    Rebranding This is a True Story Podcast

    So I am rebranding This is a True Story Podcast.   The past year I really loved sharing transformative stories and ideas. From the first story of finding love and near death in death valley to hiking the PCT, to discovering oneself by experimenting with plant medicine, silent meditation, solo travel and many more stories. All I loved equally and fully. I found a ton of happiness in publishing these stories. The podcast did rise fast with lots of support in the form of downloads and I am forever grateful. Thank you.   So here is where the podcast is going. The podcast is now called Minimalism with Intention and here I will share stories, ideas and conversations focused on minimalism and intentionalism. A lot of the stories I shared on This is a True Story we’re very much stories of intention, meaning living an intentional life, a life centered on one’s core belief and value and purpose. I also shared quite a few episodes focused specifically on minimalism. So you will see some familiar themes moving forward. This podcast is for sure going to share a lot of transformative and inspiring experiences and ideas. I hope you will take part!   Check out these minimalist stories here (I have many stories of intentional living published too!): Colin Wright sharing This is It https://www.livingadaptive.com/rejecting-wealth-to-pursue-something-more-colin-wright/ Jennifer Burger sharing Declutter Your Life https://www.livingadaptive.com/declutter-your-life-and-chase-your-dreams-jennifer-burger/ https://www.livingadaptive.com/if-your-life-should-fall-apartsaramae-hollandsworth/   Support the show by using the link below to Buy Me A Coffee https://www.buymeacoffee.com/scottdavidson   This is a True Story Podcast is found here, https://www.instagram.com/thisisatruestorypodcast/ http://truestorypod.com   Scott Davidson is found here, https://www.instagram.com/living_adaptive/ https://linktr.ee/living_adaptive

    What I Learned From Interviewing the Most Adaptive Individuals on Earth

    I am about to share what the most adaptive individuals do in order reach their goals and better the world despite incredible adversity. The past six years I’ve interviewed hundreds (really likely much higher) of individuals that faced unimaginable adversities. Some have died. Some have lost a loved one. Some have lost the ability to move. Some have not only lost their health but at the same time have been abandoned by family and friends and thus forced to journey alone. Some have survived war and returned without limbs. Yet, as these storms surround these highly adaptive individuals, they’ve found a way to improve their position and make the world better. How? I will tell you what the most adaptive individuals do....   Check out this really amazing true transformative story, https://www.livingadaptive.com/if-your-life-should-fall-apartsaramae-hollandsworth/   Support the show by using the link below to Buy Me A Coffee https://www.buymeacoffee.com/scottdavidson   This is a True Story Podcast is found here, https://www.instagram.com/thisisatruestorypodcast/ http://truestorypod.com Scott Davidson is found here, https://www.instagram.com/living_adaptive/ https://linktr.ee/living_adaptive

    Opt Out and Reclaim Your Life

    My schedule was full of responsibilities. I had a bunch of social commitments I didn’t want to attend. My email and home inboxes were full of stuff. I paid for a bunch of packages, but I really only used one service. In my quest to get after life, my list of goals kept growing and many weren’t essential. When acquaintances, non-profits or other entities asked for help I almost always said yes...and while all this was going on I was having health complications. My body was breaking down and I was losing a bit of my mobility. I needed to learn how to opt out.
