In this episdoe, we are speaking to Tez Steinberg who was the first person in history to row across the Pacific Ocean alone from California to Hawaii with no prior rowing experience. The journey took 71 days and 2,700 miles, powered only by sheer will and two oars. Tez was named one of the "50 Best Young Minds in the World" by the World Economic Forum and you can see why. Hearing his story of resilience, determination and simple yet precise wisdom blew me away.  We talk about the comfort crises, finding our ocean and the courage to cross it, death as a beautiful teacher and misconceptions around the ocean plastic crises.  Okay, it’s time to live wide awake.  Stay connected with Tez: Website: https://unitedworldchallenge.org/ | https://teztalk.com/ Social media: https://www.instagram.com/tezsteinberg/?hl=en | https://www.instagram.com/unitedworldchallenge  Stay connected & support the show Instagram: http://instagram.com/livewideawake  Support: If you enjoyed the show do consider making a contribution so we can keep having conscious conversations - https://www.patreon.com/livewideawake Reach out: [email protected]
