1140 | Once You’ve Seen the Mountains

Have you ever thought about whether pursuing a creative life can lead to stability? In this episode of Behavior Gap Radio, Carl tackles that question (inspired by a recent conversation with university students). He shares that while most people optimize for ease and stability, he’s more interested in doing hard things and creating meaningful experiences, like hosting retreats at his home. Using the metaphor of “seeing the mountains,” Carl explains that once you’ve experienced something truly transformative, you can’t go back to settling for less. Have you seen your own “mountains,” and how has that shaped the way you design your life?
