Podcasts about Fear

What if you stopped fearing people? In this episode of Light + Truth, John Piper teaches Matthew 10:24–31 and shows how Jesus gives us reasons not to fear.

What if fear isn't a stop sign but a compass? We sit down with Chris Duffin—engineer, world-record powerlifter, entrepreneur, and author of The Eagle and the Dragon—to unpack how real strength is built: by choosing meaningful pressure, not chasing comfort. Chris grew up homeless in the wilderness, learned to respect fear while holding live rattlesnakes, and later rebuilt his body and businesses after brutal setbacks. His thesis is simple and hard: specific adaptation to imposed demand applies to everything—bones, teams, mindsets, and companies.We dig into the Six Ps of resilience—Precipice, Plunge, Pit, Pull, Peak, Plateau—and how to use each phase instead of fighting it. Chris explains why motivation fades, values endure, and entrepreneurship only works when it's an expression of what matters most. We talk leadership that paints a visceral picture of now and next, micro-bravery that compounds into macro-capability, and the quiet courage of hard conversations that prepare you for big leaps. If you've ever felt stuck, his challenge is direct: turn into the pain, ask what you're avoiding, and take the smallest scary action this week.You'll hear how he returned from a devastating back injury to elite performance by owning the process, coordinating experts, and refusing limiting stories—and how a documented case of a double-quad reattachment led to a 700-pound deadlift in seven weeks. The takeaway is practical and liberating: most limits are stories repeated until they feel like physics. Rewrite the script with systems, accountability, and consistent action.If this conversation moved you, follow the show, share it with a friend who needs a nudge, and leave a quick review so more people can find it. Then tell us: what's the one hard step you'll take this week?Join the What if it Did Work movement on FacebookGet the Book!www.omarmedrano.comwww.calendly.com/omarmedrano/15min

In this episode of The Birth Lounge Podcast, HeHe is joined by Tracy aka Modern Day Midwife (a hospital-based midwife in Arizona with a NICU background) for a candid, behind-the-scenes conversation about the realities of modern healthcare. Together, they unpack how the U.S. healthcare system is failing both patients and providers, from provider burnout and lack of mental health support to the pressures of hospital politics, insurance reimbursement, and productivity quotas. They explore the difference between  “Medicine 1.0” (acute care) and “Medicine 2.0” (preventative care, functional medicine, wellness), and how insurance-driven, fee-for-service models often prioritize sick care over true health. The result? Confusing medical bills, rushed care, poor patient experiences, and providers who are stretched thin despite doing deeply meaningful work. HeHe and Tracy dive into the unique challenges facing women's health, maternity care, and birth: over-medicalization, the cascade of interventions, the limits of 10-minute OB-GYN appointments, maternity care deserts, and the need for individualized care, informed consent, and continuity of care. From ACOG guidelines to ever changing evidence and research, they explore possible solutions including a midwifery-led model of care, better transfer systems for home birth and birth center patients, coverage for doulas and health coaching, and shifting consumer demand away from traditional insurance and towards alternatives like health shares.  Tracy shares her exciting vision for an integrated wellness hub that could include midwifery, obstetrics, pelvic floor PT, lactation, chiropractic care, and community-based health supports, and ends by sharing how to connect with her at Premier OB GYN in Phoenix and via Modern Day Midwife online and on Instagram.   00:00 Why Healthcare Breaks Providers 02:24 Burnout and Speaking Up 04:59 Fear and Privilege in Advocacy 07:18 Who Supports Clinicians 12:32 Medicine 1.0 vs Prevention 17:25 Billing Confusion and Fee for Service 19:06 Burn It Down or Reform It 23:55 Disrupting Insurance and Incentives 26:49 Birth Care Needs a New Model 29:36 Preeclampsia Prevention Debate 30:47 Rethinking Maternity Care Roles 32:04 Money in Wellness Care 34:55 Building a One Stop Birth Hub 37:43 Continuity Across Birth Settings 41:45 Evidence Based Medicine Reality Check 47:56 ACOG Guidelines vs Individual Choice 53:23 Demanding Individualized Care 55:11 Rebuilding Healthcare and Provider Support 56:59 Where to Find Tracy 58:15 Closing Thanks and Resources   Guest Bio: Meet Tracy Burns, Board Certified Nurse Midwife.

