Hold the Standard Podcast: Ep. 6 Argues for Skill Transfer

July 15, 2021 | By

Have you listened to the Hold the Standard audio docuseries yet?

The mission of the platform is to investigate how we navigate life’s most difficult and important elements by taking up more leadership. Each episode of ‘Season 1’ is a short audio experience that combines expert interviews and real world insight into attributes available to those who pursue their highest expression. 

Episode 6 buttons up the ultimate justification for pursuing our peak expression with the claim that the skills one develops in pursuit are highly transferable. Logan confronts a common reason folks shy away from pursuing our peak expression, which is the fear of failure. Logan claims that vulnerably attempting greatness offers the utility of skill transferability whether you’re “successful” or not.

The episode opens with wise words from Admiral William H. McRaven and a key point from business mogul, Gary V. The conversation progresses with impactful insights from interviews with Top Chef All-star, Antonia Lofaso, former gymnast, Carl Paoli, and developmental psychologist, Dr. Cara Miller.

This episode marks the first time listeners hear from an interview with former UFC fighter, actor, entrepreneur, Tait Fletcher, and has a return appearance from world-renown photographer, Vava Ribiero. There are also surprise clips from Brené Brown and Jordan Peterson.

 

Thank you for choosing leadership and enjoy the show.
