492: Courage, Clarity, and the Soul-Led Path of Mikki Willis
As a father and entrepreneur, you know what it feels like to carry the weight of providing, leading, and doing what’s right—even when it’s hard.
But what happens when doing what’s right means walking away from money, approval, and comfort?
In this powerful episode, I sit down with Mikki Willis—filmmaker, author, and creator of one of the most controversial and widely viewed independent films of our time.
At the peak of his career, Mikki was faced with a choice: stay silent and keep everything… or speak his truth and risk it all.
He chose soul over strategy. And it changed everything.
In this episode, you’ll learn:
-
What real strength looks like when everything’s on the line
-
How to stay grounded when the world pulls at your center
-
Why trusting your inner voice beats chasing outside approval
-
The power of standing firm—even when you’re standing alone
-
A model for soul-led decision-making in moments of pressure
If you’ve ever felt the cost of staying true to yourself as a man, a father, or a leader…
This conversation is your reminder: you’re not alone—and you’re not crazy.
You’re just building something the world can’t take from you.
