  • Summary

  • In today's episode, I speak with explorer, ocean activist, and television journalist, Kinga Philipps.

    Kinga was one of the founding journalists and hosts of Al Gore's Current TV and since has gone on to host several shows on National Geographic and Travel Channel, most recently becoming the first female host on Discovery Channel's Shark Week.

    However, I was interested in talking to Kinga because of her deeper passion for ocean advocacy. This has led to her becoming a fellow at the prestigious Explorers Club, and becoming a Board Member of the non-profit Shark Allies, which works for the protection and conservation of sharks and rays.

    Kinga is also an avid freediver, and she spoke about how she first discovered her passion for the ocean on the shores of the Baltic Sea, discussed what she found to be the more spiritual aspects of being in the water, and described a profound moment with her sister swimming alongside a whale shark off the coast of central Mexico.
