  • #168 - Women's Sixth Sense for Danger: Converting Fear Into a Self Protection Superpower
    May 22 2025

    Most self-defense training fails women by ignoring their natural advantage. In this revealing analysis, Tim Larkin examines insights from both comedian Louis CK and Jocko Willink about women's heightened awareness of potential violence. You'll discover why women naturally assess unfamiliar men as potential threats and how this intuition—often dismissed as paranoia—is actually their greatest self-protection asset. Tim explains why traditional self-defense that trains women to be "bigger, faster, stronger" misses the point entirely, and reveals how to transform this awareness from a source of fear into a genuine superpower. This isn't about male toxicity—it's about acknowledging a reality that can save lives when properly understood and applied. Learn how to leverage this advantage instead of being controlled by fear.
