"We travel not to escape life, but for life not to escape us."

Today's guest embodies this very mindset, this way of living life differently. And it's honestly no real surprise...

When you've traveled the world, experienced life in over 50 countries and stepped foot on all 7 continents you can't help but gain a greater appreciation for life.

David Axelrod is a 7-continent explorer and professional globonaut whose lifelong travel obsession has taken him to over 50 countries. He is regularly featured by travel and hospitality brands such as AFAR, Fodor’s, Exclusive Resorts, Matador Network, and Relais & Châteaux.

A sought-after travel consultant, speaker, and leisure champion, he helps freedom-seekers design their ideal trip. When he’s not planning getaways, he’s making smoothie bowls and frolicking with his bernedoodle in Seattle.

David's book, Get Away! provides the confidence and step-by-step guidance you need to design a vacation that is a truly transformative travel experience.

All of this and more is inside of today's podcast!

At some point in time. We will all be pushed to our breaking point, knocked to our knees, and left to feel as though the world is falling apart. This is just a fact of life. And it's this acknowledgement that life will have these hard times that has prompted today's episode.

Shawnie was featured in EPISODE 95 where we explored the tremendous adversity he has overcome and the truly impactful life he lives today because of it!

At the time I was set to record today's episode I watched a YOUTUBE video released by one of my favorite channels called The Smiths and was even more so compelled to speak of today's topic.

Their son River passed away in a drowning accident in their family swimming pool. The way in which this family has kept going, guided by their faith and inspired by the memory of their son River has been truly humbling to watch.

And that is why I felt so compelled that I mention them in today's episode.

Imagine if we all smiled a little more, laughed a little harder, loved a little bigger... Wouldn't that be a better place to live?

And even for someone like myself who is a genuinely happy person, I believe we all can benefit from a little extra attention paid to the subject.

I'm always trying to find ways to be happier in my own life, and I was recently inspired by the guest on Episode 94, Rob Dubin, to dive a little deeper into this topic of living a happier life.

CLICK TO LISTEN

1. What are some tips for living a happier life.

2. How can smiling and gratitude help make someone happier.

3. Why it is important to focus on one's own life and not worry about what others think.

Rob Dubin is a photographer and filmmaker who is best known for his work documenting adventure sports around the world. In 1993, he and his wife were stranded in a blizzard while on a backcountry ski trip, an ordeal that was widely publicized and led to a call from the President of the United States. After his wife made a full recovery, which is a full-story in of itself, the couple sold everything and spent the next 17 years sailing around the world.

They studied human happiness and fulfillment with both billionaires and barefoot villagers in 100 different countries around the world.

Today, Rob Dubin teaches people a recipe for happiness. For individuals this translates to more fulfilling careers and a happier home life. For corporations it stems resignations and transforms workplaces.

None of us know how we will react when faced with trauma. Will we be brave? Will we be the person who continues to be happy, always smiling, laughing, cracking jokes, even when face-to-face with our own mortality? Or will we close out the world and fall deeper into ourselves, completely absorbed by the horrific nature of our reality?

As you dive into today's episode I encourage you to keep this thought in the back of your mind... What kind of person do I want to be? How do I want to be remembered? Can I do it... Stand up strong in the face of life's most difficult challenges? It's only something you can answer, but I hope that today's conversation will really leave you pondering this thought.
