Have you ever considered that the very act of chasing your passion might equally be the pathway to  your greatest fulfillment AND profound suffering? In this episode of the Mary Marantz Show, guest Heather Thompson Day, author of "What If I'm Wrong? Navigating the Waves of Fear and Failure," joins Mary to explore the fine line between faith and delusion. 

By embracing the tension between hope and setback, you’ll learn to discover how to live more authentically, finding peace and purpose in every step of their journey, regardless of external circumstances. Prepare for a transformative exploration of how to live fully despite the fear of failure, as Heather encourages us to open our hands and let go of what doesn't serve us.

Tune in to hear:

  • Embracing passion as a path to profound growth and personal fulfillment.
  • The difference between faith and delusion in pursuing one's dreams.
  • Transforming fear of failure into an opportunity for genuine life experiences.
  • The impact of growing up with financial instability and how it shapes our definition of success.
  • Letting go of perfectionism and learning to live by faith rather than by worldly measures of achievement.

After listening to this episode, you'll be inspired to take bold steps towards your dreams and hold the courage to embrace your authentic self along the way.
