316: Being Bold with Uncle Fred


Listen Later

What does it mean to be bold, and why is it such an important characteristic to have—not just for you, but for your kids?

I don't know about you, but I want my kids to grab life big. I want them to follow their dreams and seize all the opportunities that life has to offer. I want them to try new things, explore the world, start a new business, fall in love, and become the best possible versions of themselves.

But in order for that to happen, I need to set a good example AND create an environment where they can thrive!

The problem is, being bold isn't always easy—especially in today's climate, where everyone has a different POV. It seems that speaking your truth or attempting to have an open dialogue around conflicting subjects is likely to get you into trouble. So, should we just stay silent? How do we speak up and act boldly with so much fear around being silenced or shunned?

To explore this topic, I'm speaking with Fred Joyal, author of Superbold: From Under-Confident to Charismatic in 90 Days, who is proof that boldness can be learned.

Fred went from an extremely shy person (too timid to make a phone call) and transformed himself into someone who has done stand-up comedy, spoken to audiences of 5,000+, met dozens of celebrities, and, just by being bold, found love, joy, passion, and success.

If that's the type of life you imagine for your kids, don't miss my conversation with Fred Joyal!
