Think being tough means having NO FEAR? Dead wrong. I spent my 20s playing tough guy because I thought that's what men do... and that led me down some DARK paths.
Look, fear isn't weakness - it's your body's alarm system! Sometimes that alarm is saying "DON'T JUMP OFF THE DAMN BUILDING" (thank you, fear). Other times it's just your past trauma screaming when growth is knocking.
I've built my business by ignoring economic doom porn while others froze in fear... but I've also stayed stuck in relationships WAY TOO LONG because I was scared of the unknown.
The question isn't "are you afraid?" - we ALL get scared. It's "what's this fear trying to tell me?" Is it protecting you from legit danger or just keeping you comfortable and SMALL?
Stop letting subconscious fear from your childhood or that business failure 10 years ago run your life from the shadows. Drag that shit into the light, decide if it's serving you, then make your move.
This episode is for anyone who's stuck wondering, "is this fear keeping me safe or keeping me small?" Let's figure it out together.
