Sailing Into the Wild Unknown with Captain Liz Clark

Our guest today, Captain Liz Clark is one of those courageous souls who turned her massive dream into a reality. Liz sailed into the wild unknown on her 40-foot sailboat, named Swell, and voyaged around the world for 10 years. As you might imagine, she’s got a few stories to tell. After her trip she wrote a moving memoir about her experiences, and aptly titled the book Swell: A Sailing Surfer’s Voyage of Awakening. Her story is as much an exploration of her inner landscape as it is about the beautiful, and oftentimes terrifying, experiences in the vast wilds of the open ocean. Our conversation found Liz at her home in Tahiti, where she’s now married, adjusting to life on land, running a local environmental non-profit, and continuing to live a life deeply intertwined with nature. We talked about the benefits of tuning into the subtleties of nature, taking care of our planet, dodging deadly lightning storms, and the importance of turning our most audacious dreams into reality.If you find anything in this episode helpful or inspiring, please share it with a friend so we can bend the algorithms toward nature.
