"The cool thing about life is that the more you open yourself up to life, the more life opens itself up to you."
Mike Corey is a host, travel blogger, videographer, photographer, breakdancer, and enthusiastic world explorer.
He’s currently serving as the first travel brand ambassador for Skype, which Skype calls Moment Makers, and Mike definitely is that. His videos include him eating all kinds of weird foods and participating in rich, life-changing experiences — like shark diving, the worlds biggest tomato food fight festival, or sleeping on the great wall of China.
I asked him to come on the show when I stumbled on his adventure videos, particularly an 80 day round the world journey with Cathay Pacific airlines.
On this episode, we discuss…
How Mike became Skype's first travel ambassador, and the amazing stories that came from it
How to overcome fear that might be stopping you from getting out there
Why it's important to filter the messages from those who have never taken the journey
Words from an Explorer
“What if I could just be curious my entire life?”
"Being afraid that you're afraid is half of what makes scary things scary."
"The cool thing about life is that the more you open yourself up to life, the more life opens itself up to you."
