Keep Going University: Finding Space to Change
If you’ve been reading or listening to Keep Going for free, you’ve already seen the value of having independent work that isn’t shaped by corporate sponsors or the news cycle’s noise.

Keep Going University: Finding Space to Change
This week on Keep Going, I spoke with Neil Markey, CEO of Beckley Retreats. What stood out wasn’t just the psychedelic retreats, or even Amanda Feilding’s remarkable legacy. It was the way Neil described burnout, recovery, and the hard choices people face when they feel stuck.
Neil’s path was anything but straight. Military service after 9/11. Multiple deployments. Graduate school. Then the corporate world, where he did well but lost his center. He noticed the warning signs: poor sleep, irritability, drinking too much, strained relationships. The same symptoms he had experienced leaving the service. He called it discontent. Most people push past those signals. They bury them under work, consumption, or distractions. Neil decided to listen.
