In this episode of the InPowered Life Podcast, Rudi Riekstins sits down with Emmy Award winner, bestselling author, and master coach Rhonda Britten. Rhonda shares her incredible journey from witnessing a tragic murder-suicide at age 14 to becoming a leading authority on fear and living fearlessly.

Whether you're struggling with trauma, seeking to lead a more inspired life, or simply curious about how fear shapes our decisions, this episode is packed with wisdom and tools to help you thrive.


Key Takeaways:

  • Fear is a Protector, Not the Enemy: Fear’s purpose is to keep us safe, but it often holds us back by keeping us in old patterns.
     
  • Embrace Fear, Don’t Run from It: Instead of avoiding fear, understand it, face it, and use it as a tool for growth.
     
  • Forgiveness as a Catalyst for Change: Forgiving others, even in the face of profound trauma, can unlock emotional freedom. The hardest yet most transformative forgiveness is forgiving yourself.
     
  • The Wheel of Fear & Freedom: Rhonda’s revolutionary framework helps identify your unique fears and provides a pathway to live fearlessly.
     
  • Small Steps Build Confidence: Start with small, actionable changes—acknowledge even minor wins to reframe your mindset and foster self-belief.
