Narrow boats and Wild Soul Coaching - meet Sarah Kent

Narrow boats and Wild Soul Coaching - meet Sarah Kent

Author: Gemma Plumb & Aisling Creevey December 4, 2024 Duration: 34:59

In this episode we chat to the brilliant Sarah Kent - a meteorologist and founder of Wild Soul Coaching.

Sarah lives on a narrow boat and has done so for the past 2 years, navigating UK waterways.

Her curiosity about the world around her as a child led her to science but she bas always had the soul of a philosopher.

We get a practical insight into life on a boat and how being a meteorologist comes in handy. But we also learn about what really means to live a sustainable life and to be in each moment of a day.

Through her coaching Sarah empowers women to live extraordinary lives, and to make decisions that put positive ripples out into the world. In this episode she also reminds us that time is precious.

Ever find yourself actually enjoying a rainy afternoon or wondering why a certain cloud looks the way it does? You're not alone. For the love of weather is the ongoing conversation between meteorologists Gemma Plumb and Aisling Creevey, who have spent over fifteen years forecasting across the UK. This podcast captures the kind of deep-dive chats they've been having for years, moving far beyond simple small talk. They pull back the curtain on what weather really means for our daily lives, drawing on a surprising range of experience. Their professional paths have seen them predicting conditions for everything from major music festivals and national rail networks to agricultural harvests and even ice cream demand, giving them a unique perspective on how the atmosphere connects to the ground beneath our feet. Each episode feels like sitting with two experts who are still genuinely fascinated by their subject, discussing the science behind a storm front, the challenges of a long-range forecast, or how a shift in the wind can change an entire industry's plans. It's a look at the patterns and stories in the sky, grounded in the reality of jobs, life changes, and a shared curiosity that hasn't faded. Tune in for a human take on the forces that shape our days.