At 25, Guru Yogishivan was surrounded by luxury in the Middle East. He had trained as a martial artist and become a boxing champion. By most standards, he had success.   But as he spent time around people who had money and influence, he noticed that no one seemed free from fear. Whether it was fear of loss, fear of death, or fear of not having enough.    So he began asking the people around him if they were truly happy. That question sent him on a very different path. In this episode, we explore his journey from athlete to monk... and what his search for truth might mean for men entering their next chapter of life.   We discuss: What happens when success no longer feels like enough Why your identity is constantly changing Whether losing your career is actually losing yourself What 24 minutes a day of inward focus might change A disciplined daily practice for reconnecting with yourself Resources: Book an Ask Yogi Session    YouTube: Indimasi Healing Village  Facebook: Indimas Healing Village  Instagram: Indimasi Healing Village  Whatsapp: +91 62386 00274

Whether you're a runner, someone tackling a big goal, or just trying to figure out what it means to keep going, I think you'll find something here to encourage you. Let's get started.Welcome back to Spirit of EQ! I'm your host, Eric Pennington, and I'm excited to invite you into a powerful episode that goes deep into the emotional journey behind running a marathon—and the life lessons we can pull from it.I'm joined once again by my good friend and guest, J.A. Dava, who many of you might remember from his incredible insights on sales during his last visit. Today, though, we're shifting from business to the marathon course, and trust me, the parallels to life are striking.J.A. is a multi-marathon runner, and in our conversation, he opens up about his life-altering heart attack, what it really feels like to hit “the wall” at mile 22, and how the support of others—sometimes even complete strangers—makes all the difference.We talk honestly about the tough moments, the battles with ego, those humbling setbacks, and what it means to rely on community.I share my own observations—like watching my son-in-law run his first marathon and reflecting on how life sometimes feels exactly like those endurance miles: full of hope early on, then testing you when you least expect it. We cover the importance of rest, the power of discipline over motivation, and why your “why” matters for whatever marathon you're running—on the road, or just in everyday life.Moments00:00 "Life-Saving Health Wake-Up Call"06:54 "Marathon Missteps: Food & Hydration"13:24 "Reflections on Marathons and Life"17:23 "Mile 13: Keep Going"21:09 Running Without Proper Training31:21 Marathon Reflections and Achievement32:20 "Persistence and Emotional Triumph"42:14 Empathy Struggles and Growth48:00 Success Requires Support & Preparation49:23 "What Do I Really Want?"57:28 "Prioritization Over Training Costs Result"01:00:42 "Walking Away and Reflecting"01:07:12 "Overcoming the Fear of Starting"01:14:48 What's It Take to Be You?01:18:20 "Evaluate Your Inner Circle"Here are 3 takeaways you can apply to your journey—whether you're chasing fitness goals or professional ones:

