Paul Assaiante: Face Your Fear [The Knowledge Project Ep. 183]

Shane Parrish: I want to start with running to the roar, which is one of the concepts that you have that I absolutely love. What does it mean to run to the roar?

Paul Assaiante: Yeah, so that’s an interesting question to kick off with. When I was really getting into the self-exploration, I was meeting with my shrink. I’m a neurotic mess, and he said to me one day, “You’re really an interesting dude because I’ve never met anybody who is so conflict avoidant. You run from your shadow. And yet on weekends, you lead players into highly emotional competitive environments.”
