The Athletic Philosopher Podcast - Episode 35 The Athletic Lessons from Reading Thoreau's 'Walden'

This episode is all about the Tribal Training Book Club I launched and how reading the first title unfolded. I picked 'Walden' by Henry David Thoreau for a few reasons and I detail all the lessons learned.

The importance of community and leadership in holding you accountable to establishing a daily practice was one big takeaway. 

Another was the value of internal knowing and how to create ease in a process that involves doing a hard thing, expressed through my own struggle to cement a daily reading habit into my lifestyle after leaving my university professor position.

Final takeaways include how to mine athletic knowledge from Thoreau's experiment in experiential philosophy and a clarion call to live the life YOU DEMAND and DREAM about living.
