Travels and Adventures for Mind Expansio...

MISSION
About this episode

Travels and adventures can provide mind expanding experiences that accelerate learning and alter our lives forever. In today's episode, we highlight:

  • the 8 things that travels teach you
  • how to accept the call to adventure
  • ideas for low cost (or free) adventures to embark on

At our roots, we’re nomadic. For however long humans have been around, we’ve been on the move. Crossing land bridges, dodging global freezing and warming and other natural events… so exploring travels and adventures is really a call to get back to our evolutionary roots.

This episode is brought to you by Audible! To get a FREE audiobook, go to audible.com/themission or text themission to 500500.
