In this episode, Karen dives into the nature of fear, explaining it as an emotion created by the subconscious mind to signal danger and prompt action towards safety. She discusses how humans uniquely process fear, which often leads them to avoidance behaviors that reinforce and amplify the perceived threats. Karen shares that confronting fears, even through small steps, can recalibrate the subconscious mind's response, using personal anecdotes and practical advice to encourage listeners to confront rather than avoid their fears. The goal is to teach the subconscious mind that what is perceived as threatening is often safe, thereby reducing the unnecessary fear response and promoting a more fulfilling approach to challenging situations.

If you are ready to pull the lid off of your own beliefs that are not serving you, then check out my guide, Re-Write Your Story where I walk you through the science of beliefs, familial beliefs, money beliefs, etc. And how to re-write them so that you can begin to shift the story you tell yourself. 

This episode of 'Your life by design' centers on how common words like 'should', 'need to' and 'have to' can create feelings of fear, urgency and dictate our actions due to societal conditioning. Karen emphasizes on the unconscious impact of these words, drawing on the principles of human design and rapid resolution therapy. She also highlights the domino effect fear can have on our body and mind, rendering the feeling of fear useless and provoking a sense of stuckness if there's no actual threat. Karen suggests replacing these words with 'I choose to', aiming at empowering listeners and promoting an abundance mindset.
