Author: Lena Göthberg December 15, 2023 Duration: 21:33
The race of a lifetime

Four adventurous women are preparing for the World's Toughest Row 2024. They will row from Monterey, California, to Hawaii. That takes at least thirty-five days. Listen to my conversation with Cassidy Hurd and Elaina Loveless, how it all came about, how they prepare, and their goal. 

Mission: "To be a competitive, energetic, and uplifting team who forms lifelong friendships, embraces the journey and emerges as champions. We strive to ignite a passion in young women, fostering their leadership in STEM fields and conservation. We envision a future where women lead the charge in devising solutions to preserve our oceans. As strong, influential role models, we demonstrate the power of women in sports and the workforce alike. Together, we will fearlessly conquer challenges, and face the waves with Full Foarce!"

Hosted by Lena Göthberg, the Shipping Podcast is a direct line into the vast, complex, and surprisingly human world of moving goods across the oceans. While global trade relies on this industry's immense scale and logistical prowess, the real story is found in the people who make it function. Each conversation goes beyond cargo and containers to introduce the maritime professionals themselves-captains, engineers, port managers, innovators, and strategists-whose unique backgrounds and on-the-ground experiences shape our connected world. This podcast delves into the practical realities of business, the nuances of managing global operations, and the strategies behind marketing an industry that often operates out of public view. Listeners gain an insider's perspective on the challenges, triumphs, and daily decisions that keep supply chains moving. It’s a focused exploration of a sector that is both foundational and fascinating, aiming to highlight the compelling careers and personalities that define modern shipping. Through these detailed discussions, the Shipping Podcast naturally builds a deeper appreciation for the coolest industry on the planet, elevating its profile one personal story at a time.
