Day 18: Overcoming Fear When Shift Happens


Listen Later

My strong is overcoming fear to live a truly empowered life.
Welcome to Day 18 of our "me-first" journey! Yesterday we talked about embracing change. Today, we’re discussing its close cousin, overcoming the fear of the unknown. Just like change, fear of the unknown often bubbles up when we start altering long-held patterns. It’s crucial to confront and manage this fear to prevent slipping back into those familiar but limiting behaviors.
Overcoming fear is not just about suppressing our anxieties; it's about changing how we react to uncertainty. As we've started the process of  letting go of hyper-independent habits, we've created opportunities for more supportive, interconnected ways of living. Today's focus is on understanding and managing the fears that arise during these transformative times.
Key Takeaways:
Understanding the Fear of the Unknown: I explore why uncertainty can be so paralyzing and yet so important for growth, and how facing it can lead to a more fuffilling life.
Strategies to Overcome Fear: We'll discuss practical ways to confront and manage fear, ensuring that it motivates rather than hinders us.
Building Resilience: Learning to harness our fears can significantly bolster our resilience, helping us thrive in the face of life's unpredictabilities.
Join our Upcoming "Un-caped" Workshop:  If today's conversation about control and managing it resonates with you, then you won't want to miss our monthly "Un-caped" workshop. We'll dive even deeper into topics like this. It all happens on the last Tuesday of the month. The next one is July 30th, and I’d love to see you there. This is your chance to connect with others who are on the same journey and to really reinforce your commitment to a "me-first" life.
Looking Ahead: Tomorrow, we'll explore another important aspect of living a "me-first" life - letting go of control Stay tuned to continue this transformative journey with us.
