On Adventure, Living Intentionally & Following Our Intuition with Alex Savatti

Disruptions With Purpose

“I've always loved the definition of adventure as a journey, with an uncertain outcome. And it's it's very much that, like, there is excitement and possibility and room to create. And there is this incredible void and grief and sadness and loss that I think you you need to have them together." - Alex
In today’s conversation we speak with outdoor adventure guide, canoe builder and entrepreneur Alex Savatti. Alex is the co-owner of an transformative outdoor adventure company located in Ontario, Canada called The Trip Shed.
We speak about the perceived risk of following your heart's desire, of stepping outside of our regular rhythm and standing in the often uncomfortable liminal space that these journeys take.
We explore what living an intentional life looks like and the ups and downs that come with stepping outside of our cultural worldview to get into alignment with what’s calling us. We talk about how powerful, yet challenging, it is to listen to our intuition as it often only speaks as a whisper.
In this episode, we talk about:
Trust: The willingness and 'risk' to loose sight of the shore in search of what's calling us and how uncomfortable this space can be but how imperative it is for following our soul's longing.
Intuition: It usually only speaks as a whisper and if we're willing to listen and follow its guide, the life we long for is on the other side.
Risk: What are we really risking when we follow the path towards our calling
Gratitude: How being grateful for the little small things in life allows for the bigger things to emerge.
Effortless Uncover What's Calling You:

You have dreams for yourself and an ambition for your life. You’re here to create influence, impact, and change.
And if you're like many, you may be stuck and spinning by the question "What Is My Purpose?"

Finally reveal what’s important to you so that you can begin living the life you’re meant to be living without needing to know your purpose.
Asking ‘what is my purpose’ is one of the most frustrating questions you can ask yourself when you’re longing for a life rich with meaning, creativity and happiness.
The free meditation below is specifically designed for people who are unclear, spinning, and stuck by the question ‘what am I here to do?'.
