Jon Turk on Living in the Present and Trusting Yourself

We can know and trust ourselves well enough not to journey too far into imaginary worlds.
Do you ever feel overwhelmed by the stories and expectations others place on you? In this episode of 'A Quest for Well-Being', Valeria Teles chats with Jon Turk, an adventurer, author, and environmental scientist, about the power of living in the present moment and trusting oneself. Jon's incredible journey includes kayaking around Cape Horn, mountain biking across Mongolia, and earning a Ph.D. in organic chemistry.
His insights are both grounded and adventurous, offering a unique perspective on how to navigate life authentically. Jon emphasizes that traveling through life alone can mean having enough faith in yourself that you don’t need to follow the stories others create. Instead, he advocates for presence in the now and in the real world, avoiding the pitfalls of imaginary worlds and mass movements.
Valeria and Jon also touch on the interconnectedness of all things, the impact of belief systems on our reality, and the vital role nature plays in our lives. With a mix of thought-provoking ideas and practical advice, this episode is a must-listen for anyone seeking to embrace unconditional love and self-trust while exploring new ways of being.
