086 It Doesn't Feel Like Fear. It Feels Like Conviction with Slade Combs
About this episode
Slade Combs discusses how our deepest fears often disguise themselves as conviction and the impact of personal experiences on our choices.
Most of us don’t think we’re living from fear. We think we’re making rational decisions, trusting our instincts, following our convictions. Former New York advertising executive Slade Combs says the deepest fears in our lives don’t usually feel like fear at all. They quietly shape the way we see the world, the choices we make, and even the lives we build. After a health scare forced him to question everything, Slade walked away from a successful career to discover what was really driving him. This conversation explores fear, purpose, childhood experiences, and why the hardest parts of our lives can sometimes become our greatest gift.
