Summary

We’ve taken Reroot on the road! Join us from our cozy cabin in Colorado where we sit down with Mike Corey from Fearless and Far, diving deep into fear—its impact, how to navigate it, and why it’s often a liar. We also go into science vs spirituality, how attending Raya & Louis’s wedding showed Mike a different way of existing, and the significance of rites of passage. Mike opens up about the challenges of balance a “normal” life with extreme adventures, his preparation routine, and feeling misunderstood.

0:00.0	It was just our 12 year anniversary and for my gift I picked out a paper clip chain necklace in Sydney.
0:06.0	But I was being cheap and I got a gold plated one because I didn't want to spend a lot.
0:11.0	And within...
0:12.0	It was a bad idea.
0:13.0	Eamon literally said, don't get this. And I was like, I really want a paperclip chain like they're all the rage.
0:17.0	I suggested quince.
0:19.0	You did, which is our go-to for high-quality essentials at a really

0:55.2	They also have so many epic options for your home, for clothing, like organic cotton sweaters,
1:02.0	linen bedding, organic Turkish towels, and 100% Mongolian cashmere sweaters. I feel like when we
1:09.0	had Frankie, we took our love for organic food
1:11.3	and we brought it into the home. When I was snuggling her, I just wanted to know that I was
