The Adventure Mum
Motherhood is the ultimate adventure — and it’s only just getting started. I’m Philippa Bowman — Mum of 3, Personal trainer, and Outdoor addict. In 2023, my husband and I sold our house, grabbed our kids, and spent a year chasing mountains, sunsets, and wild places around the world. Now, I’m here to help you tap into your own wild spirit. Each episode, you’ll hear travel hacks & fails, camping advice, real-world fitness tips, plus stories from badass mums who choose trails over treadmills — and all the inspiration you need to get outside with your kids in tow. Adventure doesn’t stop when you become a mum — it gets even better. Let’s get wild together.
