Drew Hicks is a triple threat: he’s a talented writer and artist, a kick-ass speaker and storyteller, and a true Renaissance dude who could keep himself alive in the wilderness probably longer than anyone else I know.
He’s a “nature-based stoic, and a deeply spiritual pro-science weirdo in the style of John Muir.” I meeeean need I say more?!
When I decided on the theme of storytelling for this month, I knew I had to interview Drew. I hope you love listening to this conversation as much as I enjoyed having it!
One of the things I was excited to ask Drew about was his secret sauce for memorizing details and being able to clearly and effectively communicate them to audiences (which he does beautifully in this episode). We get into that around 37 minutes in, and what Drew had to say definitely inspired me to take some actions to grow my own skills in this area.
