In this eye-opening episode of The Seeking Wisdom Podcast, Joni sits down with Catalina Fortich, a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, to talk about the reality of what fear is and how we can learn to regulate it.

Together, Joni and Catalina open up about the inner battles we all face when fear tries to overwhelm our thoughts, decisions, and peace. As a professional therapist, Catalina explains what fear is, how it is different from anxiety, and gives us great insight into how to manage both.
