“Fear is at the crux of everything. If you do not know how to master fear, then fear is always going to trick you. That’s because fear is smarter than you and more educated than you.”

This episode’s guest is an absolute rockstar who’s dedicated her life to teaching people how to master fear.

It’s the incredible Rhonda Britten - master life coach, creator of the Fearless Living Institute, and an Emmy-Award winner. She’s also appeared on Oprah not once, but twice!

After a horrific experience at the age of 14, Rhonda spent the next 20 years of her life battling with fear in all its guises. From self-doubt, blame, and addiction, Rhonda struggled to work out life - until she decided to challenge her beliefs about who she thought she was.

This decision opened the door to hope and freedom. It led Rhonda down a path where she’s helped people from across the world break free of indecision - so they can take the risks that lead to an authentic life.

And in this episode, she’s going to give you plenty to think about.

“If you are driven by fear you’ll be successful, but never satisfied.”

Rhonda believes the key to fearless freedom is to understand how your fear works.

When it comes to fear, everyone’s experience is different. We all have our own fear response based on who we are and what’s happened in our lives.

In this episode, Rhonda reveals some simple, yet powerful questions that will enable you to understand what fear is trying to do - and how you can use fear to help you accomplish the things you want.

There is so much gold in this episode. Rhonda gives her all - her wisdom, her story, and her passion for her work. It’s electrifying and inspiring and I can’t wait for you to get your teeth into this wisdom because I know you’re going to love it.

“You have to find your own path. Your own individual fearless path.”
