Most people run from pressure.
That’s exactly why they never become the person they’re meant to be.
This episode is about training for the life you say you want — by entering the pressure you’ve been avoiding.
In Episode 2 of The Underdog Standard, Andrew Owlett breaks down how pressure shaped him from a 1.6 GPA kid into a first responder, a Fortune 5 leader, a real estate developer, and a tech founder building AI companies.
This isn’t a motivational pep talk — it’s a tactical framework born from nights inside burning buildings and days negotiating multimillion-dollar deals.
In the first five minutes, you’ll hear:
- How the firehouse taught Andrew more about business than any classroom
- Why pressure becomes the “diagnostic tool” for your systems
- How most founders break not from the work — but from avoiding pressure
- Why being calm under chaos becomes your competitive advantage
Whether you're scaling your first company, pivoting careers, leading teams, or raising capital, this episode will change how you think about stress and uncertainty.