Hello to you listening in Olympia, Washington! Coming to you from Whidbey Island, Washington this is Stories From Women Who Walk with 60 Seconds (and a bit more) for Wednesdays on Whidbey and your host, Diane Wyzga. I am a storyteller of the old school. What do I mean? For over 30 years I've taught (and continue to teach) my clients and students the same thing: “Put down the paper and nobody gets hurt!” Why? Because storytellers have something to say that comes from their aliveness, which is what people most want to feel and connect with. Sharing our stories out loud brings them to light and life, and  encourages us to do what most folks fear more than snakes: stand up and speak up in public.   Story spoken aloud is what we leave of ourselves in another person. A story is an intimate lasting legacy, a permanent inheritance much like a vow or an oath. When we share our stories out loud, we connect with each other, we belong to each other. We might not realize it but we are creating a verbal promise, a vow, an oath of belonging. Think about how many times we've heard  someone say, "Repeat after me: I solemnly swear..." Marrying couples pledge faithfulness through the challenges and joys of marriage. Lawyers uphold the law, maintain client confidentiality, and act as an officer of the court. Doctors focus on ethics, patient care and societal responsibilities. Politicians preserve and defend the Constitution. US military support and defend the Constitution against all enemies. Immigrants becoming US citizens swear the Oath of Allegiance to the United States during a formal naturalization ceremony. From the time we are children in school we recite The Pledge of Allegiance, a patriotic promise of loyalty to the United States flag and the republic for which it stands. What happens when we share our stories out loud? They become real. We say what we mean, we mean what we say. We—and those hearing us—know what we stand for and what we won't stand for. Yes, you might write a story but it needs to be shared out loud to enrich and include the wider world. That's the legacy of the stories we leave in those who have heard them spoken aloud.

2 Chronicles 27–28 contrasts two very different reigns and two very different outcomes. Chapter 27 highlights King Jotham, who walks faithfully before the Lord, strengthens Judah, and grows in power because he orders his ways before God. In chapter 28, King Ahaz chooses the opposite path—rejecting God's ways, embracing idolatry, and relying on foreign powers instead of the Lord. His choices bring defeat, loss, and deep spiritual decline to the nation. Together, these chapters reveal a clear lesson: obedience builds strength and stability, but compromise and fear lead to destruction. The direction of the heart shapes the destiny of a leader and a nation.

Start Your Transformation Now In this follow-up episode of The Jim Fortin Podcast, Jim Fortin returns to the provocative theme of ego death introduced in Part 1, this time going deeper into the mechanics of ego identification and why most people remain trapped inside it. Drawing from shamanic teachings, brain science, and deeply personal stories—including the moment a doctor told him he was in heart failure—Jim explains that fear is not a personal flaw but the energy of separation, a byproduct of the ego. Every limitation, every story of "I'm not good enough," every belief system that keeps us small, is rooted in ego. And all of it, Jim insists, was learned. Jim distinguishes between transformation and transcendence, sharing why he is now calling himself and his listeners toward something even deeper: moving beyond the identity of ego altogether. He revisits the habits of the mind that keep the ego alive, explains why love itself gets hijacked by ego, and offers a powerful shamanic reframe—that the soul is the witness, the parent watching the child, the light that dissolves the darkness of the ego. The episode also introduces Soul Forge, Jim's new program designed to help people identify and dissolve the ego's grip on their subconscious patterns.  If Part 1 opened the door, Part 2 walks you through it. Listen and let this one sit with you.  What You'll Discover in This Episode:  (02:53) Fear is not personal—it's the energy of separation Why every fear you entertain is ego-based, not soul-based, and how understanding this distinction begins to dissolve fear's power over your life.  (05:47) The habit of knowing yourself as ego How we become so deeply conditioned to identify as our ego that we forget there's a soulful being underneath—and why recognition is the first step to breaking the cycle.  (09:13) Identity, ego, and the question "Who would I be without me?" Through a powerful client story, Jim illustrates how ego identity quietly runs our lives and why releasing it doesn't leave you empty—it makes you present.  (12:04) Awareness is the light that dissolves ego Why your ego cannot survive scrutiny and observation, and how shifting from ego to soul as your primary vantage point changes what's possible for you.  (18:03) The soul as parent, the ego as child A vivid metaphor for understanding the soul's role as observer—watching the ego's drama without being consumed by it and gently calling you toward expansion.  (24:30) You don't need a birthday—you have an incarnation date Why recognizing that you've never truly died shifts your operating frequency from ego fear to soulful power, and what it really means to become more spiritual.  Listen, apply, and enjoy!  Transformational Takeaway  You don't need to destroy your ego. You need to stop believing that it is you. Every fear, every limitation, every "I'm not good enough" belongs to the ego—a learned identity formed in childhood that no longer serves you. You are the soul observing the ego, present and aware, knowing everything is going to be fine. You have an incarnation date, not a birth date. You have never truly died. Stop fighting the ego. Simply become aware. Awareness is the light. Flip the switch.  Mentioned Resources: https://www.jimfortin.com/soul Let's Connect:  Instagram | Facebook | YouTube | LinkedIn  LIKED THE EPISODE?  If you're the kind of person who likes to help others, then share this with your friends and family.

