Larry Kesslin shares how two big trips changed his life: teaching inner-city kids to ski in Aspen in 1993, when he realized he had “everything” but felt miserable, and visiting Uganda and Kenya in 2012 - where he saw people with less living with more joy. Those moments pushed him to leave corporate life, become self-employed, and focus on coaching, giving back, and connecting people.
He talks about joy as something internal—more like peace—rather than chasing money, status, or “needs” that are really wants. He explains his “sky and clouds” metaphor for not being your thoughts and feelings, his “ascension ladder” idea, and why comparison and identity traps can kill joy.
