The FEARLESS Man’s executive director, Dave Stultz, was just featured in an article on VoyageLA – an online magazine for “LA’s Most Inspiring Stories.”

In the article, “Meet Dave Stultz of The Fearless Man in Marina Del Rey”, Dave discusses how impactful risk-taking has been in his own life, how crucial it is for those seeking to live a bigger life, what FEARLESS is really all about and how we teach and coach students, and more.

Some highlights from the piece:

“…there were a couple of things stuck in my head that were really preventing my life from being as amazing as I wanted it to be.

The first was a crippling fear of flying. I wanted to travel the world, and my avoidance of getting on airplanes was keeping me from experiencing the life I truly wanted to live.

The second area limiting my life was a belief that I needed to hold on to my safe, secure, well-paying job…that I was becoming more and more unhappy with.

So I finally took a leap of faith and moved from the East Coast to Los Angeles to form a partnership with FEARLESS co-founder Brian Begin. I lived on Brian’s couch for a while which is never ideal, but my life expanded, and FEARLESS grew.

And after having had enough of feeling imprisoned by my fear of flying, I’ve taken up wingsuit skydiving, I’m an investor in a helicopter company (along with other ventures), I’m actively learning to fly helicopters myself, and I travel almost constantly.

You must be willing to take on risk. The bigger you want your life to be and the more freedom you want, the more risk you have to take.”

“As Brian says, the secret to being FEARLESS in life isn’t actually about getting rid of all fear. It’s about changing your relationship to fear and being uncomfortable so it’s something you learn to run towards and even enjoy, like riding a roller coaster or watching a scary movie.”

“We believe that everyone’s natural state is one of confidence and empowerment in all areas of their lives. It’s about stripping away layers of insecurities, disempowering social conditioning, beliefs, habits, and outdated defense mechanisms that push people away and keep what you want in life at a distance.”

“Many clients work with us far beyond solving their dating challenges, and more and more men in happy relationships or marriages are coming to us to work on their careers or other areas because they’ve picked up on just how transformative the work we take men through is.”
