  • Climate Action with Jeremy Jones + Travis Rice
    Aug 3 2021

    This week's guests probably don't need an introduction, but just in case: we're joined by Jeremy Jones and Travis Rice, two snowboarding legends who have turned their careers towards activism. Jeremy, renowned adventurer, director, and 'Champion of Change' (according to President Obama), is also the founder of Protect Our Winters, a non-profit doing incredible work to fight climate change. Travis Rice has also established himself as one of the world's most influential snowboarders, produced 5 films, been named Adventurer of the Year by National Geographic, and most recently founded the Natural Selection Tour. This is a fascinating conversation between two incredible athletes and advocates for change. They talk their current work, prioritizing environmental action, fatherhood, and obviously snowboarding-- don't miss it.

She's currently a gold and bronze medalist, ESPN ESPY Award Winner, American and World Record holder, and 15-time World Champion. Together, she and Jeremy Snyder founded the TFA Group, a production agency with a simple goal: to change the perception of disability in our society through the power of storytelling.

  • Episode Re-release: Sasha DiGiulian
    Jun 29 2021

    In this episode, one of the best rock climbers of all-time, Sasha Digiulian, sits down to talk with Cory and I about her life, her career, and Adventure with Purpose. Sasha shares how she strives to find harmony and has rolled with the punches during her career - and at this challenging time.

    At 27 years old she has already had a decade-plus long career in climbing and adventure. The conversation covers her storied career and what she’s up to now while quarantined and recovering from major surgery. She dives into what it’s like to try and balance an athletic career with life, education, relationships, travel, and how she has learned to both confront and shut out the noise of social media.  She describes the power of commitment, discovering “just being” and struggling with the question of “does everything happen for a reason,” while she has been dealing with post-surgery recovery, the death of a friend, and quarantine. Sasha drops some real pearls in this conversation. It’s a great one for all of those who are looking for a dive into the concept of Adventure with Purpose and tools for confronting the unavoidable challenges life has in store. -CJ
