Going From Malaria to The Startup Diaries with Fabian Dittrich, Part 1

Ep-210

Fabian Dittrich is well known for his awesome show, The Startup Diaries.

But how did he get there? What started the journey to the filming of such an awesome show?

Turns out, it’s not what you think.

He got Malaria.

And he’s thankful he did.

Today Fabian joins us to chat about how he went from Malaria to a series of life events that lead to him taking his entire company on a road trip through South America filming the Startup Diaries along the way.

On his journey, he heard the standard job advice (decided it wasn’t for him), and figured out that one of the best ways for him to make decisions was to base them on whether or not something would make a good story.

So, what do you think? Do YOU think it was a good story?

4 Choices That Landed Us at The Edge of The Grand Canyon

Ep-196

The Grand Canyon is a sight to behold.

One so great that Heather’s jaw actually dropped when she saw it for the first time.

And today’s podcast is recorded from its very edge!

Situated on a cliff on the outside of the Grand Canyon we decided to record a podcast about all the decisions we made that lead us to this moment.

Our hope is that you can take the lessons of these decisions and apply them to your own travel and hopefully find yourself somewhere just as amazing!

We also want to thank YOU for making these moments possible!
