Creating a Wild Life: When Too Much Adventure Leads to Disconnection

Season 5 · Episode 54

Wednesday, August 21, 2024 • Duration 48:25

Grab a drink for this one because Jen and Dyana dive into some deep and thought-provoking discussion on how constant adventure can sometimes lead to disconnection. This episode is inspired by our recent two-time guest, Tyler 'MAC' Fox, who wrote an article on something he calls the interesting-weird divide. We explore what it's like to share with family and friends about going off on the first big adventure, to what happens when family and friends realize that was not a "one and done", but an ongoing lifestyle. Relationships and perspectives change, but is it for the better? Tune in to find out.
