21 Days That Changed Everything

Imagine heading off into the wild for 21 days with people you’ve never met, no phone, no comfort zone — just you, the outdoors, and whatever challenges lie ahead. For Kate Peddie, this was more than just an adventure — it was a turning point.

"The most memorable part?"
"The people." I never expected to connect with strangers so quickly and so deeply. Between the laughter, the tough moments, the late-night chats, and everything in between, I found a sense of belonging I didn’t know I was missing."

She admits the hardest part was stepping into the unknown. "Letting go of control was hard. But I reminded myself that growth doesn’t happen inside your comfort zone. I leaned on others, trusted the process, and came out stronger for it."

Now back home, everything feels a little different — in the best way. "I know myself better. I’m clearer about who I am, what I value, and the kind of energy I want to bring into the world. That kind of shift doesn’t happen every day."

Kate’s advice to anyone thinking about Outward Bound? "Do it. Go all in. Be open, be vulnerable, and let the experience change you. You’ll leave with more confidence, more clarity — and probably more friends than you expected."

Three words to sum it up?
Growth. Connection. Beautiful.
