You don’t have to have it all figured out.(Presence is what unlocks the path forward.) This week on the One Fear Per Year Podcast, I sat downwith Mike Lee—a former NBA skills coach who’sworked with legends like Steph Curry and Joel Embiid,and now a leadership consultant, keynote speaker, and #1best-selling author. But Mike’s story isn’t just about basketball or business.It’s about how he walked through one of the darkest seasons of hislife—a brutal 9-month withdrawal from antidepressants thatleft him battling anxiety, fear, and emptiness for years—and came out the other side with a radicalunderstanding of presence. Today, Mike helps world-class athletes, Fortune 500 executives, andhigh-performing teams tap into this same power—because, as he says, “True performance only happens whenyou’re fully present.” We talk about:➜ How fear shows up for NBA players at the highestlevel.➜ The connection between mindfulness, leadership, andresilience.➜ Why trust—not fear—is the ultimate game-changer. If you’ve ever felt stuck, anxious, or unsure of your next move,this episode is your permission slip to pause, breathe, and step into thepresent moment.
