Are you ready to break through what’s holding you back, but keep finding yourself stuck in the same old routines? Discover how navigating your comfort zone and pushing through your "terror barriers" is the key to unlocking new levels of growth—both personally and in your business.

Let’s face it, playing it safe can sometimes feel smarter than stretching for more. But what if that “safe place” is actually just keeping you from the success you want? In this episode, Londina and Donna get honest about why courage is a learned habit and how your comfort zone isn’t as comfortable—or as helpful—as you may think.

What You Need to Know

• The comfort zone isn’t about feeling comfortable, it’s about feeling safe—and safety can quietly keep you in a cycle of “just enough.”
• Much of our fear comes from old conditioning—lessons taught by parents, teachers, and friends whose own limitations now echo in our minds.
• To move forward, you must pass through what Londina and Donna Kunde call the “terror barrier.” Every breakthrough to the next level of your life or business growth demands a leap of courage through this space of discomfort.
• There are four distinct stages: comfort (where you’re content with the status quo), reasoning (beginning to believe more is possible), terror (where fear almost pulls you back), and finally, freedom (where you realize your true capability).
• Most people never push through “terror,” instead cycling between comfort and fear—often because their brain wants to keep them safe.

What You Need to Do

• Take an honest look at your own comfort zone—what beliefs or familiar habits are holding you back from bigger dreams?
• Notice self-sabotaging thoughts: “Who do I think I am?” and “I’m not good enough.” Learn to question these voices.
• Seek out mentors or coaches who help you spot your blind spots and step into new possibilities.
• Be cautious about sharing your big ideas with people who might reflect their own fears back at you.
• Celebrate each small breakthrough, recognizing that courage builds with every step through discomfort.
