OVER DEZE AFLEVERING
Not everyone stutters on their words, but everyone stutters on something: fear, shame, doubt. Today, we explore what it means to face those inner barriers and move forward anyway.
In this episode, Uri sits down with longtime friend and collaborator Dan Greenwald, a strategist, educator, and founder of ThirtyTenZero, a clarity-first framework for navigating growth and reinvention. Dan's journey began with a childhood stutter, but evolved into a lifelong exploration of what it means to grow through discomfort and live with intention.
This conversation is about far more than speech. It's about overcoming fear through self-awareness, building a life from the inside out, and developing the inner tools to keep growing when life gets hard.
Dan shares the story behind his transformative personal operating system and how each one helps people transcend personal limitations and take action from a place of purpose.
Whether you're navigating self-doubt, burnout, or a new season of change, this episode offers practical and empowering tools for personal growth and a reminder that you're stronger than you think.
In this episode on turning fear into opportunity, you'll discover:
- The life-shaping moment that sparked Dan's path to self-awareness
- How to grow your courage muscle and take action through fear
- Tools to help you identify limiting beliefs
- Why overcoming fear through self-awareness leads to lasting change
- How Dan developed the ThirtyTenZero system for aligned living
