Is fear stopping you from doing what you actually want to do?

Whether it’s starting a new career, putting yourself out there, or taking the first step toward something meaningful—fear has a way of keeping you stuck. This episode breaks down what fear really looks like, how it shows up in your daily decisions, and how to take action even when it feels uncomfortable.

In this episode you will discover: 

  1. Why fear often shows up as perfectionism or hesitation
  2. How not sharing your story can block real opportunities
  3. A simple question to help you shift from fear to forward momentum

If you’re tired of overthinking and ready to do the thing—even if you’re still scared—this episode is for you.
