Fear Is Not the Enemy: How Elite Performers Learn to Manage It
Fear is one of the most common topics I get asked about and one of the most misunderstood. In this episode, we explore why fear isn’t something to eliminate, but something to manage. Using the analogy of inflammation after training, we unpack how fear can signal growth and elevate our performances when interpreted correctly. Drawing from insights shared by high perfomers like Mikaela Shiffrin and Nik Wallenda, this episode examines how elite competitors use fear as a signal for presence and respect, instead of something to run from.
