Building A Life You Love - Beyond Camp #4
Do you have the guts to tear it all down and start building the life that you want? It’s not easy, but take it from Ruby Compton, it’s possible!
With so many of our lives in turmoil right now in one way or another, some can see it as the perfect time to rebuild. The desire to do this can either come from a sense of “well, it’s already in shambles anyway” or, from a lens of “this is something that I can actually control amidst the chaos”.
Either way, it’s a brave decision to start aligning yourself with a new/different purpose. Hats off to you for even contemplating it.
So, what does it take to make the leap? How do you know it’s time? What will it actually be like?
Who better to answer these questions than someone who has, and is living that transformation? That’s why we called in the creme de la creme, the queen of the raft, Go Camp Pro Podcaster extraordinaire - Ruby Compton!
We dive into this topic with Ruby as she shares with us how she’s building her business and career around her life - instead of the other way around. Join us as we discuss finding the courage to take a different path and how she stays true to herself and her values.
Whether you’re planning on starting your own business or just want to explore the path less travelled, we are certain there’s something in this conversation for you.
Tune in to this episode to hear about:
Ruby’s camp “origin story”
How Ruby moved into and out of full-time directing and camp work
How growth needs to be a continuous part of our life’s work, no matter the role we are in
Finding a way to consistently check-in to see if the work is matching your values
Developing a healthier relationship with work-life balance
Much, much more!

What is Beyond Camp?
Beyond Camp is a new summer Podcast brought to you by Go Camp Pro.
Cassie Bloy and Rachel Kent are here to explore the intersection of camp and our lives. As much as people like to talk about camp and ‘the real world’ as two separate entities, camp professionals know that this simply isn’t true. Beyond Camp dives into how different aspects of our lives affect our camp experience, effectively bursting the camp bubble and welcoming all parts of our lives into the conversation.
Go Camp Pro is excited to bring you this weekly podcast during the summer of 2020.
