Episode 35: A Reminder to Live Your Life with Horace Tong
Hosted by Katelyn Calhoun
This week on Crafted Connections, we’re taking a trip around the world—literally—with traveler, adventurer, and all-around joy-bringer Horace Tong.
Horace has visited every country in the world, but his story goes far beyond passport stamps. It’s about curiosity, courage, and connection—the kind that reminds us why we’re here in the first place.
From crushing an oyster-eating contest in his home city of Vancouver to visiting Antarctica, Horace shares stories filled with humor, heart, and perspective. In this conversation, we explore what it means to live with intention, build global connections, and find joy in the small, spontaneous moments that make life rich.
This episode is your gentle nudge to get out there, follow your curiosity, and live your story while you can.
