Welcome back to the PeopleNova Podcast, I’m Rachel O’Neil and today we are discussing Fear. What is fear? Fear is a strong emotion, a physiological response originating in the amygdala. Fear aids in triggering the fight or flight response when perceiving physical threats. Think about the hunter gatherer being confronted with a lion. 

What else is fear? 

F.E.A.R could be False Evidence Appearing Real. We can choose to believe False Evidence. Or we can choose to not believe the self talk swirling in our brain. We can short circuit the looping negative self talk, push through fear, and reframe rejection as a learning opportunity. What can I learn from this situation? What did I learn from this situation?

Today on the podcast we are chatting with the Founder of a business that teaches Real Estate Investing to Black and Brown youth. We touch on a few strategies to build wealth. We chat about artistic and creative expressions. We discuss the courage to be fearless with Pamela Rosario Perez.
