Embarking on a journey towards self-discovery can be both exhilarating and daunting, but it’s a path worth taking for anyone seeking personal growth. As we delve into the realms of passion and motivation, we learn that embracing passion can indeed consume fear, leading to a state of fearlessness. By overcoming fear, we unlock doors to our true potential and find clarity and direction in our lives.

Love Messages
Sometimes circumstances give fear more power to influence. What feels real and true needs acceptance. Love is not manufactured. Love happens.
Fear Is Not A Validation
People hear what you say. People see what you do. But people do not experience your life experiences as you do.
Furthermore, we often dial down or even hide our truth. The deep, core experience dancing in our souls and warming our hearts. For as real as it feels to us, we still try to make sense of it. We question it and doubt it. There are so many reasons why we do this and it all points back to fear.
How much do you reveal in your moment to moment?
We tell people what we think they will accept. We show people what we think they will accept. We surrender to fear. We tell ourselves we have difficult choices to make, but what that really mean is we have tradeoffs to make. The tradeoff is our authenticity for someone else's acceptance. Why? Because we allow fear to be a validation for how we choose to live.
Fear is NOT a validation.

When Fear Knocks
What if you looked at your fears as opportunities? What if your opportunities are your fears in disguise?
Before you jump to the scariness associated with fears, try thinking about them differently. Imagine opportunity whispering to you through your fears. An opportunity is not without unknowns and yet, it feels different because there is a perceived benefit. A fear feels debilitating because the perceived experience is seen as discomfort, pain, or failure.
Pursuing an opportunity reveals more about it. Moving though fear reveals more about YOU.
