Have you ever looked back and wished you'd been braver? Of course, you have. It's because we humans are wired for safety; to focus more on what we could lose than on what we could gain - to steer away from short-term risks and toward whatever shores up our sense of security. But at life's end, most people regret far more the risks they didn't take than those they did. In this podcast, I share some of the research from Chapter 2 of Stop Playing Safe – why you need to embrace the discomfort that living your best life ultimately requires of you and the value of daring to lean toward risk... taking the very actions your fear would sooner you didn't.
