What if the fear you're avoiding is actually the key to your growth? In this episode, I sit down with Akshay Nanavati, a Marine Corps veteran, ultra-endurance athlete, and author of Fearvana. We explore how fear, suffering, and stillness can become powerful tools for transformation.
Why fear isn't the enemy – it's fuel for mastery
The difference between pain, suffering, and unnecessary suffering
Lessons from 60 days solo in Antarctica
The power of stillness, and what true stillness reveals about ourselves
This is a raw and real conversation about what it takes to go to your sacred edge … and to come back with something deeper than success: peace and true fulfillment.
