Every entrepreneur knows the feeling: the great idea that sits untouched because fear won't let you move. In this episode of The Small Biz Catalyst, Ayisat Abilogun reframes fear as data, not a dead end, and gives you five moves to turn it into forward momentum.

WHAT YOU'LL LEARN IN THIS EPISODE

• Why fear is neurologically normal — and why entrepreneurs feel it more intensely than most
• The three types of fear that stall small businesses, and how to identify yours
• Why a growth mindset is not a feeling — it's a practice with a schedule

• This week's Catalyst Grant Minute: up to $20,000 available
