In this podcast, my adventure buddy, Ray Cameron and I retell our experience of turning around on our attempt to climb Crestone Peak. Crestone Peak is Colorado's 7th' highest mountain rising to 14,294 feet above sea level. Colorado's has over fifty-eight summits above 14,000 feet and I've been on a quest to summit all 58 of them. Locals call these peaks "14'ers".

We decided to turn around on Crestone Peak, just as it started getting hairy. The rain and fog were serious. The rock was crumbly, slick, volcanic, moss covered cobble. To make matters even more interesting, […]

The narrative I tell myself everyday frames my Work Life Play. Every morning the tapes in my head begin to play. I used to think somebody else was responsible for those audio files. My High School principal told me once, "You'll never amount to anything". To be fair, I had just dumped dish soap in the biology lab fish tanks and suds overflowed to the top with dead fish.

Podcast bullet:

• If you don't like the work you're doing everyday. We can still choose to do it well.
• It is honorable just doing the hard work of staying alive.
• There is a lot of pressure in our modern world for our lives to be epic and big. Big and epic aren't helpful when you find yourself in a season of work you don't love.
• We see with our eyes what we believe we will see. Seeing is believing.
• How we operate in difficult seasons, says a lot about our core beliefs.
