If I was to summarize my success, I would give so much credit to me following my natural curiosity.

The ability to capture a moment in life and save it forever, that was magical to me and still is.

I've definitely always been a bit more of an adrenaline junkie.

I like the person that I become when I

immerse myself in an activity that scares the shit out of me. The most influential moments in

my life have been when I have been closest to death. You know, the passing of my brother,

I tell people it was a slap in the face. It allowed me to understand the fragility of life.

Having that firsthand reminder that death is a reality of life has been a big guide in my life.

The thing that makes this life so special for me and what gives it so much purpose is the fact that there is a finish line, that there is an end date.

I like to sit in the discomfort

of knowing that this will come to an end because it makes me live fuller.

Hello, beautiful beings. Welcome back to the Know Thyself podcast where every single week we get the privilege and opportunity to sit down with a brilliant mind and open heart and sometimes a dear friend. Today I get to interview and have this conversation with a brother of mine. We just went on an epic journey together. And this podcast is going to be filled with so many nuggets of wisdom and lots of stories from our time together over the past few years, but also in particular the past couple weeks.

My guest today is Sam Culler, somebody who is a huge inspiration to me and millions of people around the world.

He's a filmmaker, a creative visionary, somebody that I see as a master of their craft. He is somebody that

really creates exquisite art. And the films that he's made in the stories and the evolution of

it also that I've been able to see over the past years has inspired me to dive deeper into mastery of

my own craft, into my own podcast, into my own videos and storytelling capabilities.

And he's somebody that I really look up to. And I know a lot of people do when people are

trying to create something that lasts beyond themselves and really can impact people in a big

way on the planet. And so without further ado, I'm really looking forward to this conversation.

Sam, bro. Thanks for being here. Damn I'm really looking forward to this conversation. Sam, bro.

Thanks for being here. Damn, brother. What an intro. Thank you so much. I really appreciate the kind
