Episode 214: Your Everest Is Calling (and You Already Know What It Is) with Mike Tobin

from I Dare You Podcast · host Darrin Johnson

If you have anything in your life right now that feels too big, too scary, or too far away, this episode is for you. Because today on I Dare You, you’re going to hear from FOX News Senior Correspondent Mike Tobin, who just did something most people will never even attempt: he summited Mount Everest. Mike has reported from some of the most intense places on earth. But this time, the hotspot was 29,032 feet above sea level. Mike’s Everest journey is documented in the FOX Nation special “Everest: Journey to the Top of the World.” But this is not an “epic adventure” conversation. This is a how do you do hard things when you’re tired, busy, doubting yourself, and you don’t have perfect conditions conversation. In this episode, you’ll learn: How to stop negotiating with your excuses and replace “I can’t” with a plan you can execute. How to handle self-doubt when it hits you like a freight train, and why it always shows up right before something meaningful. How to train for the mountain you want to climb  A simple way to think about courage: not as a personality trait, but as a series of choices you make before the moment arrives.   And then there’s this: when Mike reached the summit, he did 22 pushups to honor veterans and first responders and to shine a light on the reality of veteran suicide.  At the end, Mike gives you an I Dare You challenge that might be the permission slip you’ve been waiting for. Pick the thing that keeps rattling around in your head. Then hit play and listen to this episode.
