The harsh realities of the Alaskan wilderness are full of lessons that transcend time. Living in a remote cabin, hunting, fishing, and surviving off the land bring to survive every day changes everything about how a person thinks and relates to the rest of society. I didn't know it at the time, but I was acquiring profound wisdom for living for the rest of my life. I share incredible stories of growing up without modern conveniences, and having to learn how to create an exciting life full of passion and breaking through mental boundaries that limit most people and stop them from achieving their dreams in life. This is not a fictitious story or an exaggerated one. This is exactly how we grew up. You'll be surprised at what we had to do to survive, and sometimes you'll laugh, and other times you'll be thankful you don't have to live like that now. As for me, I miss it terribly, and I would trade all the hardship for the mess we've created across America in a heartbeat. If only we could travel back in time.
