Most people think resilience is the key to success—but what if that’s only half the story? If you're just "bouncing back" from challenges, you're playing defense. 

As a high-performing leader, you’re constantly facing pushback, high-stakes decisions, and relentless pressure. You prepare, you deliver, and yet—someone in the room still tears your work apart. Do you let it shake your confidence? Or do you turn that moment into a growth accelerator? This episode unveils the science-backed mindset shift that will make you unstoppable.


By the end of today’s episode with 2 anti-fragility experts you will know:


🎯 How to Rewire Your Response to Pressure to see stress as fuel for peak performance, rather than a threat.


💡 The Hidden Power of Negative Visualization: and what elite performers do to improve their performance


🔥 How to Engineer Anti-Fragile Confidence using a game-changing framework that top athletes, military leaders, and executives use to thrive under uncertainty.
