In this episode, Jason explores the powerful concept of "stimulus, gap, response," drawing from stoicism and Viktor Frankl's teachings in Man's Search for Meaning. He challenges listeners to consider how long they sit in the space between stimulus and response, arguing that personal growth, leadership, and character development all happen in that gap. Through real-life examples—from parenting moments at home to difficult situations in the dental office—Jason highlights how pausing before reacting leads to more intentional and effective outcomes. Whether it's navigating spilled milk or handling a team accountability issue, this episode invites listeners to slow down, reflect, and choose their response with purpose.
