#152 How to find your life track with Boyd Varty | The Unconventionalists

Boyd Varty is a TED speaker, author and South African lion tracker turned life tracker who has taught his philosophy of “Tracking your Life” to companies and individuals all over the world.

“There’s nothing more healing than finding your gift and sharing it.” - Boyd Varty

Since childhood, Boyd Varty shared his home with lions, leopards, snakes, and elephants and has spent his life in apprenticeship to the wisdom of nature.

Boyd survived a harrowing black mamba encounter, a debilitating bout with malaria, even a vicious crocodile attack, but his biggest challenge was a personal crisis of purpose.

As a university student, he studied psychology and ecology, supplementing his education by learning martial arts in Thailand, hiking through the jungles of the Amazon, and apprenticing to a renowned tracker from the Shangaan tribe deepening his intimate knowledge of the natural world. Boyd grew up speaking the local language and learning the true meaning of coexistence between people and with nature.

Today, Boyd has a psychology degree from the University of South Africa, is a certified Master Life Coach, is the author of two books, a TED speaker and has taught his philosophy of “Tracking your Life” to companies and individuals all over the world.

He has since been featured in the New York Times and NBC.

I loved this authentic interview and all the resonances I felt whilst listening. I’ve followed him on Spotify TRACK YOU LIFE 40 days in the wilderness so this was lovely to come across. A lovely relaxed informal interview
