What if everything you’ve believed about identity is wrong?

In this solo episode of The Freedom Lab, Tate goes deep into a personal story of living with fear disguised as success—and the turning point that changed everything. From years of tying his worth to performance in sports, business, and life, to discovering the truth about who he really is, Tate shares what it looks like to move from fear to freedom.

Then, he shares a surprising conversation with his 6-year-old daughter—a moment that revealed something profound about identity and why so many of us get it wrong.

This episode isn’t just about inspiration. It’s about action. You’ll walk away with a practical step you can take this week to start living from who you really are, not what you do.

You don’t need another brainstorm session or Pinterest board—you need to know who you are. In this episode of The Freedom Lab, we’re unpacking why your creativity isn’t stuck because of a lack of ideas, but because of the lies and fear you’ve been living under.

Discover how receiving your true identity changes the way you think, imagine, and create. We’ll explore:

• The hidden connection between identity and creativity

• How fear quietly edits your ideas before you ever share them

You’re not crazy—and you’re not stuck. But if your present feels heavier than it should, it might be because your past is still in the driver’s seat. In this episode, we unpack how fear gets learned, how pain from the past quietly hijacks your thoughts, behaviors, and relationships, and how to start living from your true identity instead of old survival patterns.

We’re talking:

• Why fear isn’t just a feeling—it’s a strategy you picked up

• The hidden ways your past is shaping your present

• How to recognize false stories and reclaim your real self

This one’s honest, practical, and packed with hope. Let’s get free.

What happens when you walk into a room with something to prove?
Your voice changes. Your posture shifts. Your mind races.

In this episode, we explore the subtle (and not-so-subtle) differences between striving for worth versus showing up secure in who you already are.

You’ll hear real stories, powerful language shifts, and practical tools for moving from pressure to peace.

Because when you lead, parent, love, or perform from identity—not fear—the atmosphere changes.

This conversation is a mirror. You might recognize the version of you that’s been performing.
But we’ll help you find the version of you that’s finally free.

Ep. 11 - the 3 layers of fear...

This is what we're all about here - hope it's a blessing!

In this episode, we explore something deep, quiet, and often overlooked: the intuitive mind. It's the part of you that already knows—without needing to explain how. We unpack the difference between the rational and intuitive mind, why we often let the wrong one lead, and how to reconnect with the quiet confidence that comes when your intuition is in the driver’s seat.

This isn’t about abandoning logic—it’s about remembering that your worth, identity, and peace don’t come from performance. They come from presence.

If you’ve ever felt stuck in your head, always needing a plan, or wondering why even your success feels empty—this one’s for you.

What if you could carry a simple tool that reminds you of who you are—and helps you actually live from it every day? In this episode, we share the heart behind the Identity Card: why we created it, how it works, and how it helps you move from fear to freedom. Because when you know who you are, you’ll know what to do. This tool is here to help you do just that.

In this episode, we tell two stories we’ll never forget. One about Cam stepping into something silly—but scary—that he’s avoided for years. The other about a woman who held fear inside for over five decades… until one moment of honesty changed everything. These stories aren’t just about fear—they’re about what happens when identity leads, and flow follows.

In this one, we’re answering your questions—the real ones. About identity, fear, freedom, and everything in between. Nothing off limits. Just two guys telling the truth and trying to help you do the same.

In this episode of The Freedom Lab, we strip it all down — no hype, no fluff. Just the simple, powerful process at the heart of every transformation: naming your fear and receiving your true identity. You don’t have to overthink it. You don’t have to fix yourself. This is not a self-help formula — it’s a freedom invitation.

We’ll walk through why this process works, how it’s changed our lives and others', and what it looks like to actually step into it. If you’ve been feeling stuck, heavy, or unsure of who you really are, this episode is your reminder: It’s simpler than you think. And you’re not alone.

Verse Cam is referencing:

- Jeremiah 17:7

“Blessed is the man who trusts in the Lord, whose trust is the Lord.”

- Proverbs 3:5-6

“Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and do not lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make straight your paths.”

