Attaining, Atoning and Attuning with Chip Conley
Today Gay and I are interviewing one of our heroes. Someone whose wisdom we have great respect for so needless to say we’ve been looking forward to this one for a while.
His name is Chip Conley, he’s a New York Times bestselling author and the hospitality maverick who helped Airbnb's founders turn their fast-growing tech start-up into a global hospitality brand.
He’s also the founder of the Modern Elder Academy, where a new roadmap for midlife is offered at a beautiful oceanfront campus in Baja California Sur, Mexico.
In today’s episode we’ll talk about where you’ll find the greatest level of purpose in your life plus Chip explains attaining versus attuning and atoning.
Chip tells us that “You probably have more life ahead of you than you think! If you're 54 and live until you’re 90, you’re exactly halfway through your adult life. When you know you have that much life ahead of you, it's time to start planning and doing the things you've always wanted to do, and make the Big Leap.”
Chip is a big believer in the fact that resilience alone will just wear out your knuckles. It buys you time, but adaptability buys you a future. Having the courage to be adaptable, creative, curious and the willingness to make mistakes along the way. The biggest mistake you could ever make is not even trying.
