I've spent years watching people navigate risk - both in the backcountry and in life. Here's what I've noticed: most people either avoid uncertainty completely or jump in blindly. But the mountains taught me there's a smarter way.

It's not just about your risk tolerance. It's about understanding how you naturally approach uncertainty - so you know when to lean into your strengths and when you need to take the unconventional path.

That's what PASE reveals. Whether you're a Planner, Achiever, Socializer, or Enthusiast, this assessment shows you how you're wired to handle the unknown. More importantly, it helps you recognize when your default approach is holding you back from the life you actually want.

I've seen people transform their careers, relationships, and adventures simply by understanding their natural risk style - and knowing when to challenge it. This isn't about changing who you are; it's about making strategic choices about when to stay in your lane and when to break the rules that everyone else follows.
