"Do one thing every day that scares you" - Eleanor Roosevelt
My personal journey of facing 365 fears
Who am I
I'm facing 365 fears. Why would I do that?
Like you, I'm just an every day kinda gal. I'm no one famous, I have a below average education (yep), I have more bad hair days than good ones, there really isn't anything special about me.
Sure, I had a rough start to life, but then so do too many others (#metoo) and I've had my fair share of challenges that living a full life encompasses.
And that's my point...you don't have to be famous, super smart, or even courageous to be able to face your fears (or facing 365 fears in my case). You just have to be willing to give it a go. And, if I can do it, then I know you can too!
Walking My Talk
As I dived into this challenge I OFTEN asked myself why did I choose facing 365 fears? And why share it? Especially the times when fear had me in its grips and I was looking for any excuse to get out of it.
But I couldn't deny the innermost feeling I had that kept telling me I had to. That voice that kept whispering in my ear and the energy that kept pulling me forward from my gut. You know that feeling!
So here I am, raw, real and vulnerable. Sharing my fears, tears, failures, moments of elation, successes, and disappointments.
I'm sharing my whole journey (the blood, sweat, tears and snot, the whole lot!) in the hope that you can take from it what you need to face your own fears.
Find your courage, grow your confidence and go live your life to the fullest. I've got your back xo
Most Popular Fears I've Faced
Fear of Public Speaking
As I stood beside the stage the fear I felt was all consuming. Knowing I was about to stand in front of 200 strangers & share my story...
Fear of The Past
Facing up to the fears of my past by visiting the "horror houses" where I grew up was one of the most liberating journeys...
Fear of Judgement
Publishing my book was one of the scariest things I've ever done. Sharing my innermost secrets I was so afraid of being judged...
