Summary

Episode 16: Fear is a natural, evolution-based emotion designed to keep you alive. It makes sense why we run from our problems when we are afraid to confront certain issues. But what happens when that’s ALL you do? What happens to you when you’re always in “flight”? What are we actually avoiding when we refuse to confront a problem? This week Amanda comes out of her flu hallucinations to talk about why we avoid facing our fears, how running away from our problems keeps us right in the same spot we always were, and discusses switching our perception of discomfort into a measure of success.
