The last year taught us a lot.  Many of our routines, things we took for granted, and activities we enjoyed we disrupted and replaced by uncertainty, anxiety, and fear.  Fear serves a purpose.  To protect us and help us exercise caution when needed.  But fear, when left unchecked, can keep you trapped and unable to move forward.

Today’s episode is all about facing the fear that limits you.  Being willing to move outside of the comfort of the life you know to take the risks necessary to have the life you dream of is a challenge, but you can choose to move beyond the fear.