In this podcast for Christian college girls, you will learn to find GOD’S path for your college journey, and graduate with no loans or debt! I get it! It is so tough doing things the world‘s way, when everybody else is doing life without God and in their own strength, making poor choices, and taking out loans. So, if you’re ready to stop dreading making decisions, and find EASY solutions to help you pay for college while following His path for your life, this podcast is for you! Hey there! I’m Kara Walker, a twenty-something entrepreneur, amateur snowboarder, recovering over-achiever, and debt-free college graduate. In college, I too was a stressed college student, looking for money and mental peace. I wondered if there were other ways to pay for college besides loans, and wished for clear direction on how to make college and career decisions! Not only was I worried about drowning in debt, but also afraid I hadn’t heard Jesus correctly. Was I studying the wrong thing? Was I completely off track? I felt semi-out of control and was spiraling, until I learned how to hear from God and follow His direction. He guided me and gave me the stepping stones to pay for college. Scholarships, grants, testing out of classes, and other weird school hacks got me through debt-free! And, I’m here to teach you HOW to do this, too. If you are ready to find answers about your future, have an intimate and fruitful relationship with Jesus, and have enough money to KILL it at college, this pod is for you! So grab your cold brew and TI-89, and listen in on the most stress-free and debt-free class you’ve ever attended: this is Money and Mental Peace.

The Fear of Aging and Body Image isn't really about wrinkles, weight, or appearance. It's about something much deeper.In this episode, we explore how anxiety around aging and body image issues are often rooted in the fear of rejection and the need for approval. When we believe we're only acceptable if we look a certain way, we begin changing ourselves to feel safe — not authentic.

Hosts Kevin Palmieri and Alan Lazaros break down the uncomfortable reality that real success rarely feels exciting while you are building it. Through years of personal growth, entrepreneurship, and coaching high performers, they have learned that mastery is less about motivation and more about structure, repetition, and identity.

Fear is expensive. In 2025, manufacturers delayed billions in capital projects because anxiety, not data, drove business decisions.But 2026 is different. Tax incentives expire mid-year, borrowing costs are down, and the hard data shows CapEx accelerating at 3-4%. The companies acting on facts while others remain frozen are the ones positioned to gain market share, capture expiring tax benefits, and pull ahead.This episode comes to you live from the A3 Forum 2026, where the message is clear: 2026 isn't about waiting for certainty. It's about preparing for complexity with multiple strategies, acting on hard economic data, and recognizing that technology will solve the labor shortage. You'll hear why geopolitics can no longer be ignored and why every manufacturing company needs dedicated monitoring and scenario-based planning to navigate constant disruption. We dig into why America's $1+ trillion manufacturing investment boom is creating career opportunities that rival the tech industry and why the outdated narrative around manufacturing jobs is costing the industry the next generation of talent. Plus, we explore how automation and robotics are becoming the central solution for critical challenges and how theme park robotics taught the industry the power of asking “how” instead of “no”.In this episode, find out:Why 2026 is transitioning from a year of uncertainty to a year of complexityHow to become a value-added partner instead of a transactional sellerHow America's $1+ trillion manufacturing investment is rebuilding domestic capabilityWhy manufacturing careers now offer competitive tech-level salariesWhy 92% of manufacturing CEOs prioritize smart manufacturing as their top growth strategyThe impact of expiring tax incentives on CapEx decision-making urgencyWhy AI has shifted from hype to practical implementation questionsHow theme park robotics pioneered human-robot collaboration and safety standardsWhy the answer should be "how" instead of "no" when facing unconventional challengesEnjoying the show?

