Get Out of Your Own Way with Dave Hollis

Are you thinking about making a big change in your life? Have you felt like you needed to leave something you've known for something you needed? Enter my next guest, husband, father, author, and entrepreneur, Dave Hollis. The former Disney film distribution chief responsible for the relaunch of the Star Wars franchise, the Avengers series, and mega-hits like Frozen and Beauty and the Beast, left his prestigious post at Disney last year to lead The Hollis Company along his wife Rachel. This episode is packed with some many powerful pearls of wisdom. We get into how to weather the storm of uncertainty and trailblazing. Dave shares how he's dealt with struggle, in particular something we all need to be reminded of: struggle doesn't mean we're broken, it means we're human.  We go deep into the idea of fulfillment, a keystone subject of his book Get Out of Your Own Way: A Skeptics Guide to Growth and Fulfillment and Dave helps us breakdown old narratives and breaking through the status quo.
