Stepping Into the Unknown: Why Comfort Is the Real Trap

What does it really take to step into the unknown—especially when fear, comfort, and outside doubt are pulling you back?

In this episode of Yes And Land with Ryan Gregerson, Ryan is joined by Sophie Gardner, President of Ultimate Advisors and Director of Client Solutions at RCG Law Group, for a powerful conversation about courage, change, and personal evolution. Sophie shares her unconventional career journey from real estate into private equity and high-level business leadership, highlighting the mindset shifts required to take meaningful risks.

Together, Ryan and Sophie explore why humans cling to familiarity—even when it no longer serves them—and how fear, emotional loops, and external pressure can keep people stuck. The episode offers practical tools like gratitude practices, emotional naming, and visualization to help listeners reframe their reality and move forward intentionally. A Disney Tangled metaphor brings these lessons to life, showing how Rapunzel’s leap from the tower mirrors our own moments of transformation.

If you’re ready to rewrite your story and move toward a more aligned future, this episode will meet you exactly where you are.
