#250 Blair Rubock — Through Strangers' Eyes, Facing Death & Living With A Tribe

Season 1 Episode 250 Published 3 months ago
Description

This week I sat down with Blair Rubock, a really special human who has built something incredible with his Instagram page @ThroughStrangersEyes. By sitting down with strangers and having honest conversations about their struggles, Blair has reached millions of people and reminded all of us that everyone is carrying something.


We got into all of it. How Through Strangers' Eyes started, what those conversations have taught him, and why he had to stop his national tour to look after his own mental health.


Blair also opens up about his fear of dying, and what it has been like watching his dad struggle with dementia right after he retired. It's a heavy chapter, but Blair speaks about it with so much love and honesty.


We also chat about his newest project, Through My Eyes, where he travelled to a remote village in the Mentawai Islands to live with the tribesmen and learn about their way of life. The documentary drops on May 31st and it sounds incredible.


This is one of those conversations that will sit with you for a while.
