Listen in to an impressive pivot story from Matt Foulsham, who describes his dramatic career change as "the natural progression that I was always going to be." But how does someone go from engineering to safari guiding and feel like it was inevitable?

It started when Matt was sitting in a gray UK office during COVID lockdown, successful in his chemical engineering career, when a single question from a friend completely derailed his carefully planned, ambitious trajectory.

Despite having what most would consider a "good job," something felt off. An offhand comment during a safari trip sparked a radical reimagining of his future.

In this episode, Matt reveals the story of his career pivot and the surprisingly practical steps he took to test whether his romanticized vision of safari guiding could become reality. You'll hear about his intense year-long training—including walking alone for miles through the African bush each day, staying constantly alert to avoid lions and leopards. He explains why he describes his current work as a "privilege" rather than just a paycheck.

You'll discover how he navigated this life-changing decision and what it really takes to become comfortable being a beginner again in your late twenties.
