We all experience fear and often it gets in the way of our success and happiness. What if we could transform fear from foe to friend?

On this LinkedIn Live audio event James Victore, Lana Jelenjev and I explored the nature of fear and offered our insights to help you have a better relationship to it.

Some key points we discuss are:

1.  The Origins of Fear: Many of our fears are inherited from our societies, families and past experiences. They're not necessarily just about what's happening in the moment.

2. Fear is a Signal:  Instead of seeing fear as an obstacle, see it as a signal or opportunity for growth. Fear tells us that we're about to step out of our comfort zones and can point us in the direction of new and exciting futures.

3. Reframing Fear: What if the sensations we interpret as fear are actually signs of excitement? This simple reframing can change how we tackle challenging situations.

4. The Role of Inner Work: Exploring the roots of our fears can help identify and dismantle the stories we tell ourselves. Simply identifying which stories are true and which are lies can help us overcome them.

5. Creating a New Relationship with Fear: Fear is part of our journey towards achieving our goals and experiencing it can lead to a richer, more fulfilled life. We just need to trust in ourselves and trust the process.
