On this episode of the Learn-It-All™ podcast, host Damon sits down with Jerrid Sebesta—keynote speaker, author of Life Undeferred, and a former award-winning TV meteorologist turned transformation coach—for a raw, inspiring conversation about breaking free from limiting beliefs and stepping boldly into the life you’re meant for. Jerrid shares his powerful personal journey, from early trauma and scarcity to discovering how to rewrite his own story with intention, alignment, and truth. Together, they unpack why our biggest breakthroughs often hide inside our greatest fears, and how anyone can architect a life that feels both bold and deeply authentic. Through real lessons and vivid storytelling, you’ll learn how mindset, self-awareness, and connection to your core values can drive real change. Damon and Jerrid cover the tactical (vision exercises, handling fear, creating alignment), the philosophical (truth vs. stories, life as school), and the emotional (healing old wounds, harnessing loss as fuel for growth). If you’re feeling stuck, scared, or just ready for your “next chapter,” this is your roadmap to becoming your most alive self. In this episode, you’ll learn: How Jerrid rewrote his story—from a life of scarcity and fear to one of purpose, ownership, and constant growth. The role of defining moments and mindset shifts in unleashing your true potential. Simple frameworks for creating a personal vision and architecting the life you want (without self-sabotage). Why fear is a sign you’re on the right path—and how to use it as fuel, not a stop sign. How to respond (not react) to challenges, difficult people, and life’s toughest events. Concrete strategies for letting go of offense, building wholeness, and becoming unoffendable. Timestamps: 00:00 – Waking up in fear—and learning to love the feeling 01:34 – Jerrid’s pivotal New Year’s Day and decision to stop playing defense 03:42 – Rewriting old scripts and mindsets from childhood 06:13 – Parenting the parent: Jerrid’s family history and emotional awareness 07:49 – The power of beliefs, consciousness, and uncovering your real truth 12:55 – Regret, curiosity, and the transformation that follows self-reflection 17:08 – Why success without alignment isn’t success (career pivots and breakthroughs) 20:06 – Alignment, authenticity, and firing yourself to live your dream 22:39 – How to build (and connect to) your personal vision 27:19 – When passion and your superpower should drive your career and income 30:49 – Living “life undeferred”—what that means, and how to face fear 33:30 – Learn to love your fear: the ultimate sign of growth 38:21 – Letting go of the outcome and building belief 45:29 – Life as school: using challenges (and difficult people) as teachers 47:07 – Three steps to handling triggers: pause, say “what a pleasure,” respond from wholeness 49:44 – The #1 thing people say to Jerrid after his talks 52:01 – Turning pain into power, walking your loved ones home, and finding meaning in loss 53:16 – Where to find more from Jerrid Sebesta  About Jerrid Sebesta: Jerrid Sebesta is a keynote speaker, author, podcast host, and transformation coach best known for his paradigm-shifting work around mindset, intention, and living boldly.
