My guest today is Boyd Varty. Boyd was one of the most popular guests way back in 2016 and 2017 in the early editions of this podcast. He's a lion tracker, a storyteller who grew up in the South African wilderness living amongst and tracking wild leopards.
This is his fourth time on Invest Like the Best, but the first in six years. Boyd is the perfect follow-up episode to my episode with Lulu Cheng Meservey, unpacking the intricacies of storytelling and why it is such an essential skill for founders.
Boyd walks us through different mechanisms of cultivating storytelling and becoming a meaning maker. He encourages everyone to become someone stories happen around and be a character who finds characters.
We discuss his concept of story hunting, leveraging stories in business, and continually finding new meaning in life. Please enjoy my discussion with Boyd Varty.
