The Solo Voyager: The UNTOLD Reality of 240 Days Alone at Sea & Unbreakable Resilience – Michelle Lee

In this episode, we sit down with Michelle Lee, an Australian ocean rower, adventurer, and resilience mentor devoted to exploring what’s truly possible when we follow intuition and commit fully. With a grounded, embodied approach, Michelle shares how a single book lit the fuse for an Atlantic crossing, how “saying yes and refining later” changed her life, and why disciplined focus can turn fear into fuel.

She offers a unique perspective on adventure as a spiritual and psychological practice; integrating breathwork, meditation, and mindset training (including the Silva Method, Vipassana, and teachings from Dr Joe Dispenza, Gregg Braden, and Bob Proctor). Michelle emphasises presence, surrender, and head-heart coherence as the foundation for courage and clear decision-making; especially when you’re hundreds of miles from anyone and the storm is closing in.

Michelle discusses creating inner spaciousness through digital detox and “disconnect to reconnect,” working compassionately with fear (“do it scared”), and building resilience through chosen discomfort. She also shares practical tools, like a simple 4-6 breath and checklists; that helped her regulate anxiety during a nine-day hurricane lockdown in a cabin the size of a coffee table.

Whether you’re on a healing journey, training your mind for big goals, or ready to bring deeper intuition into everyday life, this conversation is a heartfelt invitation to trust your inner compass; and take the next brave step.

Tune in to discover how Michelle’s story is helping others feel safe in their bodies, reclaim their power, and live from innate wisdom, plus awe-filled moments with turtles, sharks, seabirds, and a cathedral of stars on the open ocean.
