  • What Happens When You Die? (Part Two): A Journey to the Other Side with Peter Panagore
    2024/05/16
    This is part two of my interview with Peter Panagore, who is sharing the incredible stories of his not one but two near-death experiences. In this episode, you’ll hear about what happened the second time he died and how it’s changed how he goes through life. We talk about the difficulties of living as your new authentic self after having a transformational experience and go even deeper into questions around death, mysticism, enlightenment, and what Peter describes as “the union experience.” I encourage you to keep an open mind while you listen to our fascinating conversation! What did you take from Peter’s story? I'd love to hear your thoughts, and I hope you’ll share by sending me an audio message.

  • What Happens When You Die? (Part One): A Journey to the Other Side with Peter Panagore
    2024/05/14
    Is there any bigger journey we take than the journey to the other side? Today’s guest is Peter Panagore, who is sharing the incredible story of his first (yes, first) near-death experience. In part one of this two-part series, you’ll hear the harrowing tale of how Peter froze to death and came back to life while ice climbing and why it’s important for him to continue to tell his story years later. We talk about mystical experiences and how to interpret them, why he no longer asks “why,” and share our thoughts on why perhaps we should all think a bit more about death. No matter your beliefs, you’ll be captivated by his tale of returning from the beyond and how it’s transformed his life. Stay tuned for part two, where we get into some more thoughtful questions and talk about his second near-death experience. What are your thoughts on near-death experiences? What did you take from this episode? I'd love to hear your thoughts, and I hope you’ll share by sending me an audio message.

    Harry Mitsidis is one of only three people to have visited every country in the world…TWICE! He is also the founder of NomadMania, an online community that inspires global explorers to venture beyond the ordinary and obvious to celebrate the world’s diversity.

As someone who empowers people to get out, see the world, and spend quality time off the beaten track, we also have a bigger conversation around his unique perspectives on travel and what motivates him to continue exploring the world. Of course, there are plenty of destination recommendations (like the best place to be pleasantly surprised!) and insights into filling your life with travel. What do you think of gamifying travel?

  • Greatest Hits: Adventure and Conservation - A 6,000 km Tuk-Tuk Journey Through Africa
    2024/04/25
    Have you ever encountered something while traveling that sparked a "crazy idea" or inspired you to make a change? For the past six months, Robbie, Ivo, Jasper, and Josh have created adventure videos in Kenya for their YouTube channel, and it quickly became apparent that the loss of tourism due to Covid-19 is hurting parks and conservancies throughout Africa.
