People say “never meet your heroes.”
I actually think you should.
Because the moment you meet them, you realise something important: they’re not made of different stuff. They’re normal people - with normal insecurities, normal moods, normal "off days". The “hero” version is often a persona… switched on when the lights are on.
In this solo episode, I break down why meeting your heroes can be weirdly freeing, because it removes the pedestal, closes the gap, and reminds you that what you admire in them is something you can build in yourself.
We also get into something most people ignore: energy management. The ability to regulate your state, protect your energy, and then turn it on when it matters - when you’re leading, creating, showing up for your family, or stepping into a room that needs you at your best.
Because the real goal isn’t to worship people from a distance.
It’s to learn how to become the person you respect.
