In this episode of Speak and Get What You Want, Chad Kerby sits down with Summer Davis to unpack why so many capable, talented people feel stuck and how to break free.
Summer explains how the brain is wired for survival, not success, and why our “primitive brain” constantly tries to keep us safe by avoiding discomfort, fear, and embarrassment. The problem? Growth, confidence, and success live on the other side of those emotions.
You’ll learn why avoiding discomfort actually creates more anxiety, how exposure to fear builds confidence, and how thoughts, not circumstances, drive emotions, actions, and results. Summer also shares practical tools to identify limiting thoughts, challenge them, and literally rewire your brain for progress.
This conversation is a powerful reminder that you’re not broken, you’re not behind, and you’re not stuck with the brain you have. If you’re ready to stop drifting and start taking intentional action, this episode will change how you think about discomfort, confidence, and personal growth.
