Welcome to ⟪About that outdoor job⟫ podcast where host Charlaine Jannerfeldt has conversations with those who’ve made the outdoors their living, so you can too. We’ll share their insights, observations, tips and why not a few of their best adventure stories.
In this episode she talks with Dr. Lucy Obolensky, Expedition Medic. Lucy shared the insights she's gained through her extensive experience in expedition medicine in diverse environments from desert, altitude, jungle and polar settings and with projects like BBC's Planet Earth and Netflix's Blue Planet. Lucy shared with us how a girl from the UK found herself doing expedition medicine; her professional highs and lows as well as what she learnt from them; the importance of mental health in her role; and great advice for women considering expedition medicine but also for those who perhaps had to put being an expedition medic to the side because of family responsibilities.
She openly shares not only the upsides of her profession but what the challenges are on a day-to-day basis and has some great advice for anyone wanting to make adventure photography and filmmaking their living too.
