We’re joined by Tom Bridge, winner of BBC’s Race Across the World alongside his mum and NVNG co-host, Caroline Bridge.  We’re celebrating a big milestone — our first guest and our first partnership, YMCA Trinity Group, introduced by their Chief Operating Officer, Amanda Butterworth. Tom, takes us behind the scenes of an extraordinary journey that pushed him far beyond what felt safe or familiar. Tom shares the moments that challenged him, surprised him, and changed how he sees the world. Tom talks openly about fear, confidence, and the moments that changed how he sees himself and the world. We explore the pressures facing his generation, the importance of real human connection, and how shared adventures can bridge the gaps between generations.One of the most powerful parts of Tom’s story is how staying with a family of rug-makers in India inspired him to start his own business, Rugga Rural — importing the same beautiful handwoven rugs that first caught his eye on Race.