It's feedback from Manufacturing All-Stars like you that keeps us going!Tweetable Quotes:“We are in a manufacturing revolution, but most people don't realize it yet. More importantly, America is starting to learn how to rebuild and manufacture its own goods. We are starting the process to build and AI is a tool that will help close that chasm.” – Bob Little“If 2025 was marked as a year of uncertainty, I think we are now far enough into the process to recognize that it's transitioning to a year of complexity in 2026. You have to be prepared for a variety of different scenarios. You have to treat it almost like war gaming, if you think about it.” – Alex Chausovsky, “92% of manufacturing CEOs interviewed by Deloitte said smart automation or smart manufacturing...

Starting sounds simple… until it's time to actually do it. In Episode 248, Jacqueline gets honest about something that often hides beneath our ambitions, ideas, and good intentions: the courage it takes to begin. We may talk about "just starting" all the time, but the reality? Stepping away from comfort—even comfortable stuckness—requires bravery. And in this episode, Jacqueline breaks down what that courage really looks like, how to build it, and how to use it in a way that feels honest and sustainable. This conversation is another "grandbaby" of the rich dialogue with Dallas Gordon in Episode 245, where the theme of multiple beginnings and evolving identities sparked this deeper dive. Inside this episode, you'll explore: 1. You Can Start Over—More Than Once You're not tied to old stories, old paths, or old roles. Jacqueline shares real examples (including from Dallas' many "lives") showing why new beginnings are not a sign of instability—they're a sign of permission. 2. Starting From Scratch Isn't Failure—It's Strategy Whether you're launching something new, restarting after a pause, or finally stepping into visibility, "scratch" isn't empty. You bring experience, wisdom, and tools that make each beginning stronger. 3. Fear, Uncertainty, and Imposter Syndrome Don't Disqualify You They make you human. You can take action with butterflies in your stomach. You can decide with imperfect information. Courage isn't the absence of fear—it's movement despite of it. This episode closes out a month inspired by Episode 245 with Dallas Gordon—an exploration of beginnings, reinvention, and visibility. If you missed that conversation, catch it at JacquelineMBaker.com/245. Next month kicks off with a powerful new visibility conversation and continues with three in-depth solo episodes to help you get visible in ways that align with who you truly are. Let this episode be your reminder: starting isn't easy—but you're worth the experience.

What's the antidote to anxiety?In this episode, I explain that energy—especially nonverbal communication—plays a powerful role in how adults connect with toddlers. Fear, anxiety, and worry about new situations or repeated challenging routines (like naptime) subtly shape our tone, body language, and facial expressions, which children quickly mirror. Rather than trying to eliminate anxiety by achieving better outcomes, I emphasize that the true antidote to anxiety is acceptance of the moment as it is.

Fear and mental blocks can make it feel like your athlete is going backward. You see her working hard. You see her trying. And still, the skills are not sticking.If you are in that spot, you are not alone.When blocks seem to get worse, it usually means she is still in the awareness phase. She has not fully learned what her brain needs yet. Instead of asking why this is happening, start asking what it is teaching her. The hard days are full of clues. Have her reflect on what went well, what did not go well, and what she learned. That is where growth starts.When she hesitates or pulls back on a skill, that is her brain trying to protect her. You cannot force safety. Instead, ask one simple question. What can I do? Maybe that means a lower beam. Maybe it means a spot. Maybe it means going back a step and getting more safe reps. Confidence builds through repeated success, not pressure.Think of confidence like a bank account. Every small win adds to it. Every forced attempt that ends in fear takes away from it. Protect that bank. Praise effort. Celebrate tiny progress. Even if it feels small to you, it matters to her brain.Trust takes time. She has to build a better relationship with herself. That means patience. That means kinder self talk. The more she shows up for herself, the more self trust will grow.If you are stuck focusing on getting the skill back right now, try shifting your focus to effort and learning. When the pressure to reach the outcome drops, progress often follows.In this episode, you will hear • Why blocks can feel worse before they get better • How asking “What can I do?” rebuilds confidence • Why safe repetitions matter more than forcing skills • How shifting away from outcome focus helps skills stickIn this week's episode of the PerformHappy Podcast, I share how awareness, patience, and small daily wins can help your athlete rebuild confidence and trust herself again.Learn exactly what to say and do to guide your athlete through a mental block with my new book "Parenting Through Mental Blocks" Order your copy today: https://a.co/d/g990BurFollow me on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/complete_performance/ Join my FaceBook page: https://www.facebook.com/completeperformancecoaching/ Check out my website: https://completeperformancecoaching.com/Write to me!

