NOLS, established in 1965, combines outdoor expeditions and wilderness medicine to teach leadership and survival skills. Colhoun discusses the school's philosophy that facing real-world challenges in nature cultivates strong leaders.
The conversation covers NOLS's wide range of courses for all ages, its efforts to stay innovative, and the customized programs for groups, including astronauts and executives. Highlighting personal growth and the impact of outdoor experiences, this episode underscores the relevance of wilderness education in developing adaptable, resilient leaders for today's complex world.

Laura's story shows that facing big challenges and still going after what you want can lead to exciting changes and growth.

Wisdom Nuggets
Embracing the Ambiguity of Success: It's crucial to understand that achieving one's goals often leads to a mix of emotions, including both triumph and fear. This duality, known as "Wonder Hell," is a natural part of the journey towards greatness. Accepting and navigating through this complex emotional landscape is key to personal growth and continuous achievement.
Cultivating Resilience Through Challenges: Overcoming obstacles, especially those as daunting as serious health issues or personal setbacks, teaches invaluable lessons in resilience. These experiences underscore the importance of pushing forward, even when the path seems unclear, reinforcing the belief that action beats stagnation every time.
The Power of Positive Influence: Surrounding oneself with supportive, ambitious, and positive individuals can significantly impact one's ability to pursue and achieve ambitious goals. This network serves as a foundation for encouragement and inspiration, especially when navigating through one's own Wonder Hell.
Learning to Thrive in Discomfort: The journey through Wonder Hell is marked by moments of uncertainty and discomfort. However, these moments are also opportunities for growth. By getting comfortable with being uncomfortable, individuals can unlock new levels of potential and embrace the journey of continuous improvement.
Harnessing the Potential Within: Wonder Hell invites a reevaluation of personal potential and ambition. Recognizing and embracing one's capabilities, even when faced with self-doubt and fear, is essential. This acknowledgment acts as a springboard for setting and achieving even higher goals, proving that inside every moment of Wonder Hell lies the seed of extraordinary achievement.

In this podcast episode, Alex Quin hosts Tom Wheelwright, a renowned entrepreneur, CPA, and author of "Tax Free Wealth," on the "Hustle Inspires Hustle" podcast. Alex begins by emphasizing the podcast's focus on entrepreneurship and self-development, highlighting the valuable insights listeners can gain from top entrepreneurs and business leaders. Tom shares his journey from growing up in a Mormon family to becoming a missionary in France, which he credits as the start of his entrepreneurial spirit. He recounts his career progression, including his time at Ernst & Young, running his own CPA firm, and his collaboration with Robert Kiyosaki of "Rich Dad Poor Dad" fame.
Tom discusses the importance of understanding and leveraging tax laws to one's advantage, debunking the myth that the wealthy evade taxes through illegal means. Instead, he explains that the tax system offers legal avenues to reduce tax liabilities. He emphasizes the need for entrepreneurs to change their mindset about taxes, seeing them as opportunities rather than burdens. Tom also stresses the importance of proper financial management, including hiring competent professionals like CPAs and bookkeepers.
Addressing a community question, Tom clarifies misconceptions about investing in real estate within qualified retirement plans, advising against it due to better tax benefits outside these plans. Finally, Tom expresses his desire to be remembered as a great dad and grandfather and professionally as someone who simplifies complex topics. He directs listeners to his social media platforms and his company WealthAbility for further tax-related advice and services.

This approach stresses the importance of confidence in one’s financial partners while also advocating for personal due diligence and understanding, ensuring that financial strategies align with personal and business goals.
