TACO Tuesday! Take Action Crush Obstacles! Cursing At Mountains with Brandon Kowallis Today’s guest on the Warrior Servant Leader Podcast is a pondering goof ball of epic proportions. His eclectic tastes and interests have led him through his own series of bizarre experiences that have adorned his life and shaped him into the weird but relatively likable and sometimes dislikable character he is today. Brandon’s life is littered with mistakes, failures, imperfections, and other learning opportunities. He is a worldwide caver, what us old timers used to call spelunker. Brandon shares some incredible stories, including rescuing an injured caver from the bottom of Naj Tunich Cave in Guatemala. Helping with the viral Nutty Putty Cave attempted rescue of John Edward Jones. He was next to him when he died. Facing giant spiders in deep bad air pits in Mexico. Getting lost on Boulder Mountain. Laying down the first human foot prints in caves of the Grand Canyon Brandon is also an award-winning cave cartographer and photographer, author of the book Fragile Frontiers, and has worked as a leader in higher education for over 10 years.  He is the author of Cursing At Mountains, a unique novel that leverages the power of storytelling to share universal principles that are the core to both personal life and leadership. It is a story of burnout, marriage under pressure, and what happens when a high-performing professional quietly unravels. Brandon lives in Salt Lake City, Utah, where he draws inspiration from his work with diverse groups of people across all walks of life, as well as his experience exploring places where few people on earth have been. When he’s not writing or working on creative projects, he’s likely spending time with his wife Michelle and their two children, bushwhacking to find new caves, rock climbing, fishing, or serving in his church and community.
