The Journey with Clayton Nelson
The mission of this podcast is to build a supportive community where we explore the transformative journeys of our guests, celebrating the challenges they've overcome and the wisdom gained. Through authentic storytelling, I aim to inspire and uplift listeners, urging them to persevere through challenging times by drawing strength from others. It is my goal to ignite a spark within each listener, prompting them to reflect on the past storms they have weathered, recognize the lessons and personal growth they have experienced, and empower them to endure future challenges. By sharing our own mistakes and failures, I want to create a ripple effect, enabling others to learn and grow so they can reach their goals. I want to help people realize that if you don't quit, you can't lose. Keep showing up.

This One Thing Held Me Back My Entire Life (How It's Getting Fixed) | Ep. 163
This week, I opened up to the team about something that’s held me back my entire life: self-confidence. I share a story about my football career, the ride home from my last game, and the sick feeling of knowing I never fully believed in myself.
Ran into a friend from college couple weeks back and he asked me why I’m not scared to do what I’m doing now. I thought back to a conversation I had with my dad just a week before, when he told me his biggest regret: not taking more risks when he was young. That hit me hard.
In this episode, I talk about how that moment shifted my perspective and why I refuse to make the same mistake. I’ve already made the hard choice to bet on myself—so why waste energy doubting now? We don’t have time to not believe in ourselves. If you’ve ever held back because of fear or doubt, this one’s for you.
