like a square peg in a round hole.

Her desire for more freedom led to investing in a franchise helping businesses to reduce their energy costs. Meanwhile, the call she heard in her childhood from the Save The Whale advertising campaign always stayed in the background and led eventually to her developing an environmental career. A significant emotional event served to remind her that life is for living and a more recent health scare paved the way to becoming the best-selling author and adventurer she is today.

Tune in to find out why she has always volunteered, what it takes to write a book that publishers want to publish, and discover how walking the Camino Way changed Julia for good.
