Ep 124 - Compass vs. Map: Navigating Life Without Perfect Plans
You know that feeling when you’re trying to follow a map, but it keeps changing and you’re not sure if you’re going the right way? That’s where values come in—they’re your compass, steady and always guiding you, while goals are just helpful maps along the journey. In this episode, we share stories from our sailing adventures and show how trusting your compass helps you make choices that feel intentional, even when the path ahead isn’t perfectly clear.
Welcome to the What Could Go Right? Podcast. We’re your hosts: Erik Orton and Emily Orton. We talk about personal growth and sailing. In 2014, with little experience and less money, we bootstrapped a year on a sailboat with our five kids and it changed our lives forever. We tell the whole story in our book Seven at Sea. On this podcast, we want to help you go from fear to freedom one adventure at a time.
