001. Kristen Ulmer on Transforming Fear and Anxiety, Peak Performance and Zen

Sep 10, 2020

A former pro athlete, extreme skier Kristen Ulmer is an expert on fear and anxiety. The author of The Art of Fear: Why Conquering Fear Won’t Work, and What to Do Instead, Kristen will give you an exact definition of why some people struggle with fear and anxiety and others don’t. And she’ll teach you how to deal with issues from the bottom up to get better results.

In this interview, we discuss:

• What is causing the fear and anxiety crisis we have today, and how the patterns start really young.
• Using fear as a motivator to achieve peak performance.
• Why only focusing on the positive does not help.
• Why you should never use the word fear and overcome in the same sentence ever again.
