In this “Lessons” episode, Michael Sartain explains why most self-help advice keeps you stuck by rewarding passive consumption over real action. He challenges the comfort of feel-good platitudes and pushes for bold, opinionated expression as a means to cut through the noise. Sartain shares how having a polarizing stance, seeking attention ethically, and stepping outside the fear of judgment are key to personal and entrepreneurial growth. With blunt clarity, he argues that the true enemy of progress is not failure, but inaction—and urges listeners to stop hiding behind excuses, embrace discomfort, and actually do the work.
