The Most Important Word - Audio Podcast

In this episode of the Tough Girl Podcast, we meet&nbsp;Ebaide Joy Udoh, a bold Nigerian adventurer and storyteller on a mission to make history. Ebaide is currently undertaking a&nbsp;solo motorcycle journey across Africa, aiming to break the&nbsp;Guinness World Record for the Longest Journey by Motorcycle in Africa (Female). The current record to beat is 30,000 kilometers (19,000 miles)—and by the time she completes the final leg of her trip, Ebaide expects to reach an incredible&nbsp;35,000 km (22,000 miles). But Ebaide’s story isn’t just about distance—it’s about&nbsp;determination, vision, and fearlessly carving a new path. From learning how to ride a motorcycle from scratch, to building a DIY camper van, to navigating complex visa issues with a Nigerian passport, her journey is anything but ordinary. In this episode, Ebaide shares the&nbsp;realities of solo travel across Africa—the beauty, the bureaucracy, the culture, and the challenges—and what fuels her unstoppable spirit. We dive into her creative approach to funding her travels, her&nbsp;charity work empowering girls in Nigeria, and her passion for storytelling through content creation. Get ready to be inspired&nbsp;by this fiercely independent woman who reminds us all: “You own your life. Don’t let fear cripple you—go for it.”  &nbsp;New episodes of the Tough Girl Podcast drop every Tuesday at 7 AM (UK time)!&nbsp;Make sure to subscribe so you never miss the inspiring journeys and incredible stories of tough women pushing boundaries. &nbsp;Do you want to support the Tough Girl Mission to increase the amount of female role models in the media in the world of adventure and physical challenges?&nbsp;Support via Patreon!
