Kerianne Brownlie is a nurse, a marathon swimmer, and one of the newest people to swim the Cook Strait.
In this episode, we talk about how she trained for open water swims using pools near her home, how the swimming community shaped her journey, and the role her partner played in supporting her goals.
We also explore the powerful connection between her nursing work and the mental resilience needed for endurance swims.
It’s a story of courage, community, and quiet strength, on land and in the ocean.
She’s living proof that you don’t have to choose between a meaningful job and an epic life.
