ECF Live 2025 Bozeman Teaser + Parenting Reality Check

ECF Live 2025 Bozeman Teaser + Parenting Reality Check

Author: Andrew Youderian | e-Commerce Entrepreneur September 5, 2025 Duration: 23:11

What do a minimalist fanny pack, the Chicago Cubs, and a powerful moment of self-awareness have in common? In this solo episode, I'm sharing a deeply personal reflection on the end of my gap year, a trip to Chicago with my dad, and what I'm looking forward to as I dive back into work and host the upcoming ECF Live in Bozeman, Montana.

Listen in as I preview the ECF Live agenda and speaker lineup, share highlights from my 2,000-mile road trip, and kick off a new season of Forge What Matters with a vulnerable parenting check-in. From testing out the ultra-minimalist Stash Packable Sling to walking the halls of America's largest homeless mission, this one's part travel story, part life update, and part honest reflection on what really matters.
