Adventurer, writer, naturalist, explorer and presenter Steve Backshall joins WEM Founder Mark Hannaford in this World Extreme Medicine podcast. Steve talks life-changing moments and living life in limbo, as well as the potential impact of COVID on his career. The pair also consider the functionality of high performing teams and the impact this can have on expeditions. Crucial to this is communication and a shared cause - Steve details an incredible example of how clearly defined and agreed objectives resulted in swimming with Tiger Sharks in the Bahamas (and a successful day of filming!). Steve considers times he's pushed himself to the extreme, providing some edge-of-the-seat stories of swimming with crocodiles to almost drowning in Bhutan. Listen, watch, share and let us know your thoughts! Get in touch: Instagram @backshall.steve Twitter @SteveBackshall Website http://www.stevebackshall.com
