Dear Readers,
I hope you enjoy my first Substack Live interview, which I did with the fantastic
from Freedom Focus. We got super deep into what motivated my big decision to give up my career for a years-long global sailing adventure, as well as how I’m navigating risk, uncertainty, and finances.We also explored more universal topics, including the minuses AND plusses of “settling down,” and how to work toward impossible-sounding goals with finite bandwidth. I hope you get something out of this wide-ranging discussion.
Timestamps to help you navigate the conversation:
0:00 — What I’m doing with Radical Paths
2:35 — The origin story of my crazy idea to buy a sailboat & sail indefinitely
9:25 — The 1-year journey preparing our sailboat
