  • #27 | S2 E10: WORK SHOULDN'T SUCK...BUT - How to Find Your People and Change Your Work Culture

    So many are quietly struggling at work; not because they lack talent, but because they can’t seem to find “their people.” In this episode, we break down why the modern workplace leaves so many professionals feeling isolated, under-supported, and unsure where they belong.

    You’ll learn how to build meaningful connection even in disconnected cultures, how to shift from waiting for community to creating it, and why your next big move might come from one conversation with the right person.

    Work shouldn’t suck… but for most of us, it does at some point. In this episode, we get brutally honest about the moments when work drains you: dreading Mondays, living for the weekend, crying before your shift, or relying on a mouse-jiggler just to survive the day.

    From Brooke’s door-to-door sales breakdowns, to Hayden’s realization that “cool co-workers” can’t fix miserable work, this episode highlights why so many of us feel stuck and what you can actually do about it.

    You’ll learn:

    ✨ The real reasons jobs start to feel meaningless or overwhelming
    ✨ How to separate your skills from the job that’s draining you
    ✨ A practical inventory exercise to figure out what needs to change
    ✨ Why gratitude, connection, and knowing your worth re-shape your work life
    ✨ How to recognize when it’s time to stay, change something, or walk away

    Whether your job is mildly disappointing or soul-sucking, this episode gives you the tools, perspective, and courage to take your power back.

    If you’ve ever felt like work is crushing you, this one’s for you.

    Fear is universal, but most of us are only scratching the surface of what we’re truly battling. In this mind-blowing conversation, empowerment mentor Sarah Jones breaks down the FOUR types of fear you’ve never been taught to recognize and how they quietly control your choices, your relationships, and even your income ceiling: 

    1. Societal
    2. Inherited
    3. Empathic
    4. Experiential

    Together, we unpack:

    🔥 Why fear is like oxygen, ever-present, yet massively misunderstood

    🔥 The real reason you keep repeating the same patterns in relationships, money, or career

    🔥 How generational and inherited fears secretly drive your beliefs

    🔥 What it actually looks like to run toward fear instead of away from it (the “Be the Bison” method)

    🔥 The ego cycle vs. humility cycle: how doubt, indifference, and pride keep us stuck

    🔥 A step-by-step acronym you can use TODAY to identify and remove fear at the root

    If you’ve ever said “I don’t know why I’m stuck,” THIS is your blueprint.

  • #23 | S2 E6: FEAR LESS - The Fear of Being Seen: Defeating the Story Fear Is Telling You

    What if the only thing keeping you “invisible” is the story fear keeps whispering about who you are?
     

    In this episode, we break down the hidden fears that hold high-achievers back — the fear of being ignored, the fear of being seen, and the fear of showing up as your real self.

    Using insights from fighter pilots, corporate leadership, and our own raw personal stories, they reveal why fear feels so real… and how you can rewrite the script starting today.

    You’ll Learn:

    • ✅ Why fear convinces you that playing small is “safer”
    • ✅ How the four “Fear Critics” quietly run your decisions
    • ✅ The moment fear shrinks (hint: it’s not after the challenge — it’s during)
    • ✅ How to stop rejecting yourself before anyone else does
    • ✅ A simple mindset shift to move from hiding → unstoppable

    If you’re tired of overthinking, shrinking, second-guessing, or waiting for the “right moment” to go after what you want… this episode will flip the fear for you.

    Take action. Get seen. Become unstoppable.

  • #22 | S2 E5: FEAR LESS - Re-branding Fear Because It Is Here To Stay

    After 10 months of building Fraud to Fearless virtually, we finally meet in person — and nothing goes as planned. From spilled lattes and missing phones to a soundproof “Death Star” studio they can’t figure out, this episode is equal parts chaos, laughter, and breakthrough.

    But beneath the bloopers is something deeper: fear — what it really looks like, how it holds us back, and how to face it head-on.

    Brooke opens up about leaving corporate America as a single mom and learning to trust her calling. Hayden reflects on how fear never disappears — it just changes form — and why success means learning to move through it anyway. Together, they unpack:

    ✨ The truth that fear never leaves — and why that’s okay
     💡 How to “predict your saboteurs” before they derail your goals
     💪 What resilience looks like when everything goes wrong
     🔥 Why identity (who you are) matters more than reputation

    Plus, Brooke shares the rock-climbing lesson that changed her mindset forever, and Hayden gets vulnerable about fatherhood, failure, and the power of showing up scared.

    This is the first episode of the FEAR LESS mini-series — a real-time, unfiltered look at what it means to fear less and live more.
