It’s often been said that exercise ‘clears 
the head’ and that’s certainly been the 
case for Sarah Jolley-Jarvis (above) who’s 
found walking has been instrumental 
in problem-solving and making key 
decisions in her business.
“I made the decision to set up my 
own business whilst out walking with my 
husband, and since then we’ve talked 
through investments, product offers, 
changes to business structures and the 
direction of the businesses we own while 
out walking,” she muses. “I honestly can’t 
remember the last big decision we made 
that wasn’t mulled over or raised while
on a walk.”
Sarah says walking has been key to 
getting clear on her goals. “It really helps 
me think, process and come to a decision 
that feels right for me, my family and my 
business,” she explains. “We have two 
routes we love: one is for 'emergency talks' 
when life throws something at you that 
needs processing, and a longer route we 
do for planning chats; when we want to
talk about life goals, business direction
and family.”
For Sarah, the benefits are unparalleled. 
“Walking gives me clarity and the ability 
to really think, whilst taking away the noise 
and distractions of everyday life,” she says. 
“It’s a great way to get perspective on 
where you – and your challenges – fit in 
the world: there’s nothing like standing at 
the top of a mountain or large hill to give 
you perspective on how small even the 
biggest challenge really is, and what is truly 
important to you.”

For Megan Lomax (above), walking has
become a family activity that provides 
an opportunity to connect with the 
kids away from devices and day-to-day 
distractions. 
“In London, space indoors is always 
tight, so getting out when you have kids is 
a must,” says Megan. “With young kids, the 
painful part is the getting out bit but once 
you’re out, everything seems calmer. Now 
the children are older, a walk means time 
away from the screen and homework. It’s 
a great way to have a chat without tension. 
It’s not as intense. You walk along looking
