Boyd Varty (@boyd_varty) is a storyteller, life coach and a tracker born and raised in South African wilderness at Londolozi Game Reserve. His podcast series, 40 days and 40 nights, is the most impactful content I’ve experienced this year. In it, he explores the archetype of the mystic in nature, how consciousness changes outside of the structures of modern life, and what it means to be wild.
