Last week, in episode 23 (part 1), I introduced you to Solomon Eversole, who has the most calm and collected approach to creativity I've ever witnessed.

He also has the same approach to fear. There's no panic or frantic "hair sticking straight up" frenzy moments.

At least, that's not what you see from the outside.

Solomon fully admits that he's a nervous, anxious wreck internally. But he carries himself calmly so that the fear and panic don't overcome or cripple his potential.

And his strategy works.

With 15 years experience in the corporate fashion world (plus a few of his own collections), he's gotten so good at remaining calm in stressful situations that his demeanor spreads like wild fire through any room. His team and coworkers tell him this regularly.

You'll hear it in his voice throughout the entire interview, and I promise you'll experience the contagiousness firsthand. Within 5 minutes, I bet you feel more relaxed, inspired and ready to take on life than you have in a while.

Solomon is an awesome human being with a great view on life. I am thrilled to now call him a friend, and if I ever had to return to the corporate world, he's a man I would be thrilled to call a boss.

I hope you enjoy this episode, it's one of my absolute favorites so far.

• How behaving like the person you want to be will transform you into that person
• How to reframe your mindset around fear so it doesn’t prevent your progress
• Why we should be childlike, not childish
• Why Solomon asks himself “what’s the most loving thing I can right now” to figure out his next steps for everything
• Why you should never assume what someone wants (especially in an interview)
