The common phrase in personal development is Fear is: Fake Evidence Appearing Real, but in this episode, Keri talks about Fear standing for Face Everything And Rise. What this means is: Rather than succumbing to fear, rise to meet it.

It is valid to feel fear, but it can hinder us from doing what we want. Fear can make some persuasive, albeit unsound, arguments for why you are unable to achieve what you want. However, you can overcome your fear of taking the first step by analyzing these thought patterns and identifying logical actions to take.

The stories that fear tells you can sound totally rational and convincing, but when you recognize that there is no immediate threat to your safety in these difficult moments and ask yourself the questions Keri discusses in this episode, you can move through the fear and become the 1% woman you truly are, changing your life in the process.

If you decide to move past your fear, it will be uncomfortable at first, but you will find that it is worth it in the end. Changing your life in this way will cause your reality and thought patterns to shift, which can be a scary prospect, but it will also allow you to achieve greater heights than you ever imagined.
