'Reminds you to live each day with meaning', Donna Ferguson, Observer
'A delicious adventure which will immediately make you feel less alone -- whatever journey you're on', Lisa Faulkner
The inspirational true story of how one woman went from unlikely athlete to record breaker, transforming her life in the process.
Jessica Hepburn hates exercise – she was labelled the ‘arty’ not the ‘sporty’ one at school. But in her forties, following a series of hard and heartbreaking life experiences, she decided to adventure her way from rock bottom to the top of the world.
Save Me From The Waves is the story of her extraordinary journey, from the streets of London to the summit of Mount Everest, fuelled by listening to every episode of her favourite radio show – Desert Island Discs. An amazing adventure set to a soundtrack of unforgettable songs, it encourages everyone to live big and bravely when life doesn’t go to plan.
