Catherine Edsell FRGS is an adventurer and global expedition leader. An avid naturalist, she combines her passion for travel and effective conservation through independent and collaborative expedition work in the most remote areas of the world. She is a trained PADI Divemaster, Reef Check Trainer, coral reef ecologist, mountain leader, jungle trainer, motivational speaker, and yoga teacher. She has 20 years’ experience working in all manner of terrains, often with her children in tow. Inspired by her immersion in stunning natural habitats, Catherine now leads a series of transformative adventures solely for women. Through travel to extreme wilderness locations, in close proximity to wildlife, Catherine designs expeditions that open up her world of adventure to any woman who wishes to seize the opportunity to step out of their comfort zone, push their own mental and physical boundaries, and in doing so, rediscover themselves.
In our conversation, Catherine talks about why she founded The Matriarch Adventure and subsequently her company Cathadventure and how she uses wilderness expeditions to help other women re-discover their adventurous self. We explore why the concept of matriarchy is so relevant to modern life, the importance of trust and where the boundaries between adventure travel, self-discovery and environmentalism intersect.
