Colin Wright is a world traveler, writer, journalist, and entrepreneur. He’s written (and self-published) numerous books on topics ranging from world travel and minimalism to relationships and fictional stories.
In this episode, Colin and I discuss his journey from starting a corporate media agency to quitting and traveling the world full-time to where he’s at now. We then dive into what it really means to be a minimalist (hint: it doesn’t mean owning few things), and the fruits and difficulties of cultivating relationships on the road. As we speak on relationships, we speak on the different ways to explore the cross-cultural context and why it’s so important to be okay with looking dumb. We then turn the conversation to focus more on his current pursuits in online journalism (including the multiple podcasts and newsletters he publishes). Colin talks about what Interwingularity is and how to manage the insane amount of information in the media today with an air of epistemic humility. Finally, we twist things up with a bit of Lifspeki talk :)
I hope you enjoy this wonderful podcast as much I enjoyed the conversation!
