If you’ve ever wanted to rise and heal to a level beyond what you ever thought possible or thought you needed, then do we have the Blue Mind resilience show for you.

Today I’ll be talking with a dear friend and hero, the true keeper of the sea, Dr. Wallace J. Nichols about a topic that is near and dear to both of our hearts, rising from the ashes, what it means, how we do it, and why it’s most important to have a mission now more than ever.

Wallace "J" Nichols, the "Keeper of the Sea" and author of "Blue Mind" lost his house to fire. But instead of simply going into mourning, he's using this time and experience to be reborn, to see the world anew, and to see his life aflame with new possibilities. This is an incredibly inspiring, uplifting, powerful, and tear-shedding interview. If you're going through fires in your own life, literal or metaphorical, then this interview is for you.

Dr. Wallace J. Nichols is a visionary, entrepreneurial scientist, renowned marine biologist, voracious earth and idea explorer, wild water advocate, and the best-selling author of one my favorite must-read books and documentaries, “Blue Mind”
