I went to Japan for three weeks thinking I was taking a trip.

I wasn’t.

I went during the biggest transition of my life at 39 years old, a brand new rebranded podcast, a public pivot away from everything I’d been building for years.  I thought Japan would give me great content.  What it actually gave me was something I didn’t expect and couldn’t fully plan for.

In this episode I’m talking about what happens when you take yourself somewhere completely unfamiliar and everything you use to define yourself stops working.  

And what’s left is just you.

Note… my laptop died mid-recording so this episode ends abruptly.  I thought about not posting it.  But that felt too clean for what this trip actually was.

Out Loud.
