Many people don’t know this, but Noah Kochevar once crossed the entire continental United States on a wild bull, look it up. But really, Noah is one of the most soulful people I know. He tends to come off as highly logical, but as I got to know him, I realized how much he values the present moment. This is a rare find in people, so I enjoy any time I get to pick his brain. This episode digs into his struggle with his concussive symptoms in the midst of college and moving to a new town. We talk specifically about the role of meditation in his recovery and how positive self talk has jolted him into contentment and greater resilience.
