In this episode, we discuss our passion for documenting life and the reasons behind it.We’ll take you through our journey of capturing memories through various mediums like vlogs, blogs, photos, and, most recently, a book. Jessica shares her experience of writing her upcoming book, which highlights a transformative journey on the Appalachian Trail with our son. We also explore the importance of documenting life, whether for personal reflection, leaving a legacy, or simply appreciating the experiences that shape us. In addition, we delve into the deeper motivations for documenting life, including preserving memories, telling authentic stories, and creating something meaningful for future generations.Welcome to 'The Why Matters Podcast,' where we explore life lessons, things we often take for granted, and everything in between, gathered from our decade-long full-time travel lifestyle. Each week, we'll delve deep into the 'why' behind the choices we humans make in life and the positive results that stem from a strong sense of purpose.

Cardiac Cowboys
The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
