Summary
Real growth isn’t a glow-up—it’s a beautiful mess. In this episode, we open up about the transitions, challenges, and quiet wins happening inside our family and business this year. If you’ve been feeling behind, this conversation will remind you you’re not alone—progress is progress, even when it’s slow. And asking What has gone right? might just shift everything. 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. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Rate. Review. Subscribe.
