Episode Details

In this episode, Carl shares a lesson he’s learning while riding an adventure motorcycle: Look where you want to go. Whether on a motorcycle, skis, a mountain bike, or in life, focusing on the obstacle often pulls you toward it, while looking beyond it helps you move through it. Carl reflects on attention, presence, and the surprising way our brains can navigate challenges when we keep our eyes on the path ahead rather than the thing we’re trying to avoid. It’s a simple lesson with implications far beyond the trail.
