This week’s conversation is with Tony Blauer, a coach in the martial art, self-defense, defensive tactics, and combatives industry for over four decades.He founded Blauer Tactical Systems (BTS) in 1985 and it has grown into one of the world's leading consulting companies specializing in the research and development of performance psychology, personal safety, and close quarter tactics & scenario-based training for law enforcement, military, and professional self-defense instructors.After decades of interviewing victims of violent encounters and studying violence, he also created the KNOW FEAR® program which focuses on managing fear through self-awareness, resiliency, and a 'movement' mindset. This program has also been integrated by psychologists helping Vets to deal with PTSD.You may be familiar with Tony’s work from his first time on Finding Mastery in early 2020 (episode #208).The world has changed quite a bit since then so I wanted to have Tony back on to further discuss his approach to combatting fear. -----Please support our partners!We're able to keep growing and creating content for YOU because of their support.
