What if fear and excitement were actually the same thing? And what if you could train yourself to transform fear into fun? In this episode of The Gutsy Podcast, LauraAura sits down with extreme sports athlete and mindset coach Jennie Milton—better known as AdrenaJen—to explore the power of expanding your comfort zone, developing tolerance for discomfort, and staying calm under pressure.

From heli-skiing in Alaska to navigating real-life challenges, Jennie shares her FEAR Formula for pushing past limits, how to rewire your mindset for adaptability, and why the most courageous people aren’t fearless—they just take action anyway.

      ✅ How to build tolerance for discomfort and why it makes you stronger
      ✅ Why fear and excitement feel the same—and how to flip the script
      ✅ Jennie’s FEAR Formula for navigating challenges with confidence
      ✅ The MacGyver Mindset—how to solve problems creatively under pressure
      ✅ Practical ways to calm a busy mind and ground yourself in high-stress moments
      ✅ The key to turning fear into fun through repetition and practice
