What would your life look like if fear wasn’t in charge? What if you submitted the job application, finally booked the girls trip, or launched the business idea you’ve been dreaming about—but have been too scared to start?
In this empowering episode, Dr. Onaysia Martinez — first-gen Latina, physical therapist turned identity liberation coach — unpacks the real reason you keep putting off the life you want: fear of failure, fear of sucking, fear of not being “perfect” from the start.
✨ In this episode, you’ll learn:
How to stop waiting until you're “ready” and just start
Why fear is not a stop sign — it’s a signal
A powerful reframe of failure as fuel for success
How to take bold action, even when you're scared (and maybe not that good yet)
If you’ve been searching:
🔎 “How to stop being afraid of failure” 🔎 “I want to start something but I’m scared” 🔎 “How to feel more confident trying something new” ...then this episode is your next brave step forward.
