This week I’m answering a question that I think a lot of us have quietly asked ourselves—especially when we’re standing on the edge of something new and a little scary.
“How do I move forward when I’m scared I’m going to screw it all up, and it won’t work?”
—Kelsey, Charlotte NC
In this episode, I’m talking about how fear shows up (usually sounding super logical), how to gently challenge it, and one surprisingly simple question (courtesy of my 5yo…) that helps me get unstuck when my brain starts catastrophizing everything.
If fear’s been holding you back lately—or you’re just tired of second-guessing every move—this conversation might give you a new way to think about things.
A few things I cover:
Why “being realistic” is sometimes just fear in disguise
How I use the phrase “How do you know?” to break the fear spiral
What to do when your brain only wants to offer worst-case scenarios
A journaling prompt that helps separate truth from mental static
Why some doubts stick around even when you’ve done the work—and how to handle them
