Summary

Guest host Patrick Sweeney, the Fear Guru, is back for week 2. Now that you know that the survival instinct is driven by the amygdala, our 2 million-year-old operating system and anytime we feel a threat it tries to take over, what can you do about it? Learn the two ways that we make decisions in life – the one that leads to shame, regret and failure, and the other way, the Spartan way, that leads to growth, happiness, success and fulfillment. To know when those critical decision points present themselves you’ve got to find out what your fear tells are – that’s what Patrick shows you in this episode.
