Not because we lack opportunity, but because we lack the courage to face what feels difficult—whether that’s a conversation, a decision, or even an honest admission to ourselves. Drawing on personal experience, Paul reflects on the moments that shaped his life—from a health scare at 40 to a powerful shift in perspective after stepping through fear—and how those turning points weren’t driven by strategy, but by courage. He also shares a recurring pattern he sees in high-performing entrepreneurs: outward success paired with inner misalignment, where people feel stuck in lives they’ve outgrown but don’t yet have the courage to change.
