In this episode, I walk you through my personal journey of overcoming the fear of visibility, using my unique Upward Spiral Framework to navigate the emotional tension that often comes with stepping into the spotlight. Whether you’re facing fears around sharing your creative work, starting a new project, or simply expressing your authentic self, this episode is for you.
I dive deep into the three pillars of my framework:
- Clarity – Using the "Melt-Through Method" to uncover and meet the fear head-on.
- Action – How to take manageable, gradual steps with graded exposure to move through fear without overwhelming your nervous system.
- Modulation – Techniques for responding to triggers and staying attuned to your body’s signals for a balanced approach to visibility.
With real-life examples of my own fears and challenges around sharing vulnerable content, I offer actionable tools and a compassionate approach to help you move through your fears, gain clarity, and take empowered action in your life and business.
If you’ve ever hesitated to take the next step because of fear, this episode will inspire you to move forward and stand in your power.
