Ep 27 "The Lessons of a Solo Travel Experience" with Andrew Chiou

Creating The Game

Today’s podcast is with Andrew Chiou. While I do enjoy podcasting older folks like Mark Sullivan, Johnny Sirpilla, or Linda Haley who have manifested wonderful businesses or life experiences over time, some of my favorite episodes are with people who are my age. Young people who are embracing the process of self-mastery. Andrew is one of those individuals in my life. I see this man at the gym at 5:30am each morning and have found that he is both incredible dependable and honest with himself. In this episode we talk about a mental transformation he recently underwent during a solo travel experience across the country. I find this episode valuable for many young adults who maybe just graduated and are traveling abroad for a couple months, maybe someone moving to a new city for an internship, or maybe just going through a new stage of life. I think one of the major lessons I learned through our conversation, was the importance of creating space and solitude in our lives and slowing down to the speed where truth and wisdom pierce our consciousness, where we can gain the perspective necessary to find meaning and purpose when our speedy lives return back to normal. I think many people aspire to taste the uncertainty of traveling to unknown places or planning a random travel experience, but Andrew made it happen and we talk about some of his major takeaways in this episode. Here is episode 27 with Andrew Chiou.