So many of us are trying to earn our identity instead of receiving it. In this episode, we unpack the transformative process of discovering who you truly are — not by striving, but by surrendering. At The Freedom Lab, we call this the moment where fear loses its grip and freedom takes root. You’ll learn why your true identity isn’t something you achieve, it’s something you receive — often in community, in truth, and in stillness. We’ll guide you through the key steps, share personal stories, and help you move from false labels and fear-driven roles into the God-given identity that’s been waiting for you all along.

In this episode of The Freedom Lab, we dive deep into the moments when fear, anxiety, and false identities take the wheel — and how to reset when they do. Whether you feel overwhelmed, out of flow, or disconnected from who you truly are, this episode gives you practical steps and honest truths to help you reestablish a rhythm rooted in peace, clarity, and identity. It’s not just about coping — it’s about reconnecting with who you are and choosing a better way forward.

Fear isn’t just one thing—it’s layered, like armor we’ve put on to survive. In this episode, we explore the three key layers of fear that often go unnamed: surface fear (what we say we’re afraid of), gateway fear (the belief that protects us from deeper pain), and core fear (the fear that touches our identity). We break down each layer, how they show up in our lives, and how to begin moving through them—so you can stop managing fear and start walking in freedom.

Perfect for anyone ready to dig deeper, name what’s really holding them back, and take the first bold step toward wholeness.

What does it look like to perform without pressure, move without fear, and live fully in the moment? In Part 2 of our Competing Free series, we dive deep into the flow state — the space where identity, presence, and purpose collide.

Tate and Cam unpack how flow isn't just a mental zone, but a rhythm: a way of moving through life aligned with who you designed to be. We talk about how fear pulls us out of flow, how striving disconnects us from presence, and what it takes to live and lead from your true identity.

Whether you’re an athlete, entrepreneur, or everyday warrior — this episode will remind you that your best performance comes when you’re fully flowing, and fully you.

What’s really fueling your drive to compete?

In Part 1 of our Competing Free series, we dive deep into the shift every high performer has to face — from proving to flowing. Whether you're on the court, in the boardroom, or leading a team, it’s easy to get caught up in the hustle to be seen, validated, or enough.

But that grind? It’s often fear in disguise.

This episode unpacks how fear hijacks our performance, where that pressure to prove comes from, and why competing from identity — not for identity — is the only way to experience true freedom.

If you’ve ever felt like success still isn’t satisfying… this one’s for you.

In this episode of The Freedom Lab, we dive into the science of fear—what's really happening in your brain when fear kicks in, and why it often overrides logic, courage, and even identity. We explore how the amygdala, nervous system, and subconscious patterns are designed to protect you—but can also keep you stuck.

Join us as we unpack how fear shows up biologically, how it sabotages your freedom, and most importantly, how you can begin to rewire your brain to move from fear to freedom. If you've ever felt trapped by hesitation, self-doubt, or anxiety, this one’s for you.

In this powerful episode, we sit down with Patric Young—former pro basketball player, author, and now motivational speaker—whose life was radically changed after a car accident left him paralyzed.

Patric shares how fear nearly consumed him in the aftermath—but how choosing freedom over fear became his greatest victory yet. From redefining identity to rebuilding purpose, this conversation is a raw, honest, and hope-filled look at what it means to rise up when everything in you wants to shut down.

Whether you're facing a setback, wrestling with your purpose, or just need a reminder of your own power—this one is for you

Your team doesn’t need a better version of you — it needs the real you. In Episode 6, we dive into how your identity fuels team culture, connection, and impact. Whether you lead or follow, the room shifts when you show up whole...and so does your team.

Have you ever felt out of place, like you’re performing instead of showing up fully as yourself? In this episode, we peel back the layers on false identity — the stories we’ve been handed, the roles we’ve learned to play, and the masks we wear to survive. From the boardroom to the living room, who you think you are is influencing how you show up in every space, every relationship, every decision.

We’ll explore how false identity quietly distorts connection, breeds fear, and blocks us from true freedom. And more importantly — how to begin reclaiming your real identity and walk into every room aligned, grounded, and free.
