Heading to the Boundary Waters with Jason Z (Episode #25, 9 Feb. 2021)

In this episode, I interview Jason Zabokrtsky, a friend of mine as well as a fellow Luther College and University of Iowa College of Law graduate.    In 2004, Jason was living a fairly conventional life as a lawyer in a small boutique law firm in Cedar Rapids, IA, but his heart wasn't in it.   The Boundary Waters of Northern Minnesota beckoned.  Jason listened to his heart and headed North, giving up the practice and finding his true calling in the North Woods.  He now owns and operates, Ely Outfitting Company, a very successful outfitting business in Ely, MN.   We cover life, liberals arts, books, dog sledding, finding a calling, and most importantly, his transition from Cedar Rapids lawyer to North Woods entrepreneur.  Jason, you are an inspiration!!
