19. The Comfort Crisis w/Michael Easter
In this week’s episode of the No Excuse to Miss Podcast, Scott welcomes Michael Easter to talk about how the idea of being comfortable nowadays has changed the way we see our existence. In his book “Comfort Crisis”, Michael talks more in depth about this topic using a very personal experience he went through. He explains that when we lose the privileges that modern life brings us, we have the chance to truly appreciate the small things.In addition, Michael shares the story of a brief period of his life where he faced drinking problems and how he eventually decided that going to extremes with alcohol was not the path he wanted to keep following. He also highlights the topic of death and how important it is to think about death – or at least validate it – to reignite drive, reset our life goals, and rediscover purpose. Tune in!
