What if you could turn discomfort into your greatest ally? Join us as we navigate the uncomfortable with Sterling Hawkins, author of Hunting Discomfort and founder of the #nomatterwhat movement. Sterling's inspiring personal journey - swinging from the heights of a penthouse to the humility of his parents' house - led to transformative discoveries about embracing discomfort in order to live authentically.

Ever wondered how those uncomfortable feelings and situations that we usually avoid can actually serve us? Dive into the episode as we dissect our discomfort defaults, exploring how they can limit us. Sterling uncovers how these self-imposed limitations can be overcome, revealing the wisdom behind his mother's saying, 'the way out is through'. The second half of our conversation then shifts to organizational discomfort. With insights from research, we scrutinize how chronic avoidance of discomfort can hinder not just personal, but also professional growth.

Bringing it back to the personal level, Sterling introduces his innovative #nomatterwhat system, designed to guide individuals and companies on the discomfort-bearing journey to achieve their goals. Not just a theoretical discussion, we also share our own commitments - our 'No Matter What' plans - demonstrating the power of accountability in overcoming obstacles, no matter how daunting. Embark with us on this journey to hunt discomfort, and discover how it can pave the way to a life of freedom and authenticity.
