#16: Chatty With Mr. Natty: Finding Your Trade, Opening Your Mind & Keeping Life Mixed Up


Listen Later

On this episode I sat down with Mr. Natty (@mrnattyofficial), one of the most interesting people I know. It’s hard to put him in a box, in fact you can’t, but he’s a men’s hair stylist, entrepreneur, world traveler, and even a permaculturalist with loads of stories and lil life hacks to keep you balanced and on your toes.
I wanted to have a chatty with Natty, because literally every time I chat with him he drops a little seedling of wisdom that inspires new ideas, practices, and even travels. A few years back he was giving me a cut when we struck up a conversation about India...which rekindled the fire within me to get out and go travel the orient myself. Since then we’ve been in touch pushing each other along, and I’m excited to bring you the latest and greatest from the man himself.
In this episode we chat about: the importance of keeping things mixed up in life - from routine to environment to food, his journey from growing up in London to living on a farm, becoming a surfer, diving into the world of meditation, and building a career traveling around the world cutting hair and building a brand.
Natty shares some stories from his days roaming India, working with top fashion icons in Europe, taking on New York City, and experimenting with new ways to level up men’s grooming into a more conscious and sustainable ecosystem of products and experiences. We even touch on some real tangible ways to keep things exciting and fun as most the globe is still on some sort of lock down.
There’s a lot of uncertainty in the world right now with civic-19c but we have some great laughs and share some deep insights that are bound to give you a lil boost and open your mind to some possibilities these next few days, weeks, and months.
So without further ado, here’s the one and only, Mr. Natty!
