Summary

In this often divided world, what do we need in order to come together so that we can collectively work towards a more sustainable future? Across cultures and language barriers, what are some universal truths about happiness that we can learn and implement?

 

Sharing her wisdom here is filmmaker and Host of Alison’s Adventures, Alison Teal. With her unique upbringing (like a Tarzan child) and adventurous spirit, she's been named "The Female Indiana Jones" by TIME Magazine and "The Oprah of Adventure" by Huffington Post, and has also been on the Discovery Channel TV show, Naked and Afraid.

 

Let's dive in.

 

HIGHLIGHTS

[7:23] Kaméa: "What is one of the craziest memories you have from your crazy upbringing and living in the wilderness?"

[9:56] Alison: "Stories are the fabric of our world and our culture, so we need to keep sharing them."

[10:43] Kaméa: "How do you think your travels have shaped your perspective on the world differently than most other people?"

[20:16] Alison's advice for someone who isn't happy in their current life situation and wants to travel, but doesn't currently have the means to do so.

[24:27] Alison shares about the time she asked a shaman from one of the last tribes on earth what the secret to happiness is.
