Ego stands as a major stumbling block on the road to fulfillment. Mature confidence comes from competence and relationships – not the blustering arrogance ego mistakes for assurance. Genuine confidence develops from small, consistent actions that form your identity over time.

In this episode of Perfectly Mentored, Jason interviews his friend Cody Jefferson, founder of Embrace the Lion. Cody has over 20 years of experience coaching entrepreneurs, CEOs, and creatives to achieve personal growth, relational intimacy, leadership skills, and success. They discuss how to identify one's calling and build confidence to fully live into it, the importance of continual coaching and mentorship no matter one's level of success, dealing with ego on the path to achievement, Cody's movement to help men become great leaders and creators, and more.
