In today’s episode we are going to chat about igniting your voice and finding your fire power with my guest Shā Sparks.

Shā Sparks is an energetic catalyst and fearless communicator who guides leaders to spark their voice through coaching, podcasts, and publications so they can go from fear to fired up about their life and business.

As the CEO (Chief Excitement Officer) of Sparks of Fire International, she is the host of her signature podcast called The Shā Sparks Show along with being a co-host of three other podcasts. She is also the author of How to Get Your Voice Back, a Certified Fearless Living Coach and Trainer, Master Practitioner of NLP, and the Co-Founder of the FIRESTARTERS Book Project.

We focus on the importance of stepping out of one's comfort zone. Routine and familiarity can create a comfort zone that often goes unnoticed until disrupted by new experiences or risks. Shā shares personal insights on overcoming fear. Vulnerability, she explains, is crucial for forming healthy relationships. Recognizing comfort zone limits and understanding the impact of childhood experiences are key steps in this process.

Shā's journey underscores the choice we have to either succumb to fear or embrace new opportunities for growth and healing.  She emphasizes that fear is a natural response to new experiences, but it should not hold us back. Instead, we should view fear as an opportunity for growth and self-discovery.
