We have this guy speaking at the CBC Finals. He knows a lot about your  brain — well, I mean, your brain and your fear of trying new things. Your fear of just starting is a part of his thesis and, really, our purpose and mission.

More importantly, our goal is getting you to the other side of your fear because that’s where your success resides. On the other side of your fear is your success.

So we’re bringing Scott in because we don’t want you to be scared to try something, to be the best you can be, to do something that makes you uncomfortable or to make your story and your business relevant. No way. So meet Scott Halford. He wrote a book about neuroscience and startups and your brain and your fear and how all these parts go together. His message has everything you need to know about fearlessness in business and in life. All of it resides in your head. Our goal is to bring Scott here to get you past your fear and to teach you about excellence. Plus he’s a kickass speaker. His story brings me to my feet every single time. He will make you a better person.

I think the thing about Scott’s talk is his authenticity and his approach to science — in a non-scary way. Do with it what you will. But learn everything you can because it will get you from Point A to Point B without fear. This is how we start a movement. No fear. Just start.

Welcome to CBC – where we celebrate fearlessness and we celebrate the bold moves of every single startup brave enough to show up. Sometimes, all you have to do is show up. The rest follows.
