Brad, today's topic happens to be the title of your book, Facing the Dragon, Facing Your Fears,

set the table for our listeners.

We know fear is an epidemic in our world, but set the table for

our listeners so they'll know how to frame this conversation. Yeah, it's great to be here, guys.

Thanks for having me. Really, just fear is an opportunity for us to, you know, I like to figure out a way

to leverage our fear. And really, facing your dragon is understanding how to find face and ride

your dragon very

simply so it's been in many fables joseph campbell but very simply that the whole entire platform

of the face your dragon platform is based on the quote the cave you fear to enter holds the

treasure you seek so what you're most afraid of is most of the time your gift to the world, your gift to humanity and your moneymaker. Right, exactly. Say that quote again. I want that to sink in. I think it's beautiful. Yeah, it's a good one. The cave you fear to enter holds the treasure you seek. Exactly. Darth Vader. Well, as far as Luke goes, right? That's right.

Okay, well, dig down and take it apart for us.
