Ep. 46: Jared Brock
My wife and I run a charity to fight human trafficking. I recently completed a 37,000 mile pilgrimage around the world – I danced with rabbis, walked on coals, went to North Korea and Westboro, visited monks, and even gained an audience with Pope Francis. (My recently published humorous memoir about the trip.)
A few years ago, my wife and I took the 100 Things challenge. Today, we live in a 1975 Airstream trailer in a forest. We’re carbon neutral, don’t own cell phones, I’m a vegetarian, and we’ve traveled to over 40 countries in six years of marriage. Lots of fun stories to tell!
