    What If Your Hardest Climb Is Within?

    In this episode, Melissa Arnot Reid shares what it really takes to climb—not just the highest peaks on Earth, but the deepest valleys within ourselves. Melissa is a world-renowned mountaineer, professional mountain guide, and the first American woman to summit Mount Everest without supplemental oxygen. She has spent years guiding others to the top of the world’s tallest mountains, but in this conversation, she opens up about an even greater challenge: facing the internal struggles that no summit can fix. We dive deep into the difference between achievement and self-worth, the pressure of proving yourself, and what happens when success doesn’t bring the validation you expect. Melissa shares the raw, untold side of her journey—the failures, the doubts, the painful past she had to confront, and the losses that forced her to reevaluate everything. She also discusses her new book, Enough, a raw and powerful memoir about what it really means to be enough, when success isn’t and the truth is harder than the summit. . Some highlights we explore: The fallacy of achievement – Why success doesn’t automatically bring happiness or contentment. "Am I good enough?" – The two questions that drove Melissa's biggest climbs—and biggest struggles. Lessons from the mountains – How extreme environments strip away who we pretend to be and reveal our true selves. The real hardest climb – The internal work of self-forgiveness, facing fear, and learning to let go of external validation. Enjoy!

    Overwhelmed by Doubt? Here’s How to Quiet the Noise and Trust Yourself

    Hey friends, Chase here. Ever had that gut feeling nudging you toward something bigger—only for fear to barge in with doubts? "What if I fail?" "What if this is the wrong move?" "What will people think?" I’ve been there. When I walked away from the U.S. Olympic Development soccer program to pursue photography, people told me I was crazy. And honestly? I wondered if they were right. But there was another voice—quieter, but just slightly louder than my fear. That whisper was enough to take the leap. Why Trusting Your Gut Feels Hard Our brains are wired for survival, not fulfillment. That’s why fear kicks in the second we consider something uncertain. But think about it—how often have you regretted following your intuition? Probably never. How to Know If You’re on the Right Path It’s simple: If it feels right in your gut, it probably is. If it feels wrong, it probably is. We spend so much energy ignoring what we know deep down. The moment you start listening, everything changes. Stop Following Someone Else’s Map Trying to live by someone else’s playbook has an expiration date. It might feel safe, but eventually, you’ll realize you’re off course. The good news? You don’t have to wait to start. Take the first step—messy, awkward, scared. Just start. Be 1% Braver Courage isn’t about eliminating fear; it’s about being just 1% braver than it. You will make mistakes, but none of it is wasted. Every misstep is just data that brings you closer to where you’re meant to be. So when your intuition whispers—listen. The most fulfilled people do. Until next time, trust yourself. You already have the answers.

    Signs You’re Drifting Away from Your Purpose (and How to Get Back on Track)

    Hey friends, Chase here. Today, I want to talk about something we all face at some point—the moment when what once felt like a dream becomes a trap. It’s a tough place to be, but if we can recognize it early, we can turn it into an opportunity for growth and reinvention. When Success Becomes Stifling Back in 2010, I co-founded CreativeLive with a simple but ambitious idea: to give the world access to free, world-class creative education. We started small, but over time, we grew to serve tens of millions of people and raised more than $60 million from top-tier investors like Richard Branson, Reid Hoffman, and Google Ventures. At first, my unconventional background as a creator—not an MBA—was celebrated. I brought a personal brand and a community along for the ride, and it seemed like a competitive advantage. But eventually, the pressure to conform crept in. The same people who once admired my unique approach began questioning it. The Subtle Drift Away from Purpose What started as small adjustments in how I operated became a slow drift off course. It wasn’t dramatic at first—just a few degrees off. But after walking that path for long enough, I found myself far from where I wanted to be. The very thing I had built to inspire creativity felt stifling and uncreative. And here’s the thing—this story isn’t unique to me. It happens to many of us. The artist who becomes a manager. The entrepreneur buried in spreadsheets. The corporate climber who wakes up one day and wonders how they got there. If you’ve ever felt that way—or if you do in the future—this is for you. Signs It’s Time for a Change Listen to Your Gut When something feels off for too long, it’s your gut telling you it’s time to move. Ignoring that voice comes with real consequences—stress, poor health, and a fog that clouds your creativity and joy. Nothing Lasts Forever Even the most exciting roles can run their course. Dreams change, and that’s okay. Letting go of a title or identity that no longer serves you is hard, but it’s often necessary for growth. Build Your Escape Pod Early Don’t wait for a crisis to figure out your next move. Start building skills, connections, and momentum now. When it’s time to make a change, you’ll be ready to transition on your terms—not out of desperation. Embrace Change as a Constant Change is inevitable. It’s uncomfortable, but it’s almost always a catalyst for something better. When you start hearing that little voice whispering about a new chapter, don’t ignore it. Trust it. Your future self will thank you. Until next time, take care and keep pushing toward what feels true and right for you. Enjoy!
