Come with me on an exploration of self-discovery.

On this podcast we decipher what really matters, as we unravel the chaos of day-to-day work

to learn how to build an essential life.

Welcome to the What's Essential Podcast, I am your guest Greg McEun, and I was just talking

to somebody just today who, when I asked them, what's essential for you that you're

under-investing in, said, solitude, time for themselves, time to think, time to meditate,

time to pray even, time to be away from all the noise of modern life.

You cannot relate to that sentiment.

We live in a noisy world by every estimation, and while we absolutely need people and to

feel connected, we also need in a sort of hybrid way space to escape, escape to think, escape

to focus.

And that is in short supply, unless you're Adam Schultz, who I have invited as my guest

on the podcast today, because he's like, he's like someone who has astued all of this

modern norms of how you have to live, of how it has to be, has been likened as a sort

of Indiana Jones of our times in a sense, but that itself doesn't quite do it justice.

But someone who, in a sense inexplicably, has chosen the wilderness as his friend, not

the only friend, but a friend, has chosen to go on the grand adventures, but to go solo.

We're going to get into the most extraordinary story, and I think you will not be the same

again.

As a result of this episode, you're going to learn the importance of that adventure,

that solo adventure in life, to reconnect with yourself, with what really matters most

to you.
