Overcoming Fear

Allison Carmen
About this episode

Even when pursuing our goals and passions, our need for certainty can limit us, causing unnecessary stress and suffering. We often become so focused on how things need to happen that we lose sight of being open to all possibilities, sacrificing our presence for a future that may never come. As a translation of a Rumi quote says, "What is fear? A non-acceptance of uncertainty." In this podcast, learn how to set your intentions, create actionable steps, and release the need for certainty and specific outcomes. By doing this, you'll stay present, resilient, and plant the best seeds for your future!
