Learning to Move Through Fear

This audiobook connected with me in more ways than I expected. I have overcome a lot in life, but fear still finds ways to show up. A few years ago, I had to face my fear of flying to make a long overdue trip to Europe. And hiking down the Grand Canyon trail tested my fear of heights at every step. But I pushed through, and this book reminded me why those moments matter. It is not just about pushing past fear. It is about understanding it and learning to work with it. The audiobook gives you tools to explore the roots of fear, whether it comes from judgment, perfectionism, or personal history, and how to move forward with honesty and strength. As someone who teaches, leads, and mentors others, I found the parts on speaking with courage and leading with empathy especially helpful. This is a valuable listen for anyone who has ever stayed silent when they wanted to speak up, questioned their own worth, or let fear hold them back.

A guide to public speaking without fear

I am a new business owner and an introvert. Not the best combo. I found this amazing audiobook on how to overcome fear and turn it into strength. I have learned techniques to reduce the fear when speaking to others, and now I feel much more confident in situations where I speak in front of several people. I still review the strategies before each talk, and it helps to calm my nerves. Great guide, easy to follow.
