What if the wildest version of your life is waiting on the other side of yes?
Sophie Storm Roberts stopped waiting to feel ready—and that single decision cracked her world wide open. From spreadsheets to summits, pub napkins to Paris, she’s swapped the comfort of tech startups for the chaos of ultramarathons, Ironmans, and Alpine epics. Now the founder of Challenge Sophie, she’s proof that you don’t need to be fearless to live boldly—you just need to begin.
This episode is a firestarter. Sophie and Rich get real on fear, courage, and the messy magic of doing things before you feel qualified. They talk about turning anxiety into action, finding freedom in failure, and how one small yes can ripple into a whole new life.
Sophie breaks down her tools for facing fear—awareness, acceptance, and action—and shows us that bravery doesn’t always roar. Sometimes, it’s just showing up, signing up, or doing something on your own for the first time. This conversation is a reminder that your next great adventure might start with a single uncomfortable choice.
If you’re waiting for permission—this is it. Hit play, get inspired, and let it spark something wild.
