My guest in this podcast is Tommy Baker,  and we had a very interesting conversation about his book entitled “The Leap of Your Life: How to Redefine Risk, Quit Waiting For ‘Someday,’ and Live Boldly”

In the interview, we talk about  fear, risk and urgency. He believes in  building the muscle, and the emotional habit of leaning into your fear and low stakes situations and using those  for higher stakes situations in your life, your business, your career and your relationships.

THE BOOK

What are you waiting for? The first lines of the Leap say it all: we don’t lack insights or clarity —we lack courage. A siren call for those who are ready for a bigger life.

There’s a leap in your life you must take, but you’ve been waiting. Every day you put it off —fear starts to win a little more and talk you out of it. Until one day, it’s gone. There is no more enthusiasm. There is no more spark. Another desire, another dream has faded. The Leap of Your Life: How to Redefine Risk, Quit Waiting For ‘Someday,’ and Live Boldly is my brand new book about making bold decisions and never looking back.
