🎙️ Please make sure to click the 'Follow' the show - It really helps the show, Thanks!In this conversation, we journey with Alice Morrison—broadcaster, adventurer, and storyteller—as she reflects on what it means to begin, to belong, and to believe in something greater than yourself.LISTEN TO THE GULL EPISODE HEREAlice's pay-it-forward takes us to Uganda, where her heart remains deeply rooted. Through the charity S.A.L.V.E. International, she supports street children—some as young as six—helping them escape lives of addiction, exploitation, and survival. For £30 a month, a child is not just educated but given a future. As Alice shares, this isn’t charity at a distance—she’s met the boy she helped through school. He’s now a mechanic. He’s got a chance. And in Alice’s eyes, that’s what matters: that help actually reaches the hands it was meant for.Her call to adventure is equally grounded and urgent: stop waiting. Whatever’s been quietly calling you—Snowdon, a parkrun, a solo cycle—say yes to it now. Not when you’re thinner, fitter, or richer. Now. “You are good enough to do it now,” she says, with the kind of conviction that comes from having done exactly that, again and again. And she's right. Most of us already know what our next step is. We just need to take it.Along the way, Alice teases her upcoming BBC series Arabian Adventures: Secrets of the Nabateans, airing this June. Expect camels, ancient secrets, and Alice’s trademark honesty.Links & Mentions:S.A.L.V.E.
