Rusty's a life-long surfer currently living in LA with his wife and two step-kids. His journey so far is a fun one taking in quite a few stints living and working overseas, including owning coffee shops in the Philippines and personal training some big-hitters in London. Consistent In all this change and adventure has been his love of the ocean. The values he lives by and his approach to life are brave, loving and inextricably bound up with the wild.

In this episode we continue our series of discussions focused on using the wild to explore our truth and write our own story of life. 

We knuckle down and focus on the power of earth. Specifically, we dig deep into values in providing grounding in the earth element.

Values are our guiding principles, an internal compass by which we live our lives, shaping the kinds of experiences we seek and those we avoid. Values give us purpose. Without them we would lack a sense of meaning and perhaps lack motivation.  Our beliefs cluster around our values.  Consequently examining, changing or reprioritising values can have huge impact on our beliefs and consequently behaviour.  

We believe there is a key for everyone to unlock their truth and live wild.  Our intention is to provide a number of keys along the journey. So join us in this episode to explore what we mean by values, how we can examine, how we can challenge, how we can take ownership of them and with them live a life that is true to ourselves.

In this episode we're privileged to have a conversation verging on meditation with Sawang Thongdee in Thailand. Sawang's a habitual adventurer, usually on his bike, and one of the gentlest human souls we know.  Currently residing in Chiang Mai, Thailand, where he's working hard to establish a coffee venture called Nomad Coffee. His journey to where he is now is an interesting one. Born into a Thai christian family in a largely Buddhist culture spirituality is naturally just part of who he is, as is the science he has studied since childhood. The values he lives by and his approach to life are brave, loving, kind and inextricably bound up with the wild. A true Nomad and peaceful seeker, find out more and enjoy his ordinarily inspired story with us.

WATER

In this episode we begin our series of discussions focused on using the wild to explore our truth and write our own story of life. 

We knuckle down and focus on the power of reflection. Specifically reflecting on limiting beliefs, or as Roger Deakin would say “breaking free of the official version of things”. 

We’ll discuss our beliefs in the power of water to provide us with an opportunity for reflection, share some of our experience and introduce some powerful life coaching and personal leadership perspectives for you to use yourselves while walking your own path. 

We believe there is a key for everyone to unlock their truth and live wild, and by wild we mean in connection with our true selves and the world of which we are a part.  Our intention is to provide a number of keys along this journey.
