EP089 How Fear Can Cost You Dearly

Welcome to episode 89 where we start the month out delving into the concept of how fear can cost you opportunities and ways to live up to your greatest potential, and how courage is the only way through the fear.

In this episode, we talk about the concept of holding yourself back in life, withdrawing and avoiding risk, vs grabbing the courage and fortitude to push ahead THROUGH the fear and do it anyway. Stay with us all month as we flesh out how to grab some more courage as we assess the real risks of NOT honoring who we really are.

Key Elements:

• Discuss the origins of how fear is processed in the brain as a protective function.
• Explore how you may have a greater fear sensitivity – and why.
• Participate in an experiential exercise to get you moving forward courageously.

“Fear defeats

more people

than any other one

thing in the world.”

— Ralph Waldo Emerson
