Adventures with Cat Caldwell Myers

·38 min·1 clip
Your story isn't what happened to you—it's who you're becoming next.
Alison Fraser opens by reflecting on how people can thrive in different places when they have the right tools and faith. She welcomes Kat Caldwell-Meyers and sets up a conversation about how The Adventure Paradox came together and how it has changed over the past year. Kat begins with the feeling of leaving a place that was beautiful for the animals but no longer fully matched the family. She describes the Chicago property as a wooded place where the sun hardly shone through. The move is not treated like a clean upgrade; it is more of a shift toward better alignment. Kat returns to the idea that some places make it easier to feel alive and connected, especially when the people, priorities, and community line up. The conversation then turns to a 6,000-mile odyssey across the United States, and Alison responds with her own upcoming trip from New Zealand to Europe with her son. Kat explains that the family's dream horse trailer is 42 feet long, with four horses in the back and living quarters up front for the children, a bathroom, a kitchen, and a bed for mom and dad. She talks about promising the horses she would never take them away and make them leave again, and says they are back in their original pasture with 20 acres and a seasonal stream. Kat also asks Alison questions, which keeps the exchange feeling like a real back-and-forth rather than a formal interview.
