Did We Ever Doubt It? The Truth About Nearly Stopping

Beschrijving

The problem was never inspiration. It was hesitation. Procrastination. That fatal gap between deciding and actually doing. This is the episode where we admit how close we came to stopping. The maintenance disasters in Colombia, Malaysia and Australia. The canal crossings where turning back was still an option. The businesses we folded, the friends we didn't expect to miss, and the identity each of us had to give up to leave. We also disagree about whether Starlink and remote work have made the modern version of this too easy. Next episode we start taking apart the real reasons people don't go, beginning with the kids' education.Cockpit Sessions is the podcast where we work through the book behind our eight-year family circumnavigation, one conversation at a time.

Mindset. This episode - two people with completely different approaches to risk, planning and uncertainty talk through what actually separates the ones who go from the ones who don't. Irenka left home at seventeen with a borrowed one-way ticket to Southeast Asia and no plan. Woody bought a round-the-world itinerary and trained for four months before stepping on a boat. They both ended up sailing around the world. Also: why in Brighton, you're never more than twenty feet from a juggler, what a five-year-old building a sandcastle could teach Seth Godin, why having an escape route gives you the courage to escape. Cockpit Sessions is the series in which Woody and Irenka work through the book behind their eight-year sailing circumnavigation, one conversation at a time. --- 💙 SUPPORT OUR CHANNELS: A big THANK-YOU to our MOTHERSHIP PATREON family who make these videos possible.
