It’s time to start listening to what your fear has to say--wait, what? This might surprise you, but there’s a very real reason why you need to listen to what your fear is saying: it has a message. The critical piece, however, is that you listen without attachment. In other words? Don’t believe that what your fear says, is automatically true. We’re going through some real examples of this in the 4th part of the Courage Habit series, part of a special 9-part series that is newly added to the Your Courageous Life podcast.

The inner critic is your best friend--with a lousy skill-set! That’s what we’re digging into in the 3rd part of the 9-part Courage Habit series (part of the Your Courageous Life podcast!). If you’ve felt like your internal critic has had a hold on you for far too long, listen in to hear how you can shift your relationship with your critic (and your fear). These skills are applicable to anywhere where you struggle with criticism.

In the second part of the 9-part Courage Habit series, we’re talking about how you can integrate meditation and mindfulness practices into your life (even when you’re feeling resistant) and how to directly dialogue with the internal critic so that you don’t get hung up on internal criticisms.

The Your Courageous Life podcast is debuting a special series that tackles lessons from my book, The Courage Habit. I’m partnering with my friend Andy Sewell, and we’re going through different lessons from The Courage Habit to talk about how you’d apply them in your life--when you’re getting overwhelmed and stressed and afraid, how do you literally stop, pause, not get pulled into that overwhelm and fear?

In the first of this 9-part Courage Habit series, we’re talking about how stress can trigger fear-based habits, and how to recognize that process so that you can interrupt the fear-based habits and create courage-based habits, instead.
