Boyd Varty appeared on Invest Like the Best to discuss the art of tracking, his life experiences, and his personal philosophy. When asked by the host where listeners should begin exploring his work, Varty recommended his own book Cathedral of the Wild as a great starting point for readers. Additionally, he recommended Finding Your Way in a Wild New World by Martha Beck, describing her as his mentor and singling out the book as a stunning description of how humans can get back in touch with their more natural state of being. Varty also discussed the writing process behind Cathedral of the Wild itself, mentioning during an earlier episode that he had begun writing the book while spending two or three months in the United States and working closely with an editor. Across his appearances on the podcast, Varty emphasized the importance of nature, tracking, mentorship, and personal introspection, using his own literary creations and the works of his mentors to guide listeners toward a deeper connection with the natural world and a more authentic, instinctual way of navigating modern life.
