Jenny Blake is the author of Pivot: The Only Move That Matters is Your Next One. Jenny has been blogging at Life After College since 2005, quit her job at Google, and has spoken at places like MIT, Yale, and KPMG.... we've been internet friends since the launch of Under30CEO as two of the original millennial bloggers on the internet.

And if you think Jenny sounds like a workaholic, you're wrong.  Jenny doesn't check email after 6 pm, is an accomplished yogi, and takes off every January to live abroad in places like Bali, Indonesia or Chiang Mai, Thailand.

Jenny and I get into career moves yes, but also into where this intersects with mind, body, and spirit.  You won't want to miss her actionable strategies on plotting your next big career move.

Josh Salvo of ReddyYetti.com interviews me this week!
 
In a very candid conversation, I open up and tell my story of escaping the glitz and glamor of the NYC Startup Scene and headed to Iceland with my backcountry skis on what has become an adventure of a lifetime.
 
I share stories, tips, and advice like how: 
  • I lived in a luxury apartment on the 39th floor in Manhattan and traded it to pay $450/month in Costa Rica with no hot water
  • I had dinner with Steve Wozniak Co-founder of Apple when I was 20.
  • Found a way to meet Tony Robbins, Tim Ferriss, Robert Kiyosaki, and all of the world famous mentors I admire.
  • Spent the summer traveling across four continents doing shit I love.
Most of my time on the podcast I talk about cutting edge health and fitness techniques, how people can escape stress & anxiety, or travel the world without being a millionaire, but today I got asked to dig in about business strategy.
 
Of course, I work in lessons I've heard from Zen Masters or books I've read like "Let My People Go Surfing" by Yvon Chouinard.  One of the most valuable lessons I share is how you can build relationships with virtual mentors.  I regularly reach out to all my favorite authors, podcasters, and people who inspire me.
 
This episode is packed with lots of adventure for the outdoor audience at ReddyYetti and of course your weekly dose of geeky personal development.
