How to add more exploration in your life (w/ Alex Hutchinson)
About this episode
Alex Hutchinson joins Chris to discuss the importance of exploration and following curiosity in our daily lives.
“When was the last time you did something you didn’t do yesterday?” asks journalist and explorer Alex Hutchinson. Alex joins Chris to examine whether the desire to explore is baked into our genes, how he intentionally tries to get lost in his neighborhood, and what he learns from following his curiosity.
