03: Life at the Edges with Akshay Nanavati

The ChipChat Podcast - A podcast by Chip Franks

Howdy, you Beautiful Soul!Today I'm so proud to introduce you to one of the most interesting, most intelligent, and kindest people that I've ever had the pleasure to meet.It's Akshay Nanavati. He's an adventurer, researcher, author, entrepreneur, and the creator of Fearvana--a way of living he's discovered and the name of his bestselling book..The Dalai Lama (yes, THAT one) says, "Feavana inspires us to look beyond our own agonizing experiences and find the positive side of our lives."Here are just a few of the ridiculously awesome nuggets of wisdom that you'll get from Akshay (and me, too! Yay me!) during this honest conversation about leading a better life:"Wandering with the Human Heart" á la Carl Jung.The deep dark valley, and how that helps us appreciate the good in life (the paradox of singular duality).The dead depending on us for their redemption.The purity of pain.The thoughts of hurting us.The guilt over being privileged in life.Why the goal of progress shouldn't be to make life EASIER.Earning this life.What it is that makes life really worth living.There are a few colorful words that escape Akshay's mouth, so I needed to list this one as "Explicit" but it's all done in good taste.I really think you're going to love this Let me know what you think at [email protected] are loved and deserving!Chip ❤️👍
