EP 125: LIVING A TRUE LIFE OF INTENTION AND PURPOSE -
WITH MINIMALIST COLIN WRIGHT
The Power of Friction: Pushing up Against what you Know in Order to Grow.
How do you personally define a successful life for yourself? Colin Wright is an author, international speaker, and the host of the Let’s Know Things podcast. Colin has traveled the world full-time since 2009. Colin featured in the popular documentary The Minimalists on Netflix because during that time in his life, he was travelling with everything he owned: - just 51 items carried in two back packs. Today things have altered slightly but his philosophies on the exile lifestyle remain. Respected as an opinion leader on Minimalism, his soon to be released book Becoming Who We Need To Be is about the challenges we face as societies, and how the decisions we make as individuals matter in those larger struggles.
Here’s what we chat with Colin about in this show:
