Too often we hide the fears that weigh us down because we're nervous others won't fully accept us. We worry that we're too emotional, sensitive, cold or withdrawn. We worry we're too much and not enough all at the same time. The thing is--the worry and fear are both very real, very normal, and very much unneeded in our lives. By first naming and then sharing your fears, you can help yourself (and women you love) begin to process the self-doubts that occasionally spring up. Listen in as we really "go there" with our own fears.
