Have you ever hesitated to make a key call in your business? Go for a heavier weight at the gym? Say “yes” to a great invitation? Or move forward in your most important work? Or big idea?

Today’s episode is perfect for you if you’ve noticed your attachment to certainty or getting it right may be slowing you down. Oftentimes, attempts to avoid situations that might be uncertain are unconsciously disguised as being busy, over preparing, or refining our work. 

Ultimately, it becomes impossible to innovate, share controversial ideas or effect the change we want.   The truth is fear can hold you back and limit you in every area of your life without you even knowing it.

That’s why today I’m sharing with you the one lesson I wish I knew years ago: no matter how accomplished, how much older, or how recognized you become, fear is going to accompany you. And the worst problem we can actually face is not knowing that it’s fear that’s holding us back.

Join me in this episode as I share the things I feared most, how surrendering to that fear led to my greatest experiences, and my favorite approach to acknowledge your fear and use your past to inform how to create your most satisfying and rewarding present and future.  

The good news: You can change your relationship to fear and allow this to be the end of avoiding situations that might bring it.  I am glad you’re here.

If this episode is helpful for you, please share it with someone else who would benefit from hearing it. Also, be sure to leave a review on Apple Podcasts letting me know what you enjoy about Playing Full Out and what you would like to hear in the future.