Send a textAnd a voice from heaven said, “This is my Son, whom I love; with him I am well pleased.” Matt 3:17 And without faith it is impossible to please God, because anyone who comes to him must believe that he exists and that he rewards those who earnestly seek him.  Hebrews 11:6 NIVFaith is not: Busyness  So we make it our goal to please Him,  2 Corinthians 5:9a NIVEnoch walked faithfully with God; then he was no more, because God took him away. Genesis 5:24 Faith is not a: Moment For we live by faith, not by sight.  2 Corinthians 5:7 Faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. Hebrews 11:1Faith: Fades when: Fear  grows louder3 ways to have AMAZING faith!1. Amazing faith comes from: Hearing  GodSo faith comes from what is heard, and what is heard comes through the message about Christ. Romans 10:172. Amazing faith comes from: Remembering  God“We will tell the next generation the praiseworthy deeds of the Lord,his power, and the wonders he has done…so the next generation would know them…and they in turn would tell their children.Then they would put their trust in God.”Psalm 78:4–73. Amazing faith uses what you: Already Have(1)Then Moses answered, “What if they do not believe me or listen to my voice? For they may say, ‘The LORD has not appeared to you.'”(2)And the LORD asked him, “What is that in your hand?”“A staff,” he replied.  Exodus 4:2“He could not do any miracles there, except lay his hands on a few sick people and heal them. He was amazed at their lack of faith.  Mark 6:5–6 (NIV)“When Jesus heard this, he was amazed at him, and turning to the crowd following him, he said, ‘I tell you, I have not found such great faith even in Israel.'  Luke 7:9 (NIV)Only two different kinds of people amazed Him:  Weak faith and Strong faithWhich one are You?  Thank you for listening to the Relate Community Church podcast!

Are aliens really extraterrestrial… or something far older and more spiritual?In this episode of Nephilim Death Squad, Raven and TopLobsta are joined by author and researcher Vicki Joy Anderson to explore one of the most controversial topics in modern theology and paranormal research: the connection between alien encounters, demonic entities, and generational iniquity.Drawing from biblical scripture, spiritual warfare research, and real-world testimonies, the conversation examines whether modern UFO phenomena may have deeper supernatural roots — and how family lineage, spiritual inheritance, and unseen influences play a role in human experience.This episode dives into the overlap between UFO disclosure, deliverance theology, and biblical cosmology, asking difficult questions about deception, spiritual authority, and the nature of reality itself.

In Part 108 of The Story of Creation on the Authentic Human Podcast, Michelle Vickers shares a real-time conversation with Universal Beings — including direct communication with The Creator — exploring Consciousness, Free Will, and the true origins of human existence. This is not channeling. This is conscious conversation with universal intelligence. In this episode, we explore: • What consciousness actually is (the living history of existence) • Why free will requires exploration • How every human has full access to universal consciousness • Why access to truth was removed • The real reason humanity feels exhausted • How challenges expand your capacity and contribute to consciousness • Why judgment is not a universal energy • How healing begins in energy before the physical body • Why you are here to create a new world — not fix the old one The Creator explains that free will means you have access to every aspect of creation — every planet, every star, every dimension of universal existence. The Secret of Existence & Creation: > Intention becomes Energy. > Energy becomes Experience. >Experience expands consciousness. You are not here to wait to be saved. You are here to explore your potential and participate in the recreation of human existence. Every challenge you've faced has trained you for this role. Every experience has expanded the universal library of consciousness. If you have ever asked: Why do I exist? Why am I here now? Why do I feel called to something bigger? This episode answers that. New episodes weekly exploring universal consciousness, human origins, free will, energy architecture, and the evolution of existence.

