Ep 134 – From Stuck to Soaring with Curtis and Irene Hill
Curtis had six kids, just lost his job, and wondered if he’d ever get ahead—or live his lifelong dream of flying. Alongside his wife Irene, he navigated big fears, bold risks, and life-changing decisions, from investing in a groundbreaking ed-tech startup to finally buying the small airplane he’d always dreamed of. In this episode, Curtis and Irene share their story of courage, partnership, and adventure, offering insights for anyone ready to take a leap, invest in a dream, and turn fear into freedom—one adventure at a time.
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.
