About this episode

Have you ever felt like fear is holding you back? Like you want so badly to see that next stage of your life that you can almost taste it. You can feel it. It's keeping you up at night, but you just feel so stuck because you're afraid. Afraid of starting because, what if you fail? 

 

We've all faced something in our life that feels scary. And when it comes to growth and personal growth, facing our fear is inevitable. I know I personally have felt this in so many places along my own journey.

 

So today, I want to talk about overcoming fear and how we can move past it. At our core, we are not called to have a spirit of fear. We are called to face our fears. I want to help you walk through this fear by teaching you my six step kickstart guide, so you can move past fear and into action.
