→ Experiments to find freedom: https://www.artofaccomplishment.com/experiments

Most people never realize their deepest beliefs are holding them hostage. Joe Hudson shares a radical truth from 30 years of coaching the world's highest performers: The moment you stop defending who you think you are, you become truly free.

Highlights:
• The meeting room test: How fear instantly creates either/or thinking
• Stanford's "smart kid" study that changed everything we know about praise
• Why millionaires who believe "I'm successful" often plateau
• The ocean vs. rock metaphor that transforms how you handle criticism
• What actually happens when you realize you're both an asshole AND deeply loving
• The terrifying moment when meaning dissolves—and why it's actually liberation

"A sword attacks the ocean, and the ocean doesn't care."

Wanting is one of our most powerful levers for change. Not what you want, but your relationship to wanting itself. In this episode, Joe sits down with AOA facilitator Alexa Kistler (and Brett’s wife) to unpack why so many people are at war with their desires and how ending that war offers a path out of suffering.

They discuss:

• Wanting, craving, and aversion
• Childhood patterns that take us away from wanting
• Identity shifts when you allow yourself to want
• How not owning desire makes you more manipulable, not less
• Why chasing outcomes creates suffering, even when you succeed

Research mentioned:

• Women are more agreeable than men across cultures

Joe reveals the counterintuitive reason you feel 'stuck' and can't seem to move forward on your goals. It has nothing to do with a lack of options and everything to do with a fear of consequences. These insights come from Joe's three decades of working intimately with some of the world's most productive people, from billionaires to Fortune 500 CEOs, and uncovering the emotional patterns that drive procrastination.
