Lessons On Fear After 3,000 BASE Jumps (Brett Kistler, Art Of Accomplishment)

Brett Kistler is an entrepreneur, former professional base jumper turned consciousness teacher who facilitates at Art of Accomplishment Podcast. His journey from chasing extreme experiences to discovering deeper presence offers profound insights into our relationship with fear, presence, and human connection.

I was eager to explore this conversation with Brett because his path illustrates how our greatest challenges - even life-threatening ones - can become doorways to transformation when approached with awareness and courage.
