For The Love Of: Trade-offs we make in pursuit of our passions

From 6-Figure Job to Bartending in the Polar World to an Expedition Crossing Greenland: Revisiting Katie Crafts’s Story


Listen Later

Do you find that when spring arrives, you jump into that buzzy energy too quickly and overcommit?

 

Same. 🙋‍♀️ In honor of slowing down our seasonal tradition AND to reflect on the past 1.5 years of this show, we want to revisit our very first episode.

 

Katie’s story is the ultimate pivot: from a six-figure job to bartending on an expedition ship in Antarctica, and eventually kite skiing across Greenland. But beyond the adventures, we dig into what it means to live a values-aligned life, navigate fear while chasing goals, and embrace the changing chapters of our decades.

 

Hear about:

  • The trade-offs of living a "raw, wild and free" life
  • Being a very fearful person who also faces risk
  • Planning intentionally for a new decade of life
  • Seasonal work vs. a 9-to-5
  • Begging to chicken sit

 

Our first episode still so deeply shares the whole point of this show: What are we willing to trade off in order to live our passions?
