If you're like me, when you were a young boy, you had dreams of growing up to be an American hero and/or a spy like James Bond. But what does that actually mean in real life and, what does it take? My guest today is a man who has done just that. His name is Dave Fielding, Green Beret turned American Spy. And, today, he shares some of his insight into the world of US intelligence including what we can do to protect ourselves and maintain our rights. We talk about how arrogance hurts you but also how it might be able to help, how the common citizen deciphers between false and accurate information, the importance of owning your shit, the power of asking yourself, "why" in all things, and how self-awareness leads to a fulfilled life.
