Jeff Rasley is a former attorney who is both an author and a public speaker. And Jeff could also be a poster child for Rebirth. He built a successful career in law and business and was a millionaire by the time he was 40. Life was great, and the sports car and Harley were fun. But in his mid-40’s, Jeff began to manifest mid-life symptoms. He seemed to need something beyond family, life, career, and financial good fortune. His wife’s answer to “Is that all there is?” was to suggest that Jeff go trekking in the Himalayas and reconnect with his adventurous and more spiritual side that he had lost in the pursuit of success. That trek transformed Jeff’s life.

IN THIS EPISODE, YOU’LL HEAR ABOUT THINGS LIKE:

• The ways Jeff’s “pursuit of success” transformed into a more spiritual and meditative approach to life.
• Jeff’s “philanthro-treks” that combined visiting Nepal with culturally sensitive development work.
• The creation of Basa Village Foundation, the non-profit that helps the rural village of Basa.
• How Jeff became lost and alone in a kayak at sea at night and what sustained him during that frightening time.

SOME QUESTIONS IRENE ASKS JEFF:

• Why did you choose trekking in the Himalayas as your healing cure for “is that all there is?”
• What inspired you to transition from a mere adventurer to a committed philanthropist?
• What did it mean for you to fly across the world to find new people and greater clarity of purpose among the snowy peaks of the Himalayas?
