Every one of us has our special brand of self-sabotage holding us back from having everything we REALLY want out of life. We’ve all heard the saying that everything you could ever wish for is on the other side of fear, and my guest today breaks down the fundamental truths of that statement, and most importantly, what we normal folks can do about it.
Liam Naden is a great example of someone who has been through a joyful rebellion of his own. He spent the first half of his life working hard to achieve the success he’d always wanted, only to realize the life that accompanied all of that success made him miserable and stressed him out to the point where he lost everything but the clothes on his back.

Unlocking Your Brain's Creative Potential: The Science Behind True Fulfillment
In this episode, host James welcomes guest Liam Naden to discuss how our brains are naturally wired for success and fulfillment through a concept he dubs 'joyful rebellion.' Despite having achieved significant success, Liam found himself stressed and unfulfilled, leading to a dramatic turnaround where he lost nearly everything.
Through this experience, Liam discovered that many people mistakenly rely on the survival parts of their brain, which is not equipped to solve complex life issues. He proposes that by eliminating fear and stress triggers and allowing our creative brain to guide us, we can achieve true fulfillment and solve life's problems more effectively. Liam offers insights into the science behind this concept, drawing on biology and spirituality, and provides actionable steps for listeners to better utilize their brain's potential.
