Episode 82 Thru Hiking, Happiness, and Taking Action with Dylan Tonkin

I found Dylan Tonkin through a post of his on Linkedin where he described what it was hating his job, quitting, hiking a long trail, and finally starting his own business.

On this episode, Dylan and I chat about his personal story and what he’s learned from all of it. We discuss what it means to be happy, what it means to FIND happiness, and how important it really to pursue what you want by taking action.

This episode is riddled full of motivation for anyone out there needing a little extra bump to get going in the right direction.

Enjoy!
