Episode notes

North of the tree line, you can navigate a little bit easier because there aren't any obstructions. You don't have spruce and pine trees blocking your view on the arctic tundra. If i'm just south of the arctic, in what we call in canada the sub forest, then i navigate with the sun to make sure that i'm not going around in circles. In just using, you know, just trying to remember everything i see, which, if you spend a lot time in nature, is not too hard to do.

We live in a noisy world by any estimation. And while we need people, we also need solitude.

This week I’m speaking with Adam Shoalts, who was named one of the “greatest living explorers” by Canadian Geographic. Adam is an author, speaker, and adventurer who has learned to tap into the rejuvenating power of solitude.

In our conversation, Adam reminds us about the importance of the solo adventure in life to reconnect with ourself and rediscover what matters most. I hope you will feel inspired to create more space than you have right now.
