2. What If Nothing Is Holding You Back? / Kensington Rhodes on Fear, Fulfillment & Clarity

What if fear wasn’t running the show? In this episode, I sit down with Kensington Rhodes to unpack limiting beliefs, pivotal decisions, and what happens when you give yourself full permission to chase what matters. We talk fulfillment vs. happiness, the trap of "reaching your potential," and redefining success on your own terms. Kensington also shares lessons from building Viddy Studio and how travel shaped his lens on life.