Today, we're welcoming Bob Campana, a California-based serial entrepreneur with more than 40 years of experience building businesses across hospitality, travel, real estate, and aviation.ROBERT's WebsiteROBERT on YouTubeFrom hot tub manufacturing to founding the beloved Redwood Café in Modesto, to leading Redwood Café Tours across Europe, Asia, and Oceania, Bob's career is a living case study in adaptability, optimism, and grit.He's also the author of the book Don't Look Down! The Improbable Adventures and Battle-Tested Lessons of a Serial Entrepreneur, where he shares candid lessons learned from a lifetime of figuring it out as he went. Bob has his own entrepreneurship podcast, continuing his mission to share what really happens behind the scenes of business building.1. A Lifetime of ReinventionBob, you've built businesses in very different industries—from manufacturing to hospitality to aviation. Looking back over 40 years, what allowed you to keep reinventing yourself rather than getting stuck in one version of success?2. Risk, Fear, and the Title “Don't Look Down!”Your book title says a lot. Don't Look Down! suggests both courage and consequence. How have you learned to take risks without being reckless—and what's one moment when looking down might have stopped you if you'd let it?3. Building Places That Connect PeopleRedwood Café became more than a restaurant—it became a community hub, and now it's evolved into Redwood Café Tours around the world. What do you think makes an experience or a business truly memorable to people? (Bob recommends two books. “Moments of Truth: How the SAS President and CEO Adapted to the New Customer-Driven Economy” by Jan Carlzon. “Setting the Table: The Transforming Power of Hospitality in Business” by Danny Meyer.)4. Lessons Earned the Hard WayYour book promises “battle-tested lessons,” not theory. What are one or two hard-earned truths about entrepreneurship that you wish more people understood before they start their first venture?5. What's Next—and Why Keep Going?You're still expanding into real estate and aircraft leasing, writing books, and launching a podcast. What keeps you energized at this stage—and what advice would you give to entrepreneurs who wonder if it's too late to start something new?Bob, if you could leave our listeners with one mindset or principle that's helped you navigate uncertainty over four decades, what would it be?

In this episode of the Anatomy of Change podcast, Seth Studley discusses the importance of taking action rather than waiting to feel ready. He emphasizes that readiness is a result of movement and that peace can be found even in the midst of pressure. Through personal anecdotes and quotes from notable figures, Seth encourages listeners to embrace their fears and take steps towards their goals, highlighting that clarity and confidence come from action, not waiting. Takeaways Nothing changes if nothing changes. Readiness is not something you wait for; it comes after action. Peace can exist even in stressful situations. Clarity comes from movement, not from waiting. You need courage to take the next step, not certainty. Fear doesn't disappear; it is managed through experience. You are not behind; you are invited to move. Waiting for the perfect moment is a myth. Your nervous system rewards evidence from experience. Trusting in a higher power can provide peace in uncertainty. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Spiritual liberation is not about rearranging the contents of the psyche but about stepping back and observing the psyche with clarity. If you do so, you will see that most emotional and mental suffering is rooted in fear: fear of failure, loss, and rejection. Spiritual freedom requires the courage to look upward toward truth, God, and the vastness of the universe while letting go of the deep internal fears that drive our actions. Liberation is not earned through outer success, control, or acceptance from others, but by choosing to be free from the tyranny of the personal self. © Sounds True Inc. Episodes: © 2026 Michael A.
