127: Be Your Own First Responder with Tony Blauer

Tony Blauer is the founder of Blauer Tactical and the S.P.E.A.R. System of self-defense. A world-renowned self-defense expert and law enforcement trainer, Tony has studied fear and how our bodies use fear to keep us safe. In this episode, Tony and I cover a wide range of topics including:  To be the best version of yourself, you need self-awareness.  To make good decisions, you need to manage your fear. How fear can become fuel for growth.  Why we often outsource our safety in ways that aren't so obvious.  How to be the one, you must practice courage and you can't be courageous without being afraid.    It's a great episode full of solid advice from an industry leader.    Follow Tony on IG at @tonyblauer and learn more at blauerspear.com and knowfearnow.com   Don't forget to follow me on IG @thesquadroom and please consider leaving a review if you enjoyed this episode.    A special thanks to our sponsors for this episode, Hard to Kill Fitness.
