Summary

We all want to live a life of adventure, purpose, and meaning - but that's easier said than done. With each passing year, our lives get more full, more stressful, and in many cases, more complicated. How do you carve out a unique path for yourself and really discover your life's purpose?


On this week's, Yoga Talk Show, we explore the road less traveled and dissect the conventional in search of fulfillment. You'll meet, Chris Guillebeau, world traveler, writer, and non-conformist extraordinaire who will inspire you to live "a remarkable life in a conventional world" and to enjoy the trip as you search for a better, more fulfilling life.


Chris Guillebeau is an entrepreneur, author, blogger and speaker. You might know him from The Art of Nonconformity blog and book. He organizes the annual World Domination Summit in Portland each year and his other inspiring books include The $100 Startup, The Happiness of Pursuit, and his newest book, Born For This.
---------------------------------------------------------------
What You'll Learn:

  • How Chris traveled to 193 countries
  • How travel is for everyone (not just the wealthy)
  • Why the path of non-conformity is perhaps the best path
  • Me focus vs. service focus, which is better?


Nutritional Tip of the Week:

  • Is Green Tea REALLY good for you?
