What does training and competing in mountain biking bring to our lives? What does it mean to have our "why" be "just because..."? How can we discover space and meaning through our breath? What is it like when you are "in the soup" and not "thinking about or judging the soup"?

This week's episode is with the incredibly insightful mountain biker, filmmaker, all around AWESOME human being James Adamson!!!

James is a person I look up to and turn to when in need of wonderful, thought provoking conversations that help put into perspective obstacles I'm working through. 

This episode is a great conversation about what he discovered through diving full on back into biking this summer and how those athletic endeavors and adventures can help us navigate our own experiences through the world!

I hope you enjoy the episode and find as many nuggets of wisdom as I did when we recorded!! Thanks James!!

"We are meant to seek, engage, be filled up with wisdom from sources far more attuned to the truth than ourselves" - Paul Scheuring, The Far Shore

Paul Scheuring is an author, a filmmaker, a show runner, and a screenwriter.

More importantly, Paul is my friend, a mentor, a smart-guy-I-talk-to-in-order-to-make-sense-of-the-world, a fellow adventurer, a dude who likes to surf, a father, and someone who encourages folks to chase their dreams!

In this episode we dive into a deep discussion about creativity and the process of how one expresses themselves. We base this chat around his novel "The Far Shore", a deeply meaningful novel Paul wrote a few years back. 

I've always been a fan of Paul as a person but now that I've read a couple things he has written I'm a HUGE fan of Paul as a writer!! I HIGHLY recommend this book!! 

"Some fundamental thing drives us, and we cannot catch a direct glimpse of it. But it must be an unease, for if it was anything otherwise, a calmness, a contentment, we would not search so furiously as a species for an answer to it."
