Episode #1: Jason Conde
Jason "Jay" Conde lived many years of his life with a deep fear of public speaking. Social anxiety and the fear of public speaking is often ranked on the top of the list of fears across Americans. Jay conquered this fear by recognizing the need to expand outside of his bubble, engage in situations where he was uncomfortable, and (most importantly) grow through the process. If you enjoy philosophy, this is a great episode for you. Jay brings some unique perspectives on the world we live in. Enjoy!
